The Royal Kludge RK G68 isn’t perfect but offers so much for its pricepoint of 2800 pesos or 56 USD. You get a keyboard with excellent build, performs great on wireless and packs features you’ll normally find on more expensive keyboards like tri-mode connection, 2 USB passthroughs, an aluminum plate, removable bezel and 5pin hotswap sockets. Whether you decide to get into modding or not, the RK G68 is a solid 65% keyboard to grab if you’re after something that offers the best value for your money.

This is my 3rd mechanical keyboard, torn between this and Tecware B68, and glad that I chose G68. The 2.4ghz is way better than Bluetooth, it's hassle-free! My only gripe is the wired mode, as I kept getting 'USB device not recognized.' That's the only major flaw I experience with it. I also wish that the on/off etc switches are on the sides not at the bottom for easy access. The greatest strength of the G68 is the battery life, it's superb! Been 3 days since I bought mine and I haven't charged it even once. Overall would rate this KB 8/10 (9/10 if wired mode works fine)
@KonzTech 2 жыл бұрын
Once they polish up the software and release an official one on their website, an update should hopefully be able to fix the USB issue. I honestly did not experience it or maybe because I have not been on wired mode for the most part. I just plug in the wire when it's time to charge. And yes, the 2.4Ghz wireless connection is what really sold me to this keyboard. I would actually buy the B68 but when this one came to my shopee feed and saw the specs... I immediately added it to cart lol

Just charge it using the USB-C cable included and connect it to your PC. It automatically goes on wired mode when plugged in(at least from my experience). Otherwise, you can switch to your desired mode(the manual would explain it) or just flip the switch off. If the switch is off and the keyboard is connected to the computer, then it goes on wired mode.

Great review. May I ask, what bluetooth version does your model have? The variant sold on amazon is bt 5.1, but it also doesn't come with the detachable frame and can only switch between 3 devices as opposed to 5. I'm wondering if theres any advantage to buying from amazon rather than somewhere else (if the only advantage amazon has is better bluetooth id still take it).
@KonzTech 2 жыл бұрын
I think it's 5.0...sorry I'm not really sure how to tell it since it was not specified in the specsheet or anywhere on the box when I bought this. I believe the ones in Amazon(US and European regions) are different from the ones here in SEA. So far I think the only one with the removable frames are the ones from SEA.

Hi, how long does the RK G68 usually takes before fully charge? My keyboard only last one whole day with a level lower from the max brightness of RGB. I tried charging this last night but didn't really know if it was already full. I just unplugged it since the battery feels a bit hot already after 2 to 3 hrs of charging. Hope you could answer me regarding this query thank you and nice review btw 👏 More power!
@KonzTech Жыл бұрын
About 2-3 hours. If you've been using the keyboard the whole day(20+ hours) like it doesn't turn off at all then that's normal. It also depends on the RGB setting you use. More flashy, moving effects tend to eat more battery as opposed to steady single color settings.

@KonzTech 2 жыл бұрын
It really depends on what you want to achieve and if you plan on customizing in the future. Both keyboards have their pros and cons. Tecware has great stock feel than the G68...but it's more expensive too. The RK G68 has the upper hand when it comes to wireless performance because obviously 2.4Ghz wireless connection is superior to bluetooth. If you intend to game wirelessly, then the RK G68 is the best option...with the perks of potential mods in the future. If you want a great feeling keyboard out of the box, then the B68.

@KonzTech 2 жыл бұрын
Bluetooth - keyboard pairs with a bluetooth receiver(on your PC/laptop/phone/tablet) - low power consumption 2.4Ghz wireless connection - the 2.4ghz dongle(USB) plugs to PC/laptop. The keyboard communicates to it and sends the signal to the PC/laptop. Has lower latency compared to bluetooth since it's a 1:1 dedicated connection and it can accomdate higher bandwidth - high power consumption but offers much better performance. This is the same tech used in wireless gaming mice

They're pretty much the same..However, note that some regions have different make. The one reviewed here is from the SEA market(bought from Shopee/Lazada).

The older releases don't have passthroughs though so double check with the seller or the item description before purchasing.

B68 has better stock typing performance than any RK keyboard. The new RK keyboards like this one outshines the B68 on features(tri-mode connection, USB passthrough and beefy battery). It really depends on what you really want out of your keyboard. If you want the best wireless performance then the Royal Kludge keyboards are your best bets because of their 2.4Ghz wireless connection. If you want the best stock typing feel, then B68.

Try to flip the switch to off and see if it helps. This appears to be an ongoing issue with Royal Kludge keyboards. Sometimes even if it's fully charged, the indicator still stays red and you will have to power cycle your computer a couple of times for it to go away. I also notice that but it seems to go away when I flip the switch off.

I hear it's completely random. Some people in my group also get that. I prefer the white backplate coz it reflects more RGB.

Hello, Sir! I find your videos very useful. Can I ask? Which one is better? G68 or RK84? This will be my first mechanical keyboard if ever. Thank you, Sir.
@KonzTech 2 жыл бұрын
RK84 if you feel like you badly need dedicated F-keys. Otherwise, G68 since it's more compact and looks nicer(for me haha). They pretty much perform the same..just different layouts.

hi, how do we know this keyboard is charging? ive plugged it in to the wall socket and all I can see just the "Q" keeps on blinking, and how do I know if its fully charged?
@KonzTech 2 жыл бұрын
Ohhh noooo..Don't plug it in to the wall socket. The current's too strong and you might burn your PCB. Just plug it through your computer's port. The blinking Q means it's trying to pair to a bluetooth device. There will be a red LED indicator under the spacebar when it's charging and that should ideally go away when it's fully charged or if you turn off the keyboard and just go on wired mode. Sometimes, it doesn't go away though even if it's fully charged...a common issue with Rk keyboards from my experience.

I'd still go with the RK G68 because of the features(tri-mode, USB passthrough, 5pin hotswap sockets) and overall modability. K530 beats it out in stock looks but as a keyboard enthusiast, you're likely going to mod keyboards anyway so better get something you can easily mod with nice features :)

@KonzTech 2 жыл бұрын
For me it takes about 2 hours. It doesn't matter really. Lithium Ion batteries used on keyboards and mice don't suffer from overcharging. Unfortunately, the keyboard does not indicate when it's fully charged...unless you check on the software or on your PC indicator(if paired via bluetooth). Maybe this can be resolved with a firmware update someday.
