HK Gaming GK61 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - 61 Keys Multi Color RGB Illuminated LED Backlit Wired Programmable for PC/Mac Gamer (Gateron Optical Silver, Prism Pink)

I have been using this keyboard for over a month now I believe. And from my limited experience i can safely comment on a few thingsPackaging - Ok the packaging for this is pretty shady lol. My box was all dinged up, the sticker that is supposed to hold it close was open and lost all it's adhesive :) But regardless, inside the keyboard was pretty safe and hadn't moved or been damaged at allBuild - Sturdy build with no loose parts or rattling' - Aluminum switch plate feels premium and gives a good feel - Keycaps are decent, not the best but didn't expect them to be. I would suggest upgrading to PBT keycaps as this board is pretty much build to be customized. - Cable is of decent quality as well, so is the keycap puller and switch puller - This keyboard also says "pre lubed" like every other mechanical keyboard lol, but it's very minimal and has no effect on the sound/feel even if you wipe it off. I recommend lubing them on your own. I would recommend Petreplus 2700 if you're not looking to spend 5k on 10grams of krytox205g0 lol. I have a review on the lube too, and in my experience, it's a good lube if used correctly.Switches - I have the brown switches. Good, fast, smooth, and sound if very pleasing as well. - Again, pRe lUbEd, so wipe that stuff off, and lube them yourself, that will just elevate the experience.Cons - The PCB and switch plate sit very deep into the case, which is good for sturdiness and security, but then if you want to add foam to your keyboard, that would be a bit difficult. Maybe i didn't do it right, but thats my experience. - The software is janky AF. HK gaming really needs to focus on this, otherwise, their brand image will never be able to get better as their software feels like something from Windows XP. But the keyboard isn't very software dependant, so it isn't much of an issue. There are keys to switch between light modes, but if you want to keep custom lighting then you'll need the software, which is relatively simply to use, even though it looks very very old lol. - This board is a 60% which might be small for a lot of people. I didn't mind it at all, in fact I loved it. I edit videos and photos, and i didn't face any problems, and I love the compact size. But I know most people don't, so listing it here as a con.All in all, I would recommend this board due to its high customizability. You can go for the Keychron V2 hot swap version if you want something bigger than a 60% as well, but this was cheaper than that for me and based on reviews pretty much giving in direct competition as a good budget mechanical keyboardBut I am happy with my decision, hope this helped you in making yours too.

Its only been a few days since i bought this keyboard but so far i love itthe build quality is good even though it is mainly plasticthe key caps are good but the see transparency is not that good and the space bar is a bit wobbly but its still really goodthere are a lot of RGB options but it is not the brightest RGB i have seenthey are pretty loud which i personally prefer them to beIt is quite heavythere is no stand for a raised up use but the keyboard is slightly raisedthere are four rubber feet like things which prevents the keyboard from moving muchthe packaging was good the key board was kept in place with some foam came with a type c cable keycap puller and a switch puller (idk if thats what they are called)the software is really bad and is really hard to get thembut overall as of now i love them will try to update it in the future

The keyboard:Small, yet functional keyboard. Comes with a long (5ft i guess?) Usb-c cable which I was quick to trade with my phone's short charger (life hacks). Per key RGB is plenty good, didn't bother using the software (didn't recognize my keyboard) for custom key mapping. Everyone reviewing mentions that the ABS key caps are frosted (or matt) finish on top and glossy on the sides, but the one I received has all matt finish key caps. I honestly like matt over glossy as glossy gets easily scratched. Also, there is no microphone under the space bar for music synced RGB (some early reviews mentioned they have it), I can't be bothered as I don't use computer speakers anyway.My experience:Despite being all plastic, GK61 has some heft to it. This is my first experience, albeit first in a very long time, with a mechanical keyboard, so I haven't yet gotten accustomed to the nuances of a mech keyboard. Not able to match the typing speed on my Blade 15's keyboard yet, all in time until I develop finger memory. Haven't had issues while gaming (CS:GO mostly), but encountering a lot of errors while typing mostly due to low actuation distance of Gat Silvers and no tactile (pfft, i know right?) feedback on key presses. So, further pressing down the key caps obviously doesn't do anything, but feels quite odd if not pressing keys all the way (idk probably just me as I'm not used to it yet).Minor con:One minor quality issue I have with my keyboard is that the bigger key caps (shift, enter, space bar etc) wobble when you nudge them longitudinally (tangentially to the plane of the keyboard) at key cap ends. My guess is due to cheap quality stabilisers. I'll probably look into upgrading them later on.Future prospects:That's something would great to experiment on this cheap (in comparison) keyboard, modding the insides. My first mod will probably be adding a regular foam inside for a some thoccy-ness (everyone loves thoccy keyboards right?). Followed by stabilisers and then lubrication, perhaps.Tl;dr:- Good enough for a modding journey.- Choose your switches wisely.- Less options for optical switches.Note:Attached photo of my humble desk setup lol! High five Poverty!

I received GK61 with silver switches today for rs 5500. I used this for a week and I can say that this keyboard is absolutely awesome, and smooth. I prefer silver switches than yellow just by a one point difference which is not that big of a deal but yellow and silver switches are just same but silver is quiter. The keycaps are goos but after many months of use, change ur keycaps as they get shinny. Don't think keycaps are low quality but most of the keyboard share the same material. I bought this for gaming and also type but not much. My gameplay improved a lot in valorant. The 60% keyboard makes it easier, lighter and takes less space. For the price of rs 5000- rs 6000, this is a very very good deal. Just buy it you will not regret it.

Love this keyboard. The colour light settings are so fun and I'm happy they are customizable. The clicking noises are just what I wanted. Would repurchase again

This keyboard is amazing ! With the yellow optical switch for that price is the quickest keyboard you can buy! Only cons kinda loud but you cant go wrong with gaterons switches plus it come with a software very good keyboard in the picture i swap the keycaps with my older one because i like white ahah best keyboard out here recommend

This is my first %60 keyboard I like it i already started changing key caps and things I got the rest the set just wanted to use played some valorant and its great sounds great too won't find a better one for $70

Swapped this out for my Ducky one2 never touched my ducky since, shipped quicker than expected, the only flaw I see is the stabs are loose out of the box but there plate mounted and switches are hotswapable so bandaid mod was an easy fix can’t wait to lube the stabs and the op yellows

Es una buen teclado mecánico, se siente sólido, llevo un par de días con él. Es basntane cómodo y te ahorra espacio al momento de jugar. Es cómodo para escritura, por el tamaño no lo recomendaría tanto para trabajos en el Excel pero si logras adaptarte podrías lograr hacerlo .
