Redragon K585 DITI Wired One-Handed RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, 42 Keys Type-C Professional Gaming Keypad w/Upgraded Hot-Swappable Socket, 7 Onboard Macro Keys & Detachable Wrist Rest

Casual PC gamer. Play on a ROG Laptop. This is a serious upgrade.Mostly play games like Sons of the Forest or Dying Light at the moment. Lots of keyboard action in the form of WASD, and the nearby keys get a lot of attention. This keyboard is excellent, especially when you play at a desk or like myself in an arm chair!It comes with a magnetic detachable wrist support that is able to be flexed on uneven surfaces. The G and T Are larger. The edge of the board lets it sit almost perfectly with the edge of a laptop. For me it has a natural position that feels better than a normal keyboard. Plus for a laptop set up it is less cumbersome than the full keyboard being juxtaposed to the fixed keyboard. 10/10 would recommend.My only complaint is the W does not have a marker for identifying it. Not a big deal I took a knife and made an “x” mark and good to go.Thought it was a dumb idea at first glance but now that I have it I can’t live without it!

So I have to say, this thing is pretty cool. The build quality is surprisingly very sturdy with relatively heavy plastic. The Blue Switch keys sound great and press well. The magnetic palm rest is really nice. The extra USB port is handy.Couple things to note about the product. The cord is USB C into the keyboard and USB A into your PC. You can program the 7 macro keys (G1-G5, ~ and T) by using the keyboard itself (though only with keys that already appear on this left-handed keyboard), OR you can download software from manufacturer's website that allows you to program ALMOST every key (FN key, Rec key, and maybe one or two others excluded). This latter software method is good if you want to reprogram any of the normal letter keys or if you want to program a key to use a key NOT on this keyboard already (example: Windows key or Enter or any right-side characters or arrow keys). There are 4 layers or modes you can have (accessed via the M1-4 keys), so you can theoretically have a 4 sets of keys programmed. You can set the RGB LED color setting for each layer/mode as a visual clue for what layer/mode you're active on, which is really handy. It does not have a Windows key, which I wish it did, but using the software method you can program another key to be the Windows key (though unfortunately you can't reprogram the FN key for this purpose). The size of the keyboard is larger than I expected, but it's good. The optional key re-programming software is decent. The bottom space key is easily accessible for my thumb. The right top G1 key, though, is not so comfortable for thumb press and I'll need to use my index finger for that one. The top right key (right of F4) is the m character (though a few programs read it like an F5) and I guess has special meaning in some games or something.Overall, this is really quite nice. It can easily be used as a macropad or shortcuts-specific extra keyboard too, which is cool. Have to say, the ~$30 spent on it seems well worth it.

I was in the market for a 1 handed gaming keyboard but having hotswappable switches was a big selling point for me. I originally wanted the Razer one with the analog, but after learning that was mecha-mechanical, I decided that the $100 price tag was not worth it.I picked this up open box for $22 with the blue switches and had the intention of swapping the switches and keycaps out since I had some spare from when I built my main keyboard, and this did not disappoint!The G keys have low profile switches in them, so those are still blues but they are not as annoying as blues typically are. This keyboard especially for the price is excellent as a one handed gaming pad and you can remap any of the keys/rgb with the software.It is bigger than other gaming pads I’ve seen out there, but this is a good mix of function versus size. You can really cram a lot on here.In my opinion, the standard keycaps look very cheap with the red dragon font, but it’s very easy to transform this board into something sleek and high end looking. It feels good with its plastic chassis but does suffer from slight key wobble, especially on the space bar and G1 key. The wrist rest is butt ugly and has the word “GAMING” etched into it and is made of cheap plastic that attaches to the main board with 2 magnets. More on how to customize your own wrist rest below.Again, for ~$30 you really can’t complain. That’s my only con.Overall if you are on the market for a 1 handed gaming keyboard, this should check all of the boxes. From its upgradability to its versatility, red dragon has knocked it out of the park with this one.**I customized my wrist rest thanks to another review I saw before purchasing. I took an old mousepad, separated its fabric from the padding and then using Gorilla spray glue, evenly coated the top and side surfaces as well as the fabric I was using. I then draped it over and applied pressure with books to give it a nice flat finish. I tucked the excess fabric over the edges and screwed the bottom plate back in place (stripping a few of the standoffs in the process.) I then glued it with E6000 to ensure it doesn’t come loose while in use. It came out pretty good and I’m not a very crafty person!
