First of all, I purchased this keyboard because I was curious at what the performance would be like. Is it great like those expensive keyboard mechanical keyboard that you can buy on the market? The answer is no, you can't expect a budget mechanical keyboard to compete with those, because they simply are not at the same level. But for less than 40 dollars, I think that this is perfectly fine for what it can offer. My version comes with the outemu red switches because I prefer linear switches; they fit better for the environment that I'm in, and they sound fine (without lubing). However, since outemu switches are basically cherry mx alternatives they are not as great. The cons are:
1/ whenever i press down on a key, I keep hearing the spring, and this is really annoying especially when I have to hear it almost every time I use the keyboard.
2/ Basically, this keyboard can only take outemu switches, so if you think that you can just replace them with cherry mx, you can't.
3/ The cable is not USB type C, it is connected directly to the keyboard, so you cannot remove it.
4/ This last one is not really a con, but the giant red dragon logo located on top of the arrow keys just don't look that great. I have seen videos of people removing this logo online, so do check them out if you also don't like it.
As for the pros, you are in luck, since I think that there are more pros than cons
1/ RGB, for less than 40 bucks, you can get a keyboard that come with many options for rgb lighting, I think that this is the biggest pro so far.
2/ The keycaps are pretty solid, I mean, you can replace them as you wish, but I have seen other budget keyboards that have horrible keycaps; this one comes with solid keycaps so you don't have to worry about that.
3/ The key switches are dust proof, so I think this is also a plus for this keyboard.
4/ The sound: I don't know about the blue version, but these red switches beside the problem with the spring does sound great. Yes, they sound solid, and I would say for people with no experience with mechanical keyboard, you will not be disappointed with this as your choice.
5/ They are pretty light, and I don't know if this is a plus for many people. But for me, this means that I can bring it around to places instead of having it staying on my table 24/7.
What can I say more about this, I'm giving this product a 5 stars for value-wise, but it is not the GREATEST keyboard I've ever typed on, and within this price range, you can only get those membrane keyboards or mechanical keyboards from brands that I wouldn't trust. So yea, do get this keyboard, and if you wonder whether or not to just get the keyboard+mouse combos for gaming; NO, stay away from them, most of them are membrane, this red dragon k552 is far superior even when it doesn't come with a mouse.
Thank you for your attention!
