Redragon S101 Wired Gaming Keyboard and Mouse Combo RGB Backlit Gaming Keyboard with Multimedia Keys Wrist Rest and Red Backlit Gaming Mouse 3200 DPI for Windows PC Gamers (Black)

Great combo for an avid gamer/YouTuber

This is a top-of-the-line keyboard and gaming mouse from a specialist company, I was shocked to see it at this price. It types very smooth and clear, the type noise isnt loud yet still has that comforting sound. The controls for the colors, patterns etc are incredible, lots of variety and mixes. The mouse is also great, feels just right and feels very smooth in games, also very comfortable for long office hours, same for the keyboard. Must buy in my opinion, this is a rare bargain.

Its true that you get what you pay for. I bought this keyboard/mouse set after buying another set for $20.99 on Amazon made by ChonChow (see my 3 stars review there for that) - I almost regretted that purchase because there were more negatives than positives about that keyboard and finally bought this RedDragon after my cat chew through the Chonchow keyboard usb cord last week. I now wrap my usb cords with aluminum foil - read that cats dont like to chew on aluminum foil. The RedDragon costs about 1/3 more than ChonChow but its definitely at least a 1/3 better in build quality and so much easier/more a pleasure to use (keys and typing feels smooth, solid and not too noisy). First, the negatives - (1) only the mouse usb cord is nicely braided (sturdy) and gold plated. wish the keyboards usb cord had the same quality build. (2) once your PC wakes from hibernate, the keyboard goes back to the factory default setting for breathing rainbow lights mode. It should not do this, it should simply go back to whatever lighting mode you had it before the computer went to sleep. (3) please add the ability to also turn off the mouses light, and the lights for both the keyboard and mouse will go to sleep/auto sleep when they are not use for a period of time (like over 10 minutes), or when you put the PC to sleep. (4) the instruction booklet is VERY minimal - the bare bones way they tell you how to change lighting effect etc. any non expert keyboard gamer would have trouble figuring out. How do you interpret <1>FN+DEL? Do you actually need to press the <? etc.? (5) this was shipped to me in its box, unprotected by an outer Amazon box, which is a little worrisome since the mail service can sometimes be rough with packages, and theres not much protecting the keyboard inside except one thin layer of bubble wrap (mine was fine but Im sure others may get damaged boxes). The GOOD - Reasonable price for overall quality build ($30 for keyboard, mouse and mouse bad). LONG usb cords for mouse and keyboard (they say its 5 feet long but seems +6feet!). As you can see from my ChonChow keyboard review, their claim of 5 feet is rather short and barely could reach from the desk directly below to the PC under the desk. The ReDragon cords are more than enough to go the distance - very happy about usb cords length. Like the ability to change lighting colors and effects, especially brightness levels, and even simply turning off the keyboards light. If it continues to work fine in the coming months, would definitely buy again!

Bought for entry level gaming for my son. Overall the quality/comfort is good for the price. Keyboard LEDs are preset colors and cant be customized. Great starter keyboard and mouse.

I bought the keyboard + mouse set as an upgrade from my previous keyboard. I had an old emachines keyboard that I dearly loved, but the print has worn off many keys and some of the keys take considerable pressure to function, so it was time to upgrade. I will be using this for coding and extensive word processing, not gaming, so thats what this review is based on. Mouse: The mouse is nice. Its got a nice weight. The texture on the buttons gives it a good feel. It glides on the mousepad well with no skips. Its plug-and-play, although you need the driver in order to program the extra buttons. (see below) I havent used the DPI switch, since I wont need this for my work. The funny little contour points at the back end of the mouse are quite handy for moving the mouse around when selecting large amounts of text. No noticeable delay between click and computer response. Keyboard: The keyboard is ok. Im kind of a banger when it comes to typing (I press hard on the keys as I type.) But this keyboard makes considerably less noise than my last keyboard... much softer sound and keypress (if that makes any sense). I was hoping to have the static rainbow illumination for the backlight, but havent figured out how to do that yet. (see below) My biggest complaint is that its missing the little notches on the J key that I used to use to orient my fingers when I begin typing. It has a notch on the F and the 5 on the tenkeys area, but not on the J. Instructions: This is where this set really fails. A very thick booklet is included with this set, but dont get excited. Most of the book is translations. Theres only about 3-5 pages of instructions, in very small print (I needed to get a magnifier to read them!), and the instructions arent complete. The instructions could be written with more clarity about how to change colors, and the website for downloading drivers isnt even listed. AND when you do Google-search and find the website, youll find that the model number on the booklet (and mouse & keyboard) isnt the same as the one on the website. (If you read the Q&A for this item, youll see what I mean.) Overall, the instructions are the worst problem with this item. If you can get beyond this, its not a bad set for the price. Definitely makes you feel like you spent more than you did for the set. :)

While my friends always made fun of me for buying cheap $15 mouse and keyboards I could have been buying this set all along. My theory has always been why would I pay $50+ for a mouse and keyboard that I will just break or replace in a years time, just to have fancy RGB lighting, when I can get a basic one that suits my needs for a sliver of the price. I was right, but wrong! You can have both. This set is the same price as buying a basic (walmart ie...) type mouse or keyboard for the same price, and you get the flashy RGB. The mouse even has a DPI option which you wont find with most basic mouses out there. It looks great, for me they are also both comfortable and fits my fingers well. The keyboards RGB is easy to figure out, but the mouse is a little different. It defaults with red and while some say you can download software to change this, I have seen others say its only red in this model. I have yet to do so as Im fine with the red. The mouse software is listed under a different model number on the manufacturers website, so keep that in mind if you care enough to go hunt it down and try it out. They provide no link to this or point you in the direction of it within the actual products box or manual. Regardless of that, for $30 you really cant go wrong....

Worked well

Keyboard works great. I have serious insomnia, and love it for typing while my wife is asleep. Didnt include instructions on adjusting color, and action. Defaults to scrolling colors, and is pretty annoying, but you can switch to single colors. Just looked it up on YouTube. Nice feel, and reasonable sound. Didnt use the mouse. Keeping it for a spare. Hoping it lasts!

Great keyboard and mouse makes gaming seamless

Love the colors, functionality is perfect. At about a year though, buttons started failing.
