    Tri-Mode Connectivity with 6000mAh Large Battery

    The RK R87 Pro supports three connection modes: Bluetooth, 2.4GHz wireless, and USB-C wired. Whether you're gaming or working, switch seamlessly between devices for ultimate convenience. Equipped with a massive 6000mAh battery, this keyboard can last up to 570 hours of continuous use with RGB off, ensuring long-lasting performance for extended gaming sessions or workdays.

    Wide Compatibility & Multi-Device Connectivity

    In Bluetooth mode, connect the RK R87 Pro to up to three devices simultaneously and switch between them effortlessly using the Fn+Q/W/E key combination. Compatible with Windows, Mac, and Android systems, this keyboard is versatile and ready to meet all your connectivity needs without limitations.

    Pre-Lubed Matcha and Light Gray Linear Switches for Smooth Typing

    The RK R87 Pro offers two pre-lubed linear switch options: Matcha Switches and Light Gray Switches , each designed for optimal smoothness and durability. The Matcha Switch features a lighter 42±5g actuation force, while the Light Gray Switch provides a slightly firmer 45±10g actuation force. Both switches offer a consistent 3.4±0.4mm actuation travel and are rated for an impressive 50 million keystrokes, ensuring long-lasting performance.

    75% Compact Layout & Gasket-Mounted Design

    The RK R87 Pro combines a 75% compact layout with a fully gasket-mounted structure, offering both space efficiency and a superior typing experience. The 87-key layout saves 25% of desk space, giving you more room for mouse movement while keeping essential function keys within reach. The gasket design, along with multiple layers of sound-absorbing materials like poron foam and a PET bottom pad, minimizes vibrations and reduces typing noise.

    Detachable & Customizable Knob for Ultimate Control

    The RK R87 Pro features a detachable CNC metal knob, allowing you to easily adjust volume by rotating it clockwise or counterclockwise and mute/unmute the sound by pressing it. This knob is fully customizable and can be replaced with a regular key, giving you the flexibility to personalize your keyboard setup to suit your needs. Whether used for multimedia control or custom key functions, the knob enhances both convenience and functionality.

    Vibrant RGB Backlighting with Side-Printed PBT Keycaps

    Designed with side-printed PBT keycaps, the R87 Pro offers a clean and minimal aesthetic while delivering exceptional durability. The south-facing LEDs enhance the brightness of the vibrant RGB backlighting, providing a visually stunning experience that complements any gaming setup. Customize your backlight with various modes and colors to match your mood or game.

    QMK/VIA Programmability for Full Customization

    Take your customization to the next level with QMK/VIA support, allowing you to remap keys, create macros, and customize RGB lighting easily. This open-source software lets you tailor the keyboard to your preferences, providing a highly personalized gaming and working experience that suits your style.

    Sleek keyboard with blank faced keys

    This is a well-built, sleek keyboard with blank face keys. Full N-key rollover. Not a huge fan of linear switches but they work ok with this keyboard. The rgb looks ok but flows kind of quick for me. I love the inclusion of a volume knob. The double shot keycaps feel hefty and the overall construction of this keyboard is solid. Pretty good keyboard though I'm not sure I'd want to use it for gaming and I prefer more tactile switches for typing. I guess too thick for gaming, switches not great for typing.

    Smooth and silky

    I like this little keyboard!

    The 75% size is perfect unless you are a recreational Excel user, and the linear keys are smooth without being overly loud! I'm sure that the person 3 classrooms down needs to hear me typing, but I love this!

    QMK/VIA Support, tri-mode and a poppy sounding keyboard

    My pros of this R87 from Royal Kludge are
    * QMK/VIA support
    * Tri-mode with wired type C/2.4Ghz and Bluetooth
    * 6000mAh battery
    * Hotswap pcb sockets
    * RGB for the win
    * Removeable rotary encoder knob that can be substituted with a switch
    * Compatible with Win/Mac/Android/Linux/Tablets/Gaming consoles
    * Pretty thick walled PBT keycaps
    * Gasket mount for a softer typing experience
    * Connection to 3 devices via Bluetooth simultaneously
    * TKL space saving keyboard
    * South facing LEDs
    * Great User Guide easy to read and understand
    * Easy to read toggle switches, magnetic housing for the 2.4G dongle and kick stand feet
    * RGB on the right and left sides of the case that look awesome too
    I know some are not fond of the front printed legend keycaps but these are the best I have seen from any other board on the market. They outshine the competition literally, bravo Royal Kludge because I love these.
    Critiques of the R87 would be that the stabilizers on the space bar are not great and I will be fixing that to quiet the rattling. The stabs are plate mounted and not loose at all but the lube is the issue. Then after that I will put some bits of foam in the space bar itself because it sounds pretty nasty and hollow. Not in the least bit appealing.
    I honestly could not find any other problems with the R87 other than the space bar and it's stabilizer. The wireless dongle and Bluetooth worked perfectly well and connected without fuss, the lag was not noticeable using 2.4Ghz and my connection was reliable and stable.
    I will say I'm not a huge fan of these matcha switches but I can swap them out to switches I prefer. The matchas are not bad at all, the lube is done properly and they are not pingy but the sound profile is just not what I like. I am on the very quiet to silent team in switch preference but others may love the poppy sound.
    Do I recommend the Royal Kludge R87 Pro? You bet I do! 5 stars all day every day and I don't even care that it's plastic because it is easier to travel with.
