Fantastic Keyboard, Fantastic Customer Service

After switching from a 60% mechanical keybeaord to the S98 wireless keyboard, I have been loving the additional numberpad and the clicky tactility of the keybed. Each key press is highly tactile without offering any stickiness or mechanical play. The display and on board controls are intuitive and responsive, and 90% of the keyboards customization functions can be accessed directly from the OLED display and clickable encoder. The battery life is fantastic, frequently going days without needing a charge even with backlight animations playing and constant use. The quickcharge function works extremely well over a compatible USBC charger, and is one of the fastest charging devices i've used.

When I first ordered my keyboard, there was a small, barely perceptible but clearly present blemish within the OLED display that shipped with my S98. Given my experience with larger OEM electronics manufacturers, I was expecting a series of hoops to jump through and a lengthly process to recieve assistance. As soon as I raised it to the attention of the customer service of Royal Kludge, they immediately offered to send me a replacement free of charge. I cannot say enough good things about how they stand behind their products, and how comfortable their keyboards are to use everyday. I thought that I would just use this keyboard for productivity, CAD, and emails, but it has proved indispensible to long gaming sessions as well with its crisp responsive keys.

Very pleased with this, my first mechanical keyboard. I immediately noticed the weight difference from my previous membrane keyboard, so I felt the quality difference right away.

I got the linear keys, and they have just the right amount of sound for my setting to use at home or at work. The typing is very smooth, and I enjoy the feedback I get.

The RGB colors are bright and crisp, and there are a lot of options for different color patterns, there is even one that syncs with the music. The screen is a nice add on, and I enjoy putting some gifs on there for fun.
