R108 Whale Blue

I am very impressed with this keyboard. At first I was using it with my daily driver Mac laptop, and it worked just fine. But where it really shines is when I tested it with my Windows work laptop. It worked extremely well with that setup and it even has dedicated shortcut keys above the numpad for locking the screen and opening the calculator. The screen lock one is especially handy for my work laptop because I always lock the screen when I step away from my desk. The spacebar on this board is a little on the noisy side, but it actually sounds very similar to a classic, basic membrane keyboard like I used to use, so it isn't horribly annoying. Also at first I was concerned about this not having adjustable feet, but it just so happens that it sits at the perfect angle on my work desk, so that isn't an issue. The board itself is nice and heavy and sturdy so it has a premium feel to it. I would say the keys sound creamy, and have a decent thock to them. I like to use the wired connection so I am not concerned about battery life. I am really happy that the backlight is great in low light, and I can choose a static purple color! Several other boards I tried before this one didn't have a static purple option, just pink or blue or other colors. Overall I was initially not sure if this was worth $100 but after testing it with my work laptop, I am convinced. I am happy with this purchase. If anything comes up after a few months, I'll write an update.

I wanted to get into mechanical keyboards for the unique typing sound and aesthetic. I work from home and type all day and wanted a nice keyboard without spending a ton of money. I must’ve researched for months looking for the right board and I couldn’t be happier with my choice. What I love: -98 key condensed num pad. Many mechanical keyboards don’t have. The size itself is great too, not too big but not too small either. -all the color light up options are so fun! -typing sound is exactly what I was looking for, it’s a rich thocky sound -it’s a very substantial board, much heavier than I anticipated, in a good way. -materials feel very high end, keys are buttery soft -my office is a dark green, gold, brown color scheme so the brown board was PERFECT. - I like all the different ways to connect to my computer. -price point is perfect, happy with what I paid and what I got. -I wanted a board with the possibility of swapping keys so I love this is an option however I really like how it is! The only thing that’s maybe a minor complaint is when typing the print screen button is directly above/touching the back space button. I often slip and hit that when typing quickly and will initiate the screen grab application which is annoying but that’s partly due to my clumsy fast typing. I’ve had this for a few months now and have had zero issues with it, I’m so glad I bought!

I love this keyboard so much, I spent MONTHS looking and researching for something that fit exactly what I was looking for. The sound is very soft creamy/milky and smooth, not loud and disruptive like a lot of mechanical keyboards tend to be. The keys are very soft, and feel nice on my hands. I started using it first day out of the box and I've had no issues, it types very well with no key sticking or catching. The quality is very good, and the price point shows in the details. The Pros and best parts: - The backlight is fully adjustable. I had to read through the instructions to understand exactly how to change it, but it can flip through a lot of separate lighting modes and about 7 colors. - The sound is mechanical but still very soft and easy to listen to. It's not crunchy or overstimulating the way past keyboards have been. I can use it in the same room as someone sleeping and it wont disturb them, - Wired/wireless settings make it very easy to use and transport - The box came with several replacement keys along with tools for removing the keys and plugs, making it easier to take apart, clean, and perform maintenance on. - The colors are gorgeous, easy to see in both bright and low light. The minor cons -A personal complaint, there's no real way to change the tilt of how high the keyboard sits up. This is a super small complaint, and the angle it's at works very well, I would just prefer it a tiny bit angled further down - The price was something I fought myself on, but I can see WHY it was as expensive as it was. Cheaper mechanical keyboards wear out faster and easier, but the smoothness of this keyboard honestly makes it worth the cost. EDIT: several month update and still 5 stars!! I've had no issues with the keyboard, still using the plastic fitted cover it came with to keep dust off. None of the keys have started to wear down and the sound is still perfect, I could type all day on it. I'm a writer in my spare time, and I almost look forward to going home to my own PC after a long day at work knowing that my set up is comfortable and cozy. I cant say good enough things about how much I love this keyboard.

I have to say that this is the best keyboard I have ever owned by far. Better than all my friend's keyboards as well. Everything about it is awesome except for one thing, and that is that the key's lettering should have been clear so that the rgb would light them up. It is disappointing that they got so much right to the point that I do not want to replace the keycaps, but that leaves me with hard to see symbols at night, hence the 4 stars. If they had keycaps in this color combo with clear lettering I would immediately give this 5 stars. The keyboard feels premium. While not adjustable for incline, I find it to be an extremely comfortable angle. The weight is amazing. Very heavy, and stays put while in use as the rubberized feet are very grippy. The switches and keycaps along with the construction create a typing experience on par with a custom keyboard that would cost twice as much to build by hand. The stabilizers require nothing. It is an extremely quiet keyboard stock. I do like the switches, and was hesitant to replace them as I had originally intended when ordering (facilitated by this being hot swappable), but I did end up buying clicky switches as that's my preference. The switches it came with almost convinced me no to though. Rgb works flawlessly out of the box with no need in my mind for an application on the PC, wireless and wired modes all work great (though I've had better range via 2.4ghz on other keyboards). The ease of use of the bluetooth shines here, switching between 3 different devices with a simple button press. Battery lasts about one or two computer sessions, so somewhere around 8 hours or more for me.

The ROYALAXE R100 Wireless Mechanical Keyboard is a solid choice for anyone seeking a blend of performance, convenience, and aesthetic appeal in their keyboard setup.

Great replacement for my old Redragon keyboard. I love the design of it, I get a smaller type keyboard that still has a 10-key pad. That is the main reason I wanted a new keyboard, my old mechanical one does not have the 10-key pad and being in college, having to take mathematics courses sucked with no number key pad. They keycaps are looking sick af and have a good heft to them, they feel heavy and quality but not so heavy they are detrimental. The casing is plastic but a good quality plastic, thick. Keycap colors are lovely. The switches are not what I am used to, I had browns before this that had a clicky sound, these yellows are quieter and feel just a tad mushy. I didn't think I would like them but after a few days I am used to it and like them. Backlighting is awesome as well. Overall I would highly recommend this keyboard to anyone looking for a new mechanical keyboard with a satisfying typing experience and quality build. This will last you for years to come, plus it is hotswappable so you can fully customize this bad boy.

My sister bought this keyboard and was raving about it, so I decided to buy it to see what all the hoopla was about. I must say that I really love this keyboard out of the nine (9) mechanical keyboards in my home inventory. The Gateron G Pro 3 switch is springy, almost has a hollow hydraulic acoustic sound when typing which is very satisfying to my ears. Typing on this keyboard gives me a sense of typing on a pillowy cushion! The lower profile (XDA?) keycaps are nicely made and have various PC shortcut functions embedded on various keys making it easy for the user to navigate while using the PC. The body design of the Royal Axe R100 keyboard is also quite unique compared to other keyboards on the market. It has a streamlined body making it compact for smaller desks and the golden dial (tri-mode connection) provides an elegant aesthetic look. Overall, this keyboard is worth every penny compared to other mechanical keyboards in it's class and its priced lower making it an exceptional deal!

I bought this keyboard Jan. 18 2025...and today on Feb 18, 2026, one month out of the warranty period, the know has stopped working. I can no longer choose imputs or turn off the keyboard. I can't recommend it, because others have reported the same problem in the same time frame. This is a one-year keyboard. Super disappointing.
