Review: Sound and Build - the sound is a bit louder and clicker than i expected but as a keyboard it feels very good the build quality doesn't feel cheap and it doesn't move easily either overall a very good keyboard but it is not my type of keyboard only because of the sound. Outside of that i don't see issues with it Review: Awesome touch with the ability to upload GIFs onto the little display screen! Just be weary that the software that you have to source yourself for the KB controls is a little funny, albeit, fully functional. If you want to be able to fully customise everything without connection issues, unplug your BT dongle first, wire the KB up and then you can change stuff in the software.

Beautiful design, awesome keyboard! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by P***Z on 7 June 2025* Let me start by saying I am not a gamer and I didn't buy this for the gaming features. That will become evident as you read on! I had my last Logitech keyboard for 5 years and if it was not for the fading keys and subsequent attempts to put stickers over them which all eventually got icky (technical term) and loose for the 2nd time, I would not have bought another keyboard. After much research the first replacement I bought (another manufacturer) came assembled but not quite because you had to change some keys if you were on Windows. After having confirmed it would come assembled, that unnerved me. Never changed a key and didn't want to break the keyboard from the get go. Had to use a magnifier for the directions. Nice board, nice colors, nice feel but not going to work out. So I returned it. Then I decided on this Royal Kludge RK-S98 keyboard. I hesitated because of too much white in the coloring but I was super happy to unbox it, plug the dongle into my computer, it paired right away and I could start typing immediately. I did have to refer to the instructions which I could read without a magnifier to set the clock and turn off the irritating color lights (I know gamers have to be rolling their eyes now if they kept reading my review this far lol ) but other than that everything is self explanatory. It is "missing" a few keys from my old keyboard like "end" but you do function PgDn key and you are at the end. And the front side of the key even says "End" so if you don't remember, it's right there. By the way, the colors really are beautiful if you want a backlit light show and you can adjust them easily. I found this out while finding out how to turn them off completely. The keys are double shot PBT which is supposed to be very effective preventing the letters and numbers from wearing off. Since that was my biggest issue with the Logitech, it was a very important factor in purchasing this one. The sound is nice. It is clicky but not obnoxious. It's easy and a nice sound and there is a Caps Lock Lit indicator which I have missed sorely since I got my last keyboard. But if you want to turn off those lights too you can. I almost forgot to add that there is a hard plastic clear dust cover. I've never seen that before and I do plan to use it. I wish I understood how to get a gif on the screen instead of the clock since my clock is already on my monitor but maybe someday I will play with it. Overall, I am super happy with this. I'll edit my review if things go south but I'm pretty sure this keyboard is home to stay. ## Frequently Bought Together - RK ROYAL KLUDGE S98 Mechanical Keyboard w/Smart Display & Knob, Top Mount 96% Wireless Mechanical Keyboard BT/2.4G/USB-C, Hot Swappable, Software Support, Creamy Sounding, 98 Keys - LOFREE Touch PBT Wireless Mouse with USB Receiver, Bluetooth, Wired Connection, Rechargeable, 4000 DPI with OLED Screen Compatible with Glass Surface for Mac Windows PC Notebook/Block Retro Grey --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/637347921-rk-royal-kludge-s98-mechanical-keyboard-w-smart-display-knob](https://www.desertcart.it/products/637347921-rk-royal-kludge-s98-mechanical-keyboard-w-smart-display-knob) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-05*
