Redragon S101-3 PRO Gaming Keyboard and Mouse, RGB Backlit Programmable Keyboard Mouse with Software, Independent Macro Record Keys, Value Combo Set, New Update Version

I'd never had wireless keyboards or mice until recently. Wanting to get away from "wire spaghetti" on my desk made getting a set a logical choice. The first one I bought was from SABLUTE, yeah, I hadn't heard of it either but it sounded good in the reviews. Within the first day I noticed that the keys were sticking. Within the first week I noticed that the paint on the clear keys for the backlighting was wearing through. I returned it to Amazon. THEN I bought this set. It was a little more pricey but at least it was a brand I could find a real webstore for! Once I received it I charged them completely before trying them out. There was no more sticking keys & so far there's no sign of wear on the keys either. It is a full size keyboard. The mouse is full size as well. (I hate the mini-mice!) The buttons on both the mouse & KB are GREAT. I'm still getting used to adjusting my mouse speed & using the side buttons for going back & forth on my browser. Functionally, I can't complain at all! The build quality is quite obviously superior to the other brand. I have to charge my mouse more than the I do the keyboard but the batteries on both seem pretty good, for the moment. The only downside is that if you use both mouse & KB controls be careful about the keyboard falling asleep. It can take five to ten seconds to reconnect so make sure you toggle keys frequently to keep it awake for if you're going to be gaming with these. The key takeaway is that this KB is of higher quality than the competitor brands here on Amazon, at least compared to the other I tried & is worth the ten or so extra bucks.

This is a wired RGB keyboard and mouse. The illumination is bright enough to see in the daytime. They have some really cool features that are programmable and a decent cycle of color exchanges. The mouse and keyboard have preset funcionality, and the mouse has selective dpi presets that are pretty good. The price for what you get was outstanding and I'm sure that there is some actual RBG customization if you play around with some programs. Overall, a great starter kit, a stocking stuffer, or just a nice refresh for a gaming setup. And I mean, come on.... Red Dragon? Say less! Lol

Seems to be very high quality. The keyboard is weighty, and the keys perfectly balanced for a nice tactile feedback. The mouse also is well designed, and has perfect response pressure. The mouse connected to the receiver instantly. I struggled with the keyboard connecting wirelessly......... until I CAREFULLY read the instructions. I kept substituting the USB connector (cable) for the USB receiver. Turn on the keyboard BEFORE you plug in the receiver dongle. It won't connect if you turn the keyboard on after the dongle is plugged in. I had to fidget with it til I read the instructions carefully and got the order of operations correct. I'm using the 2.4gHz wireless connection for both keyboard and mouse. Distance from my table with mouse and keyboard to the computer with dongle receiver is about 10 feet. The computer is what drives my main 65" 4k television in the living room. BTW, I am not a gamer, but gaming equipment seems to be optimized for better performance. I don't yet know how long a battery charge lasts, but being rechargeable is a major plus in my opinion. Having lived with this keyboard and mouse for a few months, I find the battery charge in the mouse needs to be recharged fairly frequently. The keyboard and mouse will respond quickly with the computer. HOWEVER, having said that, they both go to "sleep" if not used for a couple minutes apparently to save the battery charge, and you have to wait a few seconds after striking a key, or moving the mouse, for them to wake up and reconnect. I'm used to not having to do that, so I think the rechargeable batteries inside these devices must be very small. It isn't really a big issue, once you get used to it, but I do find it annoying a bit. In the upper right hand corner of the keyboard are LED's labeled 1, A, and M. When the "1" is lit red, the keyboard is connected. Several month followup : I am retiring this keyboard and mouse. The reason ?? The delay reconnecting after it goes to sleep. I will be looking for a different setup. It works great WHILE it's connected, but the keyboard goes to sleep really fast, and it takes a few seconds for it to wake up and reconnect. This process has become annoying enough that I want something better.

Pros, 1. I got this on a Prime Day sale for 20% off. 2. This can be connwct either through Bluetooth, 2.4 wireless or through USB ports. 3. It's rechargeable so you don't have to constantly buy new batteries. 4. Being a Bluetooth I can run my keyboard and mouse without any wires or interference from other devices since it's not on the same frequency. 5. It's ARGB and great for using at night. 6. The mouse is good and the DPI is great for better responsiveness. Cons, 1. IMO are the keyboard feels mushy and the battery life isn't the best. I feel if you use this often you should recharge both the keyboard and mouse over night after using. 2. This keyboard doesn't seem to work until you enter Windows. I have a use a separate USB keyboard if I want to access my BIOS.

Nothing special but I just wanted something to play aoe2 on PS5. It was the cheapest combo on Amazon and gets the job done. No complaints.

I bought this combination, expecting it to work out of the box. The Keyboard is beautiful and does a fine job of working for what I intend it for. The mouse... No spring back for either left or right mouse buttons. I am a little more than peeved at seeing this obvious factory issue make it all the way to my doorstep. Still mulling over what to do - I may send this back. Poor quality control. Update: On closer inspection, the mouse had been misaligned at the factory and the top and bottom pieces of the mouse body were not aligned correctly. I watched a video on YouTube for this mouse as to how to disassemble and reassemble the mouse and after a few minutes I had the mouse repaired. I *WILL* be covering this on my YouTube channel since I plan to review this combo set. One more item: Redragon makes it VERY clear that software is included with this package. It is most certainly NOT. And they go to great lengths to hide the software from the end user. I have found what I believe to be the software links, but plan to test before I share them here. I will bump up the review one notch if the package works out well over the long haul, but given the mouse issue right out of the gate and the promised software NOT being in the box plus the poor web site support to find the program, I cannot reasonably give Redragon a 5 star rating until these items are corrected. Update: December 2019 - I was able to correct all the issues with that first mouse and the software works just fine. I've since bought this combination of mouse and keyboard 3 more times and had no issues. This truly is a great keyboard/mouse combination and I've made it a standard setup on the 3 gaming systems I've built to date. Software is indeed on their website but it is a little strange to find - The mouse is on the website as "Redragon M601-3 CENTROPHORUS 3200 DPI Gaming Mouse " and has two downloadable executables - The Windows 10 version works just fine. I rarely run the software since it works fine without it but it is nice to be able to change the mouse parameters if needed.

I picked up the Redragon S101 combo back in 2021, and honestly, I wasn't expecting much. I've gone through my fair share of keyboards and mice, and they always seem to give out after a year or two. But this Redragon set? It's still going strong! For the price, you get a really solid keyboard and mouse. The RGB backlighting is a nice touch, and you can customize it to your liking. It's not just flashy; it's actually useful in low-light conditions. The keyboard itself is comfortable to type on, even for long sessions. The keys have a nice tactile feel, and they're surprisingly quiet. The wrist rest is a welcome addition, especially for those marathon gaming nights. The mouse is equally impressive. It's ergonomic and fits comfortably in my hand. The adjustable DPI settings let me fine-tune the sensitivity to my preference, and the programmable buttons are a handy feature. It's refreshing to find a gaming combo that doesn't break the bank and actually lasts. It's clear that Redragon put some thought into the design and build quality. If you're looking for a reliable and affordable gaming keyboard and mouse, the S101 is a fantastic choice. 5 stars, and a big thumbs up for longevity!

Keyboard: PROS: This keyboard looks very nice. It's very sleek, modern, and has that "gaming" feel some might anticipate when buying a good keyboard for gaming. It also has some very nice features. The RGB customization, while not exhaustive, is a nice touch for what you're paying. You can adjust the RGB pattern, the brightness, and the frequency of the selected pattern (e.g., how fast or slow colors "flow" across the keyboard). The keyboard is pretty much just plug-and-play. No complicated setup. For what you pay, it's not bad for what it is. CONS: Right off the bat, I noticed that some of the keys aren't very responsive. When playing games, the W key has to be pressed all the way down with almost full pressure in order to activate. I noticed this when playing an online RPG with some friends. During an intense battle, no issues (likely because the adrenaline causes me to put more pressure on the keys during said battles). But when traversing the landscape between locations (at which point I was much more relaxed), I would often be walking along, and then my character would just stop moving for a couple of seconds. As I leaned forward to figure out what was happening, my character began moving again. So, with the key still fully pressed down, I simply released some of the pressure I was putting on the key and my character stopped, again. I've also noticed that when typing up documents, I often have to go back and make corrections because certain keystrokes didn't register, and it's not just the W key. This could be related to the fact that the keyboard utilizes membrane switches, which aren't always the most responsive and aren't made to last as long as mechanical or magnetic switches. Membrane keyboards also tend to be much cheaper than their superior alternatives. Along with the fact that this keyboard is made entirely out of plastic, it perfectly explains the cost of this mouse/keyboard combo. A perfect example of "you get what you pay for." Mouse: PROS: The adjustable weights in the removeable chamber on the bottom of the mouse is a nice touch. I love a mouse with a DPI button to adjust the DPI in an instant as needed. This has that. There's also a program from Redragon on their website that allows you to customize and adjust the mouse's lighting effects and frequency. It's permanently red, but you can adjust whether or not the mouse stays a solid red, has a breathing effect, how fast it "breathes," etc. All you need to download the correct software is your particular mouse's model number. If you're not sure of the model number, there are also pictures of the products on each model so that you can search and find the correct one that you have. The mouse is very responsive and works well. It also makes a very nice click noise when clicking the left and right mouse buttons. I don't know about you, but I like my mouse to click when used. Never been a fan of the silent, soft button-press mouse that leaves you wondering if you actually double clicked on the desktop icon or not as you ask yourself why it's taking so long for it to load up. CONS: Even with all the weights in it, the mouse still feels a bit light. I would prefer a heavier mouse that would require me to remove a few weights to make it lighter to suit me. The plastic it's made out of also feels relatively cheap, but this is not a big issue for me. That's about it. OVERALL: Not a bad mouse and keyboard for what you pay. Very unfortunate that all of the keys aren't perfectly responsive on the keyboard. My recommendation would be to save up and spend a little bit more money and get a nicer mouse and a mechanical or magnetic keyboard, both of which have much better responsiveness and life longevity than membrane keyboards.
