The Redragon Caraxes Pro SE K644 is also a great choice for typists. The keys are very smooth to type on, and they have a good amount of travel. The keyboard is also very quiet, so you won’t disturb anyone else in the room.
There’s a wireless mini USB receiver for desktops and laptops and Bluetooth v5.0/V3.0 for various handhelds and laptops. With its onboard rechargeable battery, you won’t need to worry about replacing the cells when the power is low. And if you still do, you can instantly switch to USB-C wired connection which will recharge those batteries while you continue gaming. And what’s even crazier are the hotkeys that light up the entire top row of keys to indicate the battery level from 10% to 100%.
Keeping ergonomics for gaming on the highest priority, the Caraxes features hot-swappable linear RED mechanical switches that can not only support OUTEMU, but all 3/5-pin switches on the market. Thanks to the unique and exclusive structure design of the key sockets, switch mounting/swapping is now a lot easier, and there’s lower key wobbling too. Backlit with individual 16.8m RGB LEDs which are controlled by Redragon’s proprietary software, and the unique combination of cream, grey, and orange keys, this keyboard can instantly turn heads around, while you keep them engrossed in your key skills.
Battery Life
Battery life is decently good from my experience. Redragon states that if you use backlighting you’ll get 30 hours of battery life and 120 hours of battery life if you don’t use backlighting. I only tested it with backlighting on and the battery life was slightly better than they stated as I managed to get 32 hours of battery life on two different occasions.
To check to see how much battery life is left, Redragon offers a quick and easy way for you to check by simply pressing the FN + Space buttons at the same time. This will light up the number row according to how much charge is left. If the 1 and 2 numbers are the only ones lit up, then it’s low battery life. If all numbers are lit up, then you have a full charge. You can look at the images below to understand better how it works.
