Tezarre TK61 60% Mechanical Gaming Keyboard with PBT Pudding

The RGB was actually greater than what I thought it was going to be and the response time for every key was very fast. I've tried to find the perfect mechanical keyboard for me over the past year and found it hard to find one that ticked all my boxes but this bad boy is where it's at.It is fast, responsive, and easy to press but can run slightly louder than the Black because of the low operating force required.

The keyboard now has arrow keys, something that could have been a deal-breaker for the TK61, and the most important improvement is the extra ways that you can connect to the keyboard. The only thing I wish it could do, which could be just an oversight by them or I haven't figured out how to properly do it, is that I would like to be able to do what I do on my Logitech keyboard, which would be set keys to specific colors based on what game I'm playing. The Gateron switches (I have the reds) are quite nice, and just adding a little bit of lube will remove the scratchiness sound.Tertiary actions accessible by holding the Fn key (allows you to use the function keys, home, end, pg up, pg down, etc. The lighting comes out nice and bright, but not too bright, and the modes/brightness/speed can easily be adjusted, either through the software (Windows only) or through the keyboard itself.

Well, it’s not only about brown vs red switches, but also a direct comparison between mechanical (GMMK TKL) and optical switches. Be careful when removing any switch because near the screws, they’re a bit difficult to put back, so you may have the surprise of ending up with both the switch and the keycap in your hand after a vigorous tapping session. I chose the red switches because my daily driver, a GMMK TKL, has brown switches and I wanted to check the difference. To enable the first, just plug in the cable and keep the switch from the bottom to Off, the second mode requires that you switch the button to On and that you press the Fn + R combination of buttons (press and hold for 3 seconds). None of these is the absolute best I've seen, but they definitely get the job done and are nice to have come with a keyboard that's not going to break the bank.The only it lacked was the little feets underneath the keyboard to angle it, but to be honest the keyboard was designed just right. Also here, the manufacturer has included an On/Off switch and there is a dedicated hole where you can find the WiFi dongle. The Tezarre TK63 uses Gateron optical switches which are hot-swappable and easy to detach from the board.

I mean you could get around and map other keys (or use some particular combo if you truly need them), but the Tezarre TK63 has made space for them with the compromise of moving the question mark a bit to the right. Still, I am not saying that you can’t mod an optical switches keyboard, it’s just that your options are a tad more limited. After moving through a few (inexpensive) mechanical keyboards, I almost got traumatized by chatter, so knowing that this won’t happen with the Tezarre TK63 is a major selling point.

If you press and hold Fn + Backspace, then some of the keys between 1 and 0 will light up, each corresponding to 10% (for example 1 to 4 means 40% and 1 to 7 means 70% battery is left).
