Womier RD75 Pro Quick Release 75% QMK/VIA Wireless Aluminum Custom Keyboard (4 Colors)

I've only used the keyboard in wired mode and therefore am not aware of any possible issues with wireless.

I've been using the keyboard for the last couple of days and am very impressed with the quality of it. Albeit I haven't used that many different mechanical keyboards in my life and never a gasket mounted one the RD75 is the best keyboard I've ever had by far.

I ordered the anodized silver model. It arrived very quickly as I've ordered express delivery, the keyboard itself arrived in good condition, the keyboard box was put into another box and it had a "do not throw" sticker.

Inside the box there were additional keycaps (cute panda keycap was among them), some white and others of other color, keycap and switch puller, user manual and a generic non braided cable. For me, the non braided cable is the worst thing with this keyboard, but you don't have to use the same cable the keyboard came in so it was not a big issue.

Keyboard itself feels great. It worked right out of the box, didn't need to press anything or do anything, except plugging it in. The full aluminum case is heavy and the keyboard itself feels sturdy. The keycaps look and feel great, the typing feel and sound are really good also. I didn't find it too loud or too difficult to press or anything like that.

The RGB is really solid in my opinion. It doesn't shine through the keycaps but there's just enough of it to look really stylish. Someone else might find the brightness lacking, but I found it bright enough.

VIA connectivity is really helpful too, being able to remap any button you want, create your macros, manage RGB, media keys etc. to your own liking is a big plus.

It's also really easy to disassemble it if you want to make any changes to it.

Overall, this keyboard is great for anyone. Whether you're just getting into keyboards or want to start playing around with mods or tinker with gaskets, foams etc. or you're someone who wants to buy a quality keyboard and forget about it, this is a solid choice that I can recommend.

Things I like for this keyboard
1) Full aluminum case, feels great, heavy, solid
2) Ball catch system for easy/rapid diassembly
3) Magnetic daughter board (no ribbon cables), again, very easy to take apart and put together
4) I liked the linear switches included (womier full pom grey). Felt smooth and the 55 g acuation force wasn't too heavy for me, and didn't feel too light.

The only issue I ran into was some connectivity issues when using the 2.4ghz dongle, it kept disconnecting randomly. This was resolved by using a usb cable extender to have the 2.4ghz dongle closer to the keyboard, there probably was some interference going on. Or keep the keyboard plugged in via usb cable. There were no issues with bluetooth connectivity. Once I had the dongle closer, there were no disconnects or issues and worked perfectly fine.

The RBG did not feel that bright, but not too big of a deal.

Overall, I felt like this is an amazing keyboard for the price. This really does allow a complete beginner to start dabling with custom keyboards. There were no wires to mess around with, and the ball catch system made it so easy to take apart and put back together. That along with the magentic daughter board made this a pleasure to open up and tinker with.

If you don't plan on taking it apart, changing the gaskets from dumbell to siclone sleeves and feeling how the typing feel is, or modifying it in any way, then perhaps getting an SK75 where it is not as easy to take a part could potentially be a better option. I found that I liked the softer feel of the dumbell gaskets more than the silcone sleeves after trying both styles out.

Get this keyboard if you plan to tinker with and enjoy or are curious with taking apart the keyboard, putting it back together, and experimenting with your keyboard preferences. 5/5 for me once I got rid of the connectivity issue.

After purchasing or reviewing all of the "new" budget 75 keyboards this year I can attest to this being my favorite and to me the best out of all of them. The finish quality, sound, ease of use, switches etc... all make this board rival the boards costing twice as much or more. If you can only get one 75% board this year, pick this one, I promise you will not be disappointed in the least!

Pros:
- rapid disassembly is easy to use
- Via works fine
- feels solid - stabilizers are lubed well enough. Keys sound good. Aluminum case is well... solid as you'd expect from an aluminum case. No issues or blemishes on my keyboard on the exterior - anodized black came as expected.
- wireless works fine for my set up -- keyboard is about 3 feet from my dongle/computer. It does need to be a USB2.0 and not 3.0 slot for the dongle which took me way too long to figure out.
- battery lasts a long time

Cons:
- LED's aren't that bright compared to some competitor brands if you are into that. I don't really mind.

Would strongly recommend this to folks looking for an aluminum keyboard with a wireless option, who are also going to be opening up their keyboard for modding or additional customizing.

There is a chip on the paint of the top case and it was like this as soon as it arrived. I tried to contact the customer service both on discord and through an e-mail but couldn't get a reply. Otherwise keyboard is good but I'm disappointed.
