- Hydra 10 Mechanical Wireless Gaming Keyboard with Bluetooth 5.3 + 2.4 GHz, RGB Lights 16.8 Million Colors, Type C Charging, Compatible with PCs, Smartphones and Tablets(Blue)

(Got brown switches) Light actuation feedback with a creamy feel. No software required. Battery holds up well. Works with mac and windows. Hefty and feels like a quality product. Connectivity is decent. Decent for coding too with dedicated arrow keys for the format. Cons would be the lettering, didn't like the font on the keys much. Some keycap wobble. Manual on the product website different from the box one, so keep the one you get handy. For coding specifically, `,End, Ins key needs an Fn but most other keys are easily accessible Overall a solid purchase at the price point for both gamers and writing code.

Nice sound, built, looks, RGB, overall nice prodcut. Search a lot and best RGB Bluetooth keyboard in low budget.

Actually a pretty good keyboard ngl, it's just for the love of God I can't find a lighting node on this which just lets me stuck to one colour without any breathing effect or some other things, like i like the effect but they're distracting sometimes so I want a single color at mid to full luminousity without any effect, but looks like that not configured into this i might try to open this keyboard and add that mode myself, overall go for it pretty sick deal tbh

writing this review after using it for nearly 1.5 years. I am a programmer by profession, I do LOTs and LOTs of typing. now this keyboard gives you more that you are paying for. the mechanical touch, the RGBs and the functionality to connect via usb dongle, bluetooth and wire is soo awesome. though the build quality and the keys are pretty good, i found it that using it in a moisture prominent environment will make it go mad. previously i was in delhi for 5 months and then shifted to mumbai for work and after moving to mumbai, within a month few of the keys were not working properly. like i need to hit them pretty hard or else the key won't work. so i started packing my keyboard in a bag with silicon gel and cleaning it more regularly. luckily the keyboard recovered!! :) so i guess it's not very waterproof as in mumbai being at coast, moisture levels are way higher as compared to north. rest the battery backup is easily upto a week if not using the lights and max to 4 days if using the lights. so it's a pretty good one.

(Edit: Less than 8 months later, some of the keys have died making it unusable.) Don't cheap out on mechanical keyboard, invest in a better one that'll work for a long time, or settle for membrane until you can afford a good one. I'd suggest looking for a 75% or atleast a 65% keyboard layout. I have been using this keyboard since nearly 2 months now with my laptop + external monitor setup at home. Firstly I hate the "60%" keyboard layout. It's too compact and jammed together resulting in a LOT of mistypes. I thought I'll get used to it but even after a month I haven't. Maybe it's my skill issue but I'm still perfectly comfortable with my laptops' built in keyboard. I can type at 130-140 wpm easily on my laptops' keyboard but on this thing I can barely hit 110-120. And there's only one Fn key in the right side and you need to use that to access the Tilde symbol (via Fn + Esc) or backtick (Fn + Shift + esc), both of which are often used by programmers. That's annoying as heck too and still haven't gotten used to it. This keyboard was smooth at first (still nowhere close to the more expensive ones) and it was clicky yet silent, as expected from a good MK. However after 2 months of use it's not as smooth as day one and it's much louder too. Maybe it needs some lubrication but there are no instructions for it. Also the Shift key gradually keeps getting worse (misses hits) for some weird reason. Pros: - Type C charging. One of my main reasons for buying this in the first place as I was in a budget and this was a must. It can be also switched to usb mode for zero latency in gaming. - Battery life. Unlike what some other reviews say, I can easily run it for 5-7 days on a full charge. It automatically enters standby after a short timeout. And it also works parallelly while charging. - Lighting. It supports a good bunch of predefined colors, (RGB ofc) styles, patterns. However I preferred a static red color and that is possible too. Brightness is adjustable. All of these is controlled via Fn + some key combinations. - It's not as heavy as the better MK's. Easy to move it around without worrying about dropping it. The build quality is decent although it's mostly plastic, but doesn't feel breakable.

I’ve been using the Portronics Hydra 10 wireless keyboard for a while now, and I’m really happy with it. The connectivity is smooth and reliable, and setting it up was super easy. The keys feel comfortable to type on, with a nice responsive touch that makes long typing sessions effortless. It’s also lightweight and compact, which makes it perfect for both desk use and carrying around. The battery life has been solid so far, and I haven’t had to worry about frequent charging or replacements. Overall, it’s a great value-for-money keyboard that does exactly what it promises. Definitely a good pick if you’re looking for a simple, reliable wireless keyboard.

The backlit setup is just WOW ! Its literally next level, you would fall in love with it the moment you turn it on !!! The build quality is 10/10 but it weighs half a kg ! Connectivity is top notch and I love we can use the wired connection once the battery is dead (probably in 1-2yrs?) Size is perfect with proper arrow key placement and thats the reason why I choose this keyboard over others, need it for development. Since its red key, the noise levels are pretty ok. No big tap tap like blue keys. Wish it had app support to setup macros though ! The only con I found is the Usb A to Usb C cable. Honestly its 2023, please send Usb C to C cables as most people buy wireless keyboard with wired connections to work on laptops, especially macbooks which doesnt have Usb A ports. Edit : [after 9 months of usage] My O key stopped working properly for a few days started working properly, then space key did the same thing, then E key did the same thing and finally stopped with S key stopped working properly. I had to press really hard to make it work. Contacted support and they were really quick and offered me a replacement. I send support ticket on 3rd June, send item on June 6th and got replacement on June 18th. Overall I would rate 10/10 on support and replacement. The delays in delivery was due to rain and with bluedart.

This is a good product, rgb lighting is good and typing experience is awesome on budget.
