PRODOTTO ADATTO PER CHI VUOLE SPENDERE POCO MA AVERE UN KIT DI QUALITÀ BUONA DA GAMING
Scatola arrivata integra e originale (no imballaggio Amazon).
I prodotti sono plug&play con attacco usb perciò subito in funzione appena connessi.
Il mouse ha un design aggressivo ma non troppo con illuminazione led rossa ed ha la possibilità di regolare i DPI in base alle esigenze tramite un tastino posto sotto la rotellina.
La tastiera poteva essere più illuminata in quanto i tasti non vengono proprio illuminati ma solo ai bordi e il logo vengono illuminati di rosso,ma oltre a questo dettaglio il prodotto si presenta molto comodo ed ergonomico.

works well for me.
I don't know about other people, I heard some flaws in this combo, but for me, it works like it should.
LEDs light up when my PC starts and shuts off when the PC is off.
Both the keyboard and mouse has a stable connection.
The only downside would be that it's an english keyboard, but that is what I personally wanted.

Awesome keyboard
I initially got this for a Xmas gift for my sister and she was ecstatic when she opened her gift. I was impressed with it when she had it all setup on her computer. The keystroke was nice and smooth and no loud clicking sounds like a mechanical keyboard, mind you it still makes a little keyboard stroke sound. The backlit light adds a special touch, especially if you’re playing games with minimal lighting. You can set the light to either one tone ie. blue, yellow, red etc.. or a rainbow pattern that flashes across the keyboard. You can also set the speed of the flow of the light as well.
The only problem is the wrist rest, it’s small so it doesn’t cover your entire wrist. It comes up to your palm and that’s it. I used a wireless Logitech keyboard which provided a generous amount of space with its wrist rest. However this is a gaming keyboard so you might want to see if the ergonomics fits your style of playing. So far I don’t have any problems with it. The mouse ergonomically fitted my hand perfectly not to mention the material provided a nice touch and grip. The braided wire added a special touch and rugged feeling. The mouse offers a 3000 DPI as well 4 level of DPI adjustment. Having said my piece… I was taken by how it performed, look and feel that I ordered another one for myself. I got this keyboard for half the price, so if you’re in the market for a decent yet affordable keyboard, I recommend getting this while it last/ on sale.

Impressed
I wasn’t expecting much, especially considering the cheap price, so I was pleasantly surprised.
The construction is a lot better than other gaming keyboards I have used in the paste. . It looks good. It doesn’t look cheap like my other keyboard.
Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, and very good price. Nice and compact, yet has all keys, special functions and more!
Can change backlight color and display, I prefer steady red – awesome when working at night or dark room, as I often do.
Key press is soft, not a mechanical “click”.
Mouse has very good steady weighted and smooth feel.
I bought a second one for my other system!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great gaming set when you’re on a budget! Needed a major upgrade on my keyboard and mouse I’ve had for a couple years and was looking for something that is of good quality and also decently priced. I’ve had another keyboard from the same brand and loved the mechanical feel to it and how compact it was, hence my interest in purchasing another one from this same brand and a much fuller keyboard. My last RedDragon keyboard has lasted me since 2017 and just broke in 2024.
When it arrived it was neatly packaged with a great presentation once you open it. It’s very lightweight and easy to install and connect well, just plug it in and you’re set! It does have different light settings for the keyboard, which you will be able to see in the manual. The keyboard I purchased were soft keys, although I wish I purchased the mechanical one – so be mindful on your preference of keys. The soft keys are very lightweight and easy to press, no issues. Keyboard quality is great for the price, and is perfect for my needs as I just need a keyboard that works and can handle simple gaming, not much expectations in terms of speed, performance, etc. Mouse is also great for the price, but don’t expect a high quality/pro mouse as there is a big difference when you feel it/use it. You can also adjust the mouse speed from the middle button as well. Overall you get a good deal with quality & affordability.
10/10, great option to choose for beginners, those who are looking for affordable sets, looking for a spare/backup set, or interested in giving as a gift. I would choose purchasing this over the cheaper in-store options since there are more reliable reviews for this product and can also vouch via my experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars You cannot get a better keyboard and mouse combo in this price range, I am certain of it. Let me start by saying, I love this product. I can say with complete honesty, that I do not think you can find a better Mouse/Keyboard combo out there for the price ($27.99 with free 2-day shipping w/ my Prime subscription). Having said that, please understand that you are getting a mouse/keyboard combo on the cheap, and although in this case I don’t necessarily agree with the "you get what you pay for" sentiment because this has far exceeded my expectations for the price, it is still a $30 combo so keep that in mind when purchasing as not to be disappointed if you are expecting this thing to walk your dog. It does not come with software, does not have macros, etc. (although it does have function keys for your basics like changing volume, media player play/pause, next track, etc.) In other words, it is not full of bells and whistles, but if you are just looking for a solid gaming combo for a low price than you really can’t beat this combo.
The keyboard has a solid construction despite being all plastic, and the keys have great tactile feedback, probably the best I have experienced for a non-mechanical keyboard. It is precise and responsive. The one complain I have with the keyboard is something other reviewers have already mentioned; the enter key is that strange "tall" type that relocates the "" key next to it instead of above it. In my case this is not a big deal at all because I do not use that key often, but I could see it being a problem if I did so you will want to be aware. The ability to swap the arrow and WASD keys is neat, but for me it is just a gimmick as I always use WASD when gaming anyway. With the feet down, the keyboard sits at a nice angle and I have been able to game for periods of 4+ hours without any discomfort.
Moving on to the mouse, I bought this combo originally because my Logitech G9 I have been using for the last 5 years got spilled on, and shorted out. I loved that mouse and at the time I paid $70 for it when I bought it. Now that I am married and with a child, I do not have $70 to spend on a mouse, so I came to amazon to look for decent gaming mouse. My budget was $30. After some research I came across this combo. "#1 best selling keyboard and mouse combo on amazon?" I thought. I had never heard of this brand and 5 years ago when I bought my Logitech, there was no such thing as an off brand making a quality product so I was a bit skeptical at first. However, after reading the comments I thought… "What the hell, it’s $30. I will give it a shot and if I am not thrilled, I can buy another one once I get my tax return". Now that I have rambled my story to you I will tell you how I feel about the mouse. Now, I will not lie… It is no G9. That mouse had the perfect set of weights and DPI settings that just felt amazing, but at $70 that was the expectation. With that in mind, I will say that this mouse is the second best mouse I have used. The DPI settings are nice, though for me the highest one is way too fast so I use the middle setting normally, and the lowest setting for precision such as sniping (the buttons on top of the mouse to adjust DPI on demand are great for this). The mouse is very smooth, the left and right click as well as the other buttons all have a great feel to them. I play games that require a very high CPM, so I am jamming on the right click constantly, probably at least 100 times per minute, and it is always responsive and catches every click with ease. The mouse wheel works fine, I have no issue with it… Not much to say here other than that it functions as it should.
TL;DR: Both the keyboard and mouse are worth the price alone IMO, to get both for the price is just icing on the cake. I am highly satisfied with my purchase and would strongly recommend this combo to anyone. I have already recommended it to friends if they should ever need an economic solution to replacing any of the gaming keyboards/mice.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid entry level gaming keyboard If you’re looking for an affordable and reliable entry level keyboard+mouse combo then I would definitely recommend going with this RedDragon keyboard, I recently upgraded to a corsair keyboard but stuck with this one for a couple months.
I got myself this keyboard and mouse combo not long before I got my first ever gaming PC I wasn’t looking to spend too much on a keyboard quite yet so I opted to go for the this RedDragon, it certainly does its job and holds up pretty well the keys are relatively quiet and I haven’t noticed much input lag. The mouse is also comfortable to use and has a nice amount of weight to it. Some of my few gripes are that I wish the keys were positioned a bit differently I kept finding myself accidentally hitting certain keys I didn’t mean to every now and then and I also do wish that the keyboard felt a bit more high-quality in my opinion the material makes it feel a bit cheap.
Summary
Pros:
☑️Cost effective
☑️Minimal lag
☑️Comfortable mouse
☑️Keys are quiet
Cons:
☑️Cheap feeling material
☑️Key positioning
☑️Not many RGB options

5.0 out of 5 stars Need a super keyboard and mouse for under $30? (2020 update) If you can spare two USB ports, this set is a fantastic bargain. Maybe there’s more customization on more expensive gaming keyboards – this is my first step into the field. However, everything works great and I honestly have no complaints. It exceeded my expectations so far (A month or two of use so far).
2020 Update:
I liked my first Redragon set enough to buy a second set for at work. The price is still right, and everything still looks and feels great. A few things have changed, though.
The keyboard is now RGB backlit rather than plain unlit keys with red LED embellishments. There are FN controls to regulate the “breathing” (light-dark pulsing) of the keyboard, which is good because I found it distracting. The included instruction booklet lists these key combinations. FN+END pauses and unpauses breathing. FN+PGDN enables and disables the backlight entirely. FN+PGUP rotates through 3 still rainbow lighting arrangements. FN+HOME rotates through 7 monochromatic colors (white, blue, red, green, purple, yellow, and cyan). FN+INS smoothly transitions through the 7 colors over the course of a few seconds, though to my eyes the brightness was uneven. FN+UP and FN+DN scale through 4 levels of brightness, and FN+LEFT and FN+RIGHT scale through 4 speeds of animation.
For my money, the backlight will be kept motionless on a monochrome light, but to each their own.
All told, very happy with the keyboard. It also features two new sets of buttons above the F-row, which are oddly not backlit. The set to left of center includes links to My Computer, Search, Refresh, Email, Calculator, and Home Page. The keys to the right are media controls for Stop, Last Track, Play/Pause, and Next Track. These are all fine, but unnecessary since the F-row already has FN shortcuts to most of these things, and the topmost row, again, isn’t backlit.
And we have the mouse. It feels identical to the previous mouse, though it has 4 DPI settings rather than 3. There’s a catch though, which is that the mouse backlight (red only) is set to “breathe” by default. To disable this, you’ll need to download software from the Redragon support page. Although my mouse and keyboard both list their parts # as S101-3, the mouse is actually a M601-3 CENTROPHORUS. You’ll need to download the drivers for this mouse in order to disable breathing. All the way left on the software’s slider will disable the light fully, and all the way right will leave it permanently backlit (my preference). The other new thing with the mouse is that a LED flashes when you change DPI; it’s flash speed correlating to how high the DPI is. It seems unnecessary but harmless.
All told, my first impression is that the addition of pulsing lights just makes first time setup harder as you need to track down the software for the mouse and learn the keyboard controls. I want to take off a half point for the mouse not having a hardware option to disable the light, but all told I’ll keep my rating at a 5 as the backlit keys are actually an improvement once you learn how to freeze them.
*****
2023 update – I deep cleaned the mouse some time ago and since it was beginning to wear off, I removed the painted black dragon silhouette from the mouse where the palm lies, revealing clear plastic underneath. Don’t do that. The reason being, that my palm has slowly developed an irritation which has lasted weeks directly where that LED is closest when holding the mouse. I just now connected the dots and opened it again to insert some paper on top of it, but if my hand doesn’t clear up within a week I’ll remove the LED entirely and see if that helps. (Photo doesn’t really do justice to the palm, but anyway trust me it’s not great to keep LEDs millimeters from your skin without filtration of some kind.)
I’ll update if this does/doesn’t resolve things.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Keyboard | QUALITY | Best Bang for your buck! So, I am writing this review about 2 years later after first purchasing this particular duo. I am literally typing with it now. lol
Now, I have to say that for the money you spend on this it is DEFINITELY worth it. I have had this combo for over 2 years now and it is still holding up strong. I have practically beat this keyboard and mouse into the dirt with the multiple moves from state to state the last couple years, dragging it in the Semi truck with me while I was an OTR trucker, dropping it, spilling drinks on it, getting gunky yucky food on it (all of which I HIGHLY recommend you DO NOT DO btw!) But through all of the abuse, albeit inconsistent and no overly violent, but rather a moderate and regular abuse of the product, it is still holding up strong as ever!
With this being said, I HIGHLY recommend this product and highly praise yall for this product as it was built to last!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than I expected, I love it! I bought this keyboard to replace my old Havit which had the lighting keys. This Reddragon I bought this in a hurry, and I’m so glad I did, it is beautiful, and I love how it types, the typing is so soft and easy, and the cord is a very nice length. To be honest it’s way more than I expected for such a cheap price. I love the lights and different styles. I haven’t used the mouse that came with it yet, but it looks nice. If you need a new keyboard you can’t go wrong with this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the money I have had many keyboards and this is one of the best. I bought a similar keyboard different brand and the feel doesn’t compare well to Redragon. There are no sharp lines on the palm rest area at the bottom making it much more comfortable. I also appreciate the option to turn off the rainbow and flashing backlights and just have a single color non flashing, non breathing backlight. I also prefer the feeling of a membrane keyboard over mechanical clicking. The next keyboard I get will be Redragon.

4.0 out of 5 stars Could have been better For those that really don’t like a lot of feel while typing this is a good keyboard. In fact, it would be inappropriate to say under any circumstances, that it was less than a good keyboard. So what is wrong? First of all, the keys “feel” closer together, so I find I am having to relearn how to use a keyboard. Second, unless you have a very well lit room, you have to have the keyboard lit up as the key top printing is so dark, you can’t really see the letters, etc., on the key facings. And you have to have the brightness all the way up.
And then there is the mouse. For a strictly right handed user, the buttons on the side of the mouse are probably fine, but they are a nuisance for a left handed user. IF they could be just turned off, that would be far better, but the very limited “manual” only covers changing the DPI setting. It says you can make changes through the software after downloading and installing it but fails to tell you where to download it from. It’s not in the manual, so I will have to use a search to find the company’s website. Ooops, it’s on the box, not that it matters, really, since there is no . It will be interesting to see if the “software” is in any other form other than for Windows. I dual boot with Windows and Linux, so I am hoping that there is also Linux software support. Nope, Windows only. Figures.
I’d like to amend this review. For a left handed person, one that actually mouses with the left hand, this mouse is damn near useless because of the buttons on the side. It is almost impossible not to touch them while you are doing something. The setup file may allow you to disable them in Windows, but the setup file is ONLY for windows, so if you are using the mouse with a different OS, such as Linux, you are stuck with the useless buttons.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cheap keyboard and Mouse Combo I been using relatively inexpensive mice for awhile and I just needed a new one and saw these and thought might as well give it a shot. I needed a keyboard and a new mouse anyway. I been using both for the last few days and I found the keyboard to feel very squishy when typing, its not a deal breaker for me but just bear that in mind. The mouse is fine and it has this button to adjust the sensitivity and every time you plug it in, it always starts at the lowest setting. For a cheap keyboard and mouse it isn’t bad at all. I may eventually replace them and keep these as backups but we shall see.

Good Back-Lighting
I searched pretty extensively on Amazon to find/land on this keyboard for laptop at a reasonable price. I wanted a keyboard with good back-lighting in white that is easy to see under low lighting conditions, but I like it that there are multiple back-light color options. The keyboard is great for accessing laptop more comfortably and when sitting on couch with keyboard in lap. I can see where the blue and red might also be useful for different lighting conditions. The mouse was a bonus for me and it is a very ergonomic and comfortable mouse – better than the expensive Logitech mouse I was using. I’d rather have the wireless version of the keyboard and mouse combo, but this product gets the job done satisfactorily.

Having said that, please understand that you are getting a mouse/keyboard combo on the cheap, and although in this case I don’t necessarily agree with the "you get what you pay for" sentiment because this has far exceeded my expectations for the price, it is still a $30 combo so keep that in mind when purchasing as not to be disappointed if you are expecting this thing to walk your dog. It does not come with software, does not have macros, etc. (although it does have function keys for your basics like changing volume, media player play/pause, next track, etc.) In other words, it is not full of bells and whistles, but if you are just looking for a solid gaming combo for a low price than you really can’t beat this combo.
The keyboard has a solid construction despite being all plastic, and the keys have great tactile feedback, probably the best I have experienced for a non-mechanical keyboard. It is precise and responsive. The one complain I have with the keyboard is something other reviewers have already mentioned; the enter key is that strange "tall" type that relocates the "" key next to it instead of above it. In my case this is not a big deal at all because I do not use that key often, but I could see it being a problem if I did so you will want to be aware. The ability to swap the arrow and WASD keys is neat, but for me it is just a gimmick as I always use WASD when gaming anyway. With the feet down, the keyboard sits at a nice angle and I have been able to game for periods of 4+ hours without any discomfort.
Moving on to the mouse, I bought this combo originally because my Logitech G9 I have been using for the last 5 years got spilled on, and shorted out. I loved that mouse and at the time I paid $70 for it when I bought it. Now that I am married and with a child, I do not have $70 to spend on a mouse, so I came to amazon to look for decent gaming mouse. My budget was $30. After some research I came across this combo. "#1 best selling keyboard and mouse combo on amazon?" I thought. I had never heard of this brand and 5 years ago when I bought my Logitech, there was no such thing as an off brand making a quality product so I was a bit skeptical at first. However, after reading the comments I thought… "What the hell, it’s $30. I will give it a shot and if I am not thrilled, I can buy another one once I get my tax return". Now that I have rambled my story to you I will tell you how I feel about the mouse. Now, I will not lie… It is no G9. That mouse had the perfect set of weights and DPI settings that just felt amazing, but at $70 that was the expectation. With that in mind, I will say that this mouse is the second best mouse I have used. The DPI settings are nice, though for me the highest one is way too fast so I use the middle setting normally, and the lowest setting for precision such as sniping (the buttons on top of the mouse to adjust DPI on demand are great for this). The mouse is very smooth, the left and right click as well as the other buttons all have a great feel to them. I play games that require a very high CPM, so I am jamming on the right click constantly, probably at least 100 times per minute, and it is always responsive and catches every click with ease. The mouse wheel works fine, I have no issue with it… Not much to say here other than that it functions as it should.
TL;DR: Both the keyboard and mouse are worth the price alone IMO, to get both for the price is just icing on the cake. I am highly satisfied with my purchase and would strongly recommend this combo to anyone. I have already recommended it to friends if they should ever need an economic solution to replacing any of the gaming keyboards/mice.

Great gaming set when you’re on a budget!
Needed a major upgrade on my keyboard and mouse I’ve had for a couple years and was looking for something that is of good quality and also decently priced. I’ve had another keyboard from the same brand and loved the mechanical feel to it and how compact it was, hence my interest in purchasing another one from this same brand and a much fuller keyboard. My last RedDragon keyboard has lasted me since 2017 and just broke in 2024.
When it arrived it was neatly packaged with a great presentation once you open it. It’s very lightweight and easy to install and connect well, just plug it in and you’re set! It does have different light settings for the keyboard, which you will be able to see in the manual. The keyboard I purchased were soft keys, although I wish I purchased the mechanical one – so be mindful on your preference of keys. The soft keys are very lightweight and easy to press, no issues. Keyboard quality is great for the price, and is perfect for my needs as I just need a keyboard that works and can handle simple gaming, not much expectations in terms of speed, performance, etc. Mouse is also great for the price, but don’t expect a high quality/pro mouse as there is a big difference when you feel it/use it. You can also adjust the mouse speed from the middle button as well. Overall you get a good deal with quality & affordability.
10/10, great option to choose for beginners, those who are looking for affordable sets, looking for a spare/backup set, or interested in giving as a gift. I would choose purchasing this over the cheaper in-store options since there are more reliable reviews for this product and can also vouch via my experience.

Good Back-Lighting
I searched pretty extensively on Amazon to find/land on this keyboard for laptop at a reasonable price. I wanted a keyboard with good back-lighting in white that is easy to see under low lighting conditions, but I like it that there are multiple back-light color options. The keyboard is great for accessing laptop more comfortably and when sitting on couch with keyboard in lap. I can see where the blue and red might also be useful for different lighting conditions. The mouse was a bonus for me and it is a very ergonomic and comfortable mouse – better than the expensive Logitech mouse I was using. I’d rather have the wireless version of the keyboard and mouse combo, but this product gets the job done satisfactorily.

Solid entry level gaming keyboard
If you’re looking for an affordable and reliable entry level keyboard+mouse combo then I would definitely recommend going with this RedDragon keyboard, I recently upgraded to a corsair keyboard but stuck with this one for a couple months.
I got myself this keyboard and mouse combo not long before I got my first ever gaming PC I wasn’t looking to spend too much on a keyboard quite yet so I opted to go for the this RedDragon, it certainly does its job and holds up pretty well the keys are relatively quiet and I haven’t noticed much input lag. The mouse is also comfortable to use and has a nice amount of weight to it. Some of my few gripes are that I wish the keys were positioned a bit differently I kept finding myself accidentally hitting certain keys I didn’t mean to every now and then and I also do wish that the keyboard felt a bit more high-quality in my opinion the material makes it feel a bit cheap.
Summary
Pros:
☑️Cost effective
☑️Minimal lag
☑️Comfortable mouse
☑️Keys are quiet
Cons:
☑️Cheap feeling material
☑️Key positioning
☑️Not many RGB options

THE TRUTH About the Red Dragon S101 Gaming Keyboard (verified owner)–
Affordable and very nice RGB Combo
I like the softness of the keyboard keys, it’s very silent while typing. The lights of the keyboard and mouse are great and adjustable, also, you can download the software for both keyboard and mouse in the Redragon official website to have a better customization and management.

Surprisingly a very good option
The media could not be loaded. Coming from a Cynosa Radeon/ a super cheap mouse, this was a pleasant upgrade. I always heard Radeon was the go to brand for keyboards, but after reading a bunch of reviews I decided I didn’t really want to spend 100 on a keyboard at the moment, and it seemed even most 100 dollar keyboards had issues, so I wanted to give up. I ended up going with this, because it also came with a mouse and looked pretty nice. To be honest it seems most keyboards around this price if you can see the light on the letters, it’s barley visible, but this keyboard has very visible light. I don’t really care about having colors flash while I type like a disco, or whatever, so that doesn’t really matter to me, but the color options are still nice. I have sensitive eyes so I appreciate the options/ brightness options. I’d recommend this, although I see some reviews saying that theirs have issues, mine doesn’t seem to at all, a contributing factor may be how amazon works tend to package things, my keyboard solely came in it’s original packaging, which was a bit off putting but not the brands fault. Much quieter than my last keyboard, and buttons feel really smooth. However the image does show that the light can be seen through the keys, which is not the case. For me, I don’t really care for keyboards like that because I feel like I can never properly see the keys if they aren’t on, but I’m sure that can be modified. I’d recommend this!

It's alright
I bought this back in 2021, only writing a review now. It’s an okay keyboard, I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. As much as I want to love it, it’s become very flakey as of late. Multiple keys randomly stop working and I often have to fight it to work properly. Never an issue with main keys for gaming, but is for things such as the windows key which I use to tab out of games. This is from an older keyboard so quality issues could be better or worse by now. I do love the mouse, its very sleek and absolutely no issues. Even the bottom of the mouse has designs on it which I adore.

Got this keyboard to switch to a much quieter version of what I currently have. But I gotta say, it’s 100% better, Red Dragon is such an underrated brand. And the mouse is great too! There’s software in red dragons site to modify and manage custom settings for both the mouse and keyboard.

Best keyboard
I haven’t used this for gaming yet but this is the best keyboard I’ve ever had. The keys are smooth, no clacking, no sticking. Very responsive. I didn’t even realize how much I disliked every other keyboard I have EVER used til this one, I assumed they were all obnoxious. I’m so glad I got this. Added bonus is that it is very cute and the lights flash different colors reminding me of Christmas. I usually use a wireless mouse but the wire is long and doesn’t get in my way so I really don’t notice. The price is excellent as well. Zero regrets buying this.

Love this keyboard! Tactile but quiet, and great for a home office and every day use!
I love this keyboard! I actually bought two other keyboards before this one, and they were not what I expected, so my hopes were not high when I ordered this one. This keyboard is beautiful, works great, and changing the color schemes is very easy. The keys are tactile enough that when you press them, you know they have been pressed, but still very quiet! I use this keyboard in my home office every day, and am very happy with it!
Two downsides, but not enough of an issue to lower my rating:
1. The letters on each key do not light up. They’re a solid color and don’t change as shown in the pictures. It’s the lighting behind the keys that light up.
2. I didn’t care for the mouse, specifically the color and that it didn’t have the lighting options to match the keyboard.
Again, this keyboard is wonderful and I definitely recommend!

Excellent, and very good price.
Nice and compact, yet has all keys, special functions and more!
Can change backlight color and display, I prefer steady red – awesome when working at night or dark room, as I often do.
Key press is soft, not a mechanical “click”.
Mouse has very good steady weighted and smooth feel.
I bought a second one for my other system!

Best budget gaming keyboard and mouse?
This keyboard is completely silent, like completely. It feels nice to type on however does require some heavy fingers so just keep that in mind. Its extremely comfortable the bottom of the keyboard almost acts like a wrist rest and feels quite nice. The rgb isn’t extremely bright but its enough for some lighting and being somewhat customizable is nice to get whatever color you may want but you are pretty limited to what you can do. It does exactly what its supposed to do and this keyboard in particular lasts a looonnggg time. The only main downside is the keycaps are like a matte finish and it wears off fairly quickly so some start to look shiny after some use.

You cannot get a better keyboard and mouse combo in this price range, I am certain of it.
Let me start by saying, I love this product. I can say with complete honesty, that I do not think you can find a better Mouse/Keyboard combo out there for the price ($27.99 with free 2-day shipping w/ my Prime subscription). Having said that, please understand that you are getting a mouse/keyboard combo on the cheap, and although in this case I don't necessarily agree with the "you get what you pay for" sentiment because this has far exceeded my expectations for the price, it is still a $30 combo so keep that in mind when purchasing as not to be disappointed if you are expecting this thing to walk your dog. It does not come with software, does not have macros, etc. (although it does have function keys for your basics like changing volume, media player play/pause, next track, etc.) In other words, it is not full of bells and whistles, but if you are just looking for a solid gaming combo for a low price than you really can't beat this combo.
The keyboard has a solid construction despite being all plastic, and the keys have great tactile feedback, probably the best I have experienced for a non-mechanical keyboard. It is precise and responsive. The one complain I have with the keyboard is something other reviewers have already mentioned; the enter key is that strange "tall" type that relocates the "" key next to it instead of above it. In my case this is not a big deal at all because I do not use that key often, but I could see it being a problem if I did so you will want to be aware. The ability to swap the arrow and WASD keys is neat, but for me it is just a gimmick as I always use WASD when gaming anyway. With the feet down, the keyboard sits at a nice angle and I have been able to game for periods of 4+ hours without any discomfort.
Moving on to the mouse, I bought this combo originally because my Logitech G9 I have been using for the last 5 years got spilled on, and shorted out. I loved that mouse and at the time I paid $70 for it when I bought it. Now that I am married and with a child, I do not have $70 to spend on a mouse, so I came to amazon to look for decent gaming mouse. My budget was $30. After some research I came across this combo. "#1 best selling keyboard and mouse combo on amazon?" I thought. I had never heard of this brand and 5 years ago when I bought my Logitech, there was no such thing as an off brand making a quality product so I was a bit skeptical at first. However, after reading the comments I thought… "What the hell, it's $30. I will give it a shot and if I am not thrilled, I can buy another one once I get my tax return". Now that I have rambled my story to you I will tell you how I feel about the mouse. Now, I will not lie… It is no G9. That mouse had the perfect set of weights and DPI settings that just felt amazing, but at $70 that was the expectation. With that in mind, I will say that this mouse is the second best mouse I have used. The DPI settings are nice, though for me the highest one is way too fast so I use the middle setting normally, and the lowest setting for precision such as sniping (the buttons on top of the mouse to adjust DPI on demand are great for this). The mouse is very smooth, the left and right click as well as the other buttons all have a great feel to them. I play games that require a very high CPM, so I am jamming on the right click constantly, probably at least 100 times per minute, and it is always responsive and catches every click with ease. The mouse wheel works fine, I have no issue with it… Not much to say here other than that it functions as it should.
TL;DR: Both the keyboard and mouse are worth the price alone IMO, to get both for the price is just icing on the cake. I am highly satisfied with my purchase and would strongly recommend this combo to anyone. I have already recommended it to friends if they should ever need an economic solution to replacing any of the gaming keyboards/mice.

Need a super keyboard and mouse for under $30? (2020 update)
If you can spare two USB ports, this set is a fantastic bargain. Maybe there's more customization on more expensive gaming keyboards – this is my first step into the field. However, everything works great and I honestly have no complaints. It exceeded my expectations so far (A month or two of use so far).
2020 Update:
I liked my first Redragon set enough to buy a second set for at work. The price is still right, and everything still looks and feels great. A few things have changed, though.
The keyboard is now RGB backlit rather than plain unlit keys with red LED embellishments. There are FN controls to regulate the "breathing" (light-dark pulsing) of the keyboard, which is good because I found it distracting. The included instruction booklet lists these key combinations. FN+END pauses and unpauses breathing. FN+PGDN enables and disables the backlight entirely. FN+PGUP rotates through 3 still rainbow lighting arrangements. FN+HOME rotates through 7 monochromatic colors (white, blue, red, green, purple, yellow, and cyan). FN+INS smoothly transitions through the 7 colors over the course of a few seconds, though to my eyes the brightness was uneven. FN+UP and FN+DN scale through 4 levels of brightness, and FN+LEFT and FN+RIGHT scale through 4 speeds of animation.
For my money, the backlight will be kept motionless on a monochrome light, but to each their own.
All told, very happy with the keyboard. It also features two new sets of buttons above the F-row, which are oddly not backlit. The set to left of center includes links to My Computer, Search, Refresh, Email, Calculator, and Home Page. The keys to the right are media controls for Stop, Last Track, Play/Pause, and Next Track. These are all fine, but unnecessary since the F-row already has FN shortcuts to most of these things, and the topmost row, again, isn't backlit.
And we have the mouse. It feels identical to the previous mouse, though it has 4 DPI settings rather than 3. There's a catch though, which is that the mouse backlight (red only) is set to "breathe" by default. To disable this, you'll need to download software from the Redragon support page. Although my mouse and keyboard both list their parts # as S101-3, the mouse is actually a M601-3 CENTROPHORUS. You'll need to download the drivers for this mouse in order to disable breathing. All the way left on the software's slider will disable the light fully, and all the way right will leave it permanently backlit (my preference). The other new thing with the mouse is that a LED flashes when you change DPI; it's flash speed correlating to how high the DPI is. It seems unnecessary but harmless.
All told, my first impression is that the addition of pulsing lights just makes first time setup harder as you need to track down the software for the mouse and learn the keyboard controls. I want to take off a half point for the mouse not having a hardware option to disable the light, but all told I'll keep my rating at a 5 as the backlit keys are actually an improvement once you learn how to freeze them.
*****
2023 update – I deep cleaned the mouse some time ago and since it was beginning to wear off, I removed the painted black dragon silhouette from the mouse where the palm lies, revealing clear plastic underneath. Don't do that. The reason being, that my palm has slowly developed an irritation which has lasted weeks directly where that LED is closest when holding the mouse. I just now connected the dots and opened it again to insert some paper on top of it, but if my hand doesn't clear up within a week I'll remove the LED entirely and see if that helps. (Photo doesn't really do justice to the palm, but anyway trust me it's not great to keep LEDs millimeters from your skin without filtration of some kind.)
I'll update if this does/doesn't resolve things.

Great gaming set when you’re on a budget!
Needed a major upgrade on my keyboard and mouse I’ve had for a couple years and was looking for something that is of good quality and also decently priced. I’ve had another keyboard from the same brand and loved the mechanical feel to it and how compact it was, hence my interest in purchasing another one from this same brand and a much fuller keyboard. My last RedDragon keyboard has lasted me since 2017 and just broke in 2024.
When it arrived it was neatly packaged with a great presentation once you open it. It’s very lightweight and easy to install and connect well, just plug it in and you’re set! It does have different light settings for the keyboard, which you will be able to see in the manual. The keyboard I purchased were soft keys, although I wish I purchased the mechanical one – so be mindful on your preference of keys. The soft keys are very lightweight and easy to press, no issues. Keyboard quality is great for the price, and is perfect for my needs as I just need a keyboard that works and can handle simple gaming, not much expectations in terms of speed, performance, etc. Mouse is also great for the price, but don’t expect a high quality/pro mouse as there is a big difference when you feel it/use it. You can also adjust the mouse speed from the middle button as well. Overall you get a good deal with quality & affordability.
10/10, great option to choose for beginners, those who are looking for affordable sets, looking for a spare/backup set, or interested in giving as a gift. I would choose purchasing this over the cheaper in-store options since there are more reliable reviews for this product and can also vouch via my experience.

Need a super keyboard and mouse for under $30? (2020 update)
If you can spare two USB ports, this set is a fantastic bargain. Maybe there's more customization on more expensive gaming keyboards – this is my first step into the field. However, everything works great and I honestly have no complaints. It exceeded my expectations so far (A month or two of use so far).

Impressed at the quality of this keyboard and mouse combo. Keys are very soft and quiet. Mouse very responsive and has many options for sensitivity. We're a gaming household and will be purchasing more from RedDragon. Thanks for making a quality product for a reasonable price!

Solid entry level gaming keyboard
If you're looking for an affordable and reliable entry level keyboard+mouse combo then I would definitely recommend going with this RedDragon keyboard, I recently upgraded to a corsair keyboard but stuck with this one for a couple months.
I got myself this keyboard and mouse combo not long before I got my first ever gaming PC I wasn't looking to spend too much on a keyboard quite yet so I opted to go for the this RedDragon, it certainly does its job and holds up pretty well the keys are relatively quiet and I haven't noticed much input lag. The mouse is also comfortable to use and has a nice amount of weight to it. Some of my few gripes are that I wish the keys were positioned a bit differently I kept finding myself accidentally hitting certain keys I didn't mean to every now and then and I also do wish that the keyboard felt a bit more high-quality in my opinion the material makes it feel a bit cheap.
Summary
Pros:
☑️Cost effective
☑️Minimal lag
☑️Comfortable mouse
☑️Keys are quiet
Cons:
☑️Cheap feeling material
☑️Key positioning
☑️Not many RGB options

Redragon S101 Wired Gaming Keyboard and Mouse Combo (verified owner)–
Fantastic item.
This item is as close to perfect as you can get! Keyboard looks slick, feels comfortable on the fingers and is nice and quiet.
The mouse looks awesome and feels great. I especially like the scroller, my finger grips it nicely and makes it easy to scroll without slipping off.
Better yet, the keyboard and mouse are nice and
Cheap and are fantastic quality.
Redragon is the go to brand!

You cannot get a better keyboard and mouse combo in this price range, I am certain of it.
Let me start by saying, I love this product. I can say with complete honesty, that I do not think you can find a better Mouse/Keyboard combo out there for the price ($27.99 with free 2-day shipping w/ my Prime subscription). Having said that, please understand that you are getting a mouse/keyboard combo on the cheap, and although in this case I don't necessarily agree with the "you get what you pay for" sentiment because this has far exceeded my expectations for the price, it is still a $30 combo so keep that in mind when purchasing as not to be disappointed if you are expecting this thing to walk your dog. It does not come with software, does not have macros, etc. (although it does have function keys for your basics like changing volume, media player play/pause, next track, etc.) In other words, it is not full of bells and whistles, but if you are just looking for a solid gaming combo for a low price than you really can't beat this combo.
The keyboard has a solid construction despite being all plastic, and the keys have great tactile feedback, probably the best I have experienced for a non-mechanical keyboard. It is precise and responsive. The one complain I have with the keyboard is something other reviewers have already mentioned; the enter key is that strange "tall" type that relocates the "" key next to it instead of above it. In my case this is not a big deal at all because I do not use that key often, but I could see it being a problem if I did so you will want to be aware. The ability to swap the arrow and WASD keys is neat, but for me it is just a gimmick as I always use WASD when gaming anyway. With the feet down, the keyboard sits at a nice angle and I have been able to game for periods of 4+ hours without any discomfort.
Moving on to the mouse, I bought this combo originally because my Logitech G9 I have been using for the last 5 years got spilled on, and shorted out. I loved that mouse and at the time I paid $70 for it when I bought it. Now that I am married and with a child, I do not have $70 to spend on a mouse, so I came to amazon to look for decent gaming mouse. My budget was $30. After some research I came across this combo. "#1 best selling keyboard and mouse combo on amazon?" I thought. I had never heard of this brand and 5 years ago when I bought my Logitech, there was no such thing as an off brand making a quality product so I was a bit skeptical at first. However, after reading the comments I thought… "What the hell, it's $30. I will give it a shot and if I am not thrilled, I can buy another one once I get my tax return". Now that I have rambled my story to you I will tell you how I feel about the mouse. Now, I will not lie… It is no G9. That mouse had the perfect set of weights and DPI settings that just felt amazing, but at $70 that was the expectation. With that in mind, I will say that this mouse is the second best mouse I have used. The DPI settings are nice, though for me the highest one is way too fast so I use the middle setting normally, and the lowest setting for precision such as sniping (the buttons on top of the mouse to adjust DPI on demand are great for this). The mouse is very smooth, the left and right click as well as the other buttons all have a great feel to them. I play games that require a very high CPM, so I am jamming on the right click constantly, probably at least 100 times per minute, and it is always responsive and catches every click with ease. The mouse wheel works fine, I have no issue with it… Not much to say here other than that it functions as it should.
TL;DR: Both the keyboard and mouse are worth the price alone IMO, to get both for the price is just icing on the cake. I am highly satisfied with my purchase and would strongly recommend this combo to anyone. I have already recommended it to friends if they should ever need an economic solution to replacing any of the gaming keyboards/mice.

PRODOTTO ADATTO PER CHI VUOLE SPENDERE POCO MA AVERE UN KIT DI QUALITÀ BUONA DA GAMINGScatola arrivata integra e originale (no imballaggio Amazon).
I prodotti sono plug&play con attacco usb perciò subito in funzione appena connessi.
Il mouse ha un design aggressivo ma non troppo con illuminazione led rossa ed ha la possibilità di regolare i DPI in base alle esigenze tramite un tastino posto sotto la rotellina.
La tastiera poteva essere più illuminata in quanto i tasti non vengono proprio illuminati ma solo ai bordi e il logo vengono illuminati di rosso,ma oltre a questo dettaglio il prodotto si presenta molto comodo ed ergonomico.

works well for me.I don't know about other people, I heard some flaws in this combo, but for me, it works like it should.
LEDs light up when my PC starts and shuts off when the PC is off.
Both the keyboard and mouse has a stable connection.
The only downside would be that it's an english keyboard, but that is what I personally wanted.

Awesome keyboardI initially got this for a Xmas gift for my sister and she was ecstatic when she opened her gift. I was impressed with it when she had it all setup on her computer. The keystroke was nice and smooth and no loud clicking sounds like a mechanical keyboard, mind you it still makes a little keyboard stroke sound. The backlit light adds a special touch, especially if you’re playing games with minimal lighting. You can set the light to either one tone ie. blue, yellow, red etc.. or a rainbow pattern that flashes across the keyboard. You can also set the speed of the flow of the light as well.
The only problem is the wrist rest, it’s small so it doesn’t cover your entire wrist. It comes up to your palm and that’s it. I used a wireless Logitech keyboard which provided a generous amount of space with its wrist rest. However this is a gaming keyboard so you might want to see if the ergonomics fits your style of playing. So far I don’t have any problems with it. The mouse ergonomically fitted my hand perfectly not to mention the material provided a nice touch and grip. The braided wire added a special touch and rugged feeling. The mouse offers a 3000 DPI as well 4 level of DPI adjustment. Having said my piece… I was taken by how it performed, look and feel that I ordered another one for myself. I got this keyboard for half the price, so if you’re in the market for a decent yet affordable keyboard, I recommend getting this while it last/ on sale.

The only problem is the wrist rest, it's small so it doesn't cover your entire wrist. It comes up to your palm and that's it. I used a wireless Logitech keyboard which provided a generous amount of space with its wrist rest. However this is a gaming keyboard so you might want to see if the ergonomics fits your style of playing. So far I don't have any problems with it. The mouse ergonomically fitted my hand perfectly not to mention the material provided a nice touch and grip. The braided wire added a special touch and rugged feeling. The mouse offers a 3000 DPI as well 4 level of DPI adjustment. Having said my piece… I was taken by how it performed, look and feel that I ordered another one for myself. I got this keyboard for half the price, so if you're in the market for a decent yet affordable keyboard, I recommend getting this while it last/ on sale.

ImpressedI wasn’t expecting much, especially considering the cheap price, so I was pleasantly surprised.
The construction is a lot better than other gaming keyboards I have used in the paste. . It looks good. It doesn’t look cheap like my other keyboard.
Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, and very good price.
Nice and compact, yet has all keys, special functions and more!
Can change backlight color and display, I prefer steady red – awesome when working at night or dark room, as I often do.
Key press is soft, not a mechanical “click”.
Mouse has very good steady weighted and smooth feel.
I bought a second one for my other system!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great gaming set when you’re on a budget!
Needed a major upgrade on my keyboard and mouse I’ve had for a couple years and was looking for something that is of good quality and also decently priced. I’ve had another keyboard from the same brand and loved the mechanical feel to it and how compact it was, hence my interest in purchasing another one from this same brand and a much fuller keyboard. My last RedDragon keyboard has lasted me since 2017 and just broke in 2024.
When it arrived it was neatly packaged with a great presentation once you open it. It’s very lightweight and easy to install and connect well, just plug it in and you’re set! It does have different light settings for the keyboard, which you will be able to see in the manual. The keyboard I purchased were soft keys, although I wish I purchased the mechanical one – so be mindful on your preference of keys. The soft keys are very lightweight and easy to press, no issues. Keyboard quality is great for the price, and is perfect for my needs as I just need a keyboard that works and can handle simple gaming, not much expectations in terms of speed, performance, etc. Mouse is also great for the price, but don’t expect a high quality/pro mouse as there is a big difference when you feel it/use it. You can also adjust the mouse speed from the middle button as well. Overall you get a good deal with quality & affordability.
10/10, great option to choose for beginners, those who are looking for affordable sets, looking for a spare/backup set, or interested in giving as a gift. I would choose purchasing this over the cheaper in-store options since there are more reliable reviews for this product and can also vouch via my experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars You cannot get a better keyboard and mouse combo in this price range, I am certain of it.
Let me start by saying, I love this product. I can say with complete honesty, that I do not think you can find a better Mouse/Keyboard combo out there for the price ($27.99 with free 2-day shipping w/ my Prime subscription). Having said that, please understand that you are getting a mouse/keyboard combo on the cheap, and although in this case I don’t necessarily agree with the "you get what you pay for" sentiment because this has far exceeded my expectations for the price, it is still a $30 combo so keep that in mind when purchasing as not to be disappointed if you are expecting this thing to walk your dog. It does not come with software, does not have macros, etc. (although it does have function keys for your basics like changing volume, media player play/pause, next track, etc.) In other words, it is not full of bells and whistles, but if you are just looking for a solid gaming combo for a low price than you really can’t beat this combo.
The keyboard has a solid construction despite being all plastic, and the keys have great tactile feedback, probably the best I have experienced for a non-mechanical keyboard. It is precise and responsive. The one complain I have with the keyboard is something other reviewers have already mentioned; the enter key is that strange "tall" type that relocates the "" key next to it instead of above it. In my case this is not a big deal at all because I do not use that key often, but I could see it being a problem if I did so you will want to be aware. The ability to swap the arrow and WASD keys is neat, but for me it is just a gimmick as I always use WASD when gaming anyway. With the feet down, the keyboard sits at a nice angle and I have been able to game for periods of 4+ hours without any discomfort.
Moving on to the mouse, I bought this combo originally because my Logitech G9 I have been using for the last 5 years got spilled on, and shorted out. I loved that mouse and at the time I paid $70 for it when I bought it. Now that I am married and with a child, I do not have $70 to spend on a mouse, so I came to amazon to look for decent gaming mouse. My budget was $30. After some research I came across this combo. "#1 best selling keyboard and mouse combo on amazon?" I thought. I had never heard of this brand and 5 years ago when I bought my Logitech, there was no such thing as an off brand making a quality product so I was a bit skeptical at first. However, after reading the comments I thought… "What the hell, it’s $30. I will give it a shot and if I am not thrilled, I can buy another one once I get my tax return". Now that I have rambled my story to you I will tell you how I feel about the mouse. Now, I will not lie… It is no G9. That mouse had the perfect set of weights and DPI settings that just felt amazing, but at $70 that was the expectation. With that in mind, I will say that this mouse is the second best mouse I have used. The DPI settings are nice, though for me the highest one is way too fast so I use the middle setting normally, and the lowest setting for precision such as sniping (the buttons on top of the mouse to adjust DPI on demand are great for this). The mouse is very smooth, the left and right click as well as the other buttons all have a great feel to them. I play games that require a very high CPM, so I am jamming on the right click constantly, probably at least 100 times per minute, and it is always responsive and catches every click with ease. The mouse wheel works fine, I have no issue with it… Not much to say here other than that it functions as it should.
TL;DR: Both the keyboard and mouse are worth the price alone IMO, to get both for the price is just icing on the cake. I am highly satisfied with my purchase and would strongly recommend this combo to anyone. I have already recommended it to friends if they should ever need an economic solution to replacing any of the gaming keyboards/mice.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid entry level gaming keyboard
If you’re looking for an affordable and reliable entry level keyboard+mouse combo then I would definitely recommend going with this RedDragon keyboard, I recently upgraded to a corsair keyboard but stuck with this one for a couple months.
I got myself this keyboard and mouse combo not long before I got my first ever gaming PC I wasn’t looking to spend too much on a keyboard quite yet so I opted to go for the this RedDragon, it certainly does its job and holds up pretty well the keys are relatively quiet and I haven’t noticed much input lag. The mouse is also comfortable to use and has a nice amount of weight to it. Some of my few gripes are that I wish the keys were positioned a bit differently I kept finding myself accidentally hitting certain keys I didn’t mean to every now and then and I also do wish that the keyboard felt a bit more high-quality in my opinion the material makes it feel a bit cheap.
Summary
Pros:
☑️Cost effective
☑️Minimal lag
☑️Comfortable mouse
☑️Keys are quiet
Cons:
☑️Cheap feeling material
☑️Key positioning
☑️Not many RGB options

5.0 out of 5 stars Need a super keyboard and mouse for under $30? (2020 update)
If you can spare two USB ports, this set is a fantastic bargain. Maybe there’s more customization on more expensive gaming keyboards – this is my first step into the field. However, everything works great and I honestly have no complaints. It exceeded my expectations so far (A month or two of use so far).
2020 Update:
I liked my first Redragon set enough to buy a second set for at work. The price is still right, and everything still looks and feels great. A few things have changed, though.
The keyboard is now RGB backlit rather than plain unlit keys with red LED embellishments. There are FN controls to regulate the “breathing” (light-dark pulsing) of the keyboard, which is good because I found it distracting. The included instruction booklet lists these key combinations. FN+END pauses and unpauses breathing. FN+PGDN enables and disables the backlight entirely. FN+PGUP rotates through 3 still rainbow lighting arrangements. FN+HOME rotates through 7 monochromatic colors (white, blue, red, green, purple, yellow, and cyan). FN+INS smoothly transitions through the 7 colors over the course of a few seconds, though to my eyes the brightness was uneven. FN+UP and FN+DN scale through 4 levels of brightness, and FN+LEFT and FN+RIGHT scale through 4 speeds of animation.
For my money, the backlight will be kept motionless on a monochrome light, but to each their own.
All told, very happy with the keyboard. It also features two new sets of buttons above the F-row, which are oddly not backlit. The set to left of center includes links to My Computer, Search, Refresh, Email, Calculator, and Home Page. The keys to the right are media controls for Stop, Last Track, Play/Pause, and Next Track. These are all fine, but unnecessary since the F-row already has FN shortcuts to most of these things, and the topmost row, again, isn’t backlit.
And we have the mouse. It feels identical to the previous mouse, though it has 4 DPI settings rather than 3. There’s a catch though, which is that the mouse backlight (red only) is set to “breathe” by default. To disable this, you’ll need to download software from the Redragon support page. Although my mouse and keyboard both list their parts # as S101-3, the mouse is actually a M601-3 CENTROPHORUS. You’ll need to download the drivers for this mouse in order to disable breathing. All the way left on the software’s slider will disable the light fully, and all the way right will leave it permanently backlit (my preference). The other new thing with the mouse is that a LED flashes when you change DPI; it’s flash speed correlating to how high the DPI is. It seems unnecessary but harmless.
All told, my first impression is that the addition of pulsing lights just makes first time setup harder as you need to track down the software for the mouse and learn the keyboard controls. I want to take off a half point for the mouse not having a hardware option to disable the light, but all told I’ll keep my rating at a 5 as the backlit keys are actually an improvement once you learn how to freeze them.
*****
2023 update – I deep cleaned the mouse some time ago and since it was beginning to wear off, I removed the painted black dragon silhouette from the mouse where the palm lies, revealing clear plastic underneath. Don’t do that. The reason being, that my palm has slowly developed an irritation which has lasted weeks directly where that LED is closest when holding the mouse. I just now connected the dots and opened it again to insert some paper on top of it, but if my hand doesn’t clear up within a week I’ll remove the LED entirely and see if that helps. (Photo doesn’t really do justice to the palm, but anyway trust me it’s not great to keep LEDs millimeters from your skin without filtration of some kind.)
I’ll update if this does/doesn’t resolve things.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Keyboard | QUALITY | Best Bang for your buck!
So, I am writing this review about 2 years later after first purchasing this particular duo. I am literally typing with it now. lol
Now, I have to say that for the money you spend on this it is DEFINITELY worth it. I have had this combo for over 2 years now and it is still holding up strong. I have practically beat this keyboard and mouse into the dirt with the multiple moves from state to state the last couple years, dragging it in the Semi truck with me while I was an OTR trucker, dropping it, spilling drinks on it, getting gunky yucky food on it (all of which I HIGHLY recommend you DO NOT DO btw!) But through all of the abuse, albeit inconsistent and no overly violent, but rather a moderate and regular abuse of the product, it is still holding up strong as ever!
With this being said, I HIGHLY recommend this product and highly praise yall for this product as it was built to last!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than I expected, I love it!
I bought this keyboard to replace my old Havit which had the lighting keys. This Reddragon I bought this in a hurry, and I’m so glad I did, it is beautiful, and I love how it types, the typing is so soft and easy, and the cord is a very nice length. To be honest it’s way more than I expected for such a cheap price. I love the lights and different styles. I haven’t used the mouse that came with it yet, but it looks nice. If you need a new keyboard you can’t go wrong with this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the money
I have had many keyboards and this is one of the best. I bought a similar keyboard different brand and the feel doesn’t compare well to Redragon. There are no sharp lines on the palm rest area at the bottom making it much more comfortable. I also appreciate the option to turn off the rainbow and flashing backlights and just have a single color non flashing, non breathing backlight. I also prefer the feeling of a membrane keyboard over mechanical clicking. The next keyboard I get will be Redragon.

4.0 out of 5 stars Could have been better
For those that really don’t like a lot of feel while typing this is a good keyboard. In fact, it would be inappropriate to say under any circumstances, that it was less than a good keyboard. So what is wrong? First of all, the keys “feel” closer together, so I find I am having to relearn how to use a keyboard. Second, unless you have a very well lit room, you have to have the keyboard lit up as the key top printing is so dark, you can’t really see the letters, etc., on the key facings. And you have to have the brightness all the way up.
And then there is the mouse. For a strictly right handed user, the buttons on the side of the mouse are probably fine, but they are a nuisance for a left handed user. IF they could be just turned off, that would be far better, but the very limited “manual” only covers changing the DPI setting. It says you can make changes through the software after downloading and installing it but fails to tell you where to download it from. It’s not in the manual, so I will have to use a search to find the company’s website. Ooops, it’s on the box, not that it matters, really, since there is no . It will be interesting to see if the “software” is in any other form other than for Windows. I dual boot with Windows and Linux, so I am hoping that there is also Linux software support. Nope, Windows only. Figures.
I’d like to amend this review. For a left handed person, one that actually mouses with the left hand, this mouse is damn near useless because of the buttons on the side. It is almost impossible not to touch them while you are doing something. The setup file may allow you to disable them in Windows, but the setup file is ONLY for windows, so if you are using the mouse with a different OS, such as Linux, you are stuck with the useless buttons.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cheap keyboard and Mouse Combo
I been using relatively inexpensive mice for awhile and I just needed a new one and saw these and thought might as well give it a shot. I needed a keyboard and a new mouse anyway. I been using both for the last few days and I found the keyboard to feel very squishy when typing, its not a deal breaker for me but just bear that in mind. The mouse is fine and it has this button to adjust the sensitivity and every time you plug it in, it always starts at the lowest setting. For a cheap keyboard and mouse it isn’t bad at all. I may eventually replace them and keep these as backups but we shall see.

Good Back-LightingI searched pretty extensively on Amazon to find/land on this keyboard for laptop at a reasonable price. I wanted a keyboard with good back-lighting in white that is easy to see under low lighting conditions, but I like it that there are multiple back-light color options. The keyboard is great for accessing laptop more comfortably and when sitting on couch with keyboard in lap. I can see where the blue and red might also be useful for different lighting conditions. The mouse was a bonus for me and it is a very ergonomic and comfortable mouse – better than the expensive Logitech mouse I was using. I’d rather have the wireless version of the keyboard and mouse combo, but this product gets the job done satisfactorily.

With that in mind, I will say that this mouse is the second best mouse I have used. The DPI settings are nice, though for me the highest one is way too fast so I use the middle setting normally, and the lowest setting for precision such as sniping (the buttons on top of the mouse to adjust DPI on demand are great for this). The mouse is very smooth, the left and right click as well as the other buttons all have a great feel to them. I play games that require a very high CPM, so I am jamming on the right click constantly, probably at least 100 times per minute, and it is always responsive and catches every click with ease. The mouse wheel works fine, I have no issue with it… Not much to say here other than that it functions as it should.
TL;DR: Both the keyboard and mouse are worth the price alone IMO, to get both for the price is just icing on the cake. I am highly satisfied with my purchase and would strongly recommend this combo to anyone. I have already recommended it to friends if they should ever need an economic solution to replacing any of the gaming keyboards/mice.

THE TRUTH About the Red Dragon S101 Gaming Keyboard (verified owner) –
Affordable and very nice RGB ComboI like the softness of the keyboard keys, it’s very silent while typing. The lights of the keyboard and mouse are great and adjustable, also, you can download the software for both keyboard and mouse in the Redragon official website to have a better customization and management.

Surprisingly a very good optionThe media could not be loaded. Coming from a Cynosa Radeon/ a super cheap mouse, this was a pleasant upgrade. I always heard Radeon was the go to brand for keyboards, but after reading a bunch of reviews I decided I didn’t really want to spend 100 on a keyboard at the moment, and it seemed even most 100 dollar keyboards had issues, so I wanted to give up. I ended up going with this, because it also came with a mouse and looked pretty nice. To be honest it seems most keyboards around this price if you can see the light on the letters, it’s barley visible, but this keyboard has very visible light. I don’t really care about having colors flash while I type like a disco, or whatever, so that doesn’t really matter to me, but the color options are still nice. I have sensitive eyes so I appreciate the options/ brightness options. I’d recommend this, although I see some reviews saying that theirs have issues, mine doesn’t seem to at all, a contributing factor may be how amazon works tend to package things, my keyboard solely came in it’s original packaging, which was a bit off putting but not the brands fault. Much quieter than my last keyboard, and buttons feel really smooth. However the image does show that the light can be seen through the keys, which is not the case. For me, I don’t really care for keyboards like that because I feel like I can never properly see the keys if they aren’t on, but I’m sure that can be modified. I’d recommend this!

Smooth as butterI wasn’t sure I’d like it, but it’s sleek, smooth and has plenty of options. The mouse feels great in my hand. A little small, but not uncomfortable

It's alrightI bought this back in 2021, only writing a review now. It’s an okay keyboard, I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. As much as I want to love it, it’s become very flakey as of late. Multiple keys randomly stop working and I often have to fight it to work properly. Never an issue with main keys for gaming, but is for things such as the windows key which I use to tab out of games. This is from an older keyboard so quality issues could be better or worse by now. I do love the mouse, its very sleek and absolutely no issues. Even the bottom of the mouse has designs on it which I adore.

Love love loveGot this keyboard to switch to a much quieter version of what I currently have. But I gotta say, it’s 100% better, Red Dragon is such an underrated brand. And the mouse is great too! There’s software in red dragons site to modify and manage custom settings for both the mouse and keyboard.

Best keyboardI haven’t used this for gaming yet but this is the best keyboard I’ve ever had. The keys are smooth, no clacking, no sticking. Very responsive. I didn’t even realize how much I disliked every other keyboard I have EVER used til this one, I assumed they were all obnoxious. I’m so glad I got this. Added bonus is that it is very cute and the lights flash different colors reminding me of Christmas. I usually use a wireless mouse but the wire is long and doesn’t get in my way so I really don’t notice. The price is excellent as well. Zero regrets buying this.

Love this keyboard! Tactile but quiet, and great for a home office and every day use!I love this keyboard! I actually bought two other keyboards before this one, and they were not what I expected, so my hopes were not high when I ordered this one. This keyboard is beautiful, works great, and changing the color schemes is very easy. The keys are tactile enough that when you press them, you know they have been pressed, but still very quiet! I use this keyboard in my home office every day, and am very happy with it!
Two downsides, but not enough of an issue to lower my rating:
1. The letters on each key do not light up. They’re a solid color and don’t change as shown in the pictures. It’s the lighting behind the keys that light up.
2. I didn’t care for the mouse, specifically the color and that it didn’t have the lighting options to match the keyboard.
Again, this keyboard is wonderful and I definitely recommend!

Redragon S101 Wired Gaming Keyboard and Mouse Combo (verified owner) –
Great gaming set when you’re on a budget!Needed a major upgrade on my keyboard and mouse I’ve had for a couple years and was looking for something that is of good quality and also decently priced. I’ve had another keyboard from the same brand and loved the mechanical feel to it and how compact it was, hence my interest in purchasing another one from this same brand and a much fuller keyboard. My last RedDragon keyboard has lasted me since 2017 and just broke in 2024.
When it arrived it was neatly packaged with a great presentation once you open it. It’s very lightweight and easy to install and connect well, just plug it in and you’re set! It does have different light settings for the keyboard, which you will be able to see in the manual. The keyboard I purchased were soft keys, although I wish I purchased the mechanical one – so be mindful on your preference of keys. The soft keys are very lightweight and easy to press, no issues. Keyboard quality is great for the price, and is perfect for my needs as I just need a keyboard that works and can handle simple gaming, not much expectations in terms of speed, performance, etc. Mouse is also great for the price, but don’t expect a high quality/pro mouse as there is a big difference when you feel it/use it. You can also adjust the mouse speed from the middle button as well. Overall you get a good deal with quality & affordability.
10/10, great option to choose for beginners, those who are looking for affordable sets, looking for a spare/backup set, or interested in giving as a gift. I would choose purchasing this over the cheaper in-store options since there are more reliable reviews for this product and can also vouch via my experience.

Excellent, and very good price.Nice and compact, yet has all keys, special functions and more!
Can change backlight color and display, I prefer steady red – awesome when working at night or dark room, as I often do.
Key press is soft, not a mechanical “click”.
Mouse has very good steady weighted and smooth feel.
I bought a second one for my other system!

Best budget gaming keyboard and mouse?This keyboard is completely silent, like completely. It feels nice to type on however does require some heavy fingers so just keep that in mind. Its extremely comfortable the bottom of the keyboard almost acts like a wrist rest and feels quite nice. The rgb isn’t extremely bright but its enough for some lighting and being somewhat customizable is nice to get whatever color you may want but you are pretty limited to what you can do. It does exactly what its supposed to do and this keyboard in particular lasts a looonnggg time. The only main downside is the keycaps are like a matte finish and it wears off fairly quickly so some start to look shiny after some use.

Good Back-LightingI searched pretty extensively on Amazon to find/land on this keyboard for laptop at a reasonable price. I wanted a keyboard with good back-lighting in white that is easy to see under low lighting conditions, but I like it that there are multiple back-light color options. The keyboard is great for accessing laptop more comfortably and when sitting on couch with keyboard in lap. I can see where the blue and red might also be useful for different lighting conditions. The mouse was a bonus for me and it is a very ergonomic and comfortable mouse – better than the expensive Logitech mouse I was using. I'd rather have the wireless version of the keyboard and mouse combo, but this product gets the job done satisfactorily.

Solid entry level gaming keyboardIf you're looking for an affordable and reliable entry level keyboard+mouse combo then I would definitely recommend going with this RedDragon keyboard, I recently upgraded to a corsair keyboard but stuck with this one for a couple months.
I got myself this keyboard and mouse combo not long before I got my first ever gaming PC I wasn't looking to spend too much on a keyboard quite yet so I opted to go for the this RedDragon, it certainly does its job and holds up pretty well the keys are relatively quiet and I haven't noticed much input lag. The mouse is also comfortable to use and has a nice amount of weight to it. Some of my few gripes are that I wish the keys were positioned a bit differently I kept finding myself accidentally hitting certain keys I didn't mean to every now and then and I also do wish that the keyboard felt a bit more high-quality in my opinion the material makes it feel a bit cheap.
Summary
Pros:
☑️Cost effective
☑️Minimal lag
☑️Comfortable mouse
☑️Keys are quiet
Cons:
☑️Cheap feeling material
☑️Key positioning
☑️Not many RGB options

Redragon S101 Wired Gaming Keyboard and Mouse Combo (verified owner) –
You cannot get a better keyboard and mouse combo in this price range, I am certain of it.Let me start by saying, I love this product. I can say with complete honesty, that I do not think you can find a better Mouse/Keyboard combo out there for the price ($27.99 with free 2-day shipping w/ my Prime subscription). Having said that, please understand that you are getting a mouse/keyboard combo on the cheap, and although in this case I don't necessarily agree with the "you get what you pay for" sentiment because this has far exceeded my expectations for the price, it is still a $30 combo so keep that in mind when purchasing as not to be disappointed if you are expecting this thing to walk your dog. It does not come with software, does not have macros, etc. (although it does have function keys for your basics like changing volume, media player play/pause, next track, etc.) In other words, it is not full of bells and whistles, but if you are just looking for a solid gaming combo for a low price than you really can't beat this combo.
The keyboard has a solid construction despite being all plastic, and the keys have great tactile feedback, probably the best I have experienced for a non-mechanical keyboard. It is precise and responsive. The one complain I have with the keyboard is something other reviewers have already mentioned; the enter key is that strange "tall" type that relocates the "" key next to it instead of above it. In my case this is not a big deal at all because I do not use that key often, but I could see it being a problem if I did so you will want to be aware. The ability to swap the arrow and WASD keys is neat, but for me it is just a gimmick as I always use WASD when gaming anyway. With the feet down, the keyboard sits at a nice angle and I have been able to game for periods of 4+ hours without any discomfort.
Moving on to the mouse, I bought this combo originally because my Logitech G9 I have been using for the last 5 years got spilled on, and shorted out. I loved that mouse and at the time I paid $70 for it when I bought it. Now that I am married and with a child, I do not have $70 to spend on a mouse, so I came to amazon to look for decent gaming mouse. My budget was $30. After some research I came across this combo. "#1 best selling keyboard and mouse combo on amazon?" I thought. I had never heard of this brand and 5 years ago when I bought my Logitech, there was no such thing as an off brand making a quality product so I was a bit skeptical at first. However, after reading the comments I thought… "What the hell, it's $30. I will give it a shot and if I am not thrilled, I can buy another one once I get my tax return". Now that I have rambled my story to you I will tell you how I feel about the mouse. Now, I will not lie… It is no G9. That mouse had the perfect set of weights and DPI settings that just felt amazing, but at $70 that was the expectation. With that in mind, I will say that this mouse is the second best mouse I have used. The DPI settings are nice, though for me the highest one is way too fast so I use the middle setting normally, and the lowest setting for precision such as sniping (the buttons on top of the mouse to adjust DPI on demand are great for this). The mouse is very smooth, the left and right click as well as the other buttons all have a great feel to them. I play games that require a very high CPM, so I am jamming on the right click constantly, probably at least 100 times per minute, and it is always responsive and catches every click with ease. The mouse wheel works fine, I have no issue with it… Not much to say here other than that it functions as it should.

I am highly satisfied with my purchase and would strongly recommend this combo to anyone. I have already recommended it to friends if they should ever need an economic solution to replacing any of the gaming keyboards/mice.

Need a super keyboard and mouse for under $30? (2020 update)If you can spare two USB ports, this set is a fantastic bargain. Maybe there's more customization on more expensive gaming keyboards – this is my first step into the field. However, everything works great and I honestly have no complaints. It exceeded my expectations so far (A month or two of use so far).
2020 Update:
I liked my first Redragon set enough to buy a second set for at work. The price is still right, and everything still looks and feels great. A few things have changed, though.
The keyboard is now RGB backlit rather than plain unlit keys with red LED embellishments. There are FN controls to regulate the "breathing" (light-dark pulsing) of the keyboard, which is good because I found it distracting. The included instruction booklet lists these key combinations. FN+END pauses and unpauses breathing. FN+PGDN enables and disables the backlight entirely. FN+PGUP rotates through 3 still rainbow lighting arrangements. FN+HOME rotates through 7 monochromatic colors (white, blue, red, green, purple, yellow, and cyan). FN+INS smoothly transitions through the 7 colors over the course of a few seconds, though to my eyes the brightness was uneven. FN+UP and FN+DN scale through 4 levels of brightness, and FN+LEFT and FN+RIGHT scale through 4 speeds of animation.
For my money, the backlight will be kept motionless on a monochrome light, but to each their own.
All told, very happy with the keyboard. It also features two new sets of buttons above the F-row, which are oddly not backlit. The set to left of center includes links to My Computer, Search, Refresh, Email, Calculator, and Home Page. The keys to the right are media controls for Stop, Last Track, Play/Pause, and Next Track. These are all fine, but unnecessary since the F-row already has FN shortcuts to most of these things, and the topmost row, again, isn't backlit.
And we have the mouse. It feels identical to the previous mouse, though it has 4 DPI settings rather than 3. There's a catch though, which is that the mouse backlight (red only) is set to "breathe" by default. To disable this, you'll need to download software from the Redragon support page. Although my mouse and keyboard both list their parts # as S101-3, the mouse is actually a M601-3 CENTROPHORUS. You'll need to download the drivers for this mouse in order to disable breathing. All the way left on the software's slider will disable the light fully, and all the way right will leave it permanently backlit (my preference). The other new thing with the mouse is that a LED flashes when you change DPI; it's flash speed correlating to how high the DPI is. It seems unnecessary but harmless.
All told, my first impression is that the addition of pulsing lights just makes first time setup harder as you need to track down the software for the mouse and learn the keyboard controls. I want to take off a half point for the mouse not having a hardware option to disable the light, but all told I'll keep my rating at a 5 as the backlit keys are actually an improvement once you learn how to freeze them.

2023 update – I deep cleaned the mouse some time ago and since it was beginning to wear off, I removed the painted black dragon silhouette from the mouse where the palm lies, revealing clear plastic underneath. Don't do that. The reason being, that my palm has slowly developed an irritation which has lasted weeks directly where that LED is closest when holding the mouse. I just now connected the dots and opened it again to insert some paper on top of it, but if my hand doesn't clear up within a week I'll remove the LED entirely and see if that helps. (Photo doesn't really do justice to the palm, but anyway trust me it's not great to keep LEDs millimeters from your skin without filtration of some kind.)
I'll update if this does/doesn't resolve things.

I got myself this keyboard and mouse combo not long before I got my first ever gaming PC I wasn't looking to spend too much on a keyboard quite yet so I opted to go for the this RedDragon, it certainly does its job and holds up pretty well the keys are relatively quiet and I haven't noticed much input lag. The mouse is also comfortable to use and has a nice amount of weight to it. Some of my few gripes are that I wish the keys were positioned a bit differently I kept finding myself accidentally hitting certain keys I didn't mean to every now and then and I also do wish that the keyboard felt a bit more high-quality in my opinion the material makes it feel a bit cheap.
Summary
Pros:
☑️Cost effective
☑️Minimal lag
☑️Comfortable mouse
☑️Keys are quiet
Cons:
☑️Cheap feeling material
☑️Key positioning
☑️Not many RGB options

Quality buildImpressed at the quality of this keyboard and mouse combo. Keys are very soft and quiet. Mouse very responsive and has many options for sensitivity. We're a gaming household and will be purchasing more from RedDragon. Thanks for making a quality product for a reasonable price!

Fantastic item.This item is as close to perfect as you can get! Keyboard looks slick, feels comfortable on the fingers and is nice and quiet.
The mouse looks awesome and feels great. I especially like the scroller, my finger grips it nicely and makes it easy to scroll without slipping off.
Better yet, the keyboard and mouse are nice and
Cheap and are fantastic quality.
Redragon is the go to brand!

You cannot get a better keyboard and mouse combo in this price range, I am certain of it.Let me start by saying, I love this product. I can say with complete honesty, that I do not think you can find a better Mouse/Keyboard combo out there for the price ($27.99 with free 2-day shipping w/ my Prime subscription). Having said that, please understand that you are getting a mouse/keyboard combo on the cheap, and although in this case I don't necessarily agree with the "you get what you pay for" sentiment because this has far exceeded my expectations for the price, it is still a $30 combo so keep that in mind when purchasing as not to be disappointed if you are expecting this thing to walk your dog. It does not come with software, does not have macros, etc. (although it does have function keys for your basics like changing volume, media player play/pause, next track, etc.) In other words, it is not full of bells and whistles, but if you are just looking for a solid gaming combo for a low price than you really can't beat this combo.
The keyboard has a solid construction despite being all plastic, and the keys have great tactile feedback, probably the best I have experienced for a non-mechanical keyboard. It is precise and responsive. The one complain I have with the keyboard is something other reviewers have already mentioned; the enter key is that strange "tall" type that relocates the "" key next to it instead of above it. In my case this is not a big deal at all because I do not use that key often, but I could see it being a problem if I did so you will want to be aware. The ability to swap the arrow and WASD keys is neat, but for me it is just a gimmick as I always use WASD when gaming anyway. With the feet down, the keyboard sits at a nice angle and I have been able to game for periods of 4+ hours without any discomfort.
Moving on to the mouse, I bought this combo originally because my Logitech G9 I have been using for the last 5 years got spilled on, and shorted out. I loved that mouse and at the time I paid $70 for it when I bought it. Now that I am married and with a child, I do not have $70 to spend on a mouse, so I came to amazon to look for decent gaming mouse. My budget was $30. After some research I came across this combo. "#1 best selling keyboard and mouse combo on amazon?" I thought. I had never heard of this brand and 5 years ago when I bought my Logitech, there was no such thing as an off brand making a quality product so I was a bit skeptical at first. However, after reading the comments I thought… "What the hell, it's $30. I will give it a shot and if I am not thrilled, I can buy another one once I get my tax return". Now that I have rambled my story to you I will tell you how I feel about the mouse. Now, I will not lie… It is no G9. That mouse had the perfect set of weights and DPI settings that just felt amazing, but at $70 that was the expectation. With that in mind, I will say that this mouse is the second best mouse I have used. The DPI settings are nice, though for me the highest one is way too fast so I use the middle setting normally, and the lowest setting for precision such as sniping (the buttons on top of the mouse to adjust DPI on demand are great for this). The mouse is very smooth, the left and right click as well as the other buttons all have a great feel to them. I play games that require a very high CPM, so I am jamming on the right click constantly, probably at least 100 times per minute, and it is always responsive and catches every click with ease. The mouse wheel works fine, I have no issue with it… Not much to say here other than that it functions as it should.
TL;DR: Both the keyboard and mouse are worth the price alone IMO, to get both for the price is just icing on the cake. I am highly satisfied with my purchase and would strongly recommend this combo to anyone. I have already recommended it to friends if they should ever need an economic solution to replacing any of the gaming keyboards/mice.
