Let’s proceed this 75% keyboard sequence with one of the crucial inexpensive 75% wi-fi boards which have crossed my desk: after the aluminum Eclipse K720 Professional, right here is the same however plastic Redragon Behemoth K724 Professional. With full disassembly and teardown.
TLDR; The tri-mode wi-fi Redragon Behemoth K724 Professional is a totally constructed keyboard coming in a plastic housing. It is a very inexpensive mechanical keyboard ($63 with the KBDNEWS coupon code) with OLED display screen, rotary knob, per-key RGB lights, lovely double-shot keycap set, and first rate linear switches. Gaskets, flex cuts, and plenty of sound dampening layers, for a reasonable softness and quantity relating to typing expertise. The hotswap PCB and MX-compatible switches make the board considerably customizable regardless of the proprietary software program. All in all, the K724 Behemoth is a pleasant provide for these on a price range – not for keymap wizards although.
As you will see, I’ve eviscerated the K724 to the very core as normal. Try the total evaluation beneath for all the main points and full picture gallery on Imgur revealing its internals as effectively.
Disclaimer
Redragon was variety sufficient to ship me this evaluation unit totally free, which can introduce every kind of biases – each adverse and constructive in my expertise. Take all the things I write with a grain of salt.
Unboxing & Contents
The outer cardboard field of the Eclipse K720 Professional is fairly fancy , and there is a extra puritan however nonetheless silvery internal cardboard field too.
Contents:
- The K724 Behemoth Professional, pre-built with switches and keycaps.
- Fast-start information, Redragon sticker pack.
- 2.4GHz receiver (compartment within the case)
- easy USB cable (90 diploma connector)
- primary mixed instrument to take away keycaps and switches
- 4x spare switches (no additional caps for Mac)
Variants
The K724 is available in three shade variants: the identical matte black plastic high case, however with three completely different sorts of keycap units, and matching backside instances.
I opted for the “Black & Inexperienced” look, which comes with a teal keycap set and an identical darkish teal backside case shade. There’s additionally a gradient set with translucent entrance legends, and in addition a black one with translucent legends on high – for Canadian prospects solely, a minimum of in line with the word on the product web page.
As well as, there are two swap choices: Mint Mambo (40gF linear) and the at the moment unavailable Dragon Chant.
First impressions, design language
The plastic Eclipse K724 is similar to the aluminum K720 in some ways: form, format, and so on.
The Redragon brand on the left facet of the highest case generally is a bit intrusive, however in any other case I like this masculine and authoritative design and aesthetics, a comparatively easy form spiced up by some good cuts and rounded corners.
It is exhausting to face out in such a crowded market just like the 75% phase, and the K724 Behemoth apparently tries to attain this through the colourful OLED display screen, rotary knob, and the aggressive cuts right here and there.
Specs
- Format: 75%, 81 keys
- Keycaps: double-shot PBT, a excessive, sculpted, spherical profile
- Switches: Redragon branded Mint Mambo linears
- Typing angle: 3 levels + two-stage toes
- Construction: gasket mounting
- Stabilizers: plate mount (no screw-in stab help)
- PCB: hotswap, south-facing per-key RGB
- 1.41″ display screen
- rotary knob
- Connectivity: wired, 2.4G wi-fi, Bluetooth
- Software program help: restricted proprietary software program
- Battery 4000mAh
- Materials: plastic
- Dimensions: 13.19 x 5.55 x 1.46 inches
- Weight: 1.190g (vs the 1,592g alu K720)
Format
The 75% format is fairly customary. It means no numpad and no basic navigation cluster format both, nonetheless, you might have arrows, perform keys, full quantity row, and a part of the basic navigation keys.
It is a comparatively compact design (ANSI), that includes 81 keys, optimizing house whereas making certain that each one important features are simply accessible for brand new customers transitioning from e.g. a fullsize keyboard.
Many 75% keyboards characteristic just a few much less or extra keys. The 75% K724 Behemoth Professional, with its 81 keys, is just not cramped in any respect. The arrow cluster is simple to find when contact typing: there’s not simply the little hole on the left, it is truly properly offset the 1800 model – you aren’t getting misplaced when altering between the house row and arrows.
As well as, the K724 retains the hole between the F-groups – typically sacrificed by comparable boards. A bit narrower, however undoubtedly noticeable.
The additional column on the precise consists of 4 keys.
Keycaps
The “Black & Inexperienced” keycap set is moderately teal, nevertheless it seems to be very nice. It is a double-shot PBT set – the Redragon web site is shy about this truth for some motive.
I am not completely positive in regards to the keycap profile, perhaps someplace between MDA and SA, however let’s solely say that it is a sculpted, spherical one, comparatively excessive. With tiny dots indicating homing keys.
The legends are a bit too giant for my style, however good elegant strains. They resemble SA legends, however finer.
Legend consistency is okay. Truly, I might say it is nice basically, with only a few exceptions like Del vs PgUp, or 7 vs 8.
As regards to keycap compatibility, the 75% format needs to be extensively supported should you go for one thing completely different.
Switches
The switches are fantastic too, Redragon branded mild linear switches in a relaxed mild rose/inexperienced housing, with a extra vivid inexperienced stem. I might say that the wobble is common and acceptable, nonetheless, it is amplified by the excessive keycaps.
Information on this Mint Mambo swap is sparse:
- Actuation power: 40gF
- Pre-travel: 2.0mm
- Whole journey: 3.6mm
The switches really feel first rate, however the PCB options hotswap sockets anyway, so you are not restricted to the manufacturing facility setup in any respect. Try the trending community-favorite switches, or be happy to make use of your private favorites laying round.
Perhaps it is the plastic case, however I really feel that this setup would work higher with silent switches.
Construct high quality, construction, case
This board is comparatively mild, as it’s anticipated from a plastic case case. 1,190 g to be actual. Nearly half of my heaviest 75% keyboards, however nonetheless not too mild. It will not transfer round throughout a gaming session, not even mentioning much less demanding jobs.
The construct high quality is first rate. The entire thing feels large for a plastic board, with out being overly refined – which might be simply out of character with a gamer board like this mannequin.
Typing angle: default 3 levels, plus two-stage toes.
Disassembly? I have been actually spoiled by all of the easy-to-open ball-catch keyboards, however simply managed to disassemble this Redragon too – a minimum of the screws should not hidden.
Simply flip over your keyboard, and there will likely be 8 screws it’s a must to take away.
Construction & Mounting
The K724 Behemoth options gasket mounting (the gaskets are hooked up to the plate), nonetheless, this construction differs a bit from different gasket options because it makes use of a a lot tougher materials than normal. So I might say gaskets right here have a restricted impact. Delivering a crisp, very direct, clear typing really feel, so I can not actually really feel that a lot flexibility or softness – the overall hallmarks of gasket mounting.
Plate
The plate is totally clear PC, which is an unusual however good alternative. As well as, the plate options flex cuts for a softer typing really feel.
Plate-mount stabilizers, which work very properly, truly. That mentioned, they’re the identical wobbly stabs we have seen on the K720. There’s an enormous distinction although: there was one thing incorrect with the K720 stabs for positive, however these stabs on the K724 present a really good typing really feel regardless of the plate cutout being too giant once more, ensuing within the stabs shifting on the horizontal aircraft with out the keycaps. In motion, nonetheless, with keycaps conserving them in place and anchored to the switches, you’ll be able to’t inform there’s a difficulty beneath the floor.
PCB
The PCB is a part of the thick plate/foam/PCB sandwich, and it comes with hotswap sockets, south-facing per-key LEDs, and plenty of flex cuts.
The default stabs are plate mounted, and the the PCB would not help screw-in stabilizers because it lacks the required holes for them.
There are not any indicators of ISO-support both, nor stepped CapsLock, break up spacebar or every other format choices.
Show
LCD? OLED? TFT? These phrases are thrown round on the product web page and in varied supplies interchangeably.
Anyway, the 1.41″ shade display screen shows the date and time, battery degree, connection mode and CapsLock/NumLock standing. The K720 auto-synchronized with the host laptop’s clock on the primary use of the software program, the K724 displayed the proper date out of the field.
The show additionally serves as a instrument for adjusting varied settings – you’ll be able to navigate the menu through the rotary knob. As well as, you’ll be able to customise the display screen with pictures and animated gifs by utilizing the provided software program.
Rotary knob
The rotary encoder seems to be similar to the aluminum ones, however it’s plastic, truly. Its defaults features are reducing/rising of quantity, and urgent it serves for navigating the menu on the display screen – in distinction to the extra frequent mute performance on keyboards with out a display screen.
Backside & Weight
No fancy ornament weight, only a plain, uninterrupted backside with the darkish teal shade of the alpha part of the keycap set. The colour-matched backside is a small however good element. The K724 Behemoth Professional remains to be heavy sufficient to maintain the board grounded, and you do not typically stare on the backside of your keyboard, do you?
Sound & Sound dampening
Thick 3.5mm PO sandwich foam, IXPE swap foam, and PET sound pad.
Two extra layers within the backside case: a backside foam (with out cutouts for the hotswap sockets), and a thick silicon dampener to fill within the backside tray.
Along with the TPR gaskets and the versatile PC plate and PCB, I might count on a a lot softer and cozier typing really feel. In actuality, typing on the K724 remains to be comparatively direct – and comparatively loud as effectively, though extra silent in comparison with its alu K720 brother.
In my expertise, the most important issue affecting the keyboard’s sound is the floor beneath it – desk mat, naked desk, or something in between.
Lights
This keyboard is supplied with south-facing per-key RGB backlighting with loads of obtainable colours and patterns. You’ll be able to cycle by way of 18 preset choices through FN key combos, the dial/display screen, or you’ll be able to fine-tune it with the devoted software program.
Wi-fi
The Behemoth K724 Professional is a tri-mode wi-fi keyboard (Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4GHz wi-fi, and USB Sort-C wired connections) powered by a 4000mAh lithium battery.
The bodily connection mode selector swap on the left facet of the board, subsequent to the USB port, says ‘OFF’ as an alternative of ‘USB’ – unsure about full battery decoupling although. No bodily battery on-off key underneath any keycap.
Normal warning: Should you use your wi-fi K724 Behemoth Professional keyboard completely related, please learn this text about Constructed-in keyboard batteries and how you can keep away from hearth – for particulars, suggestions, and horror tales.
Principally, conserving the board plugged in always could result in accelerated degradation of the lithium battery. You must comply with correct battery care practices, so it is best to take away, disconnect or swap off the battery should you do not want wi-fi performance. Examine the battery for swelling often, even when disconnected or eliminated.
The K724 Behemoth Professional would not make this course of straightforward. There is no bodily swap to disconnect the charging circuit and successfully isolating the battery from the PCB, so monitoring battery well being will likely be a problem.
Software program
Proprietary Redragon software program. I am not very fond of putting in unknown software program basically, particularly within the period of the quasi-standard QMK, VIA and Vial, and particularly one which makes my antivirus/firewall software program throwing up every kind of alerts.
I gave it a attempt when reviewing the K720, and now supposed that the options are the identical – with out putting in one other software program. Sorry.
It’s best to have the ability to customise your keymap by downloading and putting in the driving force right here (down beneath on the web page). Effectively, solely in case you are on Home windows.
Some letters swapped
Swapping letters or symbols ought to work as normal, it is fairly easy. Nonetheless, there is no method to implement SpaceFN due to the dearth of layer mod-tap features. In principle, there are further layers, however you’ll be able to solely entry them through the devoted FN1 and FN2 keycodes.
I attempted utilizing the CapsLock because the layer toggle, however Area would make a lot extra sense. A single, easy-to-access SpaceFN layer is essential for a lot of customers as you possibly can put arrows, navigation and numbers underneath your fingertips. For this impact, you will should resort to third-party options with the Behemoth K724 Professional.
Portability
The Behemoth K724 Professional is a superb board for stationary use, but in addition if portability is your major concern. It is a lot lighter than an aluminum keyboard, its wi-fi options make it cell in principle, and being extra compact than a fullsize board helps too. That mentioned, I personally would journey with one thing even smaller.
Comparability
From all of the 75% keyboards, the K724 is likely one of the most inexpensive choices with its worth of simply $63 (utilizing the KBDNEWS coupon code).
It would not make a lot sense to check it to extra expensive and fancy aluminum boards just like the Evo75, Dry Studio Battleye or Womier ERA75.
Perhaps the alu Redragon K720 from the model’s line-up, for apparent causes: the K720 is heftier, it options good facet mild strips, and is significantly louder in my expertise.
Different plastic 75% boards, typically within the $80-90 vary and even beneath, are quite a few. Try the foolish KiiBOOM Phantom81, the Epomaker RT82 for a retro look with show, or the Womier SK80 Professional Kanagawa – additionally with show and a bundle with matching wrist relaxation and mouse pad.
Should you goal for the bottom worth, the Kemove’s Dierya DK81E was probably the most inexpensive among the many plastic 75% boards, a minimum of from the samples I had the possibility to evaluation: wired, with encoder however no show.
Conclusion
The 75% wi-fi Redragon Behemoth K724 Professional is a really inexpensive pre-built mechanical keyboard with highlights like the good double-shot keycap set, OLED show, and rotary knob. The Redragon-branded Mint Mambo switches are first rate linears. The out-of-the-box typing expertise might be improved, it is nonetheless a bit too lound for my style, nevertheless it relies upon rather a lot on what it is sitting on. In any other case this can be a nice provide should you’re on a price range, nonetheless, the proprietary software program make it much less interesting for actual keymap wizards.
