What the Q61 V2 is and who it suits

The Redragon Q61 V2 is a compact 60 percent mechanical keyboard aimed at gamers and typists who want a smaller footprint without losing a dedicated volume knob. It connects through USB when wired and also offers wireless freedom via Bluetooth for use with Windows 98 or later and Mac systems. The hot-swappable design lets you change switches without soldering, and the gasket mount aims to give a creamy, thocky typing feel.

Behaviour during long sessions

The board runs from a built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery and can also operate while plugged into USB power, so extended gaming or work periods are not interrupted by charging cycles. Tactile switches provide a noticeable bump on each keystroke, helping maintain rhythm during rapid input. PBT keycaps resist shine and wear over time, keeping the legends clear and the surface texture consistent through heavy daily use.

Build cues and daily connector reality

A CNC-machined metal volume knob sits at the top right, giving tactile control without reaching for software sliders. The 60 percent layout omits the function row, navigation cluster and numpad, so users who rely on dedicated arrow keys or a numeric pad will need to use layer shortcuts instead. Key remapping and lighting customisation are handled through QMK/VIA software, though remapping itself is only possible while the keyboard is in wired mode.

Questions about this item

How loud are the tactile switches and does the gasket mount keep the board quiet during long sessions?

The tactile switches produce a creamy, thocky sound that the gasket mount and PBT keycaps help dampen, so the board stays relatively quiet even after hours of use.

What ports or adapters must my computer already have to use the keyboard in all three modes?

You need a free USB-A port for wired operation or charging, plus built-in Bluetooth for the wireless mode; no separate receiver is included.

Will the QMK/VIA key remapping I do on a modern Windows PC carry over when I plug the board into an older Windows 98 machine?

Remapping is only possible in wired mode, but once saved the layout works on any supported OS, including Windows 98 or later, without re-programming.
