Hey, it’s Sam here. In this video I’m checking out something I honestly didn’t expect to see on a budget board—an “AI keyboard.” This is the Royal Kludge F99 AI, a 96% (100-key exploded layout) wired mechanical keyboard that’s priced around $80 and only comes in a black-and-white colorway. I go through the unboxing, what you get in the box, and the overall design changes versus the older F99 I reviewed before—most noticeably the dedicated RK-AI button and all the AI functions printed right on the keycaps. I also break down the core keyboard stuff that actually matters: Cherry profile double-shot PBT keycaps, pre-lubed Royal Kludge Cream linear switches, plate-mounted stabs (with a bit of rattle), a tray-mounted steel plate, and a 5-pin hot-swap north-facing PCB with per-key RGB. Then I test the RK AI software features—AI chat, writing tools, PowerPoint generation, image generation, and the AI assistant tools like grammar checks, summaries, translations, and emails. After using it, I’d say it’s interesting but not everything is useful; voice typing is the standout for me. I end with a sound test and my final thoughts: as a keyboard it’s a solid budget pick, and the AI features can genuinely help if you’re a student or office user who leans on these tools daily.
