Rapoo Ralemo Pre 5


Rapoo, the Chinese company that manufactures keyboards, mice, and wireless chargers has announced a new keyboard in China. The new keyboard is a fabric version of the Ralemo Pre 5 that had been announced before. Unlike the standard version of the Ralemo Pre 5 that has a polycarbonate body, this new one has fabric covering the space between the keys. It also comes in a single color variant – gray.

Apart from the change in materials, the Ralemo Pre 5 Fabric Edition has the same features as the standard version. The multi-device keyboard has pleated round keys with six backlight modes and four brightness adjustment levels.

The Ralemo Pre 5 Fabric Edition connects in four different modes. It has Bluetooth 3.0, Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, and a wired USB-C mode. Rapoo says that it is compatible with both Windows and macOS and can be connected to up to five devices at a time. There is no dedicated number pad but the keyboard has multimedia shortcuts.

There is a 4000mAh rechargeable lithium battery inside the keyboard and it has support for fast charging. A full charge takes four hours and it will last up to 13 days. The Ralemo Pre 5 Fabric Edition is priced at ¥ 599 (US$ 92), ¥ 100 (US$ 15) more than the standard version. Unfortunately, there is no info on availability. We also do not think it will be sold outside China.
