Hey, I want to buy Redragon ARYAMAN K569 (it comes with Outemu blue switches). I wanted to ask if it's possible to replace a few switches in it with other switches? (like i want to replace one Outemu blue switch with Cherry MX Red). Is that doable easily?

Any answer would be appreciated. Please ask your friends if they have this keyboard and if its possible

Easy? No. You would need to learn soldering and how to desolder a switch — and that is not always easy without damaging the board. The simplest equipment needed would be a soldering iron, a solder sucker and a copper-wire braid, ... unless you would have access to better equipment through perhaps a Makerspace.

There are several videos on Youtube about Desoldering keyboard switches. I would look at them to see how it's done.
Then maybe practice on some scrap electronics before touching the keyboard.
