probably not.

#

surprisingly very surprisingly all companies have their poor quality products including such as asus

#

and poor customer support also, not uncommon at all for chinese companies

#

Product shillling is extremely common for other companies also

stupid question: which of these key switches sound the most like how a keyboard would sound in like a movie or cartoon from the late 90s early 2000s Blue, Red or Brown?

oh hmmm i can actually view blocked people’s messages

#

tbh i’d not listen to thocctober* he can’t even differenciate between simple marketting bias and reality. and also he is heavy topre fan.

#

and trolls regardless of what i say

#

it’s your preference buddy

#

nothing wrong there until you enforce your opinion to other people’s choices when they clearly don’t have the budget for one

#

yes, it bothers me when you recommend them something waaay off thier budget
there are some mechmembrane rubber dome alternatives they work on similiar/same principle but well, don’t feel the say way

#

but, they’re cheaper

#

yes, but alot of people don’t want to spend that much for a keyboard but rather would want better headphones for example

#

or just simply save

#

or they don’t want used

#

i’ve met people that straight up refused used gpus

rocky kernel
#

That‘s why I am asking which test kit to buy

#

Or should I buy each switch in singles?

#

Can tactile switches have a more ,,thock ‘‘ sound profile?

This is only compatible with some keyboards that support the Hall Effect. Not compatible with Cherry MX. Confirmed compatible keyboards are : Wooting 60HE, Corsair K70 MAX, and SteelSeries APEX PRO (Non-RGB) Keyboards without calibration will require re-adjustment of the trigger position as the input position may be sl

#

well, translate the page first, then ideally contact one of sellers you’d like to buy from, or get an agent that would provide you the shipping, if you can buy directly from taobao, sometimes it doesn’t allow you to ship to your chosen location. if you get an agent then tell them to decrease the packpage value to minimum possible. if it allows you to ship to your country that’d be great. it’s harder than ordering aliexpress for sure

customs are devils

sometimes i forgot to tell sellers to decrease packpage value and at the end a $120 keyboard ended up extra $60

they ask for keyboard;
you give them something way too off their budget
that’s their preference tbh…
no matter how good/bad topre it’s not an option when they state a certain budget point they can’t exceed or don’t want to. that is their preference.

And if you call those budget offrerings shitty that is a bad take. they’re certainly not unusable

nor bad

Bad for you. Not for them.

Keychron | Mechanical Keyboards for Mac, Windows and Android

Keychron Q6 Pro is a full metal QMK/VIA wireless mechanical keyboard. Customize any key or create macro commands through VIA software as usual, and connect the Q6 Pro with up to 3 devices through Bluetooth for seamless multitasking across Mac, Windows, and Linux. The Q6 Pro ISO comes with UK, German, Nordic, Swiss, French, and Spanish layouts.

#

or you mean DE layout?

though, i’d maybe not pay $210 for a keychron

currently have a ducky one (cherry brown switches) and a razer mamba

crisp patrol
#

tbh idrk any good mice outside of the viper 8k and dav3

but pulsar seems fine

sterile rock
#

the main issue I've had with razer is the scroll wheel doesn't work properly and it also develops a squeak

crisp patrol
#

stiff at first but when it was broken in it was smooth

#

some advice for mice in general is to avoid anything that is wired with a thick cable and anything heavy (over 80g)

#

although there is exception as some mice can be modded to use a lot thinner cable

sterile rock
#

i've had 2 that squeak now! and probably 3 when I scroll it'll have inputs of opposite directions

crisp patrol
#

my viper 8k uses an aftermarket cable and it's nice if you don't wanna worry about using a cable bungee

sterile rock
#

yeah, like i'll be scrolling down and there will be random inputs to scroll back up

even if it's just 1 notch

guessing a rotary encoder issue

I believe I asked about keyboards before here, but would the keychron v1 still be a good keyboard? Or is there a better keyboard for this price range (probably $50-75, roughly, going over within $10-15 is fine I would say, but not exactly preferable)? I wanna say I was suggested it before, I am in the us, so you can take that into consideration if it effects anything

Or I thought the v1 was about $75, from keychron website it’s $85 when it isn’t on sale

Doesn't epomaker rip off other designs or something? They are despised on r/mk apparently

#

Damn that side profile is pepeBigSmile

#

Fucking entry level pricing on these designs are amazing

#

I hope it sounds and feels as good as it looks

#

I swear, I feel as though qwertykeys has a major influence on design and pricing, they have proven repeatedly that you can have both cheap and quality design on mechs. Good design doesn't have to cost a small fortune.

#

The QK65/v2, the Neo65... all stellar boards for an affordable price. You can buy shittier gaming branded mechs for the cost of those

#

I'm not saying they had a hand in it, I'm just saying I feel like they influence it indirectly. I haven't bought a $400+ board since my Link65 and it's been a great board.

#

How so?

#

I only own 5 boards, 2 of which haven't come yet. Link65, Space65r3, Minerva, Bauer Lite, Salvation

#

I've not seen any issues on OL boards yet, and any that do I know OL and qwertykeys fix it fast.

#

Which is great

#

Also, not saying $400 boards suck, but I just appreciate that you can get a good board now at a more affordable price these days.

#

I'm excited for the Bauer Lite tbh, very interested in seeing how their injection molded ABS case fairs, especially with no weight for it (yet).

#

Hm, maybe i'm tired, what is alps again?

#

Oic, seen those, never knew that's what they were called haha

#

I would like to see more hall effect pcb options and switches as well

#

Also, thought that it was odd that OT didn't make the Lite pcb have any perkey and/or down/sidefiring RGB with the translucent cases. Told them if they offered it separately, it would be an instant buy for some of us

would these work

magic wolf
#

In fact, I try to avoid opening it up altogether

#

You aren’t doing anything with the switches and there’s no room for any sort of dampener maybe one layer of PE foam, and even if you do, you have to punch a bunch of holes into the foam for it to even mount

At most

Don’t bother, a desk Mat is more likely to do more than any sort of internal work.

That’s up to you there’s a lot of subjectivity here

It’s about a $10 difference

What would be the big advantages of having a knob? So I can get an idea of if I should get it or not

And the advantages of not having the knob

You know about via right?

open fulcrum

Not really

magic wolf

Ok guess not, it’s firmware keychrons come with to remap any key to anything

I’m pretty clueless with keyboard related stuff

magic wolf

And you can have any sort of layers you want, like my volume is Fn (Layer 1) up and down arrows

#

If want a knob to tune, volume get a knob, otherwise anything else on your keyboard can do volume

open fulcrum

Ahh ok, so I would probably save the money than, as I don’t see the volume knob being used as much by me

Because I don’t really adjust my volume much

so a bit of some context here, this is my mechanical keyboard and this is a wireless keyboard, but i'm not a fan of the wireless. when i'm using it with wire, there's this annoying charging indicator and it disrupts the whole flow of the RGB, this keyboard doesn't come with any firmware drivers nor this is a separate light to cover it with black electrical tape. could there be a way to make my own firmware to remove this entirely or is there anyway i can remove this? thank you so much in advance!

hello hello Keyboards, im on the lookout for something new.

realistically the only requirements I have are

  • MX Brown (or equivalent. I'd be completely fine with something stiffer/heavier) But that feel and sound profile is mandatory
  • full size, so numberpad please :)))
  • 200usd ish price point. (300 AUD)

per key rgb is not something that will make or break it, just plain white or blue LED is perfectly fine by me.
media keys would be a nice to have but again, not essential

hello, i've been recently looking at the nuphy air 75v2 (low profile, looks clean and from what I saw it was the best option for the price) but i've seen people wait 3-4 weeks for it. I was wondering if there was any other low profile keyboard thats under 120 euros that I should look into to? i've looked at the lofree flow and the keychron k3 pro (which I did ruled out because honestly I dont like the way it looks). Should I look at building my own?

Does it rlly matter that much if I get AliExpress parts for my keyboard rather than branded ones

brown or red switches are better for normal use/gaming

Like buttery in a way

Idk what the word is

I don’t want them to be thocky

But does it make that much difference? Other than sound I mean

# lethal fox yeah actually

if you want stock switches without having to lube them, check wuque’s offrering, they have one of the best pre-lube applications

#

or gateron yellows

#

x47

#

pretty sure there are more creamy switches if you’re looking for that, prolly even for cheaper but, those are good

#

gat yellows may have some lube leakage issues from the housings

#

from my experience

#

they are/were good for the price

#

there are just too many switches to pick from

onomatopoeia to describe sound is as braindead as you can get

sorry for not religiously watching hipyo and not knowing every dumbfuck term to describe sound

there's a reason why @patent belfry filtered all those terms in kbd

recommending everyone $200 boards because you like topre is even more hilarous

recommend a better $30 board then

yall seen my custom mouse?

it is also inside an altoids tin

bitter oar

i mean… you’ve said your monitor is 1ms despite that being a simple marketting bias while arguing over keyboard latency
also, yup it’s thei choice. if they ask for $50 why do you recommend them something over 200% price what they asked for

#

you’re pushing your preference over their preference being saving money

#

is that understandable?

#

maybe for you money isn’t an issue for but other people it is

#

they may want to save, or spend on other stuff like better headset or mice

#

wym

#

for who

#

they ask for $30-50 keyboard for example, why don’t give them the best at that range

#

and not pushing their budget higher

they a s k
is a preference. they probably want to upgrade their ewaste dell/hp keyboard that they pulled from office pc set

I feel like this chat needs a reset. It's feeling pretty toxic! It's ok that there are varying levels of budgets/interests into keyboards. A $400 keyboard isn't for everyone. For example, I'm looking for something around $100 that is readily available and feels and sounds nice right from the box - I shouldn't be shamed for not wanting to spend triple that amount to build my own. Can I afford it? yes. Do I want to spend that much for something I'm lightly interested in? no
