This video is premium. And we don’t have to pay a dime for it. How lucky are we to enjoy this wonderful video that you have made. You are an inspiration, and I loved every second of this.
It's crazy how much work you put in the production quality of your videos. Every element, transition and even the music all rolls together to create such a tasteful video. I really hope that your channel grows exponentially. Such an underrated content creator.
thank you so so much! this one was such a challenge to get through but i'm so proud of how it turned out, and even more stoked that you enjoyed it! thanks again
Well done. In response to your description: If you feel the calling to make more content, outside of the keyboard space, I encourage it. Just always keep in mind *why* you want to do it. Keep creating Avi ✌🏽
The longest 10 minute video I've ever watched, and I adored every second of it. Loved the story telling on this, man how are metal rectangles making me feel this sort of way.
Premium in the keyboard space is defined as "If your keyboard has an AVI video" Avi swapping out the Jazz with Classic music near the end was Chef's kiss. Awesome vid as usual man
@@el10leo To each their own my guy. I'm a content creator myself that's why I enjoy these kinds of videos. Maybe you're just an average watcher that's why you're that into it.
just got around to this brother, fantastic. every single video gets more and more story like and it makes it so much easier to watch rather than an info overload and this one especially was worth the wait. diy diffusion sure did the trick LOL
This channel is so underrated. I love the overall concept of the video, plus how he defined "Premium" in a sense that everyone would be pleased and I agree with what you and your friends came up with! Keep making great quality content and videos man, your channel is PREMIUM.
I just ended up here in your channel in the midnight hours, falling down the classic youtube spiral while looking for QK80 reviews. This video is excellent in so many ways. It is so well thought out, edited, music transitions flowing together, great balance between being informative yet personal and amuzing. I want to ask this video to marry me! Thank you for doing this and sharing with us all. All the best!
I love how you tackled the topic of what is considered premium, because many people only consider a board premium if it comes with a high price tag. Like when people considered the PE foam sound of the Jelly Epoch a premium sound until the community realized that the PE foam sound was an attainable sound. The keyboard community has a habit of confusing price+scarcity with premium.
Because a high price is in the dictionary definition of premium, which I think actually reflects how this word is most frequently used. There are other words you can use if you don't want to imply a high price.
@@haomingli6175 Dictionary definition of premium would be around insurance policies, shares of a stock, an additional price added to the ordinary price of a good, etc. Not necessarily "HIGH" price. The truth is the term premium is just misused. If someone said they paid a "premium" for an aluminum case keyboard, or for tri-mode PCB, or for a knob, or for a PVD weight, or whatever then THAT would make sense. You are paying EXTRA over the ordinary price for something. That doesn't speak to the quality or even worth beyond monetary of that thing you paid a premium for. You might pay a premium for something that is actually of LOWER quality or makes the product WORSE. They are plenty of examples of that. In the end this is a problem with societies use of language, something that has continued to get worse over time.
Your videos really feel so different compared to other creators. I feel like I'm watching a movie. The music, the mid century modern feel and the documentary feels. I can't pinpoint exactly what but I find them enjoyable. More power to you!
i love your cinematography. it's like how you imagine things going in your head, vs. the reality is usually much less satisfying. this video somehow captures the feeling oi everything going right & as you imagined
Incredible video! Such a joy to watch and it brings up some great points about "premium" keyboards. I never thought about it with this perspective, but the idea of intention really does make sense. Also a weirdly great comparison between the QK boards and the Jane. I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos :)
I think for me, premium in the keyboard hobby is best embodied by focus. I think the common theme in budget boards that are “less premium” have a ‘one size fits all’ kinda approach, where they’re trying to make every potential customer happy and find something they can enjoy. Boards typically regarded as premium are laser focused on a purpose or a style or sound profile. Premium boards have an inspiration, or they have a specific one gimmick that makes it worthwhile to keep as a premium board. Things like QC and premium ano just can’t be the differentiating factor anymore, when QC has gotten so much better across the board.
Love your vid production. I subscribed. This craft is premium as we can feel so much thought was put into this. It’s not just, “hey guys here’s my build for blabla and this is the soundtest.” Other keyboard creators I followed since day 1 I got into the hobby have this template. And I’m starting to get tired of it. But I understand them. It takes so much time to create a good video. I wish more people will see your video. You are a good storyteller. Thank you for taking the time to give us content like this.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, but your videos are a huge inspiration for me, there are always so many things to learn from them... Congratulations on never failing to impress!!
2 things. I just wanted to watch a keyboard video but I did not expect to find: 1. The most beautifully written story ever about a keyboard. Honestly, the edits and cinematography is just top notch. Might I say premium. I would love to see your thought process on how you edit and storyline. Your attention to detail is beautiful. 2. I have been looking for a great board and I'm new to this keyboard scene. So I've just been searching up tkl. Now I know 80% is the key. Thank you for blessing us
Wow. What a lovely comment! Thanks so much for the kind words man, honestly means so so much and I'm glad you were also able to find some direction in your search!
Once again knocked the production quality out of the park!! I've heard the often true statement quality work speaks for itself in absence of advertising. It's got me wondering why you don't have a ton more subs? I hope you don't take the criminally underinflated numbers as lack of appreciation, cause this is some premium work. Wish you success dog!
This is arguably the best video about mechanical keyboard thingy that I have ever seen. The vibes, the feels, the musics, the topic itself, the taste and the aesthetic of your video and editing are pure *chef's kisses* !! My dude, please continue on (and more often) producing content for us. Please! Keyboards are very much welcome, topics other than mech-keebs also okay. Just keep on producing my man.
Love this so much man. There are already plenty of videos reviewing the board along with many config demos, so it’s definitely a treat seeing your take/format on it. I’m a big fan of the way you bring up a specific topic while using the board as the example. Keep up the fantastic work as always, looking forward to the next one!!🔥
I just found your channel this morning. You know what you're doing and it's a real pleasure to watch. I'd love to be able to film and edit like that. Instant sub, can't wait to see more
was it worth the wait? yes is this review and showcase video format for keyboards the best? yes Awesome as always... 🔥 keep the cameos going it's fun to hear everyone having input.
most premium thing her is this A24 studio level cinematography and editing, make a keyboard movie or something already im sure youll make it entertaining somehow lmaooo. keep it up!
This is a pretty good video essay about what "premium" is. I agree with the common conclusion as well, I think what makes a keyboard premium is the thought that went behind it and I definitely think that great ideas are worth more than CNC aluminum.
You know I’ve watched tons and tons of custom keyboard videos and this one is so unique and different. Maybe it’s the style of all your videos on your channel (I have to see for myself). But it felt like I was watching a documentary. Extremely well made! I’m so honored to have been able to watch a premium video like yours! 😊
Man I am binging your content and watched everything you've made twice. I would love to see more content from you even outside the usual keyboard stuff (the lighting video was amazing). But in general, I love your video man and I hope you have an awesome day!
I love how the main concept of this video was define "premium", and the edition of the video and sound is a example of it. Literally , Its winter in this side of world an this video warmed my hands.
Such a good video, Avi! Your vids continue to be my fave keeb content. Ironically because 80% boards remind me of the old cheap computer keyboards I grew up on, I actually view smaller formats like 65 and 75% as more premium, which just goes to show how at the end of the day it really is defined by personal preference! Loved the connection to thoughtfulness and intent, too. Can't wait to see what you got coming next.
Your videos, man, they are a joy to watch, and sometimes I find myself rewatching them over and over, just to experience the high production quality again. Please keep up the good work, always looking forward to the next video. Premium for me, means good and unique design and flexible build experience, at a reasonable price point. Just got my first custom keyboard called Paper75, and about to purchase a new one called Cycle7.
UA-cam just served up your channel to me and I'm blow away by the production quality and content. Everything is so well done. Do you have information out there about what gear you are using? I'd love to know!
Thank you mate! Assuming you mean camera gear? I'm shooting on a Fuji XH2s with just a Tamron 17-70 f/2.8. I go over my gear a bit more in my setup vid but I absolutely don't expect you to dig through that haha. Appreciate the kind words!
Holy. A full on keyboard movie. If I could rate this on letterboxd, I would give it 5 stars. Absolute blast; I have definitely watched this video more than once. God I can't wait for the next one!
10:47 for typing test
i thought something was off when it was near the end of the video lol
that was the clackiest thing I’ve ever heard
The last is always the best!
This video is premium. And we don’t have to pay a dime for it. How lucky are we to enjoy this wonderful video that you have made. You are an inspiration, and I loved every second of this.

Awesome vid as usual man
The editing, the color correction, the film noise, the sound effects, the titles, the music... Wow, you really have a talent! Keep it up.
thank you so so much!
Man, the flow of every video keeps getting better and better. It's inspiring almost. Awesome work as always!
eh. I feel making a keeb video look like some grandiose documentary is bordering into cringe territory but the effort is noticeable.
@@el10leo If you think this video is cringe then you have some questionable tastes. Go watch some tiktoks instead, I'm sure you'd appreciate them more

I really really really enjoyed watching it.
mr dbokey thank you very much, hope the wait was worth it haha
Not only did your production skill elevate but I loved the idea and narrative of exploring what premium really means. Incredible work!
thank you so much!
Man, you can just see how much thought and time went into this video, awesome video man!
So nice to have you back man. I missed your vids. Hopefully you upload more content. Looking forward to it!

i forgot how it feel to watch your latest videos after a while, feels refreshing, sir avi!
thank you my friend!!
Your videos really feel so different compared to other creators. I feel like I'm watching a movie. The music, the mid century modern feel and the documentary feels. I can't pinpoint exactly what but I find them enjoyable. More power to you!
WHY IS THIS VIDEO SO HIGH QUALITY???? I CAN NOT HAHAH
The background typing at 5:00 is such a nice touch
Awesome video bro! Now I'm even more excited for this board! Love seeing my boy Timothy's cameos. Haha!
Avi, you're my absolute favorite creator right now
you have no idea how much that means xris! thanks for stopping by as always
i love your cinematography. it's like how you imagine things going in your head, vs. the reality is usually much less satisfying. this video somehow captures the feeling oi everything going right & as you imagined
loving the edit Avi!
thank you so much alex!!! love having you here mate
This kind of video gives the reason why people gets hooked to the hobby. I enjoyed this!! You earned a fan.
thank you so much! welcome!
Loved the shot variation and colour grading and sound design....everything was smashed!!!
Yo what the hell this is the most cinematic thing I have ever experience. Masterpiece!
This is one of the best made videos I've maybe ever seen, I hope it gets you a lot of attention
thank you so so much!!!
god what a beautiful video, everything about it, the perfect pacing, the score, the commentary about the keyboard, and god how cinematic.

oh my lord, the way the video wraps itself nicely towards the end!
not the "end" end, but the end with the journal haha
thank u so much hahahaha. mulled over how to end everything for so long, i'm glad it stuck!

great quality video - editing, style, interviews. Dare I say this is a premium video?? amazing job man
