  • My review of the KiiBOOM Phantom 81 V2 with a typing sound test at the end!
    If you're into transparent tech, this is the one for you. The transparent keycaps reveal a set of transparent switches, while the transparent case highlights the design of the PCB and the gasket mounting. The fact that this keyboard sounds amazing out of the box is the cherry on top 😉​

      It's hard to find a bad one these days, most of them are good enough for the average user!

    ugh already owned a v1 in brown/amber, seconds into this video ordered the clear. these are amazing boards that punch well above their weight.

      Right??
      I didn't know about this board until the v2, but that brown/amber v1 actually looks reaaaally nice. Thank you for watching!

    I love that this is available on Amazon. Too many keyboards are only available on obscure sites known only to techie nerds. I hope this isn't sold out by the time I can afford one. 😂

      I see more keyboards these days moving to a perpetually in-stock model (either on Amazon or OEM websites), so hopefully in the future the ones available to only the techie nerds are more accessible to the mass market! The good thing is that these accessible boards are getting better all the time! Thank you for watching!

    I absolutely love this keyboard, I own the black-and-gold one and love the aesthetic.🤗 The RGB is soo dynamic and typing is smooth. My ownly issue is the letters don't Light up when the RGB is on so it's tough If you're not a touch typer. Other than that, highly recommended

    • @TAZAKEY
      @TAZAKEY  9 місяців тому

      Thank you for the comment!! I'm also really enjoying this keyboard - much more than I thought I would have initially! Surprisingly well-tuned even though its main draw seems to be its look.

    HAHA this video blinded me alot! In a good way kekeke.
    Looks great! You can't go wrong with actual per key RGB, not even when you try to innovate it more with translucent themed keycap/keyboard..! Looks so bright and the lighting on 5:30 looks pretty nice also, it's bussin 🥴. The look of the back of the board looks pretty clean, my favourite, kinda!!! Also, question, how's the gasket mount? Does it feel pretty sturdy, or too flexy than (insert gasket mounted keyboard name that you own XD)? Nice thoughts on the switches, its literally unseeable to see the pre lube job on them HAHAHAHAH
    goodjob on the video, keep up the good work as always, tazakeyy!!

      Tea! Thank you so much for watching!
      I never thought I would enjoy such a "bright" board.. but here I am playing around with the different lighting modes in the dark hahah..
      There is just a bit of flex with the gasket mount, but it still feels quite stiff. I didn't notice it at all during normal typing actually, so I think this gasket mount is more so for controlling the sound than for actually changing the typing experience. There's a looooot of lube on the switches, but they actually feel alright!

    Dam I actually really like this translucent look. I usually keep the rgb off on my keebs as well but having something like this!! It would be a crime to not have it on

    • @TAZAKEY
      @TAZAKEY  9 місяців тому

      Agreed!! The RGB is fun to play with, but keeping it off also looks really nice with the 90s translucent look! Thank you for watching 😁

    What is the knob for in the upper right hand corner of the keyboard?

    • @TAZAKEY
      @TAZAKEY  4 місяці тому

      The knob controls volume by default. When connected to Mac, I believe it opens Apple Music with the original programming.

    The Home key is present on the keyboard, but the End key isn't there. How can I use the End key?

      You can use the KiiBoom software to map it on a layer!

    Is there any chance the keyboard turning yellow in the future?

    • @TAZAKEY

      The case is made of acrylic, so it should be resistant to yellowing over time! I wouldn't be worried!

    No more brass plate? Such a shame

    • @TAZAKEY
      @TAZAKEY  7 місяців тому

      Unfortunately no, I think they went with a plate that's more neutral looking to emphasize the case tint. Sounds great though and I actually like the look. Thank you for commenting!
