The final upgrade feels really good 🤩
Whoa! The keyboard sound was so satisfying after the final upgrade
I know right!
Great work on the keyboard!
Good work there, its a great hobby to get into as you're always chasing that perfect sound and as new switches and caps become available you have to try those as well :)
Thanks! It’s very expensive too..
Nice,,,Dude watching your Video is so satisfying... ❤️
intro transition looking real clean! keep up the keeb content!!!
Appreciate that!
You are underrated brother.🤗🤗
The thing that surprised me the most with my Keychron K6 is how nice the actual stock stabilizers can sound just by adding some lube/dielectric grease to them. I also added a thin layer of band aid right at the point where the stabilizer connects to the plate and they sound really good.
yo where did u get the mousemat? great video btw!
I modded my *K6 Pro* with a 3-layer tempest mod, 2 layers of super thin anti-static foam and topped it off with Gateron Oil King for that deep *thock*
Also the space stab effing sucks, a lot of thick grease but still kinda rattley, so a some bandaids inside the cap helped a bit.. but that also took away some of the travel
I'm deep deep into this hobby and have multiple very expensive keyboards, but yet I'm typing this on my very first one the Keychron k6. I have tealios v2 switches in mine with some kinetic labs seal pbt keycaps. It's just a solid board. It's not my best sounding or feeling for that matter. Somehow it always seems to find it's way back to my desk as my daily driver.
That’s awesome!
Did you get the switches when they weren't factory lubed? It says on kineticlabs that they are delivered pre lubed
Sounds good! What's your wallpaper at 6:30, bro
I will check it for you when I’m at my desk again. But I’m sure someone in the Discord is faster if you ask there!
Oof, sounds so good, yet sooo much work for me to even think about doing it on my k6 😅
Yea, I mean, you gotta enjoy the process. That's the only way to make it bearable
Very very coooooool
Hey! Just wondering, is this the aluminum or non aluminum version?
Cool
yooo nice video, btw what is the name of the typing trainer in the beginning thanks
That one is a little coding on codepen, but I recommend monkeytype.com. If you want I can still look for the link to the first one.
u dont have to look for it but if you find it it would be nice to tell... thanks alot
@@Luco.26 alrighty, will put it on my to-do list. Quick side note, an official 8K How to Creative wallpaper pack is releasing next week.
@@felixkruip oh that really sounds nice I will set an alarm. thanks for the fast replies
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

I think you put the spacebar upside down. I may be wrong
Funny that you noticed it, I thought about explaining it in the video. I do it so that my thumb is more comfortable and it does not hit the corner from that angle. It’s also better for when I type, since I won’t accidentally hit the spacebar with one of my fingers when I reach for the lower row of keys.
which typing test website or software you were using?
Monkeytype.com
How much pin does keychron switch has
Mechanical keyboards drive me nuts, and I don't understand the craze about them. They're so noisy! But, I respect your effort and enthusiasm.
And I respect that you clicked on the video and tried to understand what the fuzz is about.
Where'd you get the first set of keycaps?
AliExpress, link in the description.
Is the spacebar upside down? And if so is this on purpose?
Haha yea, it’s on purpose. A lot more comfortable in my opinion.
Do you or anyone watching now, know if all versios are 5-pin hotswappable PCB's? Found one new auctioned of for quite cheap, so looking into the specs of it atm. The listing does not specify which model it is, just "Keychron K6 RGB Aluminium Gateron Brown Switch" (or with Red Gateron).
Sounds like it is the standard version (not hot-swappable).
@@felixkruip Its starting to sound like it tbh. Do you happen to still have the box left of the K6? I've found out the hotswap models product code starts with an X or X0 atleast
@@lolrobin Nope, don't have the box anymore. I've also switched to NuPhy Halo65.
Is that space bar normal? If never seen it flipped over like this. Looks kinda cool😁
Not normal, but just a quick trick to make it feel better. Just flip it!
@@felixkruip ah okay ill try it thx
Wow it feels so mutch better
Cool
