    So excited! I have multiple OL/QK/Neo boards and they are all my favorites! Just can't decided if I want purple with clack or this with thock... I'll probably replaced the switches with Nixies anyway so it's more a colorway decision. It's wroth noting that this has the same 18mm front height as the Neo80 which to me is one of the best typing keyboards ever! Most thorough review I have seen so far, thanks Lewis!!!

      I got mine today, fastest delivery from QK ever! While the dye sub caps were nice I put my KBDfans Sabarushi on it and now it's simply perfect. Found my new main! I did go FR4/Azure and it sounds great! Switches are a little light for me but are so smooth I''m going to try them for a few days. If they don't grow on me I'll go Xinhia Heavy or Nixies. I have Tactiles in most boards but heavy linears in my QK75n and Neo80 and they fit well on those boards. The Azure sound VERY similar to Xinhai.

      @@DreamingPhenom yeah I'm happy haha, prefer the design I have. Tho if design wasn't a factor id go for evo80 because the options are very clear cut in clicky and thocky profiles. The thock on evo80 sounds more right for me if we base off all the videos and sound tests available.
      Crush80 I somehow got the alpha version (the version that was only sold in china before they did the beta and the reboot) so my experience w the current crush80s u can get won't be the same.
      Bridge 75 is pretty solid, the ball catch opening puts it above the rainy75, tho I love my rainy 75 and don't plan to open it up haha

      @@shadowvampwolf Awesome, glad to hear that you like it. Is there a significant difference between the alpha version and the Pro Reboot that is on their official website now? I couldn't decide between the current Crush80, Evo80, ND75, NuPhy Gem80 and Bridge75 Plus. But I just ordered the Bridge for it being slightly smaller (lower front & back), with angled bottom bezels (looks cool, and might be comfier?) although it doesn't have the rounded edges that Evo80 has. Other than that, every single board seems near perfect for what they offer, with slight differences in sound, keycaps/switches and arbitrary features. So hopefully the Bridge75 Plus doesn't disappoint
