    I bought the 1.6mm non-flexcut pcb version from Dangkeebs as a pre-order. I'm glad they have the option! So much about this keyboard is like lower priced custom keyboards, such as Zoom, QK, Neo, and TKD. I can't wait to try mine out!

      Hey quick question, if you check wobkeys website you can pre order a keyboard and it says it will be fulfilled before June. Do you think it’s a legit website? Everything I’ve checked says it’s legit but I’m scared at throwing 130$ at a website I know nothing about lol I wanna trust wobkey

    • @MarbsMusic

      So I got my ND75 in today, while not as poppy I find the feel very similar to the Rainy75 (standard). I do like how easy it is to get into it though. Out of those and the Lemokey P1 and the AL75 they are all pretty phenomenal for the price and all have pluses and minuses but the AL75 is about 2mm, maybe 3mm, lower in the front than the others. While it does have less of angle than I would prefer, that initial height means it's super easy for me to use with out a wrist rest and as a tactile guy I really love the Yunzii Blue Grey switch. Overall though I don't think anyone could go wrong getting one of these 2024 AL keyboards for somewhere around $100... amazing quality for the price! Colorwise I think the ND wins though, I got the purple and it's simply stunning! Was going to put Osume dusk on it but the included caps are much nicer than expected!

    Wow, lots of newer features in a sub (USD) $100 keyboard. Still waiting on my Rainy75's and pissed at how WOBKey prioritized vendors and aliexpress over its actual backers. Would you choose this over the Rainy75? Only downside for me seems to be now VIA support.

      @@grimacetv I just watched Hipyo's video on the Chillkey and feel the Rainy75 is definitely better. The VIA support for me is huge, the screen on this thing looks cheap (if you want a better screen UI get a QK or Zoom) and sounds horrible if you like a foamless build. The only thing I'd say this keyboard has on the Rainy is the screwless assembly, but that's a non-factor if you're not opening up your keyboard a lot (which I think most people who are in the budget keyboard field never will)

      @@itsyagirlapes I had those same feelings as well, I dont need via support currently but I understand the appeal. I was looking at both the zoom and qk75 but ended up just deciding that I'm happy with an upgrade from my keychron k2 to gasket mounting options and the screen albeit may not be the best will work fine for the simple stuff Im gonna program on it. I do like having the option of the pull off to relube after months if needed, and for cleaning.

      @@ZedBC It's often wrong and misleading. One of the main worldwide vendors of boards in this tier has free shipping and no sales tax at all. So for a board like this ND75, if it isn't listed on there and not on Amz/Ali with free shipping either, then it is simply at a substantial competitive disadvantage.

      ​@@minhquanvu2944 Oh, I'm very conflicted with getting the flex cut or non flex cut version. What is like the difference. I am brand new so 😭. I see a lot of people buying flex cut because I assume non flex wasn't avaiable and I see any people wanted the non flex. Which is like better sounding, and has better feel ?

      @minhquanvu2944 9 днів тому +1

      @@Dragos3 flex cut make the sound between each key more even, offer a more bouncy typing experience, but you exchange it for a thinner 1.2mm and much more fragile PCB. The 1.2mm PCB creates thinner and weaker sound compared to 1.6mm PCB. Also due to all the flex cut, all that sound is gonna slip through and make the sound even more muted. To fix that, manufacturers put foam in there to seal off the chamber, but it can only sound foamy and can only sound good when being packed full of foams. Clacky is a no no for it.
      1.6mm PCB on the other hand, doesn't depend on foam. It can sound clacky, creamy or thocky however you want the sound to be. Putting foam in is still an option.
      1.2mm PCB can't make full travel switches sound good, especially Cherry switches. 1.6mm PCB can feel super rough if met with a very short travel, heavy tactile.
      So in conclusion, get the 1.6mm non flex cut, it offers you all except bounciness
