    I'd like to recommend a transparent list on the side of the video telling the audience (mostly targeted at beginners) which way you're talking about. The whole video was great, but I was expecting it to be mostly about "the ways to buy a keyboard."
    My opinion though. I'm not a beginner in custom mechanical keyboards, but I still got lost halfway through (good for engagement since newbies rewind, but they may also be turned off at the pacing). Subbed to see how this channel evolves, loving the bossa nova theme and just the general vibe of the channel.

    Hey Avi, I am really impressed with your videos and really like your style and editing! I got here from your qk65 review, which was posted on the qwertykeys discord channel. When you mentioned, you wished for a video like this, when you were getting into the hobby, I had to think about how I was looking for wireless enthusiast boards from the very beginning and still am. Do you know why they are so rare? Or is there a way of adding like a module to a pcb to turn the keyboard wireless? Anyway, hope you are having a great Sunday!

    • @AvinashKunjamboo
      @AvinashKunjamboo  2 роки тому +1

      Hey mate, I really appreciate the kind words! Also stoked it was posted on the QK Discord, had no idea haha. I've also been wondering this about the wireless keyboards! From my understanding, it's got something to do with a licensing/compatibility issue with bluetooth itself. I don't think popular keyboard mapping software like QMK and VIA are very well optimised for bluetooth. This is just what I understand though from doing a lot of digging myself. Check out the Zoom65 if you're still in the market, I think that one is bluetooth ready! If you do find the answer, let me know haha I'd love to make my keyboards wireless

      @sparkplugbarrens 2 роки тому

      @@AvinashKunjamboo Oh I didn't know the zoom65 had a wireless mode, that's a really good tip! I also like that it has a volume knob. I was going to get the qk65, because I think it sounds better... lets see, whether I can justify buying two keyboards in one month 😅 Anyway, looking forward to your next video! :)
