8:53 "Double-gasket" is what Keychron calls a combination of gasket mount and gaskets between the top and bottom case, which would usually be called force-break mod.
@@qwerty4561 keychron isnt doing the manufacturing itself, there are other manufacturers who do that, it was just the design work from keychron, which wasnt that great, designing a custom keyboard isnt extremely hard, but you need to have experience in the community, to even have a chance of designing something that isnt complete dogshit, sadly keychron just recolored a q1 pro
i love that people geeking out about mechanical keyboards is driving down the price and diversifying the market.. i bought a pok3r II when it first came out with cherry blues and backlit.. i soldered all of it.. now im looking to replace and really appreciate these reviews.. i love tactile but i wanna go like silent tactile..and definitely hot swap. thank you LTT/SC crew for the reviews
I like how keychron never settled even if they were on top of their game. They came out with more enthusiast level boards with their Q series and made them in all sizes and layouts
Why would they include home but not include end? Same goes for any 75% that choses not to use the full 6u height of the layout on the far right row; 65% is a bit more understandable if a knob is included but at the same time just alter the top row so that the knob isn't interfering with the columnar nav cluster. I do like the idea of the bar. So many keyboard have feet with terrible adjustment angles and typically they won't have rubber on them or only on the taller feet if there's two sets, whereas this not only has a better level of adjustment but it also has rubber at every possible adjustment, surprisingly the flat feet really aren't that great in comparison. I just wish they had a detent system or something to lock the bar in place if it does ever become loose, not to mention high friction hinges can become problematic when adjusting; it took us long enough to figure that out with laptops and even still the balance of friction in stability v adjustability is too fine for most manufacturers to care outside of this being a 'premium' feature. Though, I'd also like to see a bar at the front, some people prefer using a wrist pad, some people have standing desks with a lower surface or keyboard tray, the amount of extra adjustability is justifiable for next to no extra cost, whereas finding solutions around personal requirements if you don't have a standard setup are either expensive and/or jank; keyboard manufacturers could really be doing various niches some justice while not really increasing manufacturing costs, the only products I know of that have this level of adjustability are split ergos that can be tented but those also come with the niche tax.
So I just got this keyboard with the marble-mallow keycaps and I have to say this is one of the best keyboards I have ever owned! And I'm saying that coming from a Keychron Q1 pro. First off, it's no where near as tall as the Q1, so you get all the benefits of a Keychron Q1 but without the height and second, the keycaps are just a dream to type on. They have a very distinct textured feel to them. I would say its like typing on a soft piece of cardboard (texture wise) - and the summer breeze linear switches are completelty silent relative to Keychron red linear switched. OMG!!!! Is this keyboard the shit! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a top shelf high quality keyboard. aesthetics are top level and only sweeten the deal!!! 👍👍👍👍
totally, such a money grab product. like, besides the adjustable feet thingy and branding, there's no novelty that sets this apart from a Q1 Pro which is actually cheaper. I hope this doesn't become a trend for keychron
C'mon Plouffe you were giving off the whole "it's ok, but I wouldn't buy one" vibe the entire video. Then you said "it's pretty good" for $250??? You could build build, or buy, better boards for that amount these days.
major turn off for any keyboard, is when the board lights up, but not the characters on the keys. To me, the entire point of LEDs is to see they keys. So when the keys arent shine through, its an instant pass for me.
Lol switch the key caps to ones with shine through its like 15 bucks for a set of pudding key caps but most ppl that spend 200 plus on a keyboard are more looking for sound and feel than rgb
What's the point of hot swapping? It's not that you change key caps or switches often and it's not a mission critical job to do it while being connected
I didn't know that they made that! 🤯 I'm reminded of how I use a FEKER IK75 as my writing desk keyboard (for reduced-distraction writing sessions), and chose that because I wanted a wireless GMMK Pro. In fact, it even fits into the official GMMK Pro carrying case!
This is pretty cool. I really like my K3 v2. Only issue is the battery would cycle even though it was on the cable setting killing the wireless functionality after a year
I'm not sure if this is correct, but could the "double gasket" be referencing that the plate and the PCB seems to have the same material as the top/bottom plate gasket in between them?
I'd pay good money to be able to sit down with Plouffe and just have him recommend EXACTLY the keyboard I'm looking for, or what parts/kit to buy. Everything on here always sounds amazing, but I like full size layout with a volume wheel, like the old Corsair K70. The problem is that every layout I like feels and sounds like crap, and everything that sounds and feels great is always a $600 wireless 60%, ALL of which are things I don't want. Plouffe just radiates friendly energy and I feel like he could nerd out about them and I'd learn a lot (more than I learned from watching every vid with him in it, which I already did. Yes, I saw the "Ultimate Mach Keyboard Guide" already.)
Search for the Ajazz AK60. Full metal chassis, 100% with volume wheel. £35 when I bought it. If you hate the switches swap em out, the amount of money you save is worth the extra effort in customisation to your liking.
When it comes to the custom keyboard space, if you're looking for a full-size keyboard, your options are going to be really limited, and knobs being also not too common, means that it's gonna be really hard to find something. In fact I don't think there is a custom with that config. You'll likely need to compromise somewhere, either a smaller layout (and get a seperate numpad if you need) or no knob. You can always use modifier keys to adjust volume, which is still pretty convenient imo
@@armani722 I hate using keys. Right now I'm using a Keychron full size with a separate volume knob on my desk next to it. I hate it compared to my old Corsair K70 RGB, but at least the typing experience is good.
@@syed2694 Front-printed keys, static RGB, and at that price, the switches are probably hot garbage. Definitely not hot-swap at that price either. And all that for a knob, not a wheel. :/
I also got k8 pro and it's great. But the keycaps starting breaking at the same point. They snap at the bottom side of mounting hole which I think is very weak point. Can you guide me with getting keycaps for this keyboard? Thanks
The difference between a q1 and k2 are night and day tho. It may have the same switches and key caps but it’s totally worth it especially cause they run sales pretty often. A 160 dollar modded q1 legitimately is as good as a 300 dollar gmmk pro
3:50 IMO, the hot-swap is good for repairability, since you can just swap the switches easily, which is great if the switches fail for one reason or another. It's a lot less work to fix compared to knowing how to solder, and having the equipment (and the right solder) for the job.
My first mechanical keyboard was Corsair Strafe with silent switches. After 3 years one or two switches started double typing. They weren't hot swappable back then and I didn't want to mess with it too much, so I just bought a new keyboard. If they were hot swappable, I would probably have the Corsair one until today (since 2016), because I was really happy with it overall.
The part where he's talking about the bar on the back. "It's pretty stiff, so unless you just sit here and crank it, it's not gonna wear out". "I've gotta press pretty hard to get this bar to go down" There's no way he didn't know what he was saying.
I Was horrified when i opened the package for the new keyboards I ordered online and find a smartphone instead, glad they didn't suffer the same trauma as me.
what's worse is putting rob but cheaping out on translucent key cap characters to see them, backlit makes them fully dark to the point you can't see the letters
I currently use a Keychron Q1 Pro wireless and i will say, the top case coming right off the OnePlus version after unscrewing is something I wish the Q1 had. Currently on top of unhooking the cables from the PCB, i have to unscrew the USB C daughterboard in order to remove the rest of the plate and PCB assmbly from the top frmae on the Keychron or else I risk cracking the plate or the daughterboard. Hopefuly a Q1 refresh somewhere in teh future will change that to mimick the 81 Pro.
The large bottom case usually tends to reflect the ping frequencies so force break and even some butyl are needed to kill the ping entirely. I generally don't prefer this sound profile but you can probably mod it to shape the sound. The 200-300 mech key space is super competitive now
And actually cost more than their new budget phone on sale which list for $300 but you can find for $150 pretty easily. That has a headphone jack and expandable.
I think the the USB-C to USB-C cable is so you can connect it to your phone (you, know considering they keyboard was made by phone company) Then again, it has bluetooth, so you wouldn't actually need the cable...
@@startedtechFor some reason, when it comes to custom keyboards, quite a few. Keychron has actually been one of the few to support MacOS for quite some time though.
I'm not enough of a power keyboard user, so I don't want to spend $200+ on a keyboard, but if I was that looks REALLY neat. The USB-C to C would hook it up to a phone or tablet really easily too! Plus, I'm absolutely in the OnePlus cult (op11, tablet, and earbuds...) So this appeals.
LOVE my Keychron Q6 Special Edition!! If this is anywhere near as good as the Q6, it's probably awesome!! EDIT: Apparently mine is sold out now...glad I got one!!
It’s cool, I’d need to see actual custom builds of it but tbh it just seems like a special edition Q1 pro. Regardless, can’t see myself paying 200 for a Keychron
It's ridiculously expensive. Not worth money imho. I have Cidoo v87 which is over $50 cheaper. Sounds identical to this one. Could just use more switch options by default.
Could you guys try and review the new Azeron Cyro keypad? It looks to me as a more straightforward version of their original keypad but I would like your opinion on it
i just put together the Pi40 keyboard. its a 40% keyboard that comes completely disassembled and i had to solder every single connection. i had no experience choosing keys or key-caps so i defiantly made a mistake in the key-cap selection. but so far i really enjoyed putting it together and using it. its definitely on the smaller side than what i'm used to and isn't an everyday driver, but definitely an enjoyable and simple way to get into making keyboards and i hope to start designing my own keyboards in the future. i don't know if this is anything that your interested in, but i would love to see you put one together and test it out.
You normally dont lube the legs, where the bump takes place, in a normal lubing process you just lube the springs and stem rails (otherwise you overlube)
Good for the price......... what? It's 240$ and the sound for that price is kinda crap. Get a NuPhy ffs, half the price and A LOT better sound. I wouldn't want a 200+ prebuild to lube and mod myself.
Honestly, it's such a stupid OnePlus move to completely ignore the industry-wide colour coding standard of red=linear, brown=tactile, blue=clicky. Now they're just being stubborn for no reason.
