    This is sooo beautiful but agree it's a miss not going split on hot swap (I'm sure there were probably some technicalities), converted to 40% a few months ago and it's been amazing I love it

  • @xbmcme9768

    Man, I LOVE this thing. It's an extremely rare breed. 40's with hhkb layout + Bluetooth + programmability + top tier design, wow! I'm blown away. It seems the designer was trying to color match the gun metal to Apple's gunmetal grey??? Seems like it or very close to that color, which again, I haven't seen that many cases try to match Apple's metal colors. Really, really want to buy this, but I need the top row of numbers. Else, it's just an expensive piece of art sitting on a shelf somewhere.

    Hey bro love your videos! Keep it up! You think you can do sound tests with your camera mic and the one you currently use? I know some people that do sound tests like that and it usually helps me have an idea of what the board/switch would sound like irl a little closer.

    That sounds amazing! What are your thoughts on the TX AP stabs? I’ve seen them sold out a lot of places, but haven’t heard any feedback on them. Also huge kudos to you for committing to the layout for a week, I don’t think I could do it given the number of 2-3 key combinations I rely on in a normal 65% base layer.

      @@Clackbait No worries, glad to hear first impressions are positive. Based on how they’ve been stocked, seems like they’ll end up replacing Rev 3, so to some degree as long as they’re at least as good as the prior version it’s not a loss.

    Never understood 40s with traditional spacebars, but I guess it’s the same flex as a 10u… but in 40s size. It’s kinda sad that 40s and ergos are the only place you consistently see split spacebars. Glad some more are around like with the Zoom… at least I’ll never be FOMO’d or even interested in buying any of these boards since they straight up never support my needed layout. Big brain saving money

      @@Jason1087870 highly recommend Keebio boards. Only horizontal staggered board I’ve found (readily available) with a 1.25/2.25/2.75u split spacebar, and they’re decent keyboards too. Sinc (75) & Quefrency (60/65) are split, but the Convolution isn’t if you don’t want a split keyboard

    As you said, smaller boards are made to take up less space... this just goes big for no reason but looks ( I guess sound as well ) and although I love em thicc and like the design they got going on. I just could never buy something like this when you could just grab a nice 60 or 65% in what looks to be a similar size and not deal with all the layers. Amazing vid as always though.

    • @Clackbait

      Forty percents usually do not have saving space as the primary objective of the design. It is about bringing the keys to the fingers and not having to move the fingers to the keys. I would say comfort is the main benefit.

    • @noss2818
      @noss2818 Рік тому

      Yeah, 40s are more about reducing movement and being efficient with your typing. Switching to home row modifiers has made typing more comfortable for me. Layers aren’t difficult once you get used to it.
