Keyboard with a built-in USB switch is awesome and completely undone by the price. Peripheral & monitor manufacturers need to start accounting for WFH significantly more than they do and this is a great step in the right direction with an absolutely unjustified price.
I got so excited when I saw this because I'm sick of having two keyboards cluttering up my desk for WFH, but then I saw the price lol. Guess my desk is gonna stay cluttered for a while
@jordanbeaman6911 Have a look at the Royal Kludge M75. Has a know that allows to change from 2.4G to 3 different Bluetooth devices. I use 2.4G dongle for my main PC and Bluetooth connection for my work laptop
"No other keyboard has had KVM" because I'd say the most useful peripheral to pair it with is a monitor where you can switch displays. For my own use example, I use a UGreen KVM that also has an HDMI switch for my second monitor. I use a KVM to switch between my gaming PC and my work computer. Asides from lack of display, two USBs is like nothing in terms of how many peripherals to use. Again, for me, its the keyboard, headset, microphone, and camera (I use a separate mouse for work and gaming). So yeah, I think the best use case for this current setup is what you mentioned in terms of using an external drive to transfer files between two computers you have dedicated to work together with their own monitors.
If you want to not overspend on your keyboard, but still treat yourself and get a high-end custom keyboard, I do recommend NuPhy’s Gem80. I have this board myself since they launched it so I can vouch for the user experience. The board itself is a module. So you can buy the barebones (I think the wireless version was 160$) and put whatever switches and caps you want. I went with their most expensive stock build for 209$. With this price tag you get the wireless variant of the keyboard; custom keycaps (they have mSA profile double shot PBT thicc caps which feel amazing to type on); the silent switches (which for 25$ they are an amazing price). In the box you get by default 4 gasket mounting options; coiled cable (for those who enjoy custom cables); a keycap&switch puller *and a actual proper screwdriver so you don’t even have to use other tools to mod it* . Everything is in the box. I’ve used this keyboard for a few months now and I can say I’m delighted with my purchase.
just quick reminder, if you use it with hard drive, when you switch devices, hard drive is also disconnected and it is no recording anymore. what about transfer speed? you didn't even mentioned it, it's probably usb 2.0
i never comment , but this keyboard looks nice but is not practical. 1. who wants so many extra cables on the back of your keyboard? sure as hell not me! 2. a usb switcher or kvm using a button or macro is still better in my opinion. 3. the keyboard is nice but a wired keyboard in 2024 for 299.99 is ridiculous. A better concept would have been a wireless connection to an external switcher or KVM that you can place under your desk and use the buttons on the keyboard to swap between computers. That would be innovation.
I bought a nice 4 port USB hub with an extra button to switch between PCs for like 40 bucks. And I have not additional clutter on the desk. Don't know about this "solution".
Frank, what's the going rate for a kvm switch that's NOT an HDMI type? That may justify the price, otherwise, I'd say it's a $125-150 price point type of KB.
Hard Pass - $300 for a KVM switch in a KB when I have a $25 KVM that does all of the same things with a 6 port USB hub plugged into it provides no value for the investment. I have 2 laptops with 2 monitors, a KB, Mouse, Mic, Camera, and USB to my Klipsch speakers. 1 button switches between Laptop A and Laptop B and all of the peripherals.
I weirdly don't liike the logo branding at the top left of the keyboard. It looks too distracting and takes away from it trying to look clean and simple.
If this was an actual KVM, I could see the market for this. But I'm immediately dissuaded from buying it at $300. I'd rather just get a much better board for half the price and just get a USB switch.
@randomfrankp common sense isn't so common... I could see someone wanting to switch the mouse and keyboard for a small simple task without thinking about the connected drive
@@randomfrankpit’s funny you raise common sense but you haven’t done the bare minimum of research to understand the market for such a feature. This product is extremely overpriced for adding a small functionality that you can solve with through other gadgets (usb switchers). Also calling it a KVM switch as those are more expensive, to take into account various bandwidth requirements for monitors/games, is either misleading or malpractice from a reviewer of your credibility. Again, not sure if this keyboard is worth the price or the hype that you keep portraying.
Let me cook: instead of eliminating the 5head, eliminate the RGB rail, and set a raised bar there for a functional pen rail. Even with that you could still have RGB set to diffuse through the rail and fire back at the rest of the board, which might look better and show basically no hot spots to the user while in-use. Also, don't like that that hollow bottom case. I'd rather have seen those blanks filled in with an acrylic layer so at least you have a fully enclosed case but could still see into the interior.
Any chance you will be reviewing the Corsair K70 max? I own the keyboard and like it, but my frame of reference is my former corsair keyboard. Would love to hear the opinion of a person who actually had their hands on a fair amount of keyboards. Anyways love the videos.
Logitech has done usb switch a long time ago, with the mx series between 3 profiles + software support to freely move between each pc without needing to press the keys. It also works on both mac and windows so I dont see the big advantage of the pulsar. It's just a mechanical keyboard with a usb switch wich is way too expensive in the current market.
I'm not a keyboard enthusiast but since I purchased the K8 pro with south facing key light, I've regretted. I don't see the characters at night, despite having backlight! Shine through keycaps that have characters printed on the lower side of the keycap face are incredibly difficult to find.
I can see a need for this, because I have multiple computers dedicated to different tasks, and there IS a need for an easy switching solution. There are lots of different solutions out there, but I've never seen an keyboard with a built in KVM switch before. This IS innovative, and it's well worth it for people with this exact needs. Personally, I think the $300 price point is a bit high, and maybe $200 is something that will give this keyboard more mass appeal. Then again ... this keyboard already sound like a $200 keyboard from maybe 1 - 2 years ago (my gawd, the pace of innovation in the keyboard space), so they're probably thinking that the additional KVM and convenience features are worth the additional $100. Well, that's 2 years ago, and now even $100 keyboards can sound really good.
Sorry but I have Logitech mx keys and it basically does the same thing so idk what’s “new”? You plug in the wireless ports and then it lets you change which wireless port to connect to i.e lets you connect to a max of 3 pcs if you wanted to, the Logitech mouse does the same thing. So please correct me if I’m wrong or misunderstand the difference but this isn’t a new feature.
@randomfrankp no, but I'd have both pcs connected to my interface at the same time, so there's the headphones being connected to both pcs and connect a hard drive Dock to both pcs which solves that. If someone can afford two pcs then they can afford an interface and a drive dock, meaning this is a cool concept, but I don't see the need for this keyboard personally. The only reason it'd be useful is If it was a cheap alternative, which it isn't, but I'd love to hear more of your thoughts on it as I might still be missing something.
This is nice. I have 1 monitor for for my PS5 and PC. I can easily switch between keyboard mouse and controller for games and use the same USB headset/speakers
I bet it would be useful for keyboard and mouse compatible games on console. That way you can play your console games and then just switch to your PC on the same monitor and setup
Switching form gaming to work PCs would be so nice with this, but EVERY streamer needs it. I HATE seeing setups with 2 keyboards and 2 mice. Good going Pulsar!
Kvms are awesome, in a keyboard it’s dumb. I use a kvm to switch between my work and personal machines, but I wouldn’t want it in the middle of my desk. - people who are into higher end keyboards also tend to switch them out occasionally. Now you have to also have a backup kvm if you want to switch. - some people like having a kvm for less clutter, such as having a wireless keyboard and mouse hooked up to two systems. But now I need at minimum two wires coming out of my keyboard. That’s more annoying, especially if your two devices aren’t located in a way that’s easy to route those two cables together
long time ago i usually critic your vdeo, i bet its for improvement, i bet u are near perfect as a content creator nowdays hahaha btw hope u keep continue doing what u do. Quality audio is insane, content also insane, and also your crispy looks, awesome, i dont watch frequently your video, but its insane now hahaha
I just don't see how it competes with a USB switch lol? For $20 I get to have whatever keyboard I want and keep the switch out of sight. With this, that's a lot wires coming out the back of that keyboard! The idea is awesome but I think it needs a few refinements to make it practical
Love the design, love the fact it works with signal RGB, I use signal so I stupidly I base my peripherals around the software, I don't need the KVM but if they kept the design with the rapid trigger I buying that asap, loving the RGB bar at the top also and the sound of the keyboard, pulse came out of nowhere and killed it
That x feature is nice. I could make use of that. But I prefer full size keyboards. So I'll probably look for something like that. As my 15 year old corsair keyboard finally gave up a couple days ago. I run a KVM as I work from home and switch to my work pc. But I have enough monitors to dedicate one to the work pc and just switch the usb, keyboard and mouse.
You keep using that word.. I don't think it means what you think it means. Hopefully they didn't say KVM anywhere in their marketing cause that would be straight up false.
It sounds super good but honestly at that price point I’d build another custom mechanical or he board for that 😂 solid review as always streaming aspect would be very nice on board for 2 pc so I see some market for it
thats not a kvm, its a usb switch. but honestly just look at any bluetooth keeb that you've seen lately; the custom market is getting real good at making cheaper custom solutions
At first I was like "keyboard that can switch via Bluetooth exist" but then once it got to peripherals connected to the keyboard also switching that's where I'm like "noww I get it"
Idk why people are so mad about the price like no you’re not getting a good dampened gasket mounted kb for $80 especially with the other add ons this kb has as well as decent software not every kb needs to be HE
Pretty positive review for such an expensive, low-tech board (not real KVM, no HE support). Definitely nothing to do with the Pulsar mouse you made with them right?
I do like it, but it's a bit overpriced. Also not yet available in the EU (Netherlands over here). Other color options would be nice, shinethrough keycaps (for the letters/numbers i mean, not the whole key), at least 100/150 dollars cheaper, and then we are talking 🙂 The keyboard does sound good btw.
This keyboard sounds good but not a great value. It is so similar to my RK84 keyboard with the usb hub and device switching, but at 5x the price. The usb hub of my keyboard does not switch with device as only one wired device (2 additional wireless), but that is not my use case anyways. After changing the switches and key caps, my RK84 build was still much cheaper than this. No mention if this has macro support, which the RK84 does. My keyboard has been a great value as it works with PC, Mac, Linux, and mobile, so I use it at home and at work. Additionally, the RK84 is wired and wireless.
Regardless of whether this should be called AVM or not. The tech is interesting, but I don´t know if it´s worth $300 bucks. I have three wireless keyboards that can pair via bluetooth with three different devices. Plus both of my laptops have bluetooth, so I can already switch between computers on my keyboard with the press of a key. Plus I didn´t like the fact that you can´t remove the bottom case foam (well you can, but it´s gonna be messy) for those of us that want a ¨clackier¨ sound profile. I would pay $150 bucks for this board, but not $300!
Pulsar thinks they are releasing a custom built world class keyboard at that price - meanwhile it’s nothing more than what Razer could offer with better performance?
hard to get into Pulsar, have had several keyboards and mice from them that are no longer getting support in software and talking to there support staff are now labeled as EOL. longevity is lacking compared to other brands

Regardless of whether this should be called AVM or not. The tech is interesting, but I don´t know if it´s worth $300 bucks. I have three wireless keyboards that can pair via bluetooth with three different devices. Plus both of my laptops have bluetooth, so I can already switch between computers on my keyboard with the press of a key.
Plus I didn´t like the fact that you can´t remove the bottom case foam (well you can, but it´s gonna be messy) for those of us that want a ¨clackier¨ sound profile. I would pay $150 bucks for this board, but not $300!
Pulsar thinks they are releasing a custom built world class keyboard at that price - meanwhile it’s nothing more than what Razer could offer with better performance?
299.00, no way. I built a custom board for less than 150$
$300 for this is disgusting. There is NO reason for this to be as expensive as it is.
hard to get into Pulsar, have had several keyboards and mice from them that are no longer getting support in software and talking to there support staff are now labeled as EOL. longevity is lacking compared to other brands
Pulsar is following the footsteps of Logitech, just forget about what the hype currently is about and making nonsense stuff.
damn with how good budget keybs nowadays, i dont think 300 is worth it
If it doesn't have 1000hz(at least, cause I played Osu, Fnf which it benfit me) or 8000hz than it would be overprice
Logitech's latest keyboard is good now or something, IDK.
I’d rather just use 2.4ghz on my gaming and Bluetooth on my work setup. Wireless and still changes at just the push of a button.

You should review the Basilisk v3 pro mouse
Idk why but it drives me crazy seeing Frank type without using his pinky's.. I mean hes obviously not a slow typer lol.
i feel like this would have gone STUPID crazy during peak fortnite
More like peak COVID with work from home setups
Last time I was here Pulsar made affordable PC products
I hate using a regular keyboard to play games, the mouse I like😢 maybe do a video on one or two of those one-handed keyboards with a thumb stick🎉❤ I bought an old Logitech, but the software I couldn't download😢
