Wow I love how informative this was, I never thought deep about keyboards before but they’re a lot more fun that I imagined and you taught me a lot !
Omg I bought the blue Moffi keyboard and now I’m eyeing the green one… do I need more? No, are you tempting me to buy more? YES🤡
You know i’m always here to be the bad influence🙃🙃
I was not expecting to get an education on the actual functioning of mechanical keyboards but I am into it! I have an aJazz keyboard I found because it was pink and was small enough to fit on my desk for school/work. The escape key doesn't work for some reason, so I may try out one of the keyboards you have jaja
Ok I just have to say THANK YOU !! Keyboards have been a recent obsession and I had a lot of trouble understanding exactly how the different switches work and what was the difference between them all ! You made that so clear and simple, I ready to buy one now ahah
I just discover your channel and I love it 😍
The best advice I have is to familiarize yourself with all of your options. When I was picking my switches for the yunzii I got, I listened to all 5 options, including the Akko blue switch, which I was fairly certain I didn't want. It's good to listen a couple times over and if possible, listen to recordings from different sources, because SO MANY factors can change the way a keyboard sounds in a video. First and foremost, the switches can sound different in different boards, but the angle of the board (flat or lifted on the little legs), the surface on which it sits, the room it's in, the microphone placement, etc, can all change how the switches or keyboard sounds in the video. Honestly, the akko orange switches I got still don't sound EXACTLY like any of the videos I watched on them, but I was able to discern that it would be a deeper and softer click than the rest and that's what I was looking for, and I am in no way disappointed because I did the research beforehand.
solid tips from ed!! listen up y’all!
I’ve been eyeing the Mofii wired keyboard for a while now and your video convinced me to finally buy it. It just looks so pretty, doesn’t it? 🥺🥺 This is gonna be my first keyboard so I’m very excited! Thank you for this insightful video ❤️
I love your keyboard choices. They're so cute. Thanks for breaking it down, I didn't know anything about the actual switch functions lol! ♡
Loved this video!! I work from home as a developer and I honestly don't even know how I wrote good code before getting a mechanical keyboard lol. I love the feel and sound and I find it easier to type quickly. Plus they are super cute
I’ve been searching for a cute keyboard and I saw that you just uploaded this 🥺 thank you!!
I've been getting into mechanical keyboards lately!! This video was so great and fun to watch 😍
Thank you for this informational video! Loved this ❤💖♥ and my Moffii Luscious is otw! So I can't wait to experiment with it! Love you! 💘
This was SO helpful !! I felt like you were my friend just sharing with me what you’ve learned and what I’ve always wanted to know but didn’t know how to ask!
awww that makes me so happy🥺
thank you for teaching ys about this! I never knew this and I learned a lot from this! i can’t wait to see more of these kind of videos (lifestyle vlogs), and I would love to see an earth tone house tour!!
thank youu!! and working on the house tour soon!!
Ahhh I’m trying to make a kind of forest-themed setup and I’ve been looking into getting exactly these keyboards in particular, so cool to see a video on both!! Rn I have the Womier K87 botanical keyboard but would love to get the brown Mofii candy and Akko matcha red bean as well 😍 very nice video!!
I’ve been thinking about getting a mechanical keyboard, and boom this video came out at the perfect time 💛
This is an awesome resource! Thank you!
This video is so helpful 💖
it was amazing listening to you, never thought that mechanical keyboards or keyboards in general, were so interesting to me!
also clicking noises makes me so happy, thank you for that & your video of course! x
they really are so interesting!! glad you liked!!🤎
@@CozyK yes i do! also those keyboards with the clicky noises are so relaxing & amazing. i´m also going to buy one for me, in the future! ;3
ooooooh I've been so curious about these!!! SO excited to get your info lolol
I didn’t know this was a thing, and now that I know it’s a thing I’m wondering if I regret not knowing earlier, or that I found out about it at all >.>
Very cute and educational video!! Thank you for your hard work, and yeeeess the matcha board is lovely 🥺
hahaha that’s exactly how i felt when i learned about them!
opened my first mechanical keyb (it's retro style!) thanks for this video! so informative, and i just sent it to a friend
New vid hype ! Love the look ! Cat eye on point and the hair looks great ! Also, never knew what a mechanical keyboard was, but I kinda want to find one that I is quiet and linear for gaming 😅- as always , thank you for posting ! Love your vids
thank youu!! and yesss join in on the obsession!
Omg the Moffi keyboard is gorgeous!! And you’re also soo gorgeous!!!🤩
thank youuu😭
You come across so friendly while explaining this wonderfully 😊
thank you!!
Oof I love them 🥺 Your videos are always so relaxing
thank youuu🥺
I’m a new subscriber and I just wanted to say I’ve really been enjoying all your videos! I’ve been wanting a mechanical keyboard for awhile, but I game on a laptop and I’m not sure if I have the space to setup my laptop with a separate keyboard too. But they’re so pretty and customizable I might have to figure out a way to make it work!
thank youu!! i use mine for my laptop sometimes too and it’s def a little cramped but worth ittt!
you look so so pretty in this video omg🥺 your hair, makeup, outfit!! so cute
thank youu!!😭
omg u sold me on the pink switches!!! this was such a well edited video
yay!! and thank youu
The algorithm introduced me to this style of keyboard and i went on the hunt. Found this exact one on Walmart but didn't buy it cause I did think it was real cause it didn't look like the others in other videos. Autoplay led me to your channel and once I saw you use it I ran back to my cart and hit checkout. There was only 2 left when I bought it so I'm Praying it comes. In the mail.
Oh man I wish I knew there were more options when I got my keyboard 🙈 when I graduate and get a job I'm totally going to invest in a pretty one 😍😍😍
I find my preferences change all the time. I used to love reds, got a keyboard with blue switches earlier this year and I loved it, but now THANKS TO YOU (!!), I got the yunzii matcha red bean with akko orange switches and I LOVE the way it sounds and feels more than any keyboard I've ever owned. Even with gaming, I don't love how sensitive the blues can be at times. I play League of Legends, and the blues occasionally have made me misfire. Also, I love the deeper, soft clicking sound of the akko orange switches.
But I swear, between you and the tiktok account I follow dedicated to testing out different boards and switches, I'm gonna go broke and have nowhere to keep all the boards that bankrupt me. After hearing your gateron pinks, I might be getting another keyboard. I've been eyeballing that yunzii board with the blue gradient. I know this one goes really well with my desk setup, but I have blue accents all over my room... Plus this yunzii board is the nicest keyboard I've ever owned.
Also, I had one of those circle keyboards, and while they are adorable, I hated typing with it and never really felt like I got used to it. Some of the key placement was just too unintuitive to where I've been comfortable typing for my entire life, basically.
Omg i know exactly which blue one you’re talking about and I fulllyyy support (me being a bad influence again srry ed lol)! And agreed, I definitely find myself using the akko wayyy more!
@@CozyK I’ve just chosen to accept and embrace that you will forever be a bad influence on my wallet but a great influence on having cool stuff in my home/aesthetic
This was fascinating. Oh i wonder if someday youll do an update. Im fascinated now! I have to go see keyboards
The video I didn’t know I needed 🤎 I think I could just listen to you talk all day 🤍
🥺🤎
I've been using mechanical keyboards for years but never customised one. I am using speed silver switches currently and didn't even know it was a linear switch, I just like using it :D I had browns in my previous keyboard and I don't know if I noticed the tactile feeling (even though I knew it was a tactile switch), maybe I need to compare them now after this video!
I also didn't know about the Cherry profile and it's one of the things I didn't like about the keyboard, I didn't realise it was a cherry thing!
Now I just need to find a board I like that is full size! It's been a struggle so far.
Been a fan awhile, but I finally had to comment! You (+ Kat) are reading my mind! Y’all with cozy, casual gaming, your Notion tips, and now MKs! It’s been a few months now - I’m two keyboards deep (one starter SK64s + one legit gb extra Milkshake :3). Got the husband soldering macropads for me. :))) If there’s any major advice I’d share, research, research, research. Triple check keycap measurements (1U, 1.25U, 2.25U, and so on) against the keyboard. I’ve read enough horror stories about having the wrong shift key. Anyway, I love your work & your energy. 🌼🌼 Can’t wait for what you come up with next! 💌
Awww thanks for commenting!! Also, such a helpful tip, thank you sm!!!🤎🤎
also i want a macropad so much!! go husband!
@@CozyK This is actually the hardest part about this hobby to find: macropads (cute + prebuilt) and not typical numpads. It comes with a higher code learning curve for customization. They're virtually only available in kits or in limited QTYs. Exercising a lot of patience (I barely have) in this hobby. 🥲😄
This was SO HELPFUL THANK YOU!!! I’ve been researching for hours and no where can I find a universal “this is what all these terms mean” and I’m like. Can I buy any color caps and put them on any board and it seems like the answer here is yes? If it doesn’t matter the switch type. God bless you. I knew if I found a vid on your channel you’d lay it out. Ugh. I love you 😭😭😭
Ahhhh i’m so glad! And yes any caps go with any keyboard buttttt there are some keycap sets that may not work with smaller or larger board layouts, so just double check with the keycap listing (usually the right set of ctrl, fn, alt keys and right shift keys will be affected size wise)
hi! i really like the Mofii keyboard that you have and I wanna ask if it is soft to touch? im planning on getting one :< thank you for this wonderful vid btw you're so pretty!
how did you read my mind with this video tho, I bought a pink mechanical keyboard a couple months ago and now i'm halfway through shopping for my next one 😅 I only really use my mechanical keyboard when i'm feeling ~fancy~ or something lmao, I can't type on it fast enough to use it for work. thank you, this was very informative! 💜
omg yess i literally switch them up depending on my mood😂
I dream of having room for a white keyboard backlit with rainbow lights! For now, I'm really happy with the way my laptop sounds
omg an earth tone gamer setup would be sooo cute
So basically these keyboards are customizable, pretty, asmr keyboards... I'm sold
exaactly! what more could you want!
Not me immediately running to Etsy to look up artisan keycaps to customize my keyboard😅😅 I'm also trying to go for a earth-toned setup!! Thank you for making this video!!
there’s sooo many good ones! good luck!!
Awesome video! And you look beautiful as always!!!! Love your hair 😍
thank youu!!🤎
I'm very glad I found you on TikTok because we have a very similar preference for colors.
I've really been eyeing a mechanical keyboard as well, mostly because they look so cute tho. Just don't know if they would work as well for working as well, just see em for gaming mostly and I've so gotten used to the apple keyboard ... 😬
If it helps, i’ve been using mine to study for finals on my Mac and it makes it so much more enjoyable!
I'm really interested in that mofii mechanical keyboards actually, especially for the aesthetic. The only thing that held me back is that its not a wireless keyboard. I just don't want too much wire on my desktop set up. If only they have a wireless one... :')
Well they have the wireless one
oh man the things tiktok has made me buy hahaha thank you for this video it was very helpful and easy to understand with those visuals :)
yayy i’m so glad! and same loll
so yum
Have I ever even shown an interest in getting a mechanical keyboard? Nope. Did I still watch this whole video? Yes.
Althoughhhh I do love mechanical keyboard ASMR videos and this video is a very bad influence for putting the idea in my head that I now need my own!
Hahahha that’s my plan all along patty😈
I’m so in love with the one with the circular keys...that clicky sound...I think my wallet is in trouble ;-;
Nope nope nope! I will not allow myself to indulge in another money sucking hobby🤣 I will however support you doing so and watch every mechanical keyboard video you make! 💕 and I’m with you on the Neutral toned setups! It’s hard to find things that match my home aesthetic 😩
Omg your brows thooough 😍 tutorial video on how you do your brows!!!
Omg I learned a lot with your video! Thanks!!!
awww thank you! i mostly just use a gel and fill in with some pencil!
I always saw these TikToks and had no idea what anything they said meant, I would just vibe to the typing sounds 😂
That was meee😂😂
What PC do you have
Got it from CyberPower PC! I’ll probs go over the specs in a vlog!
not me using this video as an asmr background noise
I would love to have a mechanical keyboard but my native language is spanish i really want to have the ñ on my keyboard but i haven't found one :(
they are keyboards with the space for the ñ, iso keyboards and keycaps tend to have it
Although they are a bit more expensive and hard to find 😓
@@mhope4607 thank you!!!! that helps, i will look into it :)
hey cozy, may i ask what you used for your lashes? they look so pretty 💘
thank you!! these are just regular old strip lashes that i cut in half and put on the outer corners of my eye!
can they be used with ipads
If they have bluetooth capabilities, some may! You’ll have to check for each keyboard
@@CozyK thanks😘
I'm just here for the beautiful hair and glowy skin haha I don't know why but I don't like mechanical keyboards, I think it might be the sound!
thank youu🥺 and validdd, they are loud as hell lol
Eewww unlubed switch so scratchy
just getting into lubbin now! v excited to get rid of the scratch lol
Nice from an enthusiast you have a good start good luck lubing!
thank u!
