Hibiki by Hibi | Build + sound tests

More Hibi board builds! This time it's the Hibiki!
I was disappointed I could not get this board during GB but I managed to snag an extra! And I'm glad I did cause have you listened to the sound test?!🤯
I have been using this board daily and it really tells how much I am in love with the Hibiki. This video really did not do this board justice because the attention to detail is amazing. From the adorable Hibi screwdriver to the customized Hibi rubber feet, you can see how much sweat, tears and love went into designing the board.
After building the Junes and Hibiki, I am convinced that every board by Hibi will be amazing and so this will not be the last Hibi board you will see on my channel😂
If you're interested with the Hibiki, (at the time of uploading this video) there are still extras left for all colour ways on their website so get it before they're sold out!

Amazing video!

[@mrskwrl]

Is it me or was there no different with or without plate foam?

[@key_rist]

Yeah there’s not much difference for me too. But included the sound tests in case people are wondering. But the typing feels a bit softer and flex when there is no foam

[@adriancpm]

Sounds clacky! Nice build

[@key_rist]

WTF😭

[@yournewworldleader3584]

yeahhhhh... $475.00 for a board that sounds generic and looks generic if you're not looking under it is a bit much

[@key_rist]

You do you! Everyone has their own preference when it comes to keyboards. But appreciate your take on it

[@tree_fingers]

It was much cheaper in GB. I also think it’s very unique.
