$120 is pretty cheap if you’re into custom keyboards, they’re usually lower end keyboards. If you just want a keyboard though, I agree it is pretty expensive 😢
Explanation of the screen for those who think it's useless: The knob switches between controlling volume, and switching between wireless and wired modes (and multiple bluetooth devices). It also turns the device on and off. Because the keyboard doesn't have any other switches to indicate what device you're on or the mode, the screen gives you a clear visual of Mac/Win modes, comnected device, and battery life. I personally like the multifunction knob and utility of the screen and the lack of a bunch of extra switches on the keyboard for changing those things, but it's not for everyone! The knob/screen DO actual stuff, though. (Source: I have the M75. It had the $40 off on Amazon so it was a steal for me. This is also all info listed on its page.)
Planning on pulling the trigger but man i've read about one case where a software update bricked the whole board. How is it holding up so far? Does it need the software?
@@artchitectpng I'm a Linux user so I didn't download the software. I'm a white backlight person so I just used the hotkeys to set the backlight to a static white. You can use the board just fine without ever needing to download the software tbh.
I bought into the mechanical keyboard thing, with a Cherry keyboard with "silent" keys. I have never had so many typing mistakes, and I get the multiple key press errors. I get that some people enjoy the noise, but I wish for a quiet, reliable, full size keyboard with media keys. Here's hoping someone makes a good one one day.
I got a $4000 dollar PC designed for rendering 3D animations, I had to get it- it was part of college stuff. But damn that thing came with a mouse and keyboard- fucker is a black rectangle, all black mouse and keyboard- no built in wifi, Ethernet only, single monitor, but holy fuck that thing has served me well.
@@iSuckAtGamesGG I don't know about you, but I use the numpad when using the calculator and excel or when writing emails and shit. I also do video and photo editing so I use shortcuts assigned to the numpad.
If the screen was customizable and the indicator lights were just backlights instead of ugly indicators I'd probably buy it. Love keyboards that have a 2.4 mode, more high-end keyboards should have it.
Wireless keyboards were always a gimmick to me. I feel similar with wireless mice but I can see the benefit there. I just don't see the benefit of not having a cable compared to charging/replacing batteries.
@@laternevercame Mostly for portability sake but it's also that wires can be a difficult to set up in certain setups. The keyboard isn't always right next to the tower/laptop/etc. Personally I have my laptop on a rollout tray which can make using a cable weird since it gets in the way due to the tray floating under the desk. Some other people just like the minimalist look without cables in the way.
@@Kementiri It's a bluetooth keyboard... It tells you the battery level, if it's set to windows or mac, and you know, it gives you the device code for bluetooth connection, try to think a little.
The knob is multi function, so it can be set for volume or to make it change between windows or mac, likely works when you mess with settings so you can adjust stuff without the mouse at hand. The screen is for battery and pairing setting, since you know, it's bluetooth.
tempted to buy this on amazon, but what switches or whatever are the ones used in the video? they sound great but im clueless when it comes to keyboards lol
These regularly go on sale for like $60-$80usd. My wife got it on sale for like 70somethint with a deal on amazon. Surprisingly good keyboard for what you get. Even if the board itself is plastic
I don't understand why people spend so much on keyboard, like on prices that range from 100 to 200 bucks. The office keyboard from my dad's workplace is the only keyboard I need. Still works after over half a decade
It’s an enthusiast thing, so it doesn’t need to make sense, some people just have a hobby. However there are absolutely cases where custom made keyboards are a good idea. For example many people type for a living (programmers and such). The speed they type and the health of they’re typing hands literally dictates their living. So investing in something that makes their lives easier makes perfect sense
the office keyboard from your dads office would shatter in a matter of minutes if i played the rhythm games i play on it. playing some games naturally makes you smack the keys alot harder than others. For me, this is the biggest reason but enthusiasts also like having keyboards that sound and feel a certain way, kinda similar to how people spend alot of money on cars. When my moms Toyota wagon from 1966 does fine, why would I ever buy a more expensive car?
because they feel and sound very nice and with all the options available you can put together a keyboard that matches your workstation very nicely. aesthetics are worth spending money on.
I ended up accidentally buying this-and loving it. I didn’t really need to do lot of fine tuning (I did do a tape mod around the stab bar ends, mine were a little *too* loose for my liking). Overall it’s a solid prebuilt.
i used to own a Royal Kludge keyboard before i gave it to my friend, i absolutely love RK keyboards and the switches they use. very much recommend for others looking for a board on the less expensive side
What switches do they use. All I'm seeing is the word "brown" but they never once said a brand name. If they were true MX switches, they would say that. They're off-brand is my guess and they're being shady about it.
I believe it’s their own brand switch but don’t take my word for it. I personally loved the brown switches I had on my keyboard so if that was an issue you were worried about I think you would enjoy them. They also have Red, Blue and Low Profile Red switches to choose from
@HWEC Input I was more curious if you were able to confirm my suspicions. I actually doubt they are even their switches. They're probably a cheap Chinese switch. Most high end companies don't even make their own switches. That stacked ontop of back-lit keys but keycaps that don't shine through, I'd actually warn people not to buy this board. You can get real MX switches on a board for half the price.
@HWEC Input yeah for $50 this would be perfectly priced. But they're asking $120 for it. Which is absurd when you compare it to any other keyboard at that price point.
@@francish3135 $65 is fair. Closer to competitor prices. I just found it absurd that they think this board competes with anything from Razer/Corsair/Logitech. This board is a rebrand drop item. It should be priced accordingly.
I have always found those kinds of keyboards that are clacky like that, but are also kinda silent at the same time very cool and satisfying to listen to, but I don’t think I could have one of my own. I think the noise will eventually get super annoying, but in small clips it’s nice to listen to
Love the sounds from the switches. I'm still debating what switches to get but theres really no videos on websites that have sound for the type of switches they sell. Would really help honestly. Im only getting one of these keyboards for myself because of the custom keycaps imma buy. [Wont spend $100 on a keyboard but will on a 100% custom keycaps for $68 LOL]
Had me until it had RGB, not a fan of RGB stuff personally-but the keyboard color palette is absolutely beautiful. Kind of reminds me of Super Nintendo colors.
I have this keyboard, and in the US I believe you can get it for $40 off, unless that promotion has ended, but I got it for $80. This is a Gasket Mounted keyboard and feels really great for a prebuilt. I got the Red switches and they feel amazing. The Knob is also usable for Volume when connected via USB-C with the software. Can change between Windows & Mac mode. Also connect up to 3 devices with Bluetooth 5.1, and the Knob is used to switch between BT, 2.4 & Wired.
Honest question here. Aside from the fancy colors, and the know/screen, what really sets this keyboard apart? I can get business done on a keyboard that costs $20.
It’s a mechanical keyboard, for gaming or people who prefer a better typing experience not getting your “business” done if a keyboard doesn’t matter to you.
@@elijahmckenzie9207 you can get a mechanical keyboard for much cheaper too though. keyboards have pretty diminishing returns as the prices get higher.
@@spoongaming9507 Maybe not, I have an rk71 (an older design) which I got for around $40 which seems to be made from the same materials. $30 for some custom pbt keycaps and you'd think it was custom. You'd buy this keyboard if you think the knob and screen are cool. For anyone else, an rk71 or rk61 or even one of the DROP keyboards would be better value
lol, by the same logic why people buy seikos and rolex if a cheap watch can do the job just fine or fancy clothes or 200hp motorbikes just to drive around town?? custom mechanical keyboards are a niche market, basically this is not meant to the general public like u guys are, but for people who really like to customize every aspect of their keyboard and I mean every little aspect BUT there is already a big market of commercial keyboards out there for the general public for u guys who don't really care abt any of this 👍
Most people who buy these hot swap switch boards want to go full enthusiast and mod it. Generally the better modable boards have south facing LED. They look really nice around the edges of keys because the switch is flipped so the LED is closer to the user. Because the print on keys is generally towards the top if they are backlit, the light won't show through very well in a south facing switch, like these. To accept cherry / gateron caps you need a south facing PCB, meaning for shine through caps you're looking at side printed caps. Also you get much thicker double shot keycaps when they don't need to be translucent. This leads to the deeper "thock" sound when the cap bottoms out. That's why manufacturers of these hot swap boards started putting the LEDs south facing, and why you don't see very many shine through caps, even though a lot of the boards have RGB
Can ANYONE explain to me why mechanical keyboards are so expensive? It feels like anything below $100 is budget. With normal keyboards $100 is gonna get you a keyboard that'll type the damn message to be carved into your gravestone. The only difference I can tell is the sound. In fact most mechanical keyboards I see are smaller. Entirely ditching home, page down and up, the num pad, etc.
They are a relatively niche product with a limited customer pool, which means that they have to make money with less potential sales, and they can’t mass produce them at the quantities of cheaper more common keyboards, which also raises the price.
I got gifted this for christmas last year, and it worked amazingly for a bit! that was of course until the arrow switches broke because I was tinkering around without the proper tools I think I damaged something in the board, because when I tried using it after those two switches broke, it just didn't type smoothly. not at all critiquing the kb at this point, it's an amazing keyboard and I would happily buy it again if I had the money. I'm just ranting about how much I suck at this hobby I tried (and failed) to get into. lol
It's genuinely insane how ignorant some people are. I am not a fan of 300-400 bucks keyboards for sure. But like $150-200 for a good custom is amazing, it's practically a one time investment that's gonna serve you forever. If you're sitting at your computer for more than 2 hours you should get one definitely. But as they say, it's impossible to explain the difference to someone who doesn't want to understand.
I've been using a $30 Logitech keyboard with extra media buttons and numpad for years, and it has served me very well. Am I really the insane one when you look at 200 dollar keyboards without a numpad just because the buttons make a nice clicky sound...?
@@datb0013 he wont understand cause he doesn't want to. no point in arguing. 99% of people will never use a numpad. my guess is people who use excel or something on a daily basis
@@razpaqhvh7501 I don't use excel and use nunpad hourly. Numpads > the psychos who use the number-bar. People are so slow when they use the normal ones above, I explode and convulse each time I see it. If you'd be faster with it, then maybe I'd call that the "superior" one.
@@FainthedCherry well as a dev/coder myself, i always use the number bar. it's way closer to the actual letters and it takes much longer for me to lift my hand up and use the numpad. not to mention that i'd have to lift it up again and bring it back to the center of the keyboard.

Very nice!
bro the keyboard noise made my back jolt because i had headphones in and it was on full blast-
What’s that spinning knob for?
It spins and it's a knob
@@clokie6671 ohhh I thought you could scroll with it 🤣 but that’s cool too. Lol
setting volume
It’s programmable, so whatever you want basically
@@datb0013 okay your comment makes a lot more sense 🤣
Yeah, they definitely put all budget on the keyboard not the rest, holy this shi sounds hella good
I got gifted this for christmas last year, and it worked amazingly for a bit!
that was of course until the arrow switches broke because I was tinkering around without the proper tools
I think I damaged something in the board, because when I tried using it after those two switches broke, it just didn't type smoothly.
not at all critiquing the kb at this point, it's an amazing keyboard and I would happily buy it again if I had the money.
I'm just ranting about how much I suck at this hobby I tried (and failed) to get into. lol
geez, that sound... 🥵
As soon as the price drops to $30 I'm buying.
It's genuinely insane how ignorant some people are. I am not a fan of 300-400 bucks keyboards for sure. But like $150-200 for a good custom is amazing, it's practically a one time investment that's gonna serve you forever. If you're sitting at your computer for more than 2 hours you should get one definitely. But as they say, it's impossible to explain the difference to someone who doesn't want to understand.
I've been using a $30 Logitech keyboard with extra media buttons and numpad for years, and it has served me very well. Am I really the insane one when you look at 200 dollar keyboards without a numpad just because the buttons make a nice clicky sound...?
@@Goldy01 not the reason it’s that much lmao
@@datb0013 he wont understand cause he doesn't want to. no point in arguing. 99% of people will never use a numpad. my guess is people who use excel or something on a daily basis
@@razpaqhvh7501 I don't use excel and use nunpad hourly. Numpads > the psychos who use the number-bar. People are so slow when they use the normal ones above, I explode and convulse each time I see it. If you'd be faster with it, then maybe I'd call that the "superior" one.
@@FainthedCherry well as a dev/coder myself, i always use the number bar. it's way closer to the actual letters and it takes much longer for me to lift my hand up and use the numpad. not to mention that i'd have to lift it up again and bring it back to the center of the keyboard.
It looks better then i expected
i just got mine last week rk royal 75 i got the RK84 Wireless RGB Limited Edition Keyboard love it!
$120? I’m good
120 for a keeb is cheap man, anything below isnt reallw good quality
@@hykoticcan I ask what is the function of a keyboard?
