    if that board had an f row it would be perfect

  • @jorgemendez4517

    No F row equals terrible keyboard

  • @AquaPeet

    PGDN but no PGUP is like HOME but no END or left arrow but no right arrow... It's weird, don't do it, keyboard creators!

  • @ZXC-jn3mw

    I'm always surprised by folks who may complain about keyboard cases being made out of plastic under one video, but at the same time literally spending over $400 for plastic keyboards such as Moonlander, Glove80, and Kinesis 360 😂

  • @CFDBlakestr

    Can someone explain to me why more companies don't use VIA compatibility? NO ONE is buying these boards for their proprietary software - and VIA/QMK are open source right? So there's no royalties to pay? What am I missing here? It has to be costing them money to develop their own software. Not to mention they are missing out on many sales I'm sure.

    Imagine my surprise when I took apart my $30 keyboard and found it actually had foam in it! It was pretty thin and didn't seem to be doing much so I put in another layer and the difference in the sound is night and day! Thanks to videos from you, Switch and Click, Squashy, and others, I got the confidence to do this very simple mod and it's such a big difference, so thank you! (now I need to lube the stabs and do something about the spacebar..)

    Im gonna comment, but ill do it later in this video

  • @minhquanvu2944

    Blud can't tell what's a FKL-WKL

  • @user-dz4fl9vc9t

    Can you mod the screen

  • @CJFX_

    So you're telling me that's not aluminum?? wow they really have mastered the aluminum looking plastic 😅

    I love the little screen on my Meletrix Zoom75. This may sound silly, but it has a little notepad where I can keep reminders about hotkeys to applications I use and the like, which is huge for my old and senile brain. I also like being able to display my CPU temp when I'm gaming to ensure that I don't have problems with my cooling setup.

    My day always gets better when Hipyo Tech posts :)

  • @SoupofPossibilities

    good job hipyo, very nice video!

  • @maxmouse3

    Nice video! And it seems like a good enough board.

    I am using this keyboard rn. Modded it a little bit. But all I can say is that the switches will determine this keyboards potential since you can't play around it too much since it already has like 70% of the keyboard mods should have and I love it honestly. I can put my Gifs but the software is rly not that good tbh. I hope they'll improve it :)

  • @annasoH323

    Today's budget boards run circles around my sorry attempts to build keyboards and for much $$$ less. That said, I have figured out how to make my keyboards work for me (maybe a little bit of sunk cost fallacy). Well, always nice to see things continuing to move forward.

  • @Switcheroo_Mechanical_Keyboard

    Hi hipyo! your content is great!

  • @CaptainFabulous84

    I really like the styling on this one. The color scheme and caps are really nice. Tho I need a full-size board.

  • @DarkSansTV

    Usually what I look for in a keyboard is just aesthetics but also durability. You can't imagine the pain of grabbing a fresh new keyboard, only for the keys to start dying after the first month. I can't trust Hyper X for this reason because my friend got me this keyboard and the D key on it is dying, having used A and D for my rhythm game of choice, osu. Now I need a whole new keyboard because Hyper X decided it was a good idea to cut the cost of making the switches actually durable instead of having a decent switch that I can come back to when it finally gives out about 5 years later when I accidentally yank the cable too hard.

  • @rudivandoornegat2371

    Essential for every keyboard for me would be a few programmable layers, the option of a 3-split space-bar and sound versions to choose from or the manufacturer should at least inform buyers about the sound profile (thocky, clicky, clacky, or creamy).
