- Just a general sound test difference for different profiles keycaps that I have on hand. Different manufactures will also have difference in their keycaps even though they are classified on the same profile and abs or pbt also make a difference on the sound too. So take this as a grain of salt It's all up to you to decide which profile and design you like.
Keyboard: RK61 rgb, foam modded
Switches:Outemu Purple tactile lubed
Keycaps used in video:
OEM: RK61 original white Oem profile keycaps(abs)
Cherry: Totoro keycaps Cherry profile (pbt)
XDA: Dawn/Ember(微光) keycaps XDA profile (pbt)

Yea i know right.
Thanks for the upload! Been looking for that exact XDA set hahah
for me personally xda an ma are the best sounding profiles
Great and simple video, but that help a lots! Great job Dan Cheok!
its just me or oem sound so good😂😂
Well its preference. Everyone have different taste on sound and feel. Btw this sound comparison is not a serious test since i was using different material keycaps and different manufacture ones so its not a fixed test. So do take it as a reference for just the keycaps display in the video ya
\
I really want to like OEM because they are the cheapest, XDA is cheap too but those are wayyyy too clacks for me. Want the nice SA thock for the price of OEMs
Xda seems like best
we need more XDA color ways and designs they sound to good!
Honey and milk is actually cool
I really like oem profile sound
so it was the same keyboard for all the tests?? only change was the keycaps ?
i think sa or oem sounds good
hey i just bought the same XDA set
no one does sound comparisons with asa keycaps 😭
nice this is really usefulll...thank you for making the video
Wow, I never heard an RK61 sound this good. Usually its just flimsy and rattley sounding.
well in this video the switch is desolder and change to lubed outemu purples, took too much effort for that, rather just get a better hotswappable board
@@dancheok3635 isn’t the rk61 hotswappable?
@@fizzingwhizzbee desoldered them, but trust me, just get a hotswappable board unless u wanna go through the trauma of desoldering switches lol
@@fizzingwhizzbee the new ones are, he got the non hotswappable ones like I did.
How are you using cherry profile on the RK? I thought there was inteference
How would you describe the tactility profile of the purples? Interested in joining tactile gang
Smaller bump, thats all i could say about them
@@dancheok3635 any pretravel?
@@saamo1423 They are listed 2mm with the switch specs but I do say take them as a grain of salt. Cheap budget switches generally have loose tolerance between switches so each switch might differ from other.
hey bro is that gleam ember gray keycap?
Are you Malaysian? How much you buy the xda keycap ?
Yes, through taobao preorder under 80rmb excluded shipping
do you face any problem using outemu switches with XDA profile keycaps? Intend to get XDA keycaps for my low profile keyboard and i scared it wont fit.
Idk about low profile keyboards compatibility with xda keycaps. If ur switches are using the same design as the normal switches like outemu low profile then it will fit. If they are kailh choc low profile then it cant really fit any normal keycaps including xda
@@dancheok3635 I’m using outemu Low profile switch as well, I only afraid it will hit the keyboard using xda keycaps . But it looks like it is working on your keyboard :)
@@chasingdrama2955 the rk61 is standard height mx style keyswitches so there wont be any interference between xda and them. However low profile outemu switches are lower in height, u could try getting a normal cherry or oem height keycaps and see whether theres any interference or not. If there are none, then xda profiles with lower height than oem and cherry will definitely fit well.
Do u have any interference issue when using cherry keycaps? If yes, what r ur thoughts?
I didnt notice any interference between the south facing outemu purple switches and the totoro cherry profile keycaps though. But just be reminded not all cherry profiles are the same, there are just a standard and each manufacturers have their own design with little difference between others for their cherry profiles keycaps. But for cheap prebuilt keyboards and cheap clones for cherry profiles keycaps you pretty much dont need worry about the interference
@@dancheok3635 Thanks for the fast reply!
what mouse do you have?
Do you find that it is harder to type with the flat style keycaps such as XDA? They sound really nice but I'm scared that I wouldn't get used to it.
I do find them easier to type because of my typing styles which "glide through" the keycaps unlike touch typing. Ur millage may vary.
But on the other hand, xda makes my switches sound worse than oem and cherry profiles. They sound ok when u use it. But because I do have 1.5mm thick pbt cherry profiles keycaps to compare, I do find the sound of xda is worse. Especially on the stabs. Maybe the sound "bleed" through the sides of the keycaps because of their lower height. So I do skipped xda profiles for my main board.
Anyway its ur preference. I will say u will get used to them later on after some use. So maybe can try pull the trigger on them, and if really cant get used to them, maybe just sell them to others who are interested for some money back.
@@dancheok3635 In my opinion they all sound good but in different ways. I think that the OEM and cherry sound more "hollow", but I'm intrigued by the XDA as I have never tried them myself. I might give them a shot, thanks for your reply :)
@@StolenSweetroll64 for me if you used to type on low profile board , laptop then it's just smoother than that , and xda design is like the best for it look, all the keys are close to each other make it's have a clean vibe i love it
@@nhutminh9290 I also really like how it looks, I ordered a set of XDA keycaps and I'm excited to see what it's going to be like
@@StolenSweetroll64 what do you think of their sound ?
took 2 days for u making this video aye? (cus you change clothes)
Nah i just record new oem, xda test on another day and insert the cherry profiles video recorded before inside the clip, thats why the cloths are different
What mods were done on the keyboard?
Outemu or Gateron switch, what should I choose?
Definitely gateron
Keycaps buying links please
Does cherry have interference in outemu switches?
Depends on what manufactures mold. Cant be 100% sure
Where did you get the XDA keycaps and how much are they?
taobao, the price depend on ur area tax all that so they are no exact pricing for them
For me I got them on banggood but you can litterally find them on Amazon
I got mine from aliexpress for about $25 with shipping. They're pretty nice.
Found on Shopee Malaysia for around RM75 (local). Worth it?
If u are referring to the ember xda keycaps then the price of rm75 shipped is good enough in local. If u do like the design and xda layout I would say give it a shot
@@dancheok3635 do you have the taobao link?
@@husainyard The could be easily found by just searching them urself on taobao, I am not providing any store links to prevent getting into trouble
do you have a link for the cherry keycaps?
totoro keycaps. just search them urself
is there a interferance on the cherry keycaps??
oof nvm u already answered it mb
I like the shape of XDA but sound so bad (like a cheap plastic toy)
same here. Like their flat profiles which are good for us who are not using touch typing. But do have other close to like xda profiles for clones, qx1, zda all that which are higher and still a flat profiles like the honey milk keycaps. All those will sound a little better than normal thin flat xda that we experience. So might give it a shot.
@@dancheok3635 I'll be glad to see the video, thank you!
@@urielalbertosanchezm Could refer to my newer video aws68 with xda keycaps and also wine reds for reference on higher xda keycaps clones.
You mean abs keycaps by saying oem?
Oem keycaps are an profiles. Its just that the Oem profiles keycaps I'm using are abs material and the other two XDA and Cherry profiles are PBT so i stated in there just a reference
@@dancheok3635 Oh, okay. Thanks for the explanation.
outemu purple or brown are better?
Purple，but both are still the same old outemu switches with a lot of spring ping, do upgrade if u can
@@dancheok3635 any recommended switches to upgrade other than otm purple？
what mouse is that
HXSJ T90 from shopee. Just generic glorious clone with 2.4g/bluetooth function with a 3months and more battery life
Are there any interference with cherry profile keycaps?
I didnt notice any interference between the south facing outemu purple switches and the totoro cherry profile keycaps though. But just be reminded not all cherry profiles are the same, there are just a standard and each manufacturers have their own design with little difference between others for their cherry profiles keycaps.
