tfw you're still waiting for an FBTKL and QK and Meletrix are waging war

@nmadden02 Год назад

Thank you for the honest review! I've been going back and forth on this and I never noticed the 6.25U spacebar only config. Also feel better about skipping this since I went all out on Tiger 80 and Tiger 80 lite earlier this year :) Awesome work per usual - thanks Andy!

@tamegaming1768 Год назад

Tiger80 gang! The first few builds in mine I wasn't a fan, but after taping the flex cuts with some duct tape, force break and running some mx blacks + case and plate foam this has been my endgame. I'd honestly buy another

@MlkXiu Год назад

Zoom TKL or tiger 80 lite? Just curious, I already own the tiger 80 lite

@Ray.F Год назад

I clicked in so fast because I knew it was about the zoom just based on the title! Can't wait for mine to be delivered! Only gripe though was wishing the PCB had no flex cuts and were 1.6mm thick instead

@AndyVNguyen Год назад

Yeah I definitely don't like using PC plate with so many flex cuts, agreed!

@SentsuboKaishain Год назад

Love your honest review here! There are many things that wasn’t mentioned in others’ review. This help me a lot on making a decision among the new TKL GBs.

@MrSkullhead0 Год назад

Idk. I like that these options are a thing. I have had quite a number of friends come to me and ask where to start to look for keyboards. Which is great! But there is something special about those higher priced rectangles that someone put their heart and soul into to make and bring their idea to the world. I think there needs to be a mad respect for both ends of the hobby

@zyidas4116 Год назад

Awesome Video Andy! i Cop the black tkl with SS Silver gonna pair them up with Gateron Oil Kings and GMK Honor Dark!! its gonna be epic! What made me like this board is just the multiple connectivity and its creative weight designs! it literally took me days to find my favourite Colourway😂

@ImOnMy116 Год назад

Thanks for the review Andy! Just curious, is the appeal of the 7u bottom row mostly aesthetic or is there a functional benefit as well? I’ve built boards both ways and generally am slightly annoyed by missing one key vs. a standard bottom row, and have also found that some budget keycap sets are missing a 7u space bar (seemingly less common now than say 2 yrs ago), but that’s just me.

@AndyVNguyen Год назад

Aesthetic mostly. Most people don’t use that extra key. Yes some budget sets like ones on Amazon skip the 7u.

@littlebumgorf Год назад

you're pumping out reviews so fast i love it. did nuphy send you their halo65?

@matt-ec4388 Год назад

Whats your thought on this vs the Tiger 80. Also eyeing the QK75

@AndyVNguyen Год назад

They’re all not too far off but seems qk75 has more features but is a different layout

@bencarter5563 Год назад

Speaking of the stagnating high end, did you like the Synovia Andy?

@henrirobbins2343 Год назад

While I understand the logic behind needing a 6.25u layout because of the dedicated function key, they could just as easily do what 60%s do and have a 1u key next to the right shift that works as the function key. Would look a lot better, IMO. (or, just as likely, they could just have one winkey on the left and a Fn key on the right.

@pharo.3074 Год назад

joining the groupbuy last minute, video is just in time to solidify my choice

@CosmicBananaTCG Год назад

Had to go the smart route. I ordered the FreeBird 75, zoom TKL, qk75, class 80, and jris. Only board at home right now is my tiger 80. After I typed on the tiger I sold my q3/idobao/gmmkpro/bakeneko. Keyboards are fun

@AndyVNguyen Год назад

Keyboards are fun! And expensive lol

@CosmicBananaTCG Год назад

@@AndyVNguyen I bring one to work and back home everyday so the 200-300 base kit price is best for me I don't feel comfortable leaving the 1000 dollar keyboards laying around so I chose to get many instead. I made sure all 7 have different plate materials at least. Haha love the video and the ending points even if it says what I'm doing is bad

@shinjichenn Год назад

Good to see more affordable keyboards! Good vid

@muCephei_ Год назад

Appreciate your honesty. In my humble opinion though, I don't think more premium boards will offer anything significant. As long as it feels good to type on and sounds good, I would say it's a great deal!

@AndyVNguyen Год назад

I definitely agree. If you just want good sound and feel you can get it much cheaper. The premium is moreso collecting tbh. You get into very incremental gains

@vdbmario Год назад

Hoping that R2 will provide better RGB (per key) and adds a 7u Spacebar. Other than that this is a great value.

@vincentellsworth7905 Год назад

ordered the white with lilac glass weight planning on adding a lil gold leaf in the space above the arrow keys best looking tkl under $500

@SHINYAFRONINJA Год назад

wish we had all these options when i got into the hobby. my collection would be very different and smaller

@stoner2702 Год назад

How would you compare zoom tlk to the tiger 80 lite? Both are tlk board and both are praised to the heavens

@AndyVNguyen Год назад

I like lite sound better but zoom looks better

@stoner2702 Год назад

@@AndyVNguyen Thank you so much for the fast response. I will be upgrading from my kbd67 mkii and today is the last day of the gb. I checked out the build vod from your twitch channel and saw that you briefly compared them. Loving your content.

@TW2LV2 Год назад

Finally a zoom without a knob : ) might actually go for one? i dont know tho yet... way too many TKLs atm

@user-kz9rz8ui1c Год назад

In terms of ss back, I'm assuming that the steel back is similar in price since glass/whatever it is idk might be harder to work with.

@AndyVNguyen Год назад

But the glass pieces felt cheap too lol

@zhiccai Год назад

keyboard looks pretty good, lets see how it feels and types later when it arrives.

@SuperKMao Год назад

You're enter key is crooked. Don't think I didn't notice 😂. Also if they could make Tiger80 lite wireless with BT5...

@user-kz9rz8ui1c Год назад

Is 7u actually that big of a deal? Watched the stream vod and a lot of people were complaining about it, but I can't even notice the difference that much.

@AndyVNguyen Год назад

Most ppl don’t use the fourth key so 7u looks more symmetrical

This would kill the keychron q3 board if they will be in stock after the GB, otherwise the q3 is still the go to tkl board at that price.

@user-kz9rz8ui1c Год назад

If layout isn't a factor, imo the qk75 is objectively the better board. I want a tkl and I very much like the zoom tkl aesthetic, so for me, the choice is easy
