tyvm for the quick turnaround! just 2 points to clarify - wired PCB does support VIA; ISO is dropped out due to the right screw hidden inside the case as an unfortunate compromise

I might have become jaded with the whole custom keyboard group buy culture, but having a group buy interval of 2 weeks during which people can basically order unlimited amount of boards sounds pretty good to me. Miles better than those pesky raffles and FCFS's that go out of stock in 30 seconds. P.S. the editing and music choice really emits a vox vibe lol. Hope you get noticed.

I really like how you show the process of finding a preferable combination of switches and plates for your build. You show a part of this hobby that some content creators tend to gloss over: Fine tuning and personalization. Not everyone has a perfect plan from the get go on cases/kits that are pretty fresh to the scene. I really appreciate the time and effort you put into this, good work, keep it up :>

Amazing video, super in depth and I love the discussion element. I just joined the JRIS65 GB and I think I’m going to join this one as well. The budget scene has really been blowing up and I love it. I really enjoy mechanical keyboards as a hobby but as a student who doesn’t have the money to buy $300+ dollar boards, innovation within the budget space is always welcome.

Really appreciated the exploration of the balance between value, stock, and innovation. As someone who was into watches long before mechanical keyboards, I definitely saw a familiar pattern forming, in terms of tastes and attitudes. The debates around clone keycaps were especially familiar. This has been a fact of life for all luxury goods for ages, and I'd argue some amount of it is healthy. It'll be interesting to see if keyboards evolve similarly -- a la, the difference between homage and replica watches. Anyway, this is the most I thought about these comparisons, and it's thanks to you dedicating time to that exploration.

Do you feel like alu top would help improve the sound? I'm contemplating whether to go with interesting smokey plastic top, or go full alu build. Awesome video and really feel that connection with watches. You can also compare it to the recent boom of microbrands in watches. New players who are more dynamic and take more risk than the old players when designing new watches and usually at a more competitive price point.

What's the point of removing keys if you're going to criple the layout by adding and extra key afterwards? Not like it makes the board any smaller..
@coyotex850
@coyotex850 Год назад
while i understand the notion of not stocking boards, when you have such a high demand for a product like the qk65 it only makes sense to at least have extra units on standby especially when its a "budget" option....i myself wanted one but i missed the date so i just got something else and im sure many others did the same so its a missed opportunity for qwertykeys

It’s a plate support fork! It keeps the plate in the proper position while I push switches in. Not necessary for an alu plate, but since this one was a bit tight, it tended to want to go down with the switches.

There's a new almost-perfect not-that-budget keyboard every week tbh, gonna come back in 2 years or so to check what the market looks like. IMHO, thock is a meme and most pretenders are just dull, dead sounding keebs. Gaskets are not that great either. VIA is an absolute must. Things will change, we might see some nice clacky boards with fr4 plates and via in some time. Personally I don't like the qk60 sound at all vOv.
