8bitdo Retro Mechanical Keyboard Review

[@mattiasboden2329]

it looks amazing! There is just one (pretty big) flaw: there is no nordic or specific EU keys available, it's US only.. If they give us that, awesome!!

[@simongrushka983]

Doesn't right alt works as the altgr key?

[@mattiasboden2329]

@simongrushka983 i meant the letters å Ä and ö 😊

[@simongrushka983]

@@mattiasboden2329 Just use altgr + letter, like everyone else

[@luppigranz1418]

the mic sound retro too, very cool

[@chaddfrancis2179]

Nostalgia is Hitting me.

[@Elibbb-sx3kg]

It's makes you FEEL like a mechanical keyboard

[@nickbrown5440]

The Nintendo of keyboards!

[@marcamusprime9513]

It makes me feel sad 😢

[@ark14700]

AU$179 is actually really competitive, same price as a Ducky and that doesn't have a metal plate

[@Oohcnap]

mic sound quality is kinda odd in this

[@Dryde85]

the greatest keyboard ever made

[@alsayedfakhri4597]

No mention of price or competitors is abit poor but the keyboard looks great!

[@bkbigd84]

Imagine spending 5 seconds and checking Amazon...

[@Diegoshadow85]

@@bkbigd84Bro it's fricking review. Saying the price isn't unheard of lol.

[@bkbigd84]

@@Diegoshadow85 maybe reply to the OP instead of me 😉.

[@PizzaHawks]

Looks great on top of the GN Flux Mat!

[@wolfsinclairgaming]

What I would like to know is if it's at all possible to use the A/B buttons as foot pedals, or is the cord too short?

[@MASARDI182]

nice review! can you kindly tell me if the buttons mapping is saved within the devices? any installation to my office laptop is restricted by the IT department (need admin pass etc). so I plan to map the buttons on my own laptop, then bring the keyboard and dualbuttons to office laptop. (i've done this method with my razer macro mouse).

[@Haunted_Hunter]

There's a third version coming out next month, comes with a joystick.

[@ginanjararyamarta1892]

For $80 it's a steal

[@TheKeithvidz]

looking the announce original xbox edition - "retro R8 mouse xbox edition" brought me here.

[@AlcidesAltamirano]

No backlit 😔😔😔😔

[@Haamuhai]

Im considering on buying this? is it worth my money?

[@johnboona4048]

Nope buy a better one lol

[@sarkarinaukar9658]

looking at him type made me wanna go type The hell out of my keyboard 😂😂😂 loved the way he smacked those big red buttons everytime he spoke about those😂😂

[@cvpoopy7887]

Does it work on MacBook?

[@eeskaatt]

that famicom one 👌

[@zcartre83]

Why does everyone hate numpads so much?

[@DanielPaladino]

Are they backlit?

[@L0vac]

No

[@ketchcoreyvideos]

Jokes 😂

[@ketchcoreyvideos]

​@L0vac obviously a joke bloke

[@mimovk]

It doesn’t work with Mac/Linux?

[@gruvhagen]

The kayboard looks great, on a side note, is funny Americans say "freedom units" to the units great brittain used to force by king command to its colonies hahahahaha

[@Phyrior]

American inches were not British inches. The British lost their prototype measures (museum fire), so they stole ours.

[@truthadjustr]

I'm not convinced. If speaking of retro, the RKH81 does it better

[@krishnateja4291]

Your Room tour

[@43SunSon]

nobody talks about the price?

[@InJeffable]

It's $100 on Amazon.

[@JoergStarkmuth]

"Freedom units" ...??? 🙄

[@kingshadow8782]

😅

[@loganholmberg2295]

I'd like one without the buttons. Its a little expensive IMO.

[@ironguy6482]

Iirc the buttons come standard

[@bean420man]

This is actually on the lower end of the price spectrum for a mechanical keyboard. It is listed for $89 on Amazon right now. This keyboard is a bargain, especially seeing as how it is hot-swappable and has a metal backplate

[@Deraphim]

Too bad I’m a Mac user…

[@lukewwilson1984]

Hey, not all decisions in life are the right ones

[@newtzrcool]

It works on mac lol

[@edman1357]

Nobody cares.

Stop talking and let me hear the keyboard

No rgb no buy

[@refurbishedaudio4090]

@@kimsunku07 💀💀 it’s called retro for a reason

[@zephryus]

stop calling it 8bitdu. you wouldn't call Nintendo: Nintendu

[@valleyforgeproductions]

It’s how 8bitdo themselves pronounce it

[@JamesSmith-uc8nt]

Only $99 quality might be questionable

[@djtomoy]

No one asked for this

[@celeste3761]

🤓

[@lukewwilson1984]

Just like no one asked for your opinion

[@BenyaminLorit]

Only because the people who would've wanted it didn't know they wanted it until they saw it.

[@valleyforgeproductions]

Factually incorrect.

[@bodyblow]

So why do they sell out instantly as soon as they become available?

[@johnnypopovich905]

Dye sublimation does not user lasers...but ok
