Can't afford the Cycle7? | Epomaker Shadow-X Review

2023 for keyboards is an interesting one. The sudden trend for FRL TKL are the one’s I’m rooting for and previous years showed off the community's interest in LED screens and knobs. Now imagine combining all of that and wrapping it all in an affordable package. This is the Epomaker Shadow-X and for 86 USD, is it worth it?

got mine on sale for 43 bucks with the wisteria linear switches. I cleaned and and relubed all the switches and stabilizers. "saw they did lube them but only very lightly". Replaced the keycaps with some other double shot caps i had any my god it feels better then some of the keyboards i have spent 200+ on.

Great video and take brother! It does sound great out of the box!

[@samuelll3166]

I was contemplating using one of these for my partner as she needs a new keyboard for her set up. I couldn’t believe the price of this unit when I looked around. You dropping a review in the same week feels like fate! Sounds amazing and I was pleasantly surprised by the sound profile change with the tape mod.

Eyy glad you liked it!

[@JosePto]

I hope this brand makes QMK keyboards soon...

[@Redino20]

Your video production gets better and better :)

[@CaviteTechnology]

Thanks! :D

where i live i found it on my native amazon for 72 usd so, rlly good

[@crisdotph]

Love the keyboard, hate the knob. Don't understand why not just make it a volume knob. Can't blame for that price though.

[@ZenothWG]

What is better? EK68 Vs TH80 SE Vs Shadow X? and what switches do you think its better, blue bird or budgerigar or flamingo?

[@DvineDragoon]

cheaper and has a knob + screen? seems like a pretty cool option for people who are into more mainstream keyboards!

[@NorthA9]

seems like a good deal to me though

[@mechanicalmacroni5108]

How does the shadow x compare to the Epomaker ek68?

[@CaviteTechnology]

It looks to have the same gunmental finish but it's miles apart from the EK68 in terms of ease of disassembly and the gasket mount design :)

[@TmgtchRyu]

86 usd? Count me in!

[@wuzihuzi]

So the knob don't even control volume? Useless.

[@mavericksfans]

dude, can you remap the knob to other function in the app?

[@CaviteTechnology]

sadly nope
