I'd only not like it if the product release is a scam or something. Edit: But I guess I just share a different tolerance for 'thoughtful design'. To be fair, there is definitely room to improve at that price, I agree with that. But the design goal for something 'trendy' doesn't seem bad.

I feel like at that price, keycaps should've been doubleshot.

[@jack_2612]

for that price, I'd say there are too many corners being cut. For 350 I'd require proper foam, pre-lubed switches (I mean you sell the keyboard with linears by default ffs), stabs, full aluminum body and top notch keycaps. If not doubleshot, at least high quality.

I think the problems we see here is the challenge, that new companies that wants to do hardware face, is that if you don't already have a foot in the market. Manufactures will charge you more than they do for well-established companies like Logitech, Razer, Apple, etc. It feels like they had a vision but couldn't achieve it to its fullest. This also reflects on the price compared to the material and the lack of quality assurance on some aspects-as well as the keycaps which just _seem_ cheap. It makes it obvious on where they spent their money; and I think they chose wisely, considering their situation. But this is just a hunch based on my own experience, working at a company who also deliver their own hardware. We haven't been able to upgrade the design without a huge payout. And the one's it's going to hurt the most, is the end-consumer that will feel they didn't get what they paid for.

[@CheeseTurbulence]

That's my suspicion as well, I have no experience in the hardware field, so I didn't want to make any unqualified assumptions.

[@danparmenter525]

I personally enjoy the transparent prison device look rather than beige or carbon black. I usually just throw away the plastic case on keyboards, saves weight and space to just run the device exposed. Makes it easier to see when you're being prompted/phreaked if you can see the LEDs directly. Dunno why they don't just make the base out of CF or glass fiber bonded to the circuit board.

[@AlexReyes-t9i]

While I'm a bit upset with how this keyboard is priced for what it offers, it's still interesting enough for me to consider it as my next keyboard purchase now that I've grown tired of using my G915 TKL (practically any boutique LP keyboard is now able to beat that thing). Hopefully future iterations and manufacturing steps can help make it more worth its asking price because this keyboard already provides a strong base to build from

[@ImOnMy116]

appreciate the thoughtful review and genuine criticism! I think in seeing products like this, it’s hard to know what kind of individual is designing it and what the aim is. From the outside looking in, I’d not think there was much of a market for a rather expensive low profile keyboard, but if such a market existed, I’d expect it to be populated by slightly more discerning individuals (such as yourself). If so, I’d expect more attention to detail (like better prelubed stabilizers, keycap quality / compatibility, etc.). I’m pretty strictly in the full travel MX switches camp (both for feel and compatibility), so I feel out of place trying to speak to what folks expect from this.

[@Blacksadify]

I can chime in as someone who daily drives a low profile keyboard, and has for years. Many people inaccurately think that these should be geared for travel, or to sit on a Mac/laptop instead of using the normal keyboard. That simply isn't the case, and is why a lot of these products don't do as well as they potentially could. The majority of the market is geared toward cheap, light low profile boards built for "travel" that rarely happens. Instead, they should be focusing on just making a very high end board and good typing experience that people will daily drive. I think of it as a bit of a mirror to the SFF PC case market, where you're going to have less people buying overall, but who don't mind paying higher than average prices for something that's good quality. It's really not that different from what people are looking for in the 65-75% keyboard market, just with a lower profile. Gasket mount or something similar, good switch choices, hot swappable, 2.4g and BT, good battery life, good stabs, customizeable RGB, sound dampening layers, good build quality, etc. There are only a handful of low profile boards available that fit even this basic criteria which can be found on $75 regular keyboards, which is weird. It's almost like a self fulfilling prophecy: They make shitty low end low profile boards because it's a smaller market, then the market continues to stay small because the offerings are terrible, rinse and repeat. The new low-profile Iqunix Magi65 is superior to this board in every way, imo, and it's considerably cheaper. There are some good options out there, but not all that many.

[@insu_na]

If I had to guess then I'd say the stabilizer wasn't lubed because all the common switch lubes we use are PFAS or "forever chemicals" in other words, and the manufacturer of this board tried to give an environmentally friendly vibe.

[@ImOnMy116]

@@Blacksadify appreciate the response, and totally track that what you’re sharing makes sense! To clarify, when I said full-travel, I was referring to the travel distance of the key press. Standard Cherry MX switches have a 4 mm travel to bottom out. From a quick google, choc switches have a travel of about 3 mm. Agree that for those that like a low profile board, it shouldn’t be exclusively limited to lightweight / lower quality feeling boards. I was just saying for myself, I like a longer travel switch.

[@Blacksadify]

@@ImOnMy116 Oh, I see what you're saying. I misunderstood. Yeah, I could see that being a point of contention if you're used to a longer travel time on keystrokes. I've used LP keyboards for long enough now that it's just second nature having shorter travel distance.

[@CheeseTurbulence]

@ImOnMy116 Thank you as always! 🙂

[@ProtoPropski]

This keyboard looks good, and all, and I've used low profile keyboards most of my life given I grew up with laptops where you tended to see them more often. Although having used a mecahnical keyboard with good switches for a year at this point. I see why there's people who hate low profile keyboards. Think of it like this, you wouldn't bring Crocs in Sport Mode to a Marathon, and even if you did no matter how good of a runner you are you will simply never run as fast, and far as someone wearing sneakers with built in spring suspension, because those shoes was built to snap your heel back up after hitting the ground. it's the sensation of the shoe's material, and design that puts a spring in your step, and eleviates the strain of repetitive motion, the same can be said with a mechanical keyboards it's clicky key's give you tactile feedback that adds a spring to your typing, and eleviates fatigue from long typing sessions no matter what you might be writing about. In short while this is good, it will never feel as responsive, or as satisfying as a mechanical keyboard. so IMO just isn't something for me, and the price makes that fact even more apparent, quiet =/= good.

Not a new company in any sense but technicality. This keyboard is definitely designed and I'm assuming produced/sold by the same dude who made the Work Louder Nomad[E] and the KNOB k.no.b.1, I'm not sure why he feels the need to make a new company every single time he designs a new product. If this isn't made by him I don't know what to think because it's the exact same font and content style across all three companies websites/product pages, exact same product design motif, and they even seem to share a lot of parts the most noteable being the knobs. I can't think of a single reason to do this sort of brand splitting unless you've got some sort of grift going on but whether that's the case or what the grift is if it is the case I'm not certain of.

I’d love to get one of these keyboards….. if the keys were backlit.

I'll stick with my Nuphy Air 60 V2 for 1/4 this price and much more modability and very nice build quality for a low profile small layout - I can live without the Function row and have 75/96 layouts in Halo, Gem, and Air as well as some other brands, but Nuphy is by far my favorite for hardware, not so much software.
