[@imreallyslimy]

The board itself looks pretty nice, I don't know if it is worth the $800 pricepoint but I'd see why people would want to get it.

[@voldem0rt]

I can tell you cost is not a factor for those that buy it. I bought Cyberboard R3, the previous round and I can tell you compared to a retail bought keyboard there is no comparison. I do not recommend buying the built edition, unless you want the keycaps or switches or if AM offered the soldered pcb with the switches pre-soldered. The base model allows you to put in your own switches and keycaps with out having to pay an additional 200$ for stuff you don't want or need. The board is insanely high build quality. It is unique in keyboards thanks to its huge LED array display and if you are not someone who like to carry or own guns, this is a great substitute because it could certainly stop the majority of commonly used bullets in petty/small crimes and it could also fight back and crush a skull in. What I am saying is, even at $800 before shipping and shit, it is incredibly worth it. Not many boards are as unique and fun to type on as the Cyberboard. But..... If you really fall down the custom keyboard rabbit hole... might I suggest you find yourself a Hatsu. Its basically 2x the cost of the cyberboard and is about as perfect a wireless split ergo full of sex appeal a keyboard can be. It really is like playing god when typing on the Hatsu. =)

[@gamesjunkie]

Yeah, I'm really not sure what's more disgusting. The fact they charge so much for so little, or the fact people actually pay it just to say they own one. Does it look nice? I think so. But there's no excuse for how mediocre this board is for the absurd price.

[@CinceTheDay]

you're on track, especially considering that you can get a Dry Studio Black Diamond 75 fpr $300 (if you're going for "the look") that (to be fair) also uses the ali caps but performs more than decent on the other parts.

[@gamesjunkie]

Regardless of any features, the fact that AngryMiao has the gall to charge 800 bucks for a mediocre keyboard with a 100% plastic case is appalling.

[@xanira6367]

Bruh, look up the "Optimus Maximus keyboard" from the mid-2000s. It was being developed by a Russian design studio and each and every key cap was to have its own tiny OLED display. Theoretically, this meant that each could be programmed with custom images, capable of displaying any conceivable keyboard layout in any language. Unfortunately, it turned out to be vapourware. Smaller keypads eventually saw the light of day, but they were buggy and had some high CPU usage. The original keyboard, had it actually been released, would have been $1600.
