Is Purple the New Black? NEW Ducky Mecha Mini Review

[@_Nathan-]

Purple matches with everything if you try hard enough 😂 awesome color combo on this one

[@nathan.d.c]

For a clicky board, that spacebar sounds pretty good.

[@itscasualdave7922]

For an out of the box experience, I’m truly amazed. Great work!

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Thank you so much! I appreciate that.

[@freezingCode]

I've been using the same mech keyboard since 2013! Still working like a champ, but watching this channel has made me realize I have the noisiest spacebar on the planet. Un-lubed costar stabs. Also, the KZbin custom keyboard rabbit hole has made me want to try several other switches only to find they're not cheap, and they're out of stock! I definitely want to pick up a good TKL (or maybe try a 60 or 65%) that's hot swappable and try some different switches (although the Niz Plum is really tempting***). [Typing to you live from a grey cased 'stealth/unbranded' CoolerMaster Storm QuickFire Rapid TKL board with Cherry MX Browns with Ducky PBT caps.]

[@freezingCode]

Took apart the keyboard today and gave it its first thorough cleaning ever. Bought cabinet liner and put two layers in the bottom of the case, and also bought some Permatex to lube the Costar stabs. No more rattle in the spacebar! Sounds much better overall now.

Either you own nothing purple or EVERYTHING purple… ~ Written by someone wearing a purple shirt while typing on a purple keyboard on top of a purple desk mat next to purple encased cell phone… purple… 😌💜

[@lachlanh7911]

If a Mecha SF with hotswap comes out I’ll buy one.

[@scollurio]

Kailh Box whites are my fav switches. Also: clumsy is cute. Keep up the fine videos!

[@dnyyl_3457]

Just ordered one today waitin for it to arive thnx for the review

[@jacobec68]

Just getting into the hobby, love your videos! :)

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@cj8269]

Do you know if this keyboard is still in stock i cant find it anywhere pls helppp

[@marcchrisc.andallo7976]

Hey, nice intro out there!

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Glad you like it!

[@zivens.2407]

Thank you so much for reviewing boards for casuals who like keyboards! I really appreciate it.

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

My pleasure!

[@SSchithFoo]

I got my mecha mini today but got the ugly yellow keys instead of red as the store page showed. Then I realised it comes with random colors!

[@HybRidChrome]

I love the cat-- oh and the keyboard's neat too, yea!

[@Fourwedge]

I bought this in a different color. My first mechanical keyboard. Thank you for the great review. Of course I used your code.

[@Fourwedge]

I got it today. Thank you for the great advice on this kb.

[@pineappleapplepens]

that intro music is FIRE

[@dioneto6855]

the intro is really cool, nice review

[@manrom3039]

Was watching "WTF happened to Titanic", got a notif and was surprised with this content. TY

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Hahaha I LOVE the Titanic.

[@ZxhirZ]

The mecha mini Will always be one of my fav prebuilt boards

[@mrhaths]

just got mine. There is a noticeable ping on typing and pressing keys. anyone else have this issue/ a fix for it? thanks

[@sett0o44]

Would there be interference if I put cherry profile keycap sets on the mecha mini?

[@Jason0203]

I'm using the mecha mini (black one), feel good!

[@mallyp5506]

that purple 👌🏼 too bad it's not hot swappable

[@jtechmkb]

It's more of a preference. Purple looks good to me. Good review as always. :)

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Thank you so much! I appreciate that.

[@canuck21]

I'm waiting for Ducky to make 65% or 75% hotswappable keyboard. Why is Ducky so behind on those options?

[@schizophasie]

Hi Betty! I like your videos. Could you recommend to me a mechanical keyboard that is ergonomic and super silent? I currently use the Kechron K4 red switches... way too loud.

[@EdmundSerrano]

Hi nice review!! It’s really hard to pick between the hyperx alloy, corsair k65, and ducky mecha mini? Which one would u pick?

[@trackvegeta8716]

Do you suggest (1:52) to spend more on a mecanical keyboard to watch less reviews like switch and click :) ?

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

You can watch for the kick of it ❤️

[@mpxz999]

May I ask, where did your find that gorgeous desk mat~? Thank you for the great video!

[@evoon141]

I am look forward to buying a tkl keyboard and never looking at another keyboard agian which keyboard would you recommend me?

[@LyricalFighter]

loving the vids

[@whalex745]

looking for some linear and silent switches, do yall have any suggestions?

[@WabbitCrouton]

Wanted to get a Ducky One 2, but they are quite hard to get through my country's retailer.

[@edgarceja9826]

Me looking at this already owning 3 ducky keyboards. I think I should stop purchasing. Great review by the way!

[@AnitaSpankyBB]

Those purple key caps reminds me of majong tiles 😄😄😄

[@bastiiiii]

keychron with lk optical switches or epomaker with gateron optical switches?

[@traaaaan]

The purple keys look like hk gaming pudding caps on Amazon. I have the same set in orange for about $20 and use some of the keys on my keychron.

[@notmighty_3650]

guys how do i turn off game mode in this keyboard?

[@jamesvliet2137]

what are you doing with that board can i buy it ?

[@MrFreeze79]

lol i wasnt expecting that hairy man hand, handling that board lol threw me off a little.

[@chippy5582]

do you really have to say that lol what a douche

[@MrFreeze79]

@@chippy5582 I didn't mean anything offensive by the comment, lighten up. Buddy,, she knew it was a joke. Not very nice of you to call me that.

[@bastiiiii]

keychron with opticals or epomaker with opticals?

[@subatomiczero]

Kinda liking it but I am holding out for a custom 65

[@hp5898]

Hey the discord link doesn’t work? Is it still possible to join the discord?

[@geeebs1020]

Please do a review on the Epomaker SK87 Abs Wired/Wirelesss please’!!

[@JoshTechgamer]

this looks beautiful i love purple

[@arcturus0389]

Why is the RGB so flickery in the b roll shots? is it like that irl? if so thats a dealbresker

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Not real life, it's the shutter speed

[@arcturus0389]

@@SwitchandClickOfficial For future videos, can tou consider using a different shutter speed for b roll? its really straining for my eyes and im sure others may feel the same/may be an epilepsy concern. Keep up the good work Betty!

[@lionhearto6238]

great vid! can you recommend me a rgb keyboard like this but multi-device?

[@davidg1564]

Will you be doing a review for the Ducky mecha sf radiant(65%)? It would also be nice to compare it to the Miya Pro since it’s your #1 65% keyboard

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Yes I will. I've got one with me, just no time yet. And I will think about that comparison

[@OwenWagoner]

Other than the keycaps and overall color scheme, is this one any different than the normal black Mecha Mini?

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

nah

[@simoninovich958]

where do you buy this?

[@enviroyt1938]

I have a question is it out yet. ?

[@pgc2455]

4:22: Is that a fitness tracker you have on your left hand?

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Yes, fitbit charge 4 hr? I use it primarily to track my biking sessions

[@WoollyMittens]

Pudding caps finally get justice!

[@annabelle7123]

Yay~~ love purple 💜 and pudding key caps 😉

[@annabelle7123]

What do you think about IQUINIX F96? It is pricey but I think it's got everything: Bluetooth multi-paring or USB C, 96% layout, beautiful key caps with quality, colorful designs, cherry switches... it's just PRICEY, haha Btw, I know what you mean by loving and enjoying your keyboard... I just turned on the computer at night and wanted to start work at home next morning, just to use my lubed keyboard, haha

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Haven't used it yet. But I will sometime in the new coming months

[@bastiiiii]

what are the smoothest switches you felt? Gateron opticals?

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Hmmmm probably those weird Roccat opticals

[@jasonlewis5630]

came for the keyboard stayed for the cat

Yes, but with some interference

[@LordFprquad]

@@SwitchandClickOfficial thanks for the quick reply, but what interferences will be visible?

[@kennynguyenlifestyle9264]

I didn't find "betty rants" part, it was my fav

[@Unknown-figure.]

Hi can you please help me to buy a good keyboard with a low price hope u reply

[@desopilancia]

You went heavy on the "and Click" for this one

[@xzan837]

Better than ducky one 2 mini?

[@youraveragewomanenjoyer5570]

Yes

[@StefanBacon]

"buying things once is the best" (uploads frequent videos each showing a newly acquired variation on a product that does approximately the same thing as the one in the previous video) You know I love your channel, have to give some crap though for the irony :) I, too, have way too many keyboards.

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Great point! I also debated having this point of view, but I do stand by it despite reviewing keyboards

[@StefanBacon]

It's better detailed reviews are available so as many people as possible can make informed decisions and reduce needless consumption overall.

[@jordansneaky6356]

Hi I bought this board about half a year ago with silent reds using your code I appreciate you responding to my email

[@Lord_Mad_Dog]

I just want that keycaps set lol. I already know that 60% is too small

[@stevenromero7879]

Where do you guys even buy boards? Everything is always sold out on Mechanicalkeyboards

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

We waited for this one for like three months...

[@normalguy7877]

Which do you think is the best 100$ hot swappable keyboard

No

Purple gang

[@sarinjaro]

It’s out of stock 🥺

[@vickemannen9276]

*Crying in ISO Nordic* Btw if someone knows where you could get nice keycaps in Nordic layout, I’m all ears :)

[@beaflm]

If you are willing to wait the group buy time, KAT group buys normally have a European Kit with Nordic keys. Sometimes there are European Kits on other profiles, but it is a lot more uncommon

[@xinyi_yap]

DID SOMEONE SAY PURPLE KEEB? TO A PURPLE HAIRED PERSON?

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Hahaha so it can match something after all

[@bibliusz777]

got this keyboard and was disappointed there's rattle, some keys are much harder too press, much friction on the spacebar and it's unevenly distrubuted

[@bibliusz777]

not to mention that this purple is not the one i'd like and it was the longest delivery (over 3 months), since i also ordered extra keycaps that were supposed to be shine through

[@chippy5582]

hope they could make a ducky mecha mini that is wireless :( cool video btw!

[@KickM3.]

Can i have? 🤧😢😭 Availability is mid month of MAY 😭

[@fluffymoose1129]

Not minimalistic at all. Pretty good build though.

[@kristoffertangnes3640]

when u only play gta so u need 100% keyboard: yikes

[@T16skyhopp]

maybe you should just get more purple things

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Maybe

[@BenedictTanShanWen]

Floating keycap designs will never be rank as "durable" regardless of how sturdy the case is. Every corner switch with a sheared off stem I've ever had to desolder for someone had floating keycap design and a backpack in common.
