I've had mine for the past week now and it's been a pleasure using so far. This isn't something I want to mod whatsoever. From the way it's branded and built, it doesn't seem like a keyboard that was meant to be modded imo. To each their own though. My epomaker on the other hand will get stripped and modded to the bone though lol. I also recommend the complimentary mouse to complete the aesthetic

Hi there, glad to read that you are enjoying your keyboard. Do you use a wrist rest and if so, what do you use or recommend?

[@Bz626]

@@salvamando1I’ve experimented with wrist rests before, not my thing. I prefer my wrists floating lol

[@joyaclub]

So if one prefers a tactile feel, is it simple enough to change to brown or clicky blue switches?

[@JakeReevesVideo]

Yes, the Block98 is hot-swappable 👍🏻

I wish there was a way to make the status bar a bit brighter. Kind of hard to see if CAPSLOCK is on or not when typing with the lights on.

I got this as a gift for a coworker’s desk, and I loved it so much I just got one. I’m Going to put some MT3 profile keycaps (the light Mac themed variant on Drop.) and I know it is going to look sweeet. Still plenty retro, but a little more personality. (Hopefully the white goes with the khaki.) The only complaint I have is that the branded and color matching mouse was kind of a piece of junk. It has some kind of firmware issue where the sensor doesn’t reactivate itself 100% of the time after it powers itself off after the 10 minutes of. It using it, so the mouse will connect and you can click but no movement. I’ve managed to fix it by popping it open and unplugging the battery for a few seconds. This cleared whatever error was happening and it has worked mostly fine. But not nearly as good as the keyboard. Overall, definitely something I could out on a wall and have as decoration in my office.

Awesome, thanks for sharing your experience as well. I haven’t tried the mouse, but good to know about that issue. Thanks!

Hi Jake, if I were to change the key caps like the enter and backspace, what would you recommend?

[@JakeReevesVideo]

Hmmm… I don’t have one specifically picked out, but I would probably look for something like a 9009 colourway (a bit retro) in PBT with an OEM or Cherry profile ✌🏻
