Btw I own the th80 x and the knob does work as a volume knob. All you have to do is Fn + knob click and it switches to volume mode. Repeat the same key press to go back into settings mode :)

00:02 🎮 Confusion with Epomaker TH80 keyboards: Three keyboards, same name, same price, different models, causing confusion for buyers. 00:31 📦 Reviewing all three Epomaker TH80 keyboards: A comprehensive test to determine the best choice among them. 01:12 💡 Pricing and models complexity: TH80, TH80 Pro, TH80 X, and TH80 SE have similar pricing but distinct features, creating confusion. 02:21 💰 Pricing disparity: Epomaker's website and Amazon offer different prices for the same keyboards, making it essential to compare before purchasing. 03:47 🛠 Modifiability of Epomaker TH80 series: Hot-swappable switches, keycaps, but plastic case and potential issues like missing screws. 04:44 🎹 Keycap and switch details: TH80 uses Daub PBT keycaps and Flamingo linear switches; suggested trying due to Amazon's return policy. 05:20 🔊 Sound and feel disappointment: Despite expectations, the TH80's sound and feel at $89 fall short of fantastic. 07:42 🌈 Gateron Pro Yellow switches: A recommended upgrade over Flamingos; offer improved feel and sound quality. 08:49 🔄 TH80 SE distinctiveness: It differs significantly from the others, offering a unique design, but lacks ISO option for European users. 11:08 🔧 Modifying the TH80 SE: Lack of screws and gasket performance issues prompt attempts at modifications, such as tape and kinetic sand, to improve sound and feel. 13:41 💡 Best choice among the three: TH80 SE stands out despite some drawbacks; other keyboards may offer better value, like the Kyron V1.

[@-mhayes86]

I picked up the TH80 Pro earlier last year as my first mechanical keyboard to jump into the hobby. I really liked the sound and feel of it stock, but have since modded it a bit as I've learned more. The Gateron yellow switches feel and sound great, and more so after manually lubing them. I've tape modded it and added some foam, and think it sounds better now. While the stabilizers are factory lubed, they could probably use some more. It's definitely a good entry board, though it is a bit of a pain to get inside for modding.

[@80centjack]

I bought the standard pro in a different color 18 months ago and changed out the switches for morandis and now I really like it quite a bit. It is really hard to take apart, though.

[@danieltdp]

"I'd consider good 2 years ago" is a strange sentence for a keyboard, since they don't evolve that much

[@bhentehquatroh1]

You would think. But if you were a part of the Covid boom of keyboards back in March 2020; you can tell the boards back then (that were hella pricey btw because of how limited they are) don't have the same tech that boards today have. And so much change happened too. Like the Tape mod (AKA Tempest Mod) and the most popular one is the Jelly PE foam mod, that a lot of the keyboards these days have because of that one single foam. People who are deep in this rabbit hole will tell you more about it but those are just one of the popular ones.

[@danieltdp]

@bhentehquatroh1 cool! Thanks for the clarification

[@GraboS21]

i am owner of th80pro. It is my first mechanical keyboard. Ive had it for 3 months now and im glad of this choice. Ive bought it with brown swtiches but after some time ive changed them to Akko v3 yellow cream and ive got white pudding keycaps from amazon.

[@dreadwolfrising]

Speaking of Epomaker, I recently bought the EK98 barebones on a whim. I havent been able to find any reviews on YT, reddit, or elsewhere so I'd love hear feedback from others. I personally thought it was good for the $30-$60USD you can get it for on sale, but it was an absolute PAIN to open up and mod, and it needed extra foam/polyfil and a stab change

[@ryanwb66]

I bought my th80 pro monet with flamingos for 65$ cad (48$ USD). Epomaker had a sale on their website. I'd say WELL worth it coming from a keychron v1.

I bought the TX80-X (flamingo switches) and I have to say, this is a big step up for me coming from Corsair K95 Platinum with speed switches. Also it was $95 cheaper than Corsair! It does sound incredible, well at least to me it does, I'm by no means an keyboard enthusiast, but I'm very impressed with it! Also the software is... how to say it lightly... confusing and not pleasant, would much prefer if it was VIA compatible. I will have to correct you on the knob, in my unit it does indeed work as volume knob and other things, maybe the unit sent to you was bogged or something? All in all though, I'm very happy with this keyboard, will probably look at modding this keyboard to perfection for me. Great video though bud! Keep it up

[@chocomoojuice]

Bought th80 pro as an entry point into mechanical keyboard space since it was in stock and affordable. Unfortunately in Canada, many nicer custom keyboard options require you to pay for shipping and duties to import from the US on top of an already expensive base price. I figure mechanical keyboards are modular upgrade wise so you can always upgrade different pieces later. Software is quite bad though, but enough for me to make remap pgup/down to home/end. Thanks for the comprehensive comparison of different epomaker products!

[@th3fr0gus]

I bought the pro version, but barebones, slapped some akko lavender v3 pros, cheap amazon keycaps (I dont care if the abs plastic starts to shine) and some quick mods. I have to say this keyboard is pretty nifty, for the price it is a great budget option if you dont want to wait for a sale for other brands such as keychron or gamakay. The one thing that pisses me off is the disassembly of the case, but other than that, its a pretty nice budget keyboard. I am currently experimenting with other switches and might even make a whole new keyboard, feel free to ama about this keyboard.

[@cokebottles6919]

I have the TH80 and like it after I switched out the keycaps. My biggest issue has been with the wireless consistently glitching out forcing me to keep it wired. It's fairly thocky, but I do want more.

[@GoblinAlchemi]

I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the TH80 Pro as my starter custom board because Amazon has the prebuild it on sale for $45. Honestly, for $45, this thing feels great (I thought light linears would be my jam, but I didn't realize they would be THAT much better for me than the Cherry MX Browns I was stuck with on my old gamer board). Opening it was actually way easier than I was expecting. I thought I wouldn't be opening it frequently because every review I saw had people struggling with it, but I read a comment saying to use an old gift card/credit card, and it worked like a charm. Currently, I have the PCB taped, and it sounds really poppy (tho a bit loud and hollow with a noticeable spring ping from some switches, but I'll see what I can do to fix that later). I'm super glad I figured that out too, because I can't wait to experiment a bunch with the modifications and see just how nice I can make this budget board ^^ This keyboard started with some minor frustrations, but has turned into an incredibly fun project that has made me think critically on what I want from a keyboard and how I can modify it to suit needs that I hadn't even realized I had before lol. Now, it's a smaller keyboard that feels better, sounds better, and has more functionality than any full-sized+ gamer keyboard I've ever used (I just wish the software was ever so marginally better lmao)

[@mudawott]

I have no idea why, but Epomaker stuff, even when compared to other budget options is always cheaper where I am in the world. Probably a shipping thing or something, but. Still probably better to save up an extra few tenners and just buy a keychron V1 as you said. The QC will be better, the modability is nicer, it comes with a ton more foam. At least the Epomakers switch line up is pretty great.

[@CFDBlakestr]

I am currently writing from one and have several mechanical keyboards. The one I find to be the most comfortable is the ducky one 2 sf. The epomaker has a nice sound to it (yellows) but feels a bit stiffer, I think because of the keycaps, its overall size and shape. The ducky has silent reds, is super silent (no pun intended!), which I love, and just makes me type super fast, I almost forget it's there. Conclusion, I keep the ducky at desk for work with my main setup (a laptop and a 24'' screen) and the epomaker serves me when I want to got out of my desk, I have a 32" 4K monitor that is pointing to a more leisury kind of area where I consume content and for that nothing beats wireless.

[@ohLurch]

I bought the TH80 SE a few month ago (with budgerigar switches) and it sounded amazing stock. I say "sounded" because I've tape modded it since then (for more thock) and soon after that I changed the switches out for Kailh speed silvers (because gamer) and it still sounds great although not as thocky anymore. I just ordered the Akko "Waves" keycaps now that they're finally back in stock and currently trying to decide between Gateron KS-3 Pro milky yellows or the 2.0 reds so who knows what this board will sound like in a couple weeks. I love this board.

[@Loktuzov]

I hate screwless boards so much. My yz75 is warped on the bottom because of the stupid no screw design. Also the yz75 (which is honestly just rebranded epomaker board) has stabilizing risers inside that ruin modability by turning tape mods from a 30 second tape up to a 3 hour precision job.

About two years ago, I got the TH80 Pro with Gateron Pro Black switches. Before that, I built two custom keyboards and bought four prebuilt ones. But in the end, I stuck with the TH80 Pro.

[@R3APER-350xx]

watched this waiting on mine to arrive oddly enough, was honestly expecting it to be a bit harder to take apart albeit it still wasnt the easiest thing in the world, if you fill it with more foam it does get easier to take it back apart but the on/off switch on the bottom like to recess making it harder to turn on, which isnt a huge deal personally mostly because i have small screwdrivers laying around my desk and i got it like half off and wanted a board to test out switches that isnt my daily driver

As a proud owner of the th80 se, i am proud to say i only got it because it matched the black and purple theme of my setup

I use a epomaker th66 as my daily and its yet another very different version then what you reviewed. it has a thicc black foam liner in the base of the case, full rgb, no silicone gasket instead has foam strips, the software for remapping hotkeys is not compatible, there's no 2.4ghz module. overall i like the thing but the gdmf delete key is FN+page down. the stock switches (linear red) are terrible and 2 of them went bad after about 1 year of use. swapped them out with some cheap otaku low profile black switches and now its nearly silent but for a low thocc. the plastic trim is super easy to remove just start at the front then sides and the back hinges out and up dont try and unclip the back. its so easy to clean this keyboard which is a huge plus.

Likewise for being a able to adjust sound with the knob and having gifs ans such. It does however suck that they don't have screws on it, nor that the switch options when buying are limited to old versions of Gaterons. The software is okay-ish, I agree.

Actually, the Th80-X can control volume, you have to press Fn+knob and it changes to multimedia mode (volume control basically!) :D

[@theDitchdigger456]

just a heads up, those are not gateron pro yellows, the V1 pros have a non-frosted south-facing LED diffuser and the V2s have a frosted LED diffuser. It looks like those yellows dont have either.

in fact I'm pretty sure the only difference between the V1s and V2s are that LED diffuser but I could be wrong there.

I quite liked the typeface on the X, and the screen thing. At least you can switch between Win and Mac there - on the SE it looks like that function is on the bottom of the keyboard. And if it can be used for volume (which other posters say it can) then it's more attractive.

This is hilarious! I actually have the tan / yellow / red volume knob version of this TH80 and it's by far my favorite to type on, the feel of the flamingos, the sound and especially those keycaps! However, I do wish I could get a set of keycaps that felt just like these that were more transparent for RGB's sake. I've had this keyboard for just over a year and my typing absolutely sucks, and I believe it's because the flamingos actuate way before they reach the bottom of the stroke - and I really hate that. Any suggestions? I seem to like thocky linears that require a bit more pressure to actuate. Do those even exist!? I've modded several keyboards now and know a little about what you're talking about and appreciate your videos very much! It's a fun hobby to get into.

The TH96 was my first entry into the "custom" mechanical keyboard space and I'll always be grateful for that, however, there are better options on the market that don't gate you behind the Epomaker proprietary software. No doubt these boards are solid for beginners, but as long as they're the floor, and not the ceiling, the hobby is in a great place. I bought the TH80 though shortly after, and still have it. I put some hand lubed Drop Holy Panda X switches in it and love the sound and feel of it. I will also say, another major gripe about these boards is how they're constructed. I don't trust clips. One wrong move and you break it and that's basically the end of your board. It really discourages modding. Not saying you can't mod, but if you're not nailing it in the first go, you're going to keep putting stress on the case. I wish they would just make a version with screws that was more reliable.

[@MrGun1]

algorithm made me watch your video but one thing I noticed about your cat...let it chew cardboard like that whenever it can. it's the way your cat is cleaning its teeth. If you take that away, the impact on its teeth can be pretty bad. My cat years ago used to do it and on his vet checkups, the vet would remark about how clean his teeth were, but we never figured out why. There were always boxes somewhere and he'd do exactly what your cat is doing. His teeth rapidly declined soon after cardboard boxes were no longer available.

Honestly for that price just get a Keychron V1. Monsgeek M1 or Drop Sense 75 are also good options, but you do need to buy keycaps and switches for them :P That's what I got, and nothing can beat at least IMHO, the M1... this thing is built like a freaking tank!

I would prefer the black TH one, even stock, than a keychron V series. It sounds way better and it carries cherry/OEM keycaps in a nice color. Keychron has quickly gained popularity because of one splendid, functional and simple website where the novice user cannot be confused by colors, switches and keycaps variety. But this does not mean all boards may appeal to anyone or be superior than other similar budget keyboards. North facing leds mean one useful feature not a drawback; one set of compatible shine through keycaps can offer extra relief and readability in low light environment.

So is it good or not

The video length is fine. Watch a KZbin short if you can't spend 15 minutes of your life learning about 4 keyboards that you could potentially spend $80-90 of your money on...

[@milesfromhome69]

Heads up, I'm returning TH80 due to chatter and it causing random pc issues (audio output switching randomly, mouse not working, keys not working etc). Also I'm having to pay their postage. Save yourself the hassle and just get a Keychron or a Kludge.

I ordered the Pro literally an hour before this video was posted, all to build my cousin her first keyboard. Wish I had a time machine.

[@sudowo3688]

which barebones kit would you recommend? either out of these or around the same price point

[@colyerah]

I got this one in the monet colorway with gateron pro yellow switches, its great!! The thock is great out of the box, the spacebar is just a little rattly, but im sure it can be fixed

[@ssquirrel88]

1982 called, the Commodore 64 wants thier keyboard back.

[@kobalt_ren01]

I definitely had my eye on one of these for a while, seemed like one of the best options for something hotswap and with ISO support, but I wasn't really a fan of either the Theory or Monet styles that the ISO version came in (oh how I wish the SE's purple look came in ISO)

[@redbad]

I have the th80 pro with yellow milky pro switches and some foam and tape mods and it sounds so nice!!

[@adam.m220]

just bought the th80 SE with gateron pro yellow 2.0 switches W or L? also i bought it for $46 USD (66 aud) which is like insanely good deal ngl

[@mmonkeyman1403]

I've had this keyboard for about 2 years now and it's pretty solid. Nothing more to say about it really, its just fine.

[@lucasdude]

so im pretty new to the whole keyboard thing. the th80 pro was not my first, but the way i got it was risking it through their $50 mystery box. since then ive gotten better keycaps for it & i really like how it looks & sounds now; although i know i can make it sound even better & plan to. mine came with the pro yellows so that was pretty good but ill probably get different switches here soon (im thinking ktt haluhalos to match my keycaps). i still need to do a bit of modding & i think the stab wire for my spacebar is just slightly bent so need to fix that. but overall im liking it especially for the price i paid lol

[@wanderingintheabyss]

I don't know anything about keyboards, but that purple one is pretty. I do prefer more quieter keys.

[@mojoneko8303]

Instead of using Kinetic sand to dampen the bottom of the th80 case why not just pour some Flex Seal into the bottom of the case? About an 1/8" thick layer of it in the bottom of the case should dampen it pretty well. It would probably be permanent though, removing the flex seal would be hard to do unless you applied a release agent to the case. You should give it a try and let us know what you think. 🙂 Thanks for the video.

[@HipyoTech]

Totally could - I have used flex seal in a lot of that type of case and it works great - just hesitant to use around a battery

[@heavenecho]

I bought the pro but in the monet colour because it was going cheap and i just can't let go of ISO uk layout 😢. End of the day it's was still better than my old mechanical keyboard that didn't have any customisation 😅.

[@Darkshadow7890]

I love the th80 se its my first “custom” keyboard and ive been loving it

[@splitzer_yt2357]

I wanted a good keyboard and this one is perfect but i wanted to know if it was better than a apex pro mini or apex 9 tkl in the input delay and how many key we can press at the same time with the Epomaker TH80 SE
