I recommend for beginners buying boards and whatever for modding on sale. I bought a Keychron on sale and bought keycaps on sale. The only semi stupidly expensive thing I bought was my cable, but that was based off of several things I sat on for a few says before buying and I'm glad I did. Keychron was for my first modding attempt and I have three other boards I bought a while ago to also hopefully mod.

[@Defiancy]

If you’re looking for a 65 percent with a knob, get the GMK67. It’s like 50-60 bucks and I love it. It’s my favorite board just cause the accessibility and value you get. I use it more than my Zoom TKL even.

I personally run a Keychron K8 and IMO, it's not bad. If you need a hot-swap board with bluetooth because your work gave you a laptop and you hate its built in keyboard, then the K series is probably a good start. They also have released the K8 Pro which has south facing LEDs, is customizable with VIA, and has foam included, while still being hot-swap and bluetooth capable. Saving up for that one. Keychron is generally a good recommendation for budget boards. They have almost every form factor and layout available. There are better choices, of course, but they're a good start.

Hey Hipyo, awesome video! My Zoom 65 v2 is finally coming in next week after ordering during the group buy in late January. The biggest thing I've learned getting into this hobby is you need to be extremely patient. (Or having unlimited money also helps. XD) If you do have the patience then group buys seem to be the best value proposition. The TKD Cycle7 group buy coming up looks like it will be a great value if you are just jumping on the bandwagon and missed the Zoom 65 & 75. Also, it's exciting to see that it is fully CNC aluminum compared to other "entry level" custom keyboards that use cast aluminum parts to reduce manufacturing costs.

I bought a GMMK pro about a year and half ago, at that time it was like the ONLY remotely custom option you could get in France without paying stupidly high import fees. I bought an open box through Amazon warehouse (which was just opened and never used, prolly because the dude wanted an ISO layout and it was ANSI), so saved a bit of money there, bought some switches that I lubed, some durock V2 stabs, some nice keycaps and it ended up being around 250€ while sounding incredible. I tried the polycarb plate but it was meh, not holding the switches properly so I went back to the stock alu plate. Removed the internal foam to give room for the gaskets, did a tape mod and now the keeb sounds pretty incredible. Honestly I understand how overpriced it might look, but if you know what you're doing it can still be a great board at a decent price if other options are not available. Glorious is a bigger company than most other keeb companies, even keychron so their products are more available in general.

[@ritvikgaddam4282]

gmmk pro was a good competitor 2 years ago, but it's just a waste of money if you were to buy it now. The budget options outlass the gmmk pro, speaking from personal experience after buying the gmk67 with KTT kang whites, it sounded a lot better than my gmmk with tangerienes, and it surprized me so much. And the gmk67 build was 80$ total while the gmmk pro came to aorund 250$. So yeah I honestly dont think the gmmk pro is worth it anymore.

I love your videos and the work that you do. I owe you an apology, Hipyo. When I first started getting into custom keyboards, a little over 2 years ago, I made a comment about a 150 dollar keyboard "not really being budget friendly". I was coming from keyboards in the 25 to 50 dollar range at the time and had the opinion that 100 dollars was an expensive keyboard. Now that I've had time to assess the HUGE difference in quality and experience, BOY WAS I WRONG. I'm an IT tech, and while I have nice peripherals at home and in my own workspace, I get reminded on a daily basis when using client's stuff how much better even the 150 dollar "budget" options are that I started out with a couple of years ago. Today, I personnally don't have an issue with paying 200 to 300 dollars for a keyboard. Not only are the quality and experience worth it, but if something does happen to go wrong with the keyboard, I'm not just throwing it away and buying another complete keyboard. The same goes for not liking some aspect of the keyboard. With switches, keycaps, plates, cases, and most other parts being individually replaceable, they can be swapped out at any time. In the long run, the original investment of 150 dollars or more can actually even end up saving money. So, with all that being said, I am sorry for my original noob comment that I made. Today, I completely get it, now that I'm educated, and will never go back to what I call the "trash" category of keyboards.

I bought an Royal Kludge RK68 on prime day. Aluminum case. Blue switches hotswappable. I just put some eva foam sheets in it and presto shes sounds beautiful

[@yusunai]

For my european friends, get the reddragon k552 Rgb,Hot swapable, solid price (47€ for white and 43€ for black variant) Red switches It is great after sound modding as well.

[@xyrezarckerman2024]

grass is always greener syndrome - and driven by the motive of "it sounds amazing" and the word "thock" but it all works the same.

[@hydrothermalworm7778]

The Womier 60% was my first hotswap keyboard. Blue taped the PCB, stuffed the cavity with high density packing material, and swapped the the switches for milky yellows and it's 🤌

[@end_slayer]

This made it harder. I’m good with putting work into my keyboard but I also want a keyboard I know will be good.

[@madhavbhatia4692]

you did justice with last one

[@wave1401]

Yes Hippyo, definitely want a whole vid just on switches!

[@MercyCEO]

Sense75 Gang was here. It's a dream keyboard after modding, and the mods are super cheap!

[@greenpumafilms7710]

I think another good keyboard to consider is the Keychron K series. I have a K4, a 96% keyboard and it has done me well ever sense I bought it. I intended on buying new switches and keycaps later down the road, but the stock Gateron Red switches sound and feel very good. It also comes in an aluminum frame, which is a plus.

[@empathy_ggs]

I just got my Zoom TKL today.... 7 months after purchasing, when they said it'd be shipped in 4 months. Now, this isn't uncommon in the keyboard enthusiast space buuuut I do think it is a joke regardless, that a company can promise one thing, and deliver another w/o criticism. All things considered, the board is FANTASTIC, I love it even with the only couple of hours since receiving it. Meletrix is no joke, and I am really going to love this board.

[@LUNCHWARS]

Dude! At 4:04 the wood keyboard had standard galactic alphabet on it. I NEED

NUPHY Field75 - THE epicness in terms of quality and funkiest design

[@raizerleaf]

Me sitting here watching with my Keychron Q1 I bought 2 years ago happy to know I still got a decent board for someone whos a keyboard noob, after years of "gaming" keyboards.

[@ToyKeeper]

*Requirements:* Hotswap, QMK, 65% to 75% sized ANSI layout, knob. *Nice to have:* RGB, low-ish profile, lightweight, macro column on left (if smaller than 75%), programmable dipswitch, split space bar, split backspace, quiet, small touchpad under space bar. *Current solutions:* Keychron V1 or Q65. *Switches:* Durock T1 or T1 Silent "Shrimp". (or TTC Silent Bluish White, Boba U4 62G, maybe Akko Lavender or Jelly Purple pre-lubed) (i.e. tactile switches with a Topre-like or scissor-switch-like feel) *Caps:* DSA or MT3 or AF SA or similar profiles, spherical tops instead of cylindrical, big centered labels, ideally made of PBT. (just in case my recommendations are useful to anyone)

[@theegamer8401]

hey i know its been a while. Ive been looking into getting a keyboard. I really want it to sound kinda creamy i guess... Ive got like 130$ to work with. Im not really sure if this is possible any way you can help?

[@ToyKeeper]

@@theegamer8401 I don't know what it means to sound creamy. I build for feel and function, not sound.

[@theegamer8401]

@@ToyKeeper oh okay

[@trackdayadventures]

Thank you for the info. After researching for days I found your video. Almost made a mistake and bought something else. Got the V1 and I'm very happy 😊

[@superdahoho]

of course I find this video right after I ordered mine

[@Ghostinsara]

1:42 damn even stock sounds soo nice

[@dylanshackelton845]

So I have the GMMK2 and that's my main baby. That is the one that stays hooked up to my desktop all the time. But lately, I've been buying and upgrading keyboards that I can bring to work and use with our shitty work laptop that I absolutely hate typing on. It started with a k6. I put techee sapphire switches in it (after I lubed them), and replaced the keycaps. Surprisingly good after spending about $110 total between buying and moding. Next, I got an Epomaker TH66, which I honestly liked right out of the box. I also bought a Womier S-K71 which was another one that was really good out of the box. And then most recently a RK61. That one needs a little upgrading but I haven't started yet.

[@nessknows.]

I just want a list of the most buttery sounding keyboards right out of the box.

[@markridlen4380]

Skyloong GK61 Pro DS is an interesting budget choice. It's got options... you can go with dual spacebar or single spacebar. You get an optional stepped escape key. The stabs are really nice and don't require any tuning. It's got north facing RGB (good for shine through "gamer" keycaps). It's got QMK/VIA. It's a GH60 compatible PCB, so you can upgrade the case. $48 prebuilt.

[@dragoslavstojadinovic6840]

The one that i really like, and just got is the EpoMaker Th66 Pro with their flamingo switches, and man does it sound awesome right out of the box, for 90 euros, it is super good

[@TrollHunterxXx]

I love my Logitech mx keys … one day I will get a keychron because of the info in this channel 😊

[@ghost_of_m403]

No keyboards from EPOMaker, Skyloong, Royal Kludge or Red Dragon, the typical budget choices ... still an interesting list, thanks for sharing.

[@driveblaze]

yes please switches too would be a fun one to cover

[@dolphod7031]

Howdy Hey @Hipyo Tech, keyboards are preference BUT, please help people decide, people want to spend the less amount of money and get the most amount of quality, that's it. You can do it. Let's say: - The one plug&play - The one to DIY - The one cheapest, at the middle, and expensive.

[@MarkRidlen]

I have been appreciating your videos, and it has been really insightful on what to look for. However, your price points are all over the place. What would be more helpful to me as a consumer would be to be more specific with your price point, especially in the budget category, and the price point should include total build cost. Like if you're making a build with a $20 keyboard with $20 keycaps and $10 of dampening materials, it should be compared with $50 keyboards. So maybe do a comparison on $80-90 keyboards and give pros and cons of each. Because basically comparing an $80 product with a $200 product isn't even fair. Or maybe do a video that compares different price points like $0-50, $50-80, $80-100, $100-150, $150-250, and explain what corners are cut on the cheaper products, or maybe why the more expensive products are not worth the additional cost in some cases.

[@JosieBobaGames]

I got the dust silver for Christmas in a different color but still the model I absolutely love it and I love your videos

[@matthewviglucci7003]

Yall, the Morandi switches are no joke, they are endgame quality right of of the box

[@kellymcminn2689]

i bought the Womier WK61 and i love it! so thank you , cause your the reason i got it.

[@robins7357]

As someone in the EU I can at least give you my reason for a GMMK Pro: It's available over here without paying 30-50 bucks in shipping and there is an ISO option. I personally also like ANSI keyboards because you tend to have more keycap sets to choose from with ANSI, but I get why people (at least over here) like the GMMK Pro, even if the price to performance ratio is not the best :)

[@innovativeadvertising6463]

Hey there, thanks for joining the discussion! I actually recently came across the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule, and I must say, it's a game-changer for keeping your desktop spotless. The powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities make a significant difference. Plus, it's compact and versatile, perfect for cleaning your car's interior as well. Definitely worth considering for anyone looking to optimize their cleaning routine!

[@LeP009]

The Monsgeek M1 is as good or better in every way for less than 150€. There really isn't any reason to buy the gmmk pro.

[@FreddyGabriel]

Keyboards are a headache. Too much modding and the base keyboards are not worth it anymore. I've been using a ducky one 2 mini and haven't looked back. Anything I need to open up and mod just doesn't seem right. These companies should come with modding option so you don't have to do it. I've been looking for a thocky style keyboard but everything requires modding and I'm not up for it.

[@sarahmiles2906]

Okay first off, you have been the most engaging out of all the keyboard videos I have found on KZbin. I haven't viewed all your videos, but I'm hoping you may be able to point me in a more specific direction for my query. Short story, I have small hands and find keyboards a stretch when typing. The main keys I use in my job are Tab, shift, control, alt, arrows, number pad and f-keys. I recently received a new keyboard at work and hate it. It has dropped my productivity quite a bit. That's when I found out not all keyboards are the same. Work won't buy me what, and I don't know what I want. Help! please! With sugar on top!

[@apresskidougal]

This is the video that we all need.

[@avicko1337]

I just got mine Dark Project 87 Night Sky and im so happy with it really good keyboard for just 50$

[@sandervanleth8518]

I still don't know much about how to differentiate good keeb sounds from bad keeb sounds but I do know my eyes roll to the back of my head if I hear something particularly good XD Maybe I'm less sensitive to the "bad" sounds? idk.

[@seybey6143]

I just wish there were more Nordic layout keycaps.. It's a bummer not being able to get more than a few custom sets..

[@Dreamlink91]

i swapped some but say what you want, the best keyboard i ever had was Razer Black Widow, i had it for 8 years and i didnt swap it with a new one because it got broken on its own but because i spilled tea on it..

[@maxmouse3]

I love the keychron (and wooting) for their good software. VIA out of the box is great. Macro gang. Also, good to know, Wooting has a full size version. Only thing I'll disagree is that wooting is not smooth, it's very smooth, it's literally contactless. I do agree that the sound is not great. Great video overall :)

[@cybercoyotes]

That E-YOOSO keyboard at the end is awesome. I'm ganna go to that video and follow along, Thanks!

[@DerrickRG91]

E-YOOSO Z-19 is one of my favorites.
