Just to be clear, I showed the Crrsair caps in the vid as an example of brands, but they don't fit the Apex.

[@SwatRocks_BeCalm]

The :O factor is missing in corsair

[@BP-ve2ow]

So can you list some Double shot pbt keycaps that aren't puddings please.

[@OntarioGuy430]

Question - I know I am late. You say the Corsair keycaps don't fit the Apex - what about them doesn't fit? I was about to order some pink Corsair caps for my Apex TKL, but figured I would watch this video again and saw this comment. Will specific keys not fit or just not fit in general?

[@ouchtor]

@@OntarioGuy430 If you just look at when he compares them at 4:20, you can see that the Corsair keycaps are much thicker, which makes them bigger.

[@lucutes2936]

Crrrrrr

[@wotxvii]

I respect the fact that steelseries is willing to include the other companies names with their compatible products/keyboards

[@TonytheContemporaryPhilosopher]

Yes exactly

[@Johannes391]

Can i put those keycaps on my logitech g502 keyboard?

[@celzolsen8988]

why wouldn't they? it means people who don't have steelseries keyboards can buy their products too (which makes them more money)

[@lucutes2936]

ye

[@monsieurbekri]

Sure helped with my Roccat Vulcan 122 AIMO (except for the Spacebar and somewhat the right shift key)

[@HooksHollands]

Appreciate seeing these keycaps in action, as I was on the fence about buying them. Just snagged a black set for my SS Apex 7 board! 🧡💛💚

I got an email from SteelSeries about these keycaps yesterday and I thought "Techne will make a video on these soon." you're fast with it! Lol I love it 😁

[@AlexaRex]

I'm fixing up my old K70 Silver, so it's pretty sweet that they add some extra keys so I can fit them on this old keyboard. Those letters on it look really nice. Big, but nice, not some weird font on there. I like these a lot.

[@petem7246]

Techne always has the nices things i love coming to his videos to see what i cant have but he truely deserves it ♥️🙌🏽

[@fubuwarrior047]

me being a steel series fan boy wanted these for my apex pro but was on the fence about them, but after seeing your video im definitely about to get a set now thanks for the review

So cool that you not only reviewed the prismcaps, but that you compared them to many others, too! thank you!

[@KyleTP]

Lol that's very unusual to see a company advertising keyboards from competing brands on the side of the box. Anyway, glad we finally have some officially compatible keycaps for the Apex Pro; I had tried Corsair's new PBT keycaps but they kept getting stuck on those LEDs, so I'll have to try these. I do wish they came in a plastic tray instead of a vacuum sealed bag so the replaced keycaps could be neatly repackaged, but that's a minor gripe.

[@Super_papiko]

It is clear as day that this is a good KZbin video. Really helped me decide on what I should get for my new keyboard

[@Super_papiko]

@@Doctor0Who i got the steelseries apex pro and i just got the hyper X keycaps, the prism ones were out of stock where i live

[@danioliveira01_]

Dude... I think I'm in love with those keycaps. I want them SO badly!

[@gttrmgc3284]

The font on the PrismCaps looks SO much better than any other pudding keycap I've seen. The HKGaming and even HyperX have this janky looking broken up font. Steelseries' caps look vibrant and clean because of it.

[@particulate641]

Ordered mine as soon as I got the email from Steelseries, should be in tomorrow. I was hoping you'd done a video on them.

[@aaronmyrie]

The second light you turned off made everything look dopeee

[@RyanAllen-to2no]

you should have over 1 MILLION subs (SO UNDERATED)

[@unalloyedbee8691]

I might actually pick these up for my blackwidow elite

[@Kilrathal]

Finally!!!! Some proper pbt pudding keycaps that not only have non standard bottom row but have a uk layout also!

[@DiViNiTY1337]

Just ordered a set of the white ones for my ZSA Moonlander that's arriving soon thanks to the vaporwave-vibes shot at 7:57. Damn do they look good!

[@JVIoneyman]

I have the Ducky pudding caps on my Apex pro and I had to Dremel out the inside of a few keys so they fit the over the LEDs. Looks like these come from the same factory, the Duckys have the same little dimples. I prefer the Ducky font, but these are nice too. Better than having to use the Dremel.

[@MrM45ter]

Yeeesssss! Someone finally made DS PBT caps with Nordic layout!

[@hwcollector7237]

These are AWESOME! Gotta get them by the end of the year! I currently have the HyperX ones but these seem to have a nicer font 🤔

[@Cortxx]

Not worth of u already got pudding hyperx

[@EverybodySucks]

Thanks bro, I'll consider buying some.

[@pekkause]

Finally some Double Shot PBT Pudding keycaps for a Nordic layout!! In White too 👀 HyperX was late to the party Might just buy these if I find them from sale

[@therevanchist1123]

Pretty sweet they fit the k63, I just picked up a K63 SE/ Iron Claw/ and lap board for $100 lightly used (really clean) for my couch set up. Did I say I like large mice 😅 Btw learned something new today, I never knew people flipped their space bar.

[@Link9164]

With the price of the apex pro, you'd think those prismcaps would be standard.

[@CMDR.Useless]

I really hope SteelSeries is going to make non-pudding PBT keycaps. Personally I'm not a fan of an overdose of RGB, so normal PBT keycaps with shinethrough would be awesome.

[@Zayel00]

I hope this as well. I own an Apex Pro myself and noticed that some of these prismcaps miss certain descriptors, such as the M1-M6 or sub-functionalities (brightness up - lower, etc) on the F9-F12 caps.

[@MIchaelSybi]

Same here, I think it's too much of the side spill lighting. I had hyperx alloy core, and it was so bright and didn't make much sense, as one wants to see the symbols and not extra spill

[@shaunross2266]

Hey Techne! Have been a big fan of your page for quite abit. I wanna ask does these keycaps have those specific sized keycaps that fit the ducky one 2 sf?

I always hear people complaining about the stock key caps on the apex pro but I only just found out you can replace them and it's making my decision so much harder 🙃 Was weighing up this, the hot swappable rog strix or a ducky. Thanks for making the choice even tougher lol

[@fernandesrfm3378]

Have you tested the black keys too? Does the lighting look as good as the white ones? A black keyboard with white keys looks very ugly but the lighting is beautiful

[@cyberbogart]

you are a great reviewer

[@nhxt1506]

awesome video!!

[@biggsam117]

Awesome vid BTW Techne! Would these fit the Logitech 512 Carbon with the brown switches? Want to replace the logitech keycaps and go for these. If not, any recommendations? Really want pudding PBT keycaps.

[@SeezYT]

Also snagged the Apex Pro TKL, hopefully I won’t be disappointed 😅

[@royourbert8559]

imo they're good and the font is iconic, but $30 is really stretching it for all the other options we have

[@dragon_apex1.8]

Question. What key caps were you using before you put on the prism caps?

[@K-----]

Honestly, I really liked this video. It felt kind of random and like you were just dropping by for a second to talk tech. It definitely is a welcomed addition to my day to drag me away from my calculus studies.

[@TheTechne]

Lol, man I seriously did just slap this one together in an hr, lol

​@@TheTechne Could have fooled me! You went into AMAZING detail regarding the subtle differences of each brand & left no stone unturned. Legitimately A+ review content!

[@lobizonsereno]

Just bought my first ever Mechanical (optical) keyboard, an apex 9 tkl, and i bought a lot of different keycaps to customize it. I bought the black Gskill pudding keycaps as I wanted totaly clear pudding keycaps (and at this point I don't worry if they are abs). But talking with someone that have steelseries pudding keycaps, and to mix some of that keycaps with the ones I already have, I'm thinking about buy some black pudding keycaps of Steelseries...watching this video and see that it comes with a Steelseries logo keycap convince me.
