Would you want this keyboard on your laptop?

[@b0ol_18]

yes?

[@c1bdc867]

very nice spring reverb

[@diktea]

Yups I was oddly liking it

[@marioman971]

The whole idea of this thing almost reminds me of a buckling spring switch just... heavily modified and backwards lol. Sounds a bit like one too and that's neat

[@Draxxuzownzu]

Coincidentally I've only just recognized ping noise from my mechanical keyboard from one specific key a week ago, and I actually hate it so much, then I read that to fix the ping issue you have to essentially tear apart your whole keyboard to lube the spring of that one specific key, and that made me hate it even more lol

[@markmitra6671]

Woooooow, it sounds........springy.

[@vinayakjadhav1719]

Total video length 6.5 minutes. Dave explains that keyboard for 6 minutes and other things in 0.5 minute. Lol I loved that.

[@stevenmartell2289]

Everything else is more of the same

[@Buran01]

The fun thing is that the membrane version is better, and you save 100 bucks.

[@thebasketballhistorian3291]

Dave laughed at "spring doing its thing". I laughed at "people spend hours lubing".

As one of those people who spent that time and money putting together my keyboard, that ping makes me want to cry. Half of the appeal of typing on a mechanical is the sound.

[@OhSoTiredMan]

The best part of building a keyboard is that after you finish it you get to admire your work. Also pressing the switches

[@Nersius]

As a non-Topre rubber pleb: I only noticed the ping during the piano gfedcbagfedcba section.

[@AirisuSG]

That ping sound is pretty annoying while you were typing but I am glad you mentioned it for everyone. I hope they fix this switch design, because that looks like a pretty cool laptop :D

[@Rowrin]

My absolute favorite laptop keyboard is actually from an old as dirt Sony Vaio PCG-GR370 from like 2001 or 2002. I got it off ebay for like $75-100 back in 2012 or so when I just wanted something cheap to install linux on for CS projects in college. It just has amazingly snappy switches for whatever reason, it feels like typing on a low profile mechanical keyboard. I've kept that thing around just because I like the keyboard so much.

[@poeticsilence047]

That darker grey gunmetal color the key deck got from the lights off should be a color choice.

[@Buran01]

Sadly almost impossible to order. And is hard to understand due they only make two colors, why is one almost every month out of stock? Have been checking their web for months...

[@poeticsilence047]

@@Buran01 sucks man. I'm sure too just like GPUs they are getting bought to be resold at a higher price.

[@Buran01]

@@poeticsilence047 I think that is more because they made some screens (like the 4K) in white only and dark grey looks better so the demand is higher. Here also retired the last month the 144 Hz display (which I think was the best combo with the RTX 3070) so they only have now 300 Hz or 4K x 60 Hz. I think that 144 Hz was perfect for the 3070 because it can move modern games over 100 fps but not near 300 (and the 144 Hz is 15% more brigth) and the 4k is lame due the card will struggle with that res and 4k in 15" means tiny fonts. A shame because to me is the best gaming laptop; I'm on the verge to buy but ~2500 € in a model which comes in my not first choice of color feels bad. I understand the sacrifice of AMD CPU due politics, but man, at least give us our desired color, Dell!

[@bobafetts]

Who put their volume up come on be honest....?

[@mysterystation3551]

It was sooooo satisfying amiright

[@gennarozanfardino854]

I use the m17 as company laptop and it's already a great machine, can't even imagine how this keyboard can improve the one it has but I hope to try it

[@robinnoren7208]

They made fan noise quieter over the years but now they’ve found a new way to disturb the people around you...

[@satyamgupta2182]

😂😂

[@samuelhuang7769]

Happy to see such humor of Dave2D

[@Tungstenio80]

I have a MSI GT75 Titan and the mechanical keyboard from Steelseries is quite an awesome mechanical keyboard for a laptop. I think i remember you reviewing and liking it.

[@sasquatchcrew]

I think it adds a little value to the laptop long term maybe. IDK if the ringing would get to me... For me, what angered me the most with my last keyboard, was the CLICK-POP from the actual key bottoming out. I lubed that keyboard and put O-Rings on it. IT WAS AWESOME. Then I gave it away the next day to a friend.

[@Fletchman1313]

That ping is a showstopper for me. None of my keyboards do this, including the one mechanical laptop I have.

[@brianbongbk]

When he sweeps that keyboard, it’s like an M1 Garand reload

[@georgepapidas181]

Since you had the laptop, it would be nice if you could talk a little bit more about the rest of the unit. Like, is the screen good, what I/O does it have, how much battery life did you get ? I mean, even if this was the best keyboard ever created, we still would appreciate a minute or two for the rest of the machine. Nice video though :)

[@euphorium2244]

Hey Dave, thanks for the great videos. Could you make a video about the Thunderobot 911 plus (the one with RTX 3060)? It would be really nice if you make one because I couldn't find any review in English about this Laptop on KZbin.

[@jakethewoz]

It has some serious ping, but I'm so excited for this laptop! I hope they continue to improve this, and start making this an option for a lot of brands. In ten years, we may look at this video and laugh at how loud these 'original' switches were.

[@SweBeach2023]

Maybe it's just me growing up with a Model M, but I kind of like the sound. Gives it a very mechanical feel.

[@danielwoods7325]

Controversial opinion: I find that metallic ring really satisfying. Also good to know that all Apple's dreadful butterfly switches needed was a spring lol.

[@atherasia]

"Ping is harmless, it wont kill you." The ping: 3:30

[@silentKeys20]

That ping can literally kill me using them long term.

[@Elfaia]

3:22 Damn that's delicious. Also reminds me of salsa music. The washboard scratch thingy.

[@YTSansir]

How can anyone dislike Dave's videos. I bet it's just people angry at the world. I don't even care about laptops and I watch the videos and leave a like.

[@Gaetano.94]

I have the M17 R4 with Per Key RGB. Don't have the mechanical one, but I tried both and prefer the regular membrane. It's actually amazing.

[@eduardocchipinti1493]

Seems very similar to the Apple butterfly keyboard, hope it’s not as problematic as these

[@gamil867]

3:55 need someone to clip it And make a meme out of it 📳🎶

Thanks for the in-depth on the keyboard, great rhymes.

DAVE is all SWAG in this video. Damn effortless

[@SH4LL0WS]

Throwback to the original setup, F

[@krispyywombat7382]

So what I'm seeing is it's Apple's butterfly design, but not forced into .00001mm of space and made with parts so close together that dust will destroy it This is neat as hell

[@AutumnOnFire]

I'm surprised that people don't like the ping noise. Sounds like an M1 Garand reloading. I guess I could understand that being annoying after time though.

[@Sachin-xy2my]

you dont know how long im waiting for this!

[@jamescarter4964]

The Keyboard springs act like a suspension of a car, But it could be replaced with pressure built hydrologic system but it should be way smaller to remove the RING

[@saltypepesugar]

Wondering if these switches can be purchased to build diy keyboards. Really want to try it.

[@Doofindork]

unless they put some type of Teflon bushing at the hinge, I'd be worried about squeeky keys. Regardless, it's a cool design.

[@nvpg666]

I love the ping. I want something that makes that kind of ping that I can have on my in my pocket. It just is so satisfying. (I have played way too many games with M1 Garands and hearing that ping meant: get to cover and reload, which created a reflex that saved my ass so many times.) I still don't know if I wanted in a laptop that I would use at school

[@mhnovan]

this video just can't get out my reccomendation, so i finally decide to watch it.

[@chessclinic]

I love the sound of that keyboard!

[@hussainzain5913]

The sound.. I think it's actually cool 😂

[@Talwyn_Wize]

Keys today are too flat and slippery, especially gaming machines. I miss the old ones that actually gave you some traction, with a dip/grove in the middle of each key. Like the old 2012 Macbook Pro, which was wonderful. Though, the best one I've tried so far, out of hundreds of keyboards, is my current Lenovo Carbon's.

[@EonityLuna]

The switches kind of reminds me of Apple’s doomed Butterfly Switch, but with a spring connecting the “flaps”. Not sure if these would suffer the same problems as those Butterfly switches…

I just hope they can now make a linear version although I don’t know how easy it would be the implement as you would need 2 skus of the laptop for linear and tactile.

[@sudhanshupandey6361]

on point review

[@QMaverick1]

Interesting take for you: I have an m17 r4 without the mechanical keyboard (bought before available), and it's easily the best laptop keyboard I've ever typed on. I'd be very interested to see how the mechanical version compares to the non-mechanical to see if the cost is worth it. Sounds like a comparison video to me! :-) Also, my Cyberpunk numbers aren't that high, but I have RT on Ultra with DLSS set to quality . . . I'm just wondering what your settings are, since I have essentially the same system (i7 + 3080).
