THIS is the 60% Keyboard you've been waiting for. BAKENEKO by CannonKeys. THE $130 Singa Unikorn!

[@zerrano]

its funny how most budget entry boards have begun to sound better than most mid tier boards

[@cognition26]

Right this, mga standard, and the kbd67 lite sound like 300-400 dollar boards.

[@jedijunia563]

The greater the demand for good entry boards, the better the engineering and production quality of them. It’s a wonderful thing to see the hobby for sure

[@gwu08]

In addition, I feel like a handful of people don't want to admit that these entries are almost on par with mid-high tier boards, just because they're labelled as "entry-level".

[@erikvasauez9361]

Idunno bout that, they sound decent or good like this one sounded really good especially for what it is, but it’s not to say the price is what it is for a reason, budget boards are great and it’s nice to see them getting waaaaaaaaaay better with better mounting styles (vs just top/tray mount) but they still have a way to go before they’re engineered as nicely as mid tier boards. But at this rate I’m excited to see how far they can make these budget options go. Maybe it’ll push higher end boards to really step it up or their products will become more of a niche item than they already are

[@micorogers5344]

@@gwu08 Ehhh, sound is not the only thing that makes a mid-high tier boards, most of them are premium because of the aesthetics, QA, the anodization finish, thea dded flair (aka internal and external weights that you dont really see), and rarity. At those price points, people are buying them not for the "perceived" performance only but more so on the the artisinal quality of the product. Having good entry level is good for the hobby but I wont go on about and say that these are "on par" with those boards because at the mid-to-high end of this hobby, people are basically collecting and flexing endgames.

It does right?! So crazy for an entry board! I still have massive envy for the Vega I missed!

[@user-kz9rz8ui1c]

Can you review the BM65RGB. Similar to the NK65 but 35$ cheaper, North facing leds, and screw in stabs.

[@Keybored]

Interesting! I'll look this up!

[@1-1ryan]

SHEEEEEESH

[@Keybored]

:) hope the video was enjoyable!

[@AMC08]

what was the first keyboard you showed

[@stripedtee]

great vid! idk why i waited so long to checkout and took an L on white :( but i did snag the aqua... definitely feel like my pbt islander will go really well with it

[@Keybored]

That'll be a great combo! Hope it turns out great!

[@quickaswink]

It looks like an amazing board and the combination with the peaches and cream keycaps they offer it looks like a great deal. But damn, the 65 USD shipping is kind of steep

[@Keybored]

Wow that is high shipping! Where to?! But it is a great board! Doesn't sound and feel like a $130 for sure!

[@quickaswink]

@@Keyboredto the Netherlands, im still considering it, it looks and sounds amazing!

[@ethanpod8139]

Just bought a lavender one!

[@Keybored]

It's a great keyboard!

[@ethanpod8139]

@@Keybored I’m so glad I bought lavender, cause epbt milky and purple!

[@erikvasauez9361]

Dang this thing sounds good, for $130 that’s hard to pass up. Forget a ducky one2 or the crappy novelkeys nk65, this thing sounds great. If it came with a type of weight it would be even sweeter but still. Might get one just to build another little 60%, dont need it by any means but i like it

[@Keybored]

Hi Erik! Im going to try adding in the butyl liner in here and see how it goes. That stuff is heavier and adds more heft and does a great job of absorbing reverb. But man this thing for $130 sounds so good

[@erikvasauez9361]

@@Keybored Gotta keep us posted on how that turns out, i'm not too keen on adding sorbothane or shelf liners to my keebs, if I don't have foam I like making a custom case mold out of silicone since as I've been able to get decent results from it but yeah no this thing really does sound good for being $130. This easily beats most of the stuff in it's pricing range except maybe the Ikki68 Aurora but even those aren't full alumn boards so this is actually really cool. I own a lot of boards and tend to lean more towards mid to high end boards but it's mainly due to them having intricate or more sophisticated layout/mounting types but this little guy has peaked my interest for sure, plus it's cheap so I look forward to trying it out & maybe adding a wilba weirdflex pcb in it for added flexibility.

[@ProStylePancake]

Id buy this if it had rgb but the look im going for requires rgb :(. Getting a kemove shadow dk61 instead

[@jordan3524]

I have a kemove snowfox 61, and going for this with milky yellows, I hope I'm taking the right decision):

[@Keybored]

You won't be disappointed!

[@TheSparkxplug]

Nice video, what is the keyboard stand please?

[@Keybored]

Hi Sparkplugz! The stand is actually a tablet stand from ikea lol

[@Smugify]

you should check out akko switches they have rlly good budget clean sounding switches

[@Keybored]

Haha funny you mention that! I recently received the akko neons and am featuring it on a video coming out this week! For the price, the quality of these are great! And interestingly enough... They're cherry profile but don't really interfere with gateron yellows in North facing configuration...

[@eraserheadSH]

@@Keybored yeah I noticed that too. akko keycaps are actually amazing. the only gripes I have with them is the text only mods, other that that the quality is through the roof for the price.

[@ertyu8574]

suddenly there are so many options. love the vid.

[@Keybored]

Yup! I love the selections these days! And so many different types and styles too! Thank you!

[@RED-xi7bp]

can you do more switch variations on this board?

[@Keybored]

Sure! Maybe I can do a short. What are you interested in?

[@hrolvnir]

CannonKeys just announced on IG that they're going to restock this tomorrow (6/7) at 11 EST =]

[@Keybored]

Finally! But I think it's all sold out again!? I hope they make a larger batch next time!

[@kennyjohnson26]

Hey Keybored, I want to build this bakenenko and i had a question about how to dampen the board. I see that you used zip-in-fit in this video, but I also saw that you said polyfill would be better for the o-ring mounting style in your freebird tkl video. So I was wondering whether or not you ended up using zip-in-fit and the polyfill or just the polyfill by itself?

[@Keybored]

I took the zip n fit out and replaced it with polyfill

[@kennyjohnson26]
