This video was filmed in November 2021. We got sick, our editor got sick, and we almost didn't publish it at all since it no longer fit our content style. Hope you enjoy it!
I did enjoy it definitely! The quiet screaming was lol
I loved it!
yeah, you said it'd come out January 8 and when it didn't I was like *W H A T*
If I was to build my own keyboard, would you recommend this same build lol? I'm looking for one I can make myself atm
It is still amazing I was waiting for new content and this was worth the wait
I always find it funny when keyboard youtubers do AliExpress challenges since this is the only viable way for me to have a custom mechanical keyboard LOL. I love the Akko switches.
Same I literally have the same build but with different keycaps and Akko rose reds instead
Standard stuff in Europe ahahahaha
@@tobymarol7329 after some time i had to give up ISO and now i'm daily driving ANSI keyboard - ANSI keycaps with ISO keyboard settings ahahahaha, budget hotswap ISO keyboard that fit my needs are practically inexistent, also there are only 2 budget/clone sets i know that offer ISO-IT keycaps (usually for more than half of the whole set's price lol) and i don't like them much so rip xd
@@TortelliniSRL at the moment im on an iso-de 65%, i guess there's about 4 keycap sets under 100€... Some time on i think i will swap to an ansi board and just put the missing letters on function keys, like fn+o for ö and so on. good think most pcbs support via by now :D
@@tobymarol7329 I also searched long and wide for ISO layout, but the issue was that it wouldn't have been a perfect fit either way because it is impossible to get a swiss layout anywhere. So I just settled for ANSI and even embraced the US Layout, although it is the US International layout which has the äüö characters on the right ALT + q, y and p. The hardest to get used to was actually the switched y and z button but as I mostly type in English anyway it's actually kind of nice. The special characters took a little getting used to but it's totally fine now. Added bonus: because I code and script a lot of stuff, having , \ etc buttons much more easily accessible than on ISO layouts, I really like that.
If anyone is wondering about this keyboard, it is the Gamakay LK 67 and it is a good barebone set for beginners.
Personally think the Tiger Lite is better(You can get the DIY kit on Divinikey which is cheaper but doesn’t come with switches or keycaps so it’s good if you’re planning to change some stuff)
i think it is the tm680
@@mats104 actually, it's the same design of the board maybe just the software is different
It is not good for beginners! I have one and it is great but it's a real pain modding and definitely not begginer level. It's a great board tho (cost me $100 aud
I literally have to use aliexpress because the bobagums i want arent in stock anywhere else lol
more videos like this pls
Thank you for publishing it despite everything! I enjoyed it very much! And the sound and look of your keyboard gave me goosebumps!!
5:09 Seeing you pry off the battery with scissors gives me anxiety lol.
i like this goofy and funny version of her
make a video on lubing membrane keyboard
2:54 Switch and Click: RIGHT NEXT TO CHINA! *points at indonesia while squashy lives in singapore*
Lol
I recently just got my first gmk kit after waiting for a year. Took me less than a day to switch back to the same kind of keycaps found in this video. Weirdly enough the AliExpress ones feel better quality, have nicer cleaner legends, and sound better. Only thing I don’t really like are the words instead of icons for the modifiers
I think my favorite part of your videos are the elevated voice that still is the same sound level
do a video checking out the mizar mz60 keyboard please!
I love my TOM680 (literally the same base board as you ended up with). Kinda crazy how cheap your bluetooth version was though. Similar build here too, except I went with the Rose Pinks instead of the Radiant Reds for switches.
squashy: from singapore switch & click: points at indonesia
Man but their culture is kinda popular and bali too its popular many people came to bali from other country's
Dont judge by they look man
Bruh ye agree thats sulawesi in indonesia
The good old lubricating grease lube for mechanical keyboard switch stem and oem
Video/stream idea jotoro themed keyboard : blade 65 in black, and akko black and gold JP asa profile
Great job on this one, I actually LOVE ❤ the colours. I recommended your channel to some people I know who wanna get to know mechanical keyboards.
Thank you so much!!
Keep up the fire content 🔥
the kfo68 is the TM680 btw
A new video, LET's GO!!!!!
My heart when squashy boy said “you are over estimating what I can do” 💔😭. I feel u
coincidence. my keyboard is exactly what you bought with the same switches, keycaps and case by accident lol
I love the lowercase yelling
love the energy
i should have made a flying keyboard
hi squashy
fr, they are best budget keyboard
Hi Squashy, glad to see you again!
are you backkkkkkkkkk, sus
foreshadowing?
I love the merch! I know what I’m gonna ask for valentines 😁 The Akko switches are nice. I got the rose reds and I love them. Actually, yesterday I spent my afternoon lubing, they are nice out of the box and I have been using them stock for about 6 months, but I wanted the best version and it is really nice. I also changed the tape mode my keyboard had because it smelled weird and I do use it Bluetooth often so I was afraid it might catch fire or something 😅
Better safe than sorry. I think there's a reason people remove the battery?
Ultra rare ponytail Betty!
My favorite thing about Betty's videos is the chaos.
I laughed like a loon on the lube item description although I'm familiar with those. I think they do this to improve the item's chances of showing in searches. Nice video btw! You're a cool person! 🙂
I think it’s more to do with auto translation from Chinese. You find some wild words in there sometimes “ghost wok” and I’m looking at a watch 😂
@@Stompehhh Haha! That's hilarious! 😂 The internet is wonderful!
2:54 squashy lives at singapore... and you pointed the arrow to indonesia. close enough i guess
Sulawesi Island haha
Bruh lol
western people when southeast asia:
I was like, wait.. Squashy boy lives in Sulawesi?
@@miekoyee yeah i also thought that squashy boy go from singapore tovlive in indonesia🗿
I love these videos
You both should have sent the other your keyboard before making a final video.
I've built about 4 of those board so far, it's been a customer favourite since I started building boards a few months ago
hi friend
Ah yes...the TM680. It's great after modding for its price.
betty has drip now with that switch and click sweatwr
Funny how you avoided the knockoff keycaps but bought a knockoff Gamakay L67 hahaha
cheap but good shows how hard work can go a long way
The amount of intense quiet screaming going on and the hype over a knob is lol!! But well done Betty, that was a cheap and high quality build...
Yeah, the hype over a knob is laugh out loud, totally makes sense.
Betty!? Are you are in bangladesh
Or India
@@safwaanibnjabirabdullah4637 no she lives in the United states
I'm sure I heard "Pissy Bee" at some point. Great vid
even a lot of the stuff on esty now-a-days is just ali express sellers putting a markup on etsy for the same products they sell on ali express for quite a bit less, and they still ship from china anyway.
0:20 Switch and Click: Give a complement on how squashy can make an epic keyboard from a bunch of random stuff. Squashy: lmao.
This is what always makes me wanna watch her videos she responds to her comments and her thumbnail attracts me always
Just a random guy in comments
@just a random guy in Comments e
@just a random guy in Comments æ
@just a random guy in Comments ooh cool fact
@just a random guy in Comments yed
0:54 lmao this girl i swear
Hi switch and click could you maybe upgrade a keyboard from akko i love your builds
What timing, I just received my Akko tester from AE! They're all amazing but now I want the expensive demons... Great vid as always
Amazing video.. I really love your vids keep doing the good work
Glad you enjoyed!
sure did
Gambol is still the unbeaten champion
I LIKE when you build KEYBOARDDDDD
Almost $40 for shipping? Hilarious! I guess it's much cheaper to send something from Aliexpress to Europe than USA because I have free shipping pretty often when ordering stuff to Poland.
i think it's the US's fault, shipping from/to US is horrendously expensive in my experience
@@aonodensetsu they also tax Chinese products like crazy
It might also be that she did express shipping. Otherwise shipping to the US actually isn’t that bad.
Squashy is BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love Akko Radiant Red
That was fun, glad I found your channel. I spent over $250 on a custom IBM M 101 keyboard in early 2021 and I would be thrilled if there was a way to convert to modern mechanical switches.
I thought they were a scam too... I really don't believe that anymore though. About half my caps and switches have come from them, and they've got some of the best sales around right now, stuff I've been eyeing for over a month is half price right now. Some stuff is over priced. Some of the most bad ass key cap sets I've got I got through them (only 1 in so far two more sets on the way)
I got the Gamakay LK67, really good value for a beginner keyboard.
5:10 NNOOOOOO DONT dO tHaT
How is their "cheap" keyboards sounding so much better than mine 😢
bruh mine is 120$ and this sounds better!
imma buy the merch Betty not because of the custom keyboard giveaway just because they look so cozy and good and I like the designing with them. C: :D
Thank you!
That blue k552 is so nice
Yesssirr i was waiting for a vid like this
what if i told you aliexpress is the 2nd best online marketting platform on turkey LOL
😳
😳
it sucks tho
😳😳😳😳😳
What beats it
I used the same board for my budget build... but paid $60. If I got the board for $34 then my build cost would have been 94$ (not counting lub and tools) and I upgraded the stabs. Gateron Milky Yellows. I paid $16.50 but they are like $17 right now. You only need 75 max. Durock Plate mount stabs to replace the poopy ones. Only $9 on RingerKeys. Upgraded the plastic knob for an AliExpress $2 aluminum knob thats twice as thicc. And went with Happy Planet caps from Drop, at the time were only $32... now $36.
How have you found the keyboard? I've been looking around for keyboard parts so I can build one myself
Can you do a review about the Akko 3098B jelly pinks? :>
The v1 of the TM680 even has Cherry Genuine Stab ;-; So good for the price
Your actually so genuinely happy and full of joy and your enthusiasm just lights up my day. Want you to know your videos are appreciated.
wow, thank you!
agree
hola :)
Wait what how is this first I don’t even have notis on I just saw it in my recommended
My keyboard is only from alliexpress as well. Im happy with my choices. Great video though as always.
11.11 being described as the Asian Black Friday cannot be more true! 💗
3:35 Switch and Cat (lol)
I built my own custom keyboard from Ali-Express and not gonna lie Ali-Express has good things to offer.
Yeah not to mention the shipping is much cheaper than if I bought it locally.
We all know its a good day when Switch and Click uploads...
Especially when squashy boy uploads his perspective 1 month before this
@@rubenmcq6583 lmao
I think Davie 504 and u should collab with each other because u both are so funny taking the content aside u both have same accent
Omg the brawl music
I don't mind this style at all. It's like ... how would things look like if Betty got one too many keyboards to do. 😂 Seriously, it gave me some good chuckles!
Hi Switch and Click!! Could you please do a video about your PC? Im trying to switch to PC from X-Box! If you could that would be amazing thank you!!!
literally just bought that drop deskmat
i like how u always quietly yell
I really want to get the merch bc I love keyboards and cats, but I can’t get anything till Easter. :( also I really want a custom keyboard but 1 it’s expensive 2 idk how to lube 3 put silicone or foam 4 or even take apart the case
Could you do something with the next time 75 kit?
bettys keyboard was basically gmmk pro knockoff but better for the cheapkeyboard
u should review a mouse like the finalmouse starlite phantom
I've been binge-watching videos from you and Squashy Boy for the last few weeks and this is the earliest I've been to any of your videos so far 😅
your camera laggin so hard
That made me feel the anger
and also lube u used for lubing switches is krytox lube (idk if its fake r not)
LETS GO RADIANT REDS ARAE MY FAV SWITCHES
Can u plz make a vid about the gamakay k61 please
"beginner keyboard" A keyboard is a keyboard.
Ah yes, *stuff wrapped in foam*
lol she said warm clothes for the winter and its almost summer. (btw I know its cuz everyone got sick)
I’m getting a keyboard but how do I use lubricant because I’m getting red switches
I ordered the TM680 from Aliexpress. At least 12 keys werent working on the PCB upon arrival
careful handling that battery with a scissor
YES I REMEMBER RECOMMENDING THIS IN A STREAM :D
You should have gotten the gmk67
Nice deskmat and roccat kone pro
When is the 2rd part from the video where you got a bunch of switches
7:21 Oh 😳😳😳😳
