  • i think budget companies should market it like “[base price for purely the board] to [price for a fully kitted out board] (excluding whatever it doesn’t come with)”

  • Looks like a cool board. I really like the option to try different mounting styles as well as being able to pick between a rotary knob or a badge. Soldering isn’t my thing so that $99 price is already $120 for a barebone kit without any stabilizers. Throw in stabs, keycaps, and switches, I feel like it will start to get out of budget for most folks.

  • While I am probably gonna take part in the group buy I think it's disingenuous to call this a $99 from MKC. At minimum you want the hotswap board which is already $20 more. Then we have stabs, keycaps, and switches and a nice cable and it's probably easily over $200. Still, it's a very nice board with great features and lots of options and am looking forward to it!

I still use it xD It’s just nice to see how your channel has grown and that you are still taking your time reading almost every comment and like them, just like 3 years ago. Keep it up!

  • Its the same thing as all these GB boards. It's hilarious how KZheadrs quote prices for things like the Zoom keyboards that are $50 below even the lowest price on the website. Plus another $50 for even the most basic config that anyone is going to get. Plus switches, keycaps, etc. It's not a "$150 keyboard". It's a $300 keyboard.

  • I love ur videos and also, can I suggest a review for a really good budget keyboard. It's called the Klim Shift. It's a 65% with 2.4g, bluetooth and usb type c. It has 19 modes of rgb and its hot swap. U get a basic plastic keycap puller as well as a plastic switch puller. And, as a massive bonus, you get a full set of white keycaps so you can have white or black keycaps, or even a mix! I really hope you review this. Thank You!

  • I definitely would have preferred if this was marketed more to not focus on that $99 price tag. The fact that the pricing is already super low for a budget custom is already good enough. But since the initial IC and word of mouth put focus on that $99 price, when they finally released final pricing on every config, people were somewhat disappointed. Realistically speaking, a good chunk of people wanting to buy this, would opt for the hotswap PCB over the solder one... so the $99 expectation already goes out the window.

    • From what I’ve seen so far mode has the superior and more unique aesthetic as well as zero need for foam. If you want something close to the qk75 then get this one but if you want a more higher end keyboard the mode keyboards are the better pick.

Also before gamingkeyboards those things used to cost like 15$, the cases are milled i assume and everything else laser cut why is it so expensive?!?!

  • Oof. Both prices are true though. Since only the hotswap set starts at $123 I think it makes sense to grab people at the 123 pricing because a custom hotswap at 123 is still decent. That way when you open the page and see the $99 keyboard, temptation strikes 😈 and you now have a cheaper option with customization access. Muahhahahaha!!

  • Question to the people here in the comment section. Don't be old and lazy and just reply. Do you cover up your keyboard against dust and stuff? Function wise it shouldn't matter, but your keyboard (especially the back plate) does remain clean from dust longer. The problem is that it looks kinda lame to cover it with a piece of cloth or something. My PC setup is part of my interior, so the look matters. What do you guys do?

  • Hello Switch and click, Im writing this to every keyboard youtuber that had experience in customs and I need help. I hate my keychronq2 so much that I eanr to sell it anf buy a new board. It sounds so metallic and light. Even with thick pbt keycaps, tape mod and foam I cant make it sound so thocky. i spent 300$ on it and I am very disappointed. I have been thinking about akko mod007PC, MongeekM1 or Keychron V1 but I am scared that they might sound as awful as my q2, even with mods. Ive watched MongeekM1 videos and many other ones and only hear more clacky builds but im looking for thock. Budget may go up to 200$ so mid range budget. Also want south facing and that is avaiable to customizablr souns from clacky to thocky sounds. Really need help or suggestions or some discussions about this cause I have been thinking about this a long time.
