For your knowledge, 6Gv2 is a mechanical Keyboard as well .

Do remember the warranty doesn't cover in Malaysia, so if anything happens to the keyboard. It will be a big problem. But so far, there's no one suffer any issue here, so i think it's good until now. Hope no people is unlucky enough

Still you can wait for Mechanical Keyboard to be available here. if you prefer to have warranty and easier to claim warranty from local stores and distributors.

sounds like riddle lol.

btw beebee if you are from subang/cyberjaya we can order together. doesnt really save on shipping tho.

Hello, guys, i need to collect information to list people that are interested in Leopold Keyboard FC300R which is Otaku version/Legendless(blank keycap)

These are available, and they could produce such keyboard. but would require special order. Do remember the price doesn't change. it's just that, if you want blank keycap, you have to specify.

Cyclone, count me in. But what's the price?

I'll announce by then, currently now, i still don't have much info for them.

I'd love to own one of the Otaku reds! I'd also be very interested if there's Otaku MX Blues/Browns as well.

Count me in. My hand itching to try otaku brown.

Is there a need to start a new thread for this, the leopolds?

It is counterintuitive, but them mods are sensitive towards these things

i just need normal 104 keys white on black KB...

Might use for gaming and typing/spamming...

Hi All,

How much a decent/entry level mech keyboard will cost?

rm200 +/-? and what brand?

thanks!


regards

Theres an ione scorpius with MX blues going for RM189 before shipping. Pretty cheap, but people cast doubts on the build quality. Otherwise theres that keyboard with double shot keycaps from taobao
Any cheaper and you have to look for ALPS switches, or see whoever has BS switches lying around in their houses.

wow... razer is that bad in mech keyboard?

iOne boards? heard some bad soldering issues of it :/

erm am not really a fan.. i just looking for something decent

may i know what's exactly the issue... bad soldering? key always stuck?


thanks again!

I would like to get brown switches on that one. But is it possible for me to get US letters for it? I don't think i will like otaku

So far my Razer BlackWidow's still doing good after alternating my Ducky-1008 MX Browns and BW for almost 3 months. It's not really that bad as everyone says. If you're into mechanicals for the first time and itching to get one NOW, I'd definitely recommend the BW because of the price/availability(warranty) and Cherry MX Blue switches.

Keyboards with Cherry MX Blue switches in my opinion is the best first mechanical keyboard to get as it really does feel different from conventional rubber dome keyboards. I can almost guarantee though, once you go mechanical you'll be itching for more. Then, that is the right time to get some MX Browns. I used to dislike it because it feels too soft/too little tactile feedback (almost mushy compared to Blues) but I'm growing more fond of it each day and I don't mind getting another keyboard with brown switches. I haven't tried Blacks yet but I think I wouldn't want to a keyboard with one, due to them being linear and having high spring rate. Theoretically it sounds like rubber dome but I'm sure that's not true.

So in conclusion I'd like to recommend MX Blue switches to everyone who's thinking of getting their first mechanical keyboard, irregardless of the clicky sound it makes which MIGHT annoy everyone around you because by then, you'd almost be certain to get more of these mechanical goodies! If you're feeling adventurous, you can go to global PCHOME and get your first one there. I'd recommend Ducky-1008,9008, or even the iOne m10 (MX Blue) for only RM194. I think they've largely fixed all the poor quality issues. Keep in mind though if you're using Paypal you have to pay extra 5% currency conversion cost and another RM30 on top of that for the shipping, so that's about RM234 shipped to your door. In 4 days. Freaking amazing.

oouch... poor braided cable :/
is it really necessary for a braided cable anyway?

I would say. Go for the BW, its not as bad as it sounds. Sure iphone has mentioned some flaws, but he is just a hater anyway. And most if not all of the problems are either DIY fixable or not really noticeable by the average user.

Added on March 29, 2011, 10:38 pmI like braided cables. Makes me feel that the cables last longer. Normal is like will break easily to me. My BWU cable doesnt look like that though.

hating is better than breaking
paying 300+ & breaking it? h3ll no

This Filco Red, is really not my keyboard. I think I'll keep using it for a few more weeks. Then probably change back to my BWU.
