Planning of getting Filco Majestouch 2 MX Browns.

1 month into my Logitech G510, I some how miss the feeling of Mechanical Keyboards, thanks to my previous Ducky Shine MX Red.

The keys on Filco are laser printed right? Like the 6Gv2?

Filco legends are pad printed and the covered with a clear coating, as for steelseries, just pad printing which can be worn off within days.

I see. Was pretty worried about it fading. Thanks for the clarification. biggrin.gif

Why you went back to rubber domes?

No idea. Probably thought I dont really need a mechanical keyboard, but it turned out wrong. tongue.gif

Are there any Corsair K60 users out there? The price of the K60 is pretty tempting, the K90 has too many macro keys that I don't really need.

does the LED lights on Ducky shine spoil easily?

It depends on how you treat it. If you are talking about normal usage, then no. Unless you remove the key caps and fiddle with the bulb tongue.gif

Did you know that corsair K60 and K90 are not full mechanical keyboard?  hmm.gif  means some of the keys are still using rubber dome switches... especially their whole top ESC row.  shocking.gif

Human10 also pointed out it's selling around USD80.. true story bro, Corsair K60 and K90 is way overpriced in Malaysia. Distributors are playing games here, not all those tax or whatsoever. smile.gif

conclusion?
1. not full mechanical (hybrid? this is bad hybrid IMO)
2. pricey (almost the same price range as other mechanical keyboard such as leopold or ducky? see option 1)
*
Quite true. Although the design is pretty thou.

Shall get the Filco Majestouch 2 instead. Already tried MX Black and Red, now going for brown biggrin.gif

Can try GS, saw a couple of Ducky Shines for sale. G2 however, don't see anyone selling it at the moment.


QUOTE(storm88 @ Jun 6 2012, 12:12 PM)
er.... Green LED is being EOL by Ducky already
Btw, sorry for late response about the PBT question,

Yes, Ducky has EOLed the 9008G2 series, incl the PBT edition.
But they will release another PBT edition base on 9008G2 Pro

The G2 Pro is called G3? Priced around RM350+- right?

Finally received my Ducky 9008G2 PBT from heavyarm rclxms.gif

Back to mech keyboards after 1 month.

The feeling of Brown switch is wub.gif Feels like Red but with a tactile feeling. Only thing is missing is a wrist rest, might look for those Gel ones instead.

omg so jealous..too bad its discontinued sad.gif

whats the diff between black and red switches?
*
Black switches are way harder than Red switches. IMO, you cannot really feel that you are pressing the keys with Red switch. Black switch requires more force than Red.

I don't think cheap is the correct term to use on any mechanical keyboards. I am sure you meant 'affordable' tongue.gif

Hmm, Steelseries will be launching a MX Red version for the 6Gv2 which will be priced at 429. Without the bling factor as expected.

wanna to ask

some dealer ask me why i dont bring in Zowie.
Between Zowie and Ducky, will Zowie is better in term of quality?

Any body own a Zowie now?
*
Zowie Gear is not really popular here in Malaysia, they've sponsored TeamLZ in tournaments but still unable to compete with brands like Steelseries and Razer, probably due to brand recognition. But the comparison between Zowie Gear and Ducky is always based on own personal opinions. In fact, Zowie has more products than Ducky, hard to tell which one they are actually focusing on. Ducky specializes in mech keyboards only right? icon_rolleyes.gif
