LOL wut? The box for a 65% keyboard even larger than TKL?

Fixed.

3 out of my 5 keyboards I bought from Taobao, LOL...

If you insist on cheap, then I suggest you to go for brands like Keycool and some random China gaming brands.

Keycool is the more recommended one.

Their keyboard ranged from cheapest 300RMB (roughly RM160 b4 ship) to around 500RMB. Anything more than that, you might as well opt for locally available choices such as Rosewill or Quick Fire Rapid.

Not sure bout their latest quality.

But for their 1st Keycool (which I bought 2 years ago?), the built quality is really solid and nice enough (in fact the board still looks perfectly fine today). Just that they failed at small details part such as gaps problem.

Since then, heard that they fixed the gaps problem already, and almost in every reviews of their newer keyboards, the reviewers purposely stressed that they can't find gaps problem on it anymore, at least not easily noticeable or significant.

In other words, Keycool is among the god in China's low and mid tier keyboard market. If not because the gaps problem, it can really be a perfect choice.

It is a well-known problem back then, but now may be getting uncommon?

I will try to take picture of my keycool when I am free.

Drill of it pliz.

Is it some parts of it or the overall feel of the keyboard give you the "so so" feeling?

Dey got boards over 800RMB too, don't pray pray.

Name wise, yar really a LOL name, worsen by their new childish + obscene LOGO...

Nothing new, Chinadidthis.gif

Those boards being available locally since last year.

Basically just another rebranding the Rapoo V7.

Owai, mah bad. Now they actually cheapen their Hornet line of products with clone switches too?

Previously they only done it on the Rapoo V7 rebrand,

You will have a tough life finding replacement for modifier keys (Ctrl, Alt, Window, Menu) and spacebar. Apart from that, it is pretty much easy.

Dey are using a clone switch, with a really soft spring (even softer than red IINM).

BTW, RM215 is seriously cekik darah price. It cost less than 300 RMB in China.

From the Linus video, I roughly can see that it isn't Cherry MX switch.

If anyone got take clearer picture, sure can debunk armagedon's claim.

6:38, you saw the Cherry logo.

But it isn't surprising since previously Hornet really do use Cherry MX.

The issue now is whether the one being demoed at Computex2013 is real Cherry MX or Kailh switch. The video a little too blur to determine.

Wait for Noppoo75 better
