Take a clear look, the material is imported.

Chinamen always use this strategy to justify higher price and quality claim.

IF you really going for Acrylic case, you have to really understand that aside from the color and maybe the case's transparency for LED Shine, it won't really gives you any typing satisfaction.

As long as the edge is not too sharp or tall, I am ok with acrylic.

Build quality of CM QFR is better than CM TK, they are from different OEM.

If you want to change keycaps, QFR is better because it has standard layout, while CM TK is different you'll have a hard time finding replacement.

CM QFR uses costar stabilizers, which feels better than cherry stabs when not modded.

This 3 alone can change everything on a keyboard, not just because the keyboard has LEDs means that it's the best.

It's a lot closer to 1 kg, not sure where rumours started about it being light.....The TK has a steel plate and the weight, plus rubber feet means it hasn't moved around accidentally in all the time that I use it.

As for why I bought TK:
1. backlit
2. numpad
3. TKL size

Unless you enter into custom keyboard league - those combinations above are unbeatable.

Major negatives:
1. one of the LEDs broke - wouldn't light up anymore
2. non-standard layout.....you do get jealous looking at all the guys here with their keycaps.
3. ABS keycaps. My spacebar is shining dy. Have to ignore forever - coz of no (2)

Neutral:
The key legends..some people love it....some would rather die than be seen with it. I fall into the don't care camp - I don't look at the keys when I type. The backlight only helps when I need to hunt for keys during gaming.

Holy shit! I didn't even know about this Plum 96 mythical creature notworthy.gif
Now that I know about Plum 96....the QF TK is getting sold once it comes back from RMA - next target locked!

Human10 The Plum 96 looks like it is using standard layout, is that true?
*
The "What if I tell you taobao got" is referring to taihao, but whatever, no reason to get taihao from taobao since there are other choices like Vortex/KBC in taobao.

For the PLUM96, mine is 1st gen, which is PCB mounted and using Cherry stabiliser. The spacebar spacing is a little off standard, akind to last gen's keycool.

Currently, there are 2 options for plum96 available in taobao, one is wired only and another is wired + wireless. Wired only one can't do backlit, while the wireless one can. For the layout and keycaps compatibility part, the wired one (owned by one of the member here - JohnDiew) is having all keys (including spacebar) standard, except for the single sized 0 and 00 instead of 2x sized 0 as of normal keyboard (which isn't really a problem if you are get used to TK already).

For the wireless one, since no one here own it b4, so I can't guarantee to you it will be same as the wired one. So if you interested to get the wireless one of it, I can help you go China forums and ask for a more definite answer.

TL;DR:
Wired version confirm standard (except for the 1x 0 and 1x 00 instead of 2x 0), if want confirmation ask JohnDiew
Wireless version I can yet confirm it. If interested I can go Chinaforums help ask.

can any sifu explain what is doubleshot and subdye for pbt???
*
Printing methods.

Like you always see on your keyboard, those are normally either Pad Printed (akind to a sticker stick onto keycaps) or lasered.

The durability of them are pretty short.

Dye-sub or doubleshot on the other hand are some older and more unique ways of printing, which is much much more durable but costly, hence you won't normally find it in modern keyboards (those old keyboards like IBM, hp and bla bla bla are mostly dye-sub or doubleshot).
