CM Stealth's red switch version is priced at RM425, yet the brown switch version is just RM315. That's why I'm thinking to get CM QFR which is Rm265 for now. But if Filco TKL Red is coming soon to Malaysia. I'm definitely going for that  brows.gif
*
rm425 is way too overrated for mx red sweat.gif , i will go for QFR for saving money.

Rubber coated casing. doh.gif CM really know how to kill my mood and limited my choice.
*
Despite of the rubber coating the price tag is nice smile.gif . Well, perhaps just be careful not to peel off the paint or just remove the rubber coating and paint it again like pristine did sweat.gif .

QUOTE(NeverX3 @ Jan 5 2014, 11:45 PM)
That's what I'm thinking. sweat.gif The mx red is sold RM425 yet brown is sold at RM 315, kinda imbalance.  tongue.gif

IIRC CM Stealth is just a side print version of CM QFR right? That doesn't deserve the price increase since I can get a set of key caps rather than buying Stealth just for its side print key caps. flex.gif
*
True, but spending for side printed keycaps cost some more. I think CM Stealth is not rubber coating casing anymore, not sure thou sweat.gif .

so we can fix it in our POKER II?

Not sure yet until we can have a look on the mx rgb switch itself for the soldering joints. If not mistaken it is different from current mx switches.
Besides, there's no source for buying/getting it for now.

I prefer white on black keycaps (well actually maybe gray is ok after having a look at the Ducky dyesub grey). And that set still has smallish legends.
The legends on the imsto's look great but I can't justify the price even they came in black keycaps.

Are the legends on the keycool black poms the same size/font as the ones on the abs version?
*
imsto thick pbt keycaps are justified with cherry profile, thus the higher pricing than regular thick pbt oem profile keycaps even they are same dyesub for printing font colors.
speaking of cherry profile black based thich pbt keycaps it is even more rare, if u have a full set now even rm600+ ppl also will rush for it without doubt.

Well for me I'd rather spend the difference to get a filco in the first place.

I was surprised to see the keycool legend coming off so fast, I can see faint traces of the black background of the 'A' key already. Its a shame for an otherwise pretty well made keyboard.
*
Its laser printed fonts, no surprise at all.
Keycool is well-built, but the keycaps are not. With a price tag of RM200-300 u cant expect a keyboard really comes with good keycaps.
That's why we always recommend a standard layout for TKL and Full size users so that keycaps can be replaced with a better ones easily nod.gif .

I think probably after a few months the product will be available on market unsure.gif .
Most CES/COmputex showcase products are in this kinda way when the feedback or demand is there imo.

the issue here is who owns MX RGB.. Cherry or Corsair or a Co-op

if corsair, we can declare GG
if Cherry, all hail new era  thumbup.gif
if both, confusion  rclxub.gif
*
Yea, I also confuse regarding this. Coz what i know it is now exclusively for Corsair only so far.
Kinda means like only Corsair have this rgb switch for their mechanical keyboards while other brands or competitors not allow to have due to trademark issue rclxub.gif ?

cancel plan to own ducky ready,now start saving ready for this, i wonder maybe this keyboard price tag around Rm5++.
*
lol why cancel getting ducky, corsair still making the non-standard layout that u cant replace the spacebar. unless u are getting the cheapo and mono tone color spacebar from maxkeyboard just to "replace" it instead of changing to better keycaps.

Still not a goodl mech kb although the layout seem ok to me sweat.gif .
Some con from personal subjectives:
- 229usd price tag, expensive and overprice.
- no description about the "x" key is what for.
- left alt key at bad position for gamer imo.
- last but not least rolleyes.gif

What X key? Is that the key beside Alt key? That 1 is command key.
This keyboard is made to support Mac OS. Mac OS layout.
