Its dpm. And its not a small problem like you are implying, its quite common if you use the stiff cable which is not surprising looking at the very weak connection of the socket to the pcb. Soldering is not in the basic schooling curiculum and even if it was, its still a non trivial task for most users.

Rosewill should've spent 5cents and glued the socket to the case which would've solved theĀ  problem. People don't get mechanical keyboard so they have to waste time to fix problems like this. Swapping out switches after tens of millions of key presses is one thing, this broken socket problem is a proton saga level of flimsy design.

Haha. But, I'm sure is Defective Parts Per Million biggrin.gif
Since, I'm engineer that time in front line.
Ya, I admit that soldering is non trivial task for most users.

There are really no absolute that Rosewill should or should not. Unless the same product sell for many years, they will only improve it.
Once, it is RTM then they are lazy to change the design, many big company like that too, including the company start with letter A. biggrin.gif
People always choose not to buy their products. Nothing is perfect.

Indeed, people don't get mechanical keyboard and waste time fix it. True.
I think mechanical keyboard as my employee, if employee can't get to work, I have to help him.
Since, it's my trustworthy employee.

Edit: 1 of the real reason behind why products not so reliable because they want you to buy more.
For quite sometime, there is lacks of quality products in consumer markets. Too much cost-saving. sad.gif

See Rosewill wouldn't have to spent any money to fix the problem if they put in a plastic connector wired up to the socket (like most other keyboards) and saved money by not giving out 2 thick heavy usb cables (one ps/2 one usb) and just gave 1 thin cable plus the usual ps/2 connector.

I'm afraid they not willing to change the design of current Rosewill, not about money issue for this, just simply lazy.
Agree. rclxms.gif
They just need it make like Filco, wired connector. More reliable.

depending on the model since ducky have a bit more variety in their arsenal.
however, most ppl would compare Ducky Zero with Rosewill RK9000 since both have almost similar pricing.
in this battle, most would say go for RK9000 as it has better QC and manufactured by a well known oem.
Ducky Zero is made in China and a series that's made for entry level but it's not to say that the Zero model is lousy. there's a forumer here who is selling off his Ducky Zero...u may consider that smile.gif

Ducky have other series as well but the price jumps up to RM400+ for the other series whereas Rosewill only have the RK9000 and a RK9001 which is a backlit version (but the backlit version have keycaps layout issue, so we don't recommend that but recommend Ducky Zero Shine instead if they want a cheap backlit keyboard)

first, do you know what mechanical switches do you want on your keyboard?
then, state how much is your budget. we need to know how much you are willing to spend on mechanical keyboard, then only we can recommend a suitable one for you.
next is, do you want full size keyboard or without numpad?
then, do you want backlighted keys?


this forumer is selling his blue switch zero.
