After many requests and quite a lot of trouble, I have finally established contact with Magicforce, the crazy popular brand in the US and the whole world right now! icon_rolleyes.gif Why is this important? Means I can provide warranty for it already! thumbup.gif Process gave me so much headaches but hey at least we don't need to deal via MassDrop anymore. Of course, all tax issues are handled by me (compared to you buying from Massdrop)

Key features to the Magicforce 68 Smart:

MassDrop:

The board features a very similar profile to the extremely popular Leopold FC660M, but with Page Up and Down keys. But that's not the only advantage over the Leopold.

A standard bottom row means you can customize this board with any standard Cherry MX-compatible keycap set. The Magicforce also comes with three DIP switches that allow you to disable the Windows key, swap Caps Lock with left Ctrl, or swap Windows key with the Functions. The Magicforce features a floating-key design in OEM profile. Fitted with clear legends, the ABS keycaps allow the backlighting to truly shine, while the reflective brushed metal plate adds to the effect. To ensure stability, the plastic base of the keyboard is fitted with four rubber pads as well as two foldable feet.

user posted image

Comes with 4 dedicated buttons for volume control and calculator.
This is a new keyboard by Magicforce, released very recently. It is not even released in the United States yet.
It is a full-sized keyboard encased with a transparent crystal case (comes with a plastic protector out of the box so don't worry about scratches).
Uses Cherry stabilizers (say goodbye to those annoying metal wires)
NKRO extreme anti ghosting
Caps lock will light off if you do not activate it.
Many fun lighting modes (I particularly enjoy playing with the snake)
Dimensions: 435 x 125 x 40 mm
It is heavily influenced by the Apple A1048 keyboard but comes with all the goodness out of the design.
Personally I think I will be using this keyboard for a very, very, very long time, it has everything that I need. Will be switching from AULA to this as my daily driver (gateron blues).
gold-plated cables


Differences between Outemu Blues, Outemu Blacks and Gateron Blues!


From my point of view as a person who has used more than 30 different mechanical keyboards and owned a dozen + of them (from Corsair K95 RGB to a few Ducky keyboards to awesome Chinese boards to terrible rubbish quality also Chinese keyboards)

I can confidently tell you that:
i) Outemus are pretty good in quality, better than brandless ones.
ii) In feeling (as far as blue switches are concerned) Gaterons are better than Cherry MX, Outemus are sometimes on the same level as Kailh but Outemu blues are louder (halfway to the point of Cherry MX greens) So the equation is Gaterons > Cherry MX > Kailh = Outemu > Brandless
iii) The glorious days of awesome Cherry MX switches are over, other brands are improving A LOT more these days.
iv) Blues are best for typing and gaming, maybe you can consider browns too if you need it to be quieter.
v) Red switches are terrible for typing (some ppl will beat me up for saying this), but good for gaming (especially if you're the kind of person who uses the mic a lot when gaming, because reds are very quiet, like blacks)
vi) Seriously, I need to tell you this again, Gaterons are better than Cherry MX, that is a fact.

If you want a small keyboard that has Gateron switches, please check out my Anne Pro by Obins! 60% wireless bluetooth 4.0 keyboard at RM350. https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=4022408

If you want a Gateron keyboard with RGB lighting (meaning that the lights can change colour) please check out my AULA at RM290
https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=3945749


Reason for sale: It's my passion. The more mechanical keyboards I introduce to people who don't own mechanical keyboards, the happier I am. whistling.gif

Gateron browns are smoother than Cherry browns, a bit too smooth to press brows.gif

Hey Wayne,

Sorry for dropping this later than expected, here you go, the photo of the keyboard wink.gif Really sexy on my office desk:

Magicforce 108 Crystal Keyboard

Highly recommended keyboard, I have been a cherry MX switch user for years and this is my first attempt on Gateron switches. Truth be told, I am a bit skeptical to try at first, however my 'white fetish' kicked in and here you go.

Never regretted a bit, in term of sound, it sounds less clicky than a cherry MX blue switch, however, it feels slightly more solid on the Gateron switches. Both also good for typing and I do highly recommend to get one with this price.

Seller's Review

Normally active during evening, and very responsive seller. Recommended and surely will help you promote others to get mechanical keyboard from you smile.gif

Hi, Typewriter keycaps are actually a MassDrop exclusive, however can special order (around the same pricing as MassDrop) at RM80. doh.gif quite expensive and not worth it, in my opinion, but if u really want, can order.

important note: there is a caveat with the typewriter keycaps, they are not backlit (light won't pass through the keycaps)
