well cant compare to what u have.
pre-builts sucks much. ha ha
except Filco coz Filco is love, Filco is life.

yea, i read that outemu blues produce more pronouce clicks.
but a new kibod, will definitely feel better than old kibod.
my ducky blue, feels sucks now after more than a year. Filco blue is still nice after 4 years(bought used), but im kinda bored with blue oledy.
no wonder all the sifus likes linear.

Guys . . .
Can recommend me any good mechanical keyboard as my laptop keyboard spoil already.

Was looking for Red Dragon YAMA K550 with purple switch. This brand good or not ??

Thanks

better to state ur budget.
coz if u ask me, ill just suggest Filco.

and i have no experience on that Red Dragon. so no comment on that.
all i know is, Dragon Ball ade 14 biji semuanya.

uh? it feels better for you? i do use blue switches casually from time to time; cherry mx and gateron (gat blue still have their clicky effects intact, because i don't use them daily). the demo tecware board i tried on has outemu blue. for some reasons, i do experience minor switch inconsistency during typing. maybe it's a demo board, and have been used by many for testing all this while; or maybe it's just my own preferences doing tricks on me.

which 2 boards do you have? i am curious about boards with blue switches that you're comparing to.

not all pre-builts suck. i still like filco, varmilo, and ikbc lol (they can be even better if minor mods are done to them, i.e. for case and switches)

i have the filco and cm qfr with blue switches. maybe its just preferences, or the outemu blues is already worn out. my qfr is also almost 4-5 years old.

yeah that's what i suspected (switches being worn out for some reasons). like one of our sifus here said before, a more sensible total key strokes for switches is about 10mil, not 50mil. i still find it hard to believe that 10mil strokes have been reached as a demo board.

hidden qualities like switch endurance and reliability can only be proven with time. some of my boards are also more than 3 years old already. besides wear and tear, they are still working like new (some of them are not second-hand; but many-hand lol)

true about that, mx cherry seems to get better over time. time can only tell how will this tecware phantom last.

maybe haha it's always combos of different parts that make a mkb nice. (although in this case switches might be the main issue)

although tecware boards have almost all bells and whistles, there are shortcomings here and there if you started to be picky. still, for most new comers for mkbs, boards like this is a good buy because of the price. one thing good for beginners to get tecware is that it lets us swap switches easily. instead of switch testers, imo a full board can give us a better idea on different switches, and mods done on them, without spending much relatively.

don't get me wrong. tecware boards is still one of choices for budget-tight users, just like any other affordable options in the market. my previous comments were based on my own comparisons between my other boards with the tecware unit (and i really try to be as objective as possible). to me, i still think it's better to spend a little extra for better qualities.

can somebody assist me to purchase below 250 mechanical keyboard ?

XD75re with red aluminium case.



Still work in progress. Currently it houses the Outemu Browns from Teamwolf Zhuque, my plan is to put Hako Clears on them. But Hako switches doesn't ship until next year soo...
But I might just get some Kailh Box Whites and put them here, if the temptation is too strong. However these browns doesn't feel half bad at all. Although not as smooth as Gateron browns, the tactile feedback is a lot more pronounced.

Anyway this is my first dab in ortholinear board. Gonna try out different layouts and see which one works best for me

nice

personally i don't like the layout much so i skipped xd75re. hopefully there are more options in near future. i am beginning to get bored haha

Do you prefer something like Preonic or Planck? Or do you like columnar-stagger instead of perfect matrix?

I got this mainly because it seems kinda interesting to have nav cluster in the middle and the price is reasonable.

with that budget, maybe used ikbc c-series or filco majestouch/ninja. you should check out garage sales section mymkb fb for good deals also.

er neither. i will choose xd75re if i were to go for those layouts. i prefer standard layouts (as in those found in pre-builts) however i might get some for casual testing purposes later lol

yeah the price is fine, replacement parts are easy to get, etc. actually it's good for those who wanna learn more about basic customs

Maybe can elaborate more on ur preference?
backlighting? switches? size?

I see. I am also too used to the normal staggered layout that my typing speed on this ortholinear board is terribly slow. But I find it pretty nice for gaming as this kind of grid layout is really easy for the fingers to get around. This board might just end up being my glorified gamepad, haha.

maybe i should increase my budget ,
i want a mechanical keyboard with wrist rest feature.

u can go cheap with aula. i think got wristrest and it is 250.

if u just want a mkb that is.

guys, can recommend a tenkeyless keyboard? for mobility purpose. always want to carry it with me for work / travel outside.

Filco is Love, Filco is Life

You can give HP Gaming Mechanical Keyboard a try
