Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The only negative about this keyboard is the location of the backspace key. Especially that backspace. It's not for everyone especially if you need the function keys and numberpad often (i find that lack of arrow keys is not much of problem even when ...  Read More

There is nothing better for a pure typist, and it's scary how fast you can get going. They aren't quite as clacky as i'd actually like them and i find that i might type a bit slower than usual but much more constant.

The keycaps are pbt, but there aren't any really fancy materials on display. The touch feeling of the caps (pbt) is very different with abs caps.

The keyboard is louder but feels much better without them. It has just enough click clack in conjunction with the feedback to be pleasing. The sound is less chattery on the upstroke, and it just feels amazing now.

I suspect it will last a good number of years even with me dropping crumbs and spilling things on and around it. I have loaned the keyboard out to a few of my coworkers for a week or two at a time and without fail, my coworkers curse my name and then ...  Read More

Quality


The construction is very solid, the mechanical keys allow you to type faster and the layout is amazing!


Overall this is the best board i've ever typed on; the sound is simply exquisite with a deep bassy sound when bottoming out and...  Read More

Price


Even though it is pricey, i absolutely think it was worth it.


If you program for a living, 250 dollars is well worth it (consider how many hours you spend on the keyboard).


I would argue this thing could be dropped down to $180-200.


I was almost disgusted that i was about to pay this much for a keyboard.

Shipping


Now i can find the quite quickly.


I scoured the forums everywhere, reading opinions on different boards, different levels of experience and expertise, and i quic...  Read More


Very fast delivery, and i couldn't be happier with the product :)


Shipping was fast, item arrived intact, don't really have much to add to what others already stated.

Competitiveness


I'm one of the world's fastest typists, and this is the exact board i compete competitively on.


Worth every penny and much better than zealios, holy pandas, alps, or any cherry switch in my opinion.


I tried some of the hhkb 2 lite's and the membrane keys don't even compare to the topre switches.


If you're coming from mx, the closest comparison i can make is that it is somewhere in between an mx brown and an mx black.
