Pros & Cons
Pros
Color gradient is awesome, also they have pretty much any key you need. The transparent lettering is just the right shade to be dark enough on the light keys. The rgb backlights shine through well.
The sound of feel of my spacebar is the most impressive, it's a lot quieter and heavier. They feel smooth, but maintain enough traction. The have the traditional pbt look and ever so slightly rough texture.
Nice solid thunk when typing or gaming. One gripe is there is no small + included for the numpad for 1800 layout keyboards.
Currently an akko 3068b plus with lubed akko jelly pink switches. These are really high quality keycaps. They feel much better then the abs keycaps that came stock on my keychron keyboards.
The legends are arranged toward the top of the cap so that the led will illuminate the standard and shifted icons. The light defuses through the legend perfectly and the letters are crisp and clear in the dark.
Cons
Each key has a coating on it that is so fragile the included plastic keycap puller puts broad, shiny scratches in it. The see through layer inside the keycap is a thin puddle at the top of the cap, making them fairly thin on the sides and giving them ... Read More
The only 2 good things about these keycaps are that they are matte and that they look good from afar. The corsair and razer though not perfect themselves, giving out a reddish tone are significantly brighter than these.
Highlights
Quality
The fit of the caps are sturdy and the colors are bright.
These new keys are better quality and have better see through lighting then the original (to my eyes).
The original keys became shiny and difficult to read with the lights on after less than a year.
The original keytops wore down after 2 yrs and many were unreadable.
Price
For budget caps, these are seriously worth it.
Also, there was a couple keycaps that were nicked so i had to deduct a star but i’m not mad at these keycaps for the cost.
Not just for the money but really at any price.
But for the money, and the fact they're shine through caps.
Shipping
The other people who had cracked keycaps arrive probably had them get destroyed in shipping.
Packaging/appearance
Took away 1 star though because their packing material sucks.
In a box, this would be 5/5 but its not so i am giving it 4/5.
If i didn't know what happens in amazon sort centers, this wouldn't bother me, but i happen to know that it is extreamly common... Read More
With this knowledge, i can't help but see the packaging as subpar.
Competitiveness
It seems like ymdk has the greatest amount of keycap sets to choose from on amazon, which is great.
This is way better value than any other keycap set i've found with all the same features (pbt, shine-through, in stock, has spa... Read More
The shift, ralt, rcntrl and fn are too big.
It does more noise than some other pbt keycaps.
