Which ones are louder? The yellow ones of the lilac ones?
Is it quiet ? I live with roommates and I type quiet a lot
they make the same sound lol... huge fan of the popping. might get them for myself.
Good thoughts re: what is a budget keyboard. It’s really hard to judge the value of manufacturing tolerances etc and features are hard to value especially when mixing and matching. But as far as how the experience is, well, that’s what we’re here for.
For sure I agree it's very person by person basis
Can you do what you can do on the red dragon fizz which is have ‘the key has two functions holding down is one type and clicking is one type.’?for instance, you could bind that ‘clicking’ left control would make it so you the click the button for crouch and holding left control would make you go prone.
What's the life span of these switches? My taps/key press are heavy during gameplay. Cheap OEM's don't last long. (obviously cause they're cheaply made.)
Honestly would like this in a brighter white backlight. Beek looking for a keyboard to use in our instructor consoles that has replacable keys and switches, backlight, a volume wheel, and removable USB, or the K654 with a wheel I'd really like the logitech orion 610 if it had a replacable cable, and was slightly narrower. Also its apparently no longer sold and the K845 removed the wheel in favor of a key combo that requires 2 hands. I'd love a successor to the tessoro gram XS but with a volume wheel, that keyboard was SO bright despite being only USB micro B powered.
i almost ripped my screen connector the first time i opened the ND75 also this keyboard looks so good
Agreed and yeah that was my biggest concern with the screen

Hello! Are these switches good for gaming? Thank you for your review 😊
Just got this today, its really short and snappy and has a creamy feel and a somewhat solid feeling. I originally planning to go with the silver pro but i heard good reviews on this key switch and i didn't regret getting this.
I have the 75% version of this, but I'm thinking of getting this one because of the volume knob
Is crystal switch good for gaming cause I found a good deal for it?
How do unscrew board for me to tape mod it too?
No VIA. 1.2mm flex-cut PCB with a soft flex-cut plate makes it hard to mount switches properly and sounds leak everywhere so you're basically forced to tape the PCB. The screen makes the ball-catch system semi-pointless because you still have to unplug the cable for it and I can already see people accidentally ripping it out. And God only knows what it sounds like when you take out the foams, even partially, because almost no one is testing it in that configuration, and with foams it sounds just like any other foamed up board. Honestly, I'd rather get the Bridge75 because it looks less tacky, has VIA and it sounds semi-decent without foams...
All valid criticisms
i loveeee akko switches sm, great review!!
Thank you!
Akko is really making the rounds with these switches! I've heard some good opinions on these from a few different reviewers. Might be worth a look, though I have strayed more from tactile world.
These are definitely unique and difficult compared to other tactiles so I'm not too sure if it should be your introduction to tactiles imo
So it's more clack than thocc?
From my sound test, yes it was

Is this QMK or VIA compatible?
How does it sounds compared to Azoth Nx Snow? Sounds similar? Do you think this one is a better buy since it’s much cheaper?
can you recommend a rechargeable battery that lasts longest for this mouse?
connect with ipad ?
Lol, i was looking for a keyboard, and I got a nice cute paws in the keys hahaha, last seconds were worth hahaha love ur cat bro
Thank you lol!
brother PLEASE ANSWER THIS i tend to keep my fingers on keyboard and rest press sometimes the keys be accident... would higher operating force be better for me than lower?
Higher
no pcb stabs, no VIA compatible... why?
Totally forgot about the no via support tbh
Nice vid mate . Want to point out that flex cuts are ideally for flex, which is within an area. Bounce is the up and down of the whole assembly. Nowadays usually gasket mounts → movement of the whole assembly. It's a bit of a gray area though I guess because of how difficult it is to create localized flex without the tradeoff of sound degradation due to flex cuts
Ahhh that's what I meant sorry for the mix up of words!
Mine in purple is on the way, looking forward to comparing it again my Rainy75 soon. Very nice review Preston!
Thank you! Hope you enjoy it :)

Do you think a foam modding is possible?
Yup should be!
Hey bro do you still have your Awekeys metal keycaps? I'm thinking about buying them but I've seen mixed reviews so I'm not sure. Was wondering if you could tell me what they're like after 8 months of use. Thanks
The snow switch really less sound then other switchs.Thanks I love it.❤❤❤❤
Hi, whats the real difference between the wireless and wired version aside of no cable? is the same keybaord? thanks! i want to know because there is an 80dls diff....
Different switch options too I believe!
SOLD OUT ..... :( ...
Wasn’t previous akko speed silver faster than these??
Creamy
Put those in my epomaker rt100! THEY ARE AMAZING and super super responsive love to play CS and other shooters with them. Had some Epomaker shadow black to test aswell but the Akko are sooooo much faster and responsive you even think about touching a key and it klicks. My keyboard came preinstalled with epomaker wysteria tactile switches and i didnt know the real difference in gaming witch taticle vs linear... Just felt bad in gaming like very slow and heavy movement. Since i changed to linears games feel crisp and responsive again!
I love a steel mounting plate, especially after taking out the foam from a keyboard. Really makes a clickbar switch sing. Been meaning to see how those new Gateron Melodicd are, and this seems just the right board.
do these switches have north facing interference?
Yes most switches do
i got someone to get cottons and put it for me they are on sale
I feel like the RGB LEDs are pretty lacking. Compared to my Rac3 RGB it seems much more dim.
Just the camera they are plenty bright irl
@@PrestonsThoughts I mean, I'm comparing it to my other keyboard. I have both right now. Noticeable brightness difference between the two.
I'm not a good enough gamer where such a keyboard would make me any better, but it is cool to see how this kind of keeb is getting more accessible

Isnt it as sturdy and solid feeling as the Azoth and about as heavy too? When my Azoth came a few days ago i was like hmmm whats this package no way its a keyboard package weighed like 5 damn pounds. No it was indeed the keyboard. My Razer deathstalker v2 is built like a TURDDDDDD in comparison to the Azoth. So yea i also ordered the Falchion rx low profile as well now. I have 2 high end pc's i just built so i want atleast 8 different keyboards.
Overpriced AF. How is this good value?
Which one is better for Valorant,cs akko 7th anniversary or drunkdeer A75
red? or blue?
No thanks. Never buying another Asus product after GN exposed them.
Why? Can you explain me what happened? I just bought this keyboard onilne 2 hours ago
I actually forgot myself I thought it was something related to graphics cards but I'm not too sure anymore
ngl thoose keyboard sounds are pure ASMR
I didn't even know it comes in white! I got the black one and it looks just as nice.
