The Keychron Q1 probably has my favorite layout but I am more interested in others. It's a shame more of them don't have volume wheels they are so nice
Can you review the newer release the Mad60/Mad80 HE, people are comparing it to wooting, and also is only around 50 bucks and even has a website based software
If you want a cheap wooting clone for a fracture of the price, the mad60 and mad68 are sub 50$ on aliexpress. Actuation times are 0.04-0.08 ms depending on the config but if you cannot afford more, this is as fast as you'll get
Excellent reviews, mate! I love the Zenblade 65, but it still doesn't have DKS. Pwnage told me it should be added via firmware update. No timetable on it, tho. Another good HE 65% board is the Nuphy Halo 65 HE. I'm using it now and am very pleased with the performance.
I will admit bias off the top by saying I just bought and received it, but it seems like the LuminKey should be ranked a bit higher. It has all of the functionality you would want from an HE gaming keyboard, but it also looks great in a full, rock solid aluminum body, it sounds really good for an HE keyboard, it has Gateron Jade Pros, and it's only $150, which is less than nearly every other model here. It does feature downloadable software, which is a drawback, but it works very well, and I personally don't think that's a very big deal. I feel like it should certainly jump the Corsair model just ahead of it. In the end, though, these all seem like really nice boards. Good video!
I'm suprised Steel Series wasnt included here. I believe they've been using Omni-point switches (optical) for longer than Razer and I believe they got some good reviews with their recent drop
@@ChristmasChrissy1 i kinda love the nuphy low profile and the performance is not that different compared to the pulsar for 60usd... ill keep researching but i think im buying the nuphy air
How important is a low profile to you? For me, the lower the keys, the better (of course, without losing travel distance), so the NuPhy Air60 is perfect for me.
Drunkdeer a75 pro with the 50 dollar aluminum case(it fits even though they say it fits the non pro only) is better than most on here. Its the 3rd most mentioned HE board mentioned on reddit behind the wooting 60 and 80. I love it and was able to get a polycarb plate for it from amazon or alibaba
Me too I’ve been debating whether to get silent switches or not, I’ve never used silent switches or HE switches in general. But the aluminum on the pro seems worth it. So far nothing in that price range seems to be better
@@jme_eorde they do exist for this long already? didnt know. But the layouts are shit I have to say. Otherwise I would have already bought one. the 80he is like unfatomably ugly. and the 60 unpractical.
@@Alex-bl8uh I personally love the 80HE's aesthetics (especially my beloved frosted plastic), but I can definitely understand how a simple revamped TKL would have looked/functioned better for a lot of people.
@@jme_eorde glad to hear that you can take someone else having a different opinion and that you found your keyboard. Ill probably still need quite a lot of time to find the board that I like. (I want a clean 75%He white, not big bezzles that just works)
My brain, monitor, and wifi are too slow to perceive the difference of milliseconds in delay. I’m definitely going to check out the iQuinx and Pulsar boards tho. Not sure if I prefer optical over (tactile) mechanical switches.
You forgot to include the literal second best after the wooting, the yunzii rt75. It is the BEST HE keyboard outside of the wooting. Only downside is it’s not wireless (which if you are buying HE keyboards, you likely are playing wired for min latency), and the sound isn’t as pleasant as others. Feature wise tho, it’s amazing and the web based software is beautiful
I'm surprised to see GMMK3 with the highest latency with 8k polling rate, even losing to keyboards with 1k polling rate. With that expensive price tag on the GMMK3, that is not acceptable.
Just a heads-up for anyone considering the iQunix. There warranty is completely "useless". I had something disconnect within the case, a magnet or piece of metal, and sent them a video of the problem. Which was a loud rattling when shook, and a short circuit that caused the ESC. key to be triggered at an unreal pace. I quoted useless because, the next step after sending them a video of the problem. Was shipping it back to China. Which was about 80% of the original purchase price of the keyboard.
this is with every company wooting and nuphy does the same I had a wooting same thing happened to me shipping back is so expensive man basically the warranty is scam the 4 year wooting warranty is no good currently using iqunix ez63
I bought the barebones gmmk3 he, it's not compatible with geon works raw he, and not even compatible with mechanical switches 🤦♂️ biggest waste of money and time! I waited a month for it to arrive. Now I'm saving up for a wooting 80he, I'll keep using the on screen keyboard for now ☹️
Bro none of the HE boards work with mechanical switches. HE = magnetic switches, and there’s no standard for these switches yet so each company has their own proprietary switches
@@allenN349 The gmmk3 HE board supports both Hall effect and mechanical switches. I got the keyboard to work with mechanical switches, I just needed to recalibrate it. Im hoping they expand on HE switch compatibility through a software update, as the geonworks kind of worked, or Ill just buy their proprietary switches as you mentioned.
@3ildcard no I tried a bunch of hall effect keyboards I don't think the polar65 pro is the best but it definitely deserves to be at the bottom of the list
lol it’s been a while now, the numpad was when I realized they were cooked and I remember building the gmmk pro as my first board years back but man how they have fallen
@@cjpack they have all the dare in the world to charge you 200-500$ for the worst performance HE keyboard ever and it's brand new just dropped last month.
Yall wasting money on 8k polling rated "gaming" mice and hall-effect keyboards, and I'm still woopin' you all with a 1k polling rated mechanical keeb with standard MX-cherry switches and a fingertip trackball using mouse inversion.
Yeah I had to get the wooting 80HE cause I simply didn't want full size but I miss having arrow keys and function keys, getting 60% is good for some people, but you miss out on a lot of functionality by going that small
Recently looking for a mechanical keyboard, I was a bit shocked they have disappeared a bit. I can finally afford some of the stuff from when I was a kid, but the stuffs moved on, lol. I miss dials, numpads, macro keys, in Keyboard usb hubs. Back in my day, urgh, sorry, I remember one had a fan on it. Ended up going Epomaker galaxy 70 and Epomaker ek21 numpad.
Why do all the keyboards look like they are going back in time? Damn i would never buy a bad looking keyboard (90% keyboards in this video), even if it had 0ms latency and costed 50$. I'm not gonna destroy my desk visually just for the sake of 2-3ms difference (even in Pro play, it won't matter that much). The only decent looking KBs here are: Corsair, Razer, Asus, and then Wooting 80HE barely getting fitting aswell. The KB scene is like cars, there are Lamborghinis, and then there's Honda Civic which is fast, but doesn't care about proper case.
@JakubixIsHere I still kinda prefer 80HE over 60. I don't like the belt thing, it's pointless. This one looks more simple, but it has some curves left and right. The LED bar on the right looks pretty cheap tho.
@@3ildcard ?? Most of those looks like Keyboards i had in 2005, keyboards that i bought in supermarket for 5$. And i use glasses, so i don't need any more.
It's laughable how many people are seeking for affirmation for their purchase, damn. At least others had decent suggestions, that Andy really tried to sneak Ajazz into the conversation. Frank, where is the Endgame Gear keyboard man, pls redo video i need your approval for purchasing a product pls bro, you can't have preferences, we all have to be happy, include all HE keyboards pls bro /s
Same. I want a low profile, HE, 75%, 80%, or TKL with some media control knobs as well. In a perfect world it would also have a little OLED screen on it, and an aluminum case. Don't think I'm gonna get all that in a keyboard anytime soon. And if I do, it's probably gonna be expensive AF.
Got my 80HE in and I'm not really impressed with it. I got the HE keyboard from Micro Center, the MK Pro V2 Max for $100 with QMK, 3 and 5 pin hotswap switches both Mechanical and Magnetic with some Gateron Jades in it now and I like it a lot better than my Wooting 80HE with the Zinc Case and Gateron Switches. Oh, and I got a Aluminum Case for it from their other keyboard that uses the same layout for $60 so I'm in for $220 instead of $350+
