EDIT: I trimmed out the part of the video that talked about north facing switches. It was my complete mistake not to have tried installing the switches the other way (what a dumb move on my part, especially knowing that from how the hall effect switches look, it could be rotated in any direction). Sorry about the mistake!
Thanks a lot for spending your time on a review! You absolutely did it justice by additional lubing it and showing the internals. To help answer some questions: 1. Each graphic on the PCBA under the key is actually from a founder that bought the signature edition when we launched the board. 2. 100 000 000 click lifespan because that's when the machine after months of non-stop pressing is like, well really like fuck me, why won't this just break? 3. You can 180 degree rotate the Lekker switch and install it south facing. Works all the same. Taking note of that transparent strap, that would indeed make it easier 🤩
This keyboard has easily been the best I've ever used for catch the beat personally. Just feels way snappier and the overall control is much better, very much recommend.
@@tokaku Yes! A lot of higher level catch is being able to precisely stop on some patterns along with being able to land on important transitions, so rapid trigger has been super helpful for that kind of thing, especially on dt.
Electrical engineer here. The reason they have a lot of Vias is because on a four layer board one of your inner layers is the ground plane, and then you usually put a ground plane on top after routing all the wires. You place as many Vias as possible to connect the two ground planes such that you have a really good connection for current to flow and for good capacitance. TLDR lots of Vias = good electrical engineer
Yeah, this 100%. There are very long horizontal and vertical traces on the board, so you really need to keep the return path short. On a side note, outside of component density, four layer is much better for EMI certification. We struggled a lot with that with two layer boards in the past.
We call it stitching the layers where I learned PCB design, super important when you need to isolate components that are prone to noise like antennas and other communications components
for those who don't know, you can only rotate the switch for this board since the post and hall effect sensor thing seems symmetrical. but on a traditional mech, the pcb itself would have to come with South-Facing led sockets. so don't go rotating your mx browns and being sad!
tokaku, your shot composition, narrative arc, versatility in considering multiple perspectives, and general quality and pacing have notably improved with every video I have watched over the last couple years. Really great job with this review. It is a delight to watch your content
having analog inputs on a keyboard is awesome. I can see people using that for games like Trackmania, where traditionally keyboard has always had a disadvantage compared to controller because you can only full steer / tap steer as opposed to smoothly steering.
I think most people would think that the swap between this from a normal mechanical keyboard is easy, but the learning curve is actually kind of gotti for those very used to conventional switches. Definitely an insane tool when mastered.
In my experience, I used to use a Cherry Silver K70 and I found that my accuracy on Osu was better with the consistent actuation point, it will take me a long time to learn this Wooting HE keyboard and I will probably need to be more "on it" to hit very good accuracy. I have never been all that good at Osu though so I'm positive there are other players that could preach to this board's features in a few years once they've grown accustomed to it. For CSGO and Valorant though, CRACKED. Absolutely a game changer to be able to stop your inputs faster when rounding corners and stopping to shoot. There was next to no learning period with these games, pretty much just an instant advantage.
I HAVE THIS AND OMG ITS AMAZING!!!!! I bought it after deep searching for good rhythm game keyboards. Also you can change the actuation, theres 4 analog modes and i love it! Oh and modding/relubing it is a dream.
I have it. Preordered it like 6 months ago. Really high quality but I think having it made me realize I prefer my old logitech 65% keyboard for the arrow keys and F1-12 buttons at the top
Using mod tap to make arrow keys out of the cluster in the bottom right corner was really useful for me, haven't missed mine since. F keys are a shame and kind of annoying with function layers but worth for having esc be closer imo
@@Sequoyas that's too much. I think 65% is optimim for gaming cuz it has what you want and its compact. Idk anyone who uses the num pad and stuff. If you are working a desk job the 100% version would be sick
logitech keyboards have been a joke for so long lmao, last row layout makes them so fkin hard to replace keycaps, and their keycap is so shit as well so you're just stuck with a keyboard which looks like it have been through the WW2 even tho you've only used it for 4 months. you made a good choice switch to the 60HE, i doubt you will ever wanna go back to your logitech
@@Agent_Alpha_SLV I probably wont go back cuz of how much money I spent on my wooting but my logitech keyboard worked great and stood the test of time. Definitely a solid backup
If a company has not picked this girl up as a key board engineering director they need to lol she has got this subject figured out and has found her niche in life I’m beyond impressed at this review and this product
i think for getting used to rapid trigger, enabling the "continuous mode" advanced rapid trigger setting and then choosing a rapid trigger sensitivity equal to your actuation point can help. if you do this, you can make it so that the distance you have to press down the key is always the same, e.g. if you set your actuation point to 0.8mm and your rapid trigger (downstroke) sensitivity to 0.8mm as well. in contrast, if you had for example 0.4mm rapid trigger sensitivity but 1mm actuation point then you would have to press the key down 1mm the first time but 0.4mm for subsequent presses until you lift the key all the way up, which might be unintuitive. the continuous mode also helps here, for reasons that are hard to explain in a youtube comment.
personally as an owner of a wooting, the wooting made me stop using my custom made keyboard. I even traded from tactile to clicky switches since that custom is only for typing now.
I have a question about 3:48 "and fixing the stabilizers" I understand it's likely beyond the scope of this video, but I'm curious what we would need to do to fix the stabilizers? Do you have a video that covers those kind of details? Great editing and presentation!
Tokaku reviews are great as always! Super fun to watch even though there is no chance of me even toching one of those Lol, anyway really thanks for the content!
7:57 this is actually what UNIX layout looks like, CTRL and Capslock r switched. and i prefer this because my pinky finger dont have to bend entirely to use ctrl.
I'm just realizing she's as great as she is while having only 1 eye, a bit like the captain in Bleach who had to use that strap on his eye to hold his power ; she has to limit her awesomeness to fit in the screen & not bother us, how awesome, glad I noticed it!
15:41 Finally I got the right explanation about side effects from rapid trigger on mania, that surprisingly makes the gameplay more difficult than I thought
For the switch being north facing, iirc there's a video I watched said that you can just switch to south facing and can use cherry profile... I forget the video but I think it's from badseed tech modding this keyboard.
There's a keyboard by the German keyboard company Das Keyboard that can be used to indicate things like GPU, CPU and RAM status or receiving a gmail, status of a certain stock or even the change in the weather. I have the 5QS and I basically use it as a task manager.
As a keyboard enthusiast, this keyboard blows me away. You get a keyboard that lasts longer than most keyboards, sounds good, has amazing customizability, stock, for $175. If I were to recommend any prebuilt keyboard to anybody, this would take the cake.
10:04 the point of rapid trigger is more like to save u from failing a map after getting fingerlocked rather than stamina cuz u tend to press down the key all the way down u cant change that
If I would get a wooting (and I am strongly considering it) I would probably not play with rapid trigger in osu!, but I'd like to use an analog kb in trackmania and just have a solid kb with a good lifespan for osu! as well.
Loved this review. You didn't just talk about feel, looks and sound like I've seen in other reviews, but went pretty deep into the technical side as well and made educated guesses of who this might be for and what advantages/disadvantages it (might) have. I personally used cheap bluetooth keyboards from Logitech for a long time (which are suprisingly decent imo lol), but now that I got into rhythm games I was looking for an endgame keyboard and this one just looks too interesting to miss out on. I'm sure that once you master it it's gonna be insanely good.
what is the display sitting on a stand on the right at 15:20 ? i assume, anyway, that it's a display that's just turned off for whatever reason; don't know what else it would be. also good video :) i really like the shots with the typing test above the kb
Thought of getting it for mania and then i realized that im a jack main in mania and i always lift up my fingers completely. Wouldn’t quite benefit from it unfortunately.
The software for multiple bindings per key seems super useful but I’m almost scared to set things up that way in case I need to go back to another board for any reason
Steam controller users have enjoyed this input option on the analog triggers for years :) You can use an Xbox or ps4 pad with steam input if you want to try it out
Yeah, but the issue is, well, everything else that comes with using a controller. The lack of precision compared to a mouse, the inability to use your entire arm/wrist to spam a key, etc. Don't get me wrong, they have their place, but saying to just use a controller for that lone reason is not a good idea.
@@Jono997 I'm suggesting that people test the idea with stuff they already have to get a feel for what wooting rapid trigger might be like (before they spend 170 usd). I'm not telling people to play osu with an analog stick.
A very nice alternative for this keyboard I think would be the Drunkdeer keyboards! They also have analog inputs and rapid trigger and have an 85% version!
(15k std player) I invested in the keyboard because Wooting's way of approaching things as a company was so heartwaming. I pre-ordered the keyboard before the first batch came out so i was one of the firsts in the EU to get it. Honestly long-term there haven't been any OMG improvements because of the keyboard, it just helped with finger locking on omega hard stuff. I always singletapped pretty quickly and it helped but not by much (in actual gameplay where u cant really just make ur whole arm a single finger if u play stuff that has actual 180 or more bpm patterns). Pro-tip for sliders just find the rapid trigger sensitivity at which u don't randomly release it (for me its around 0.3mm). They literally told the community everything and asked for opinions too!! (there was a huge issue with lacking of voltage regulators and they told the community the possible price increase to get it out sooner by sourcing it somewhere else and why they choose not do that). Absolutely goated company and I knew they keyboard concept had so much potential, glad to see they are finally getting recognition for their hard work (albeit starting with a drama lol).
> in actual gameplay where u cant really just make ur whole arm a single finger if u play stuff that has actual 180 or more bpm patterns You can actually, I've played with this playstyle for BPMs up to 270, it's an uncomfortable transition to go from armjacking to streaming but it works for DT and whatnot, though it does have its limits compared to learning to alt (other than incredible shake) And yeah! What wooting is doing is really neat and it's cool that they listen to the community and help them the most
I think it has that amount of layers because the swithes are actually like motion sensors, where a key can be double function, but to have that double function it means that each key must have double circuits to the main pcb and each function will be controlled in how deep the button actually is. But this is just a theory I don't see any other purpose of wasting resources on having multiple layers, even if the intention was to have a stronger plaque the could just make it thicker...
It’s 60% to save desk space for gaming in e sports and it gives you much more mousepad space. It honestly the only size I’d buy and I think many other can agree.
I sincerely hope that this very video blows up in views. I seethe the custom keyboard community for not adopting real innovation/improvement (EE side and to a degree, ME side). Thanks, Tokaku :).
i know this is unrelated to the video in every way, but whats the best way i can practice having accurate inputs? in other words, sometimes i accidentally let go too soon on a hold note, don't press enough times (single note into hold, and end up missing the hold note), sometimes i press the wrong input and the right input because i can correct fast enough (end up having misses on lets say 4k where I'm supposed to press D but accidentally press F for example) etc. whats the best way i can prevent all of these? like is there a specific song i should play over and over again? i know just generally practicing helps and also getting in longer sessions but its really irritating, especially when I'm trying to practice alone.
i wonder if this would be comfortable to transition from laptop keys? everytime i tried shitty keyboards around the house or the gamer displays at best buy with proper switches they all felt like ass to me bc laptop keys are so shallow. but i don't want to demolish my laptop's keys over time (i've already done this to a different laptop lol)
I’m personally still not great at osu but tbh I might get this anyway despite needing more practice before I really need any upgrades to do better. I’m still using an old keyboard that I had before getting my computer and while it works okay as just a regular keyboard, it honestly sucks for games, especially osu. The force needed to actually press down the keys is way too much, so it’s quite difficult to press the keys on time, especially for anything that requires really quick repeated hits
Got mines yesterday and I play mania and it’s mostly REALLY good for jacks and vibro. Jacks mostly for ratio like I played a map with 78 perfects and 2k marvelous. And it’s ofc good for vibro lol, I downloaded some vibro maps and got some A and S ranks and I can’t vibro so thanks wooting lol. And I agree with the accuracy with the rapid trigger for stream maps like JS and hs and speed, I noticed that I have a more terrible ratio, more greats but less misses but barely would beat my previous pb’s. It works for certain maps, but stream maps is a no, for me at least
I feel like any analogue keyboard would do this. I know razer do one and I think logitech do one and both should be able to do this. If not, it wouldn’t be too hard to develop a background software that adds this in by taking the analogue input to see how far the key is pressed in real time. So if someone prefers other switches, it should be possible to get the same result
9:42 tachyon is pronounced tah-kee-oan and it's a term in quantum mechanics for a particle that can move faster than the speed of light in the universe
I do miss playing scbw. These games would have been so much fun to warm up on and exercise. This keyboard would have been good in lan more than online due to latency?
man im still using my Wooting One Korean Pro Edition keyboard i got years ago and its still awesome as hell. I mostly play mania and etterna and i do vibro so easily now.
EDIT: I trimmed out the part of the video that talked about north facing switches. It was my complete mistake not to have tried installing the switches the other way (what a dumb move on my part, especially knowing that from how the hall effect switches look, it could be rotated in any direction).

It’s 60% to save desk space for gaming in e sports and it gives you much more mousepad space. It honestly the only size I’d buy and I think many other can agree.
I actually knew about this keyboard a long time ago and it's still the best keyboard till now which is surprising!
Anyways have a nice day! :)
I sincerely hope that this very video blows up in views. I seethe the custom keyboard community for not adopting real innovation/improvement (EE side and to a degree, ME side). Thanks, Tokaku :).
The incredible thing about rapid switch from what I can tell is you can NEVER short stroke the key. ANY impact can trigger it.
I love how I've been watching someone casually cosplay Tanjiro since I saw the haori

What is that? What does the 727 stand for? Is it the U 272 U-Boat?
727 is a bit of a meme in the osu! community.
i know this is unrelated to the video in every way, but whats the best way i can practice having accurate inputs? in other words, sometimes i accidentally let go too soon on a hold note, don't press enough times (single note into hold, and end up missing the hold note), sometimes i press the wrong input and the right input because i can correct fast enough (end up having misses on lets say 4k where I'm supposed to press D but accidentally press F for example) etc. whats the best way i can prevent all of these? like is there a specific song i should play over and over again? i know just generally practicing helps and also getting in longer sessions but its really irritating, especially when I'm trying to practice alone.
bro aint no way I just realised I accidentally got the tokaku desk mat. Ngl tho its sick for my setup but still thats just a massive coincidence.
Cool keyboard but where did you get that deskmat it looks real cool
6:41 who is that in the background ? lol & why homie in the red lookin mad sketch lol
that keyboad sounds amazing
time to wait till christmas!
Even tho I wnt this keybord, I think I'm fine with wht i hve, except the fct tht sometimes the button on my keybord likes to brek.
I DON'T THINK YOU'RE DOING FINE AT ALL WITH A BROKEN *A* BUTTON?
LOL
Man I wish they made a TKL. I use the "unused" buttons like break and pause for recording, muting, and such. Perhaps I might try out that full size
i wonder if this would be comfortable to transition from laptop keys? everytime i tried shitty keyboards around the house or the gamer displays at best buy with proper switches they all felt like ass to me bc laptop keys are so shallow. but i don't want to demolish my laptop's keys over time (i've already done this to a different laptop lol)
I like how when you stream I can just hear you hitting the space bar XD
Whats the song at 13:42?
it is Sakaue Nachi - Crazy Hot
Which site do you usually do typing test?
wowww so best sis 😍😍😍 you must be so rich lah ah bei sing kok gui keypad is too expenside la sis omaigod
I’m personally still not great at osu but tbh I might get this anyway despite needing more practice before I really need any upgrades to do better. I’m still using an old keyboard that I had before getting my computer and while it works okay as just a regular keyboard, it honestly sucks for games, especially osu. The force needed to actually press down the keys is way too much, so it’s quite difficult to press the keys on time, especially for anything that requires really quick repeated hits
I was FLOORED by the sound profile on this thing
Just for the stock thocc it has it's on my wishlist!
Got mines yesterday and I play mania and it’s mostly REALLY good for jacks and vibro. Jacks mostly for ratio like I played a map with 78 perfects and 2k marvelous. And it’s ofc good for vibro lol, I downloaded some vibro maps and got some A and S ranks and I can’t vibro so thanks wooting lol. And I agree with the accuracy with the rapid trigger for stream maps like JS and hs and speed, I noticed that I have a more terrible ratio, more greats but less misses but barely would beat my previous pb’s. It works for certain maps, but stream maps is a no, for me at least
I feel like any analogue keyboard would do this. I know razer do one and I think logitech do one and both should be able to do this. If not, it wouldn’t be too hard to develop a background software that adds this in by taking the analogue input to see how far the key is pressed in real time. So if someone prefers other switches, it should be possible to get the same result
9:42 tachyon is pronounced tah-kee-oan and it's a term in quantum mechanics for a particle that can move faster than the speed of light in the universe
It would be a dream come true to own this keyboard, but I really can't justify dumping $270 CAD on a keyboard lol
Lucky you got a founders edition with the graphics and the cable. Wish I got it early enough to get that 😭 mine comes in two weeks
I miss not having to run keyboard software for cool led effects on keyboard + it has so much cool functionality. Very cool 👍
I do miss playing scbw. These games would have been so much fun to warm up on and exercise. This keyboard would have been good in lan more than online due to latency?
I want it, but apparently they aren’t making anymore until March next year
Not true, they are being made in batches and you can preorder current batch that will be shipped in december
That only applies to the fullsize version, 60HE waiting time is currently estimated to January next year if ordered now
@@rumham9911 ohhhh sounds good
@@rumham9911 or december if you pay for air delivery
8:10 not me resting my pinky on left ctrl automatically
I dont need it....
I dont need it...
I NEED IT
man im still using my Wooting One Korean Pro Edition keyboard i got years ago and its still awesome as hell. I mostly play mania and etterna and i do vibro so easily now.
I totally agree, they need to make a 75% version
oh look it’s wooting!! I love their keyboards :D
