I was literally just looking at this and wondering if there were any reviews on this. I saw a new notification and this was uploaded 4 mins ago. Thanks Techne
Great review as always. Got the regular TKL version for 849 SEK which is about 80 euro during Black Friday here in Sweden. Now I've got a great portable keyboard to spare! Not really ready to give up on my old Corsair K95 with the 18 macro buttons, it's incredibly powerful so I will definitely be wearing it out until it straight up gives up.
My Vulcan TKP Pro failed last week, I bought the Vulcan TKL this time, and yeah after using optical switches for over a year, you can most def feel the difference. The optical switches feel smoother!
Techne I'm trying to pick between this one or the steelseries apex pro. What do you think. Would prefer wireless too but this one doesn't have a wireless version. Should I hold off.
Is there any kind of advantage from the TKL Pro towards the TKL other than the durability of the Optical Switches? Is the TKL Pro like...faster? I mean they have the same actuation of 1,4mm but is the TKL Pro faster because the light sensor has a lower latency input than a mechanical switch? And even if it was faster, does it really matter? Please enlighten me, Sensei :)
I really like that you got both versions and compared them to each other. Awesome work as always. Any chance to test the new Roccat mice too? Burst and Burst Pro.
It's good but I buy the roccat Vulcan tkl and doesnt have a wrist rest can i buy it separately, it will attach well with magnet and it is the right size? thank you
Only thing that bugs me on the review is you said you struggle to tell the difference with how each switch feels but still went with the optical being smoother. The only difference between them is. One breaks a light bar. The other hits the bottom of the pcb pretty much. Both feel the exact same as the original switch was altered very slightly to interupt a light bar. it is still the original and same feeling switch. So as for smoothness i would say its identacle and it might be a slight mentality difference? Besides this its a wonderful rewview! and im really considering the tkl as i have a 122 atm. However deskroom is a issue atm.
Hmm the mechanical one sounds better from the recording, but I'm getting the PRO and it'll be my first keyboard with optical switches! Definitely looking forward to it! ✌️
To not spam techne, I'll just update in my own comment. It arrived one day earlier from Amazon and I really love this keyboard!!! It's so comfortable to type on!!!
@@_.go._ Nice! I’m getting one too! Comes in on Wed. Wish they didn’t use ABS keycaps though, I might return it. Let me know if you’ve had any problems with the keycaps, because I got this keyboard for $40 off on Amazon, and this board sounds and looks super nice.
@@aidencortez5490 It is using ABS keycaps, but it doesn't feel that bad! It will leave some greasy marks on it, but I like the smooth touch. $40!!!? That's so cheap! I got it for like CDN$129.99 lol. Personally speaking, this is one of my favorite keyboards :D
really loved this keyboard except for 1 flaw that made me return it. the space button is shaped round as where as the keys are low and concave so every time i would go to hit the C or V button my fat palm would hit the space button and and ruin my motion of gaming.
Alread tried them out at a local store. Love both of 'em but the are to expensive in my opinion 130€ for the normal tkl. If they drop under 100€ on Black Friday I would probably buy it
Hey techne love your channel, but what headset do you recommend for PS4, I’ve been using the Razor kraken for a while and I think it’s time for an upgrade
so you put media controls.. a mute and volume adjuster.... ...why cheap out and not include one more "start/pause" button? cause i use it quite a lot on my logitech keyboard! the design looks very distracting to me. needlessly too flashy(literally).
Man I bought a roccat mouse years ago and the drivers weren't supported by windows 10 which means none of the extra buttons would register. I spent about 4 hours trying every work around on the internet. I sent that thing back the same day. I assume it's different now but that experience really soured me on this brand.
Hey Techne, I was looking into the Titan switches on Roccat's website and they state that the Optical ones have a travel distance of 2.8mm while the mechanical ones have a total travel of 3.6mm, was wondering if you could confirm if they feel the exact same or there is indeed a travel distance between them.
Logitech G513 switches went bad after 2 years. Just after warranty. Double typing, or non responsive for some keys, actually most keys. Well played, Logitech.
I am looking for an rbg tkl mechanical keyboard. I had the Hyperx Origins core with Hyperx Pudding keycaps in mind but the Vulcan TKL Pro also looks good (I would get the apex pro but it is out of my budget). Which one would you recommend I should get?
As a TKL fan, i must say i'm really disappointed with one thing about the Vulcan TKL (no pro) : The rubber cable. I really love Roccat stuff and i'm actually on a setup with Suora as a keyboard, and Tyon as a mouse. They are both with braided cable, and from 2016 and 2014. The fact the Vulcan TKL doesn't have the same cable as his brother is pure marketing : If you want that cable, buy the most expensive one, even if you are not interested in these optical switch. Beside that point, they both seems amazing, i just don't know which one i should pick now...
Good review as always. Been waiting for the optical tkl review. I purchased the mechanical version not too long ago, but ended up returning because the swarm software kept crashing.
Just picked yup the tkl from best buy. It was that or a Logitech one. Haven't had good experiences with logi so wanted to try a new brand I haven't heard of. Good review.
@@TheTechne bro I can’t believe how fast your channel is growing, It felt like yesterday when I was watching your review and you had 4K. Congrats on 100k man! 🎉🎉🎉
It's time to compare top tier wireless headset like Corsair Void Pro, Logitech G Pro X Wireless, Cloud 2 Wireless, Razer Blackshark V2 Pro, Arctis 7 all are almost the same price so it would be awesome if you compare them.
Great review. Looking forward to your review of the GMMK Pro when it comes! In my opinion ABS isn't necessarily worse than PBT, GMK keycaps for example are ABS. It's more that they used a poor quality ABS plastic. I would agree PBT perhaps has better inherent characteristics for a gaming keyboard though.
Not PBT. That's the information I was looking for. I been looking for a low profile board with stock PBT keycaps. I thought I found one but I can't remember where I saw one.
hey techno glad to see you grow from 18k, keep it up bro. I have a question though, do you know any good budget keyboards? preferably %60 but i wouldn’t care if it was tkl as i have one right now.
hey techne do u think the apex pro tkl is worth the money since the keyboard will last a long time but the keycaps wont. Also is it worth if i dont get pbt custom ones
Techne after no power >>> regular techne. The videos just have a different vibe... Keep it up and i hope there's no more power issues delaying this kind of content
Sorry I am kinda late I didn't get notified there is something wrong with RUclips but glad you are safe and still uploading and also would you mind doing a video on a new hot swap keyboard
Yeah and as usual the RUclipsr Reviewer has a perfect tuned version without a rattling spacebar. I ordered and returned this KB 10 Times, and i try it every time im in a hardware shop, and the normal non Reviewer Version have all a awful rattling spacebar.
Any way to get one of these with Seriko or Topre switches? Just want it to be super silent but also, if possible, similar to a brown with a little tiny bit of tactile.

thank you for watching!
Thanks for making such great reviews and for the heart.
Techne you work so hard! The only reviewer who has done reviews on all the keyboards I'm interested in, much respect!
I have the vulcan tkl and it’s probably the best keyboard that I’ve ever used compared to the ones I’ve used before.
Techne! Can you make a comparison video with the SteelSeries Arctis 7 and the HyperX Cloud 2 Wireless? That would be really cool!
Arctis seven.
Arctis seven
soon
@@TheTechne or maybe even throw in a small comparison with the cloud flight S as well
Another idea: ducky one 2 tkl vs Vulcan tkl pro

I tried this key at BestBuy and it typed very well. I like it. I wish they make it in a wireless version.
I have a roccat keyboard and they definitely improved there Stabilizers
My Vulcan TKP Pro failed last week, I bought the Vulcan TKL this time, and yeah after using optical switches for over a year, you can most def feel the difference. The optical switches feel smoother!
you need to get verified my guy you totally deserve it, keep up the great work!
Techne do you prefer Redragon h510 or coolermaster mh630? Which one do u think is overall better
Would you chose the Vulcan TKL pro or the Steelseries Apex TKL Pro?
Techne I'm trying to pick between this one or the steelseries apex pro. What do you think. Would prefer wireless too but this one doesn't have a wireless version. Should I hold off.

Roccat mice coming soon
No PBT keycaps and can't really swap is an absolute no go for me unfortunately
It's good but I buy the roccat Vulcan tkl and doesnt have a wrist rest can i buy it separately, it will attach well with magnet and it is the right size? thank you
i am convinced this guy has reviewed every product
What do you guys prefer I like the razed black widow or this
The techne what keyboard are you currently using the most right now? Is it the apex pro?
Logitech _or_ Roccat? G502 Hero + G915 TKL _or_ Roccat Kain 120 + Roccat Vulcan TKL Pro?
Haven't even finished the video but I already know it's gonna be a banger :D
What's your favorite keyboard??
If they ever come out with double shot, bluetooth, full version I will jump on it.
I was confused during the sound test 😂
Hello, Techne - can you please do a video on your Top 5 TKL Keyboards recommendations..
i cant tell which keyboard is which on the sound test, is the top keyboard the pro?
how do u like these keyboards compared to the Huntsman TE TKL?

No USA support. Need a replacement key after 7 months of light use and customer support was rude and unhelpful.
You should start your own gaming peripherals brand!
Alread tried them out at a local store. Love both of 'em but the are to expensive in my opinion
130€ for the normal tkl. If they drop under 100€ on Black Friday I would probably buy it
thats fast they dont even have these out for sale anywhere here
I've a vulcan 121, are the switches as good as i buy the new vulcan pro tkl ? Is that worth ?
I bought it for the macros. Care to show us how to program them in? Are there any gotchas?
What is your best keyboard
I can’t tell you how muchhh you help me out with your videos, keep up the good work !
Techne. I want to buy a budget microphone. Which do you recommend
that hyperx one I just covered
@@TheTechne thank you so much
Nice! I'm getting the Pro soon! It's on sale and they're both around the same price on amazon right now
This keyboard honestly looks amazing and those stabs tho awesome review techne
thank you
Hey techne love your channel, but what headset do you recommend for PS4, I’ve been using the Razor kraken for a while and I think it’s time for an upgrade
steelseries 7p
so do the optical switches make any noticeable difference?
so you put media controls.. a mute and volume adjuster....
...why cheap out and not include one more "start/pause" button? cause i use it quite a lot on my logitech keyboard!
the design looks very distracting to me. needlessly too flashy(literally).
0:20 that sick beat dropped like how 2020 dropped us
i wish you had text saying which was the pro and which was the regular, thats the only critism i had.
I really like the hype music! Great review!
thank you
hey i have a question about modding this keyboard? would you recommend some mods like masking tape and foam mods in the board

the origins is a very solid choice!

thank you so much
I'm so curious to get my hands on that TKL 😬
Awesome Review Techne ;)

abs is a bit slick for me when serious gaming. anything other is fine.
Aye
Not PBT. That's the information I was looking for. I been looking for a low profile board with stock PBT keycaps. I thought I found one but I can't remember where I saw one.
You my friend should look into fnaticLP keyboard. Thank me later
Should I buy the Vulcan TKL Pro or the Apex Pro For Pure Gaming / Preformance for faster spamming
apex pro
what about dk61e with yellow optical switch
Lovin’ these reviews
Could you make a Redragon h510 vs coolermaster mh630 please? Both seem to be extremely good and around the same price.
Every video Techne review, he just nail it every time, keep up the good work!!
thank you so much
ur reviews are honest and i respect that, sub earned
thank you so much for the support
hey techno glad to see you grow from 18k, keep it up bro. I have a question though, do you know any good budget keyboards? preferably %60 but i wouldn’t care if it was tkl as i have one right now.
hey techne do u think the apex pro tkl is worth the money since the keyboard will last a long time but the keycaps wont. Also is it worth if i dont get pbt custom ones
I still love the apex pro
@@TheTechne yeah but do u think its worth it if i dont get pbt keycaps
Are the boards compatible with non low profile keycaps?

lol, I wish my fence was like that :(
Awesome review as usual. Looking forward to your review of the burst pro!
great review! but that keyboard is super loud for red switches unless roccat mixed up the colors
I can't decide which one to order. The TKL Pro is only $10 more than the regular TKL, but I like mechanical switches, so I can't decide..lol
Even tho you have a 163k subs I still think your underrated
Waiting for that long prolonged comparison of headsets man.
Don’t forget us. :3
soon to come
Sorry I am kinda late I didn't get notified there is something wrong with RUclips but glad you are safe and still uploading and also would you mind doing a video on a new hot swap keyboard
I dont think he mentioned. is the rgb reactive to games?
but does is this tkl better than the apex 7 tkl or durgod hades 68?
Thanks for the Review. It was very Informative.👌🏻
the one below is which?
That Video was incredible perfect!!! Thank you!
What you think ducky mini 2 or this for FPS gaming
ruclips.net/video/hmzq7Vk14kU/видео.html
Which one is the pro and the normal one at 3:30?
Yeah and as usual the RUclipsr Reviewer has a perfect tuned version without a rattling spacebar. I ordered and returned this KB 10 Times, and i try it every time im in a hardware shop, and the normal non Reviewer Version have all a awful rattling spacebar.
Yo techne lovin the new music in the intro!
Any way to get one of these with Seriko or Topre switches? Just want it to be super silent but also, if possible, similar to a brown with a little tiny bit of tactile.
100k!! Congrats
thank you
Where can I get custom
Keycaps
For this keyboard?
What headset should I buy for 70 dollars or less I was thinking of the astro a10s but idk
Nice man what keyboard and mouse do you use
q&a coming soon ;)
@@TheTechne that is going to be a good video
The real question is: do u prefer these keyboard over the hyperx TKL (like the origins core)?
ahhh I love the origins
@@TheTechne awesomee thats what i thought!
Hey Techne could u do a review on the new mountain Everest max? I think it would be really cool
roccat vulcan pro tkl or apex pro tkl
do you think a quality keyboard, mouse, or headset is more important great video btw as always.
those keycaps would look just increadible on the Steelseries Apex Pro TKL
Does the optical count as a machanical keyboard
The sound test sounded like ASMR for nerds, it was quite uplifting.
finally, I've always wanted a tkl optical vulcan
Could you do a compare vid with the fnatic streak 65 and the roccat vulcan tkl =?
The sound is the killer for me, I need a keyboard bad, but I want a more quiet one
