Realize the video is coming up on two years old, so unsure if this comment will even be seen... If anyone does - overwhelmed and hoping for help! Basically I unintentionally came across some keyboard keys on Etsy and bought on a whim. I thought I could buy any old keyboard and throw them on - now I'm being exposed to this entire new world! Kind of cool, but very overwhelming too.... lol I know nothing about sound/feel and have no (known) preferences in that regard. Here is what I know about the keys I bought: +Compatibility: standard ANSI layout 61/87/104% +Switch Type: MX +Profile: Cherry +Material: High quality PBT +Backlit Compatible *Not completely compatible with Razer nor Corsair. Some keys won't fit depending on the specific layout. *Not compatible with Logitech and other mechanical keyboards where the switch is not MX type. Can anyone recommend a keyboard (ideally $50-150) they would fit on? Or a resource or two where I can dig more and try to figure it out? Thank you in advance!! :)
Hey there! As a fellow tech enthusiast, I highly recommend checking out the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule. It's a compact yet powerful tool that offers both vacuuming and blowing capabilities, perfect for maintaining a spotless desk and cleaning your car's interior. The multiple tubes and high-quality filters ensure long-lasting performance. Plus, the ability to quickly clean keyboards with its powerful blowing feature is a game-changer. All in all, I think it's a great tool for keeping your tech setup clean and organized. Hope this helps!
Just got my very first mechanical keyboard. It's a RK84 in black. I rly liked the white one you showed in this vid so I just decided to get one for myself and for not even 80€ it"s a great keyboard. So far I enjoy the brown switches I picked. The keycaps also feel pretty nice. Definitely a huge upgrade from my previous membrane keyboard I used for like a decade. And I suddenly have so much more space on my desk.
They say the first minute of a video is the most important for retaining a viewer. By 39 seconds I feel like this dude adressed the overwhelming nature of the topic and really understands the audience. Half the videos are basically shotgun-on-the-shooting-range attempts.
I really like this video. I feel like it was practical and a great start for a beginner like myself. I have watched a fair few videos on the topic and they are often far TOO detailed for someone who is just looking to start out- to the point where it becomes overwhelming. You struck the right balance, in my opinion, between informing and over-informing. Thanks so much!
Thanks for sharing your perspective! I've actually been using the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule for a while now, and it's been a game-changer for keeping my desktop clean. The vacuum power and blowing capabilities are impressive, and the keyboard cleaning feature is especially handy. Definitely recommend giving it a try!
Great review, it's like im talking to a friendly salesman at a store who knows his stuff and is not forcing me to buy. Great examples, clarity of voice, editing. Good stuff!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I completely agree with you. Based on my personal experience, the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule seems like a great tool for keeping your desktop and other spaces clean. It offers powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities, along with a compact design. The key features, such as the high-quality filters and efficient storage, make it a versatile option. I think it's definitely worth considering, especially considering the reasonable price compared to other brands.
Absolutely stupid how HELPFUL this video is. Perfect blend of humor and information. In person demonstration is a must. Would love a link to demo all key types side x side. Like one key is red the next one is blue etc. thanks for great video. Subbed
Thank you for being the first person on RUclips to explain the difference in the switches! I'm old school, learned on a manual typewriter. If I could get a keyboard with the touch and sound of an IBM Selectric II typewirter. Try working in an office full of those beasts. Offices are far too quiet these days.
This is a very good video for beginners like me. Spent the past few days doing some research for getting my first keyboard and I wish I started with this video because it’s a perfect summary of what I’ve come across :)

I could cry rn. I've been trying to learn touch typing recently and decided to buy a new keyboard *except* all the cool people on the internet have these cool keyboards and talk about cool things that go over my head completely. This really helped, thank you💙
ive been looking into keyboards for a bit and havent found a good guide for someone that doesnt already know much about mechanical keyboards, thank you
Wow, I've finally found a video that goes straight to the point at the same time it's informative. I really wished I'd seen it before buying my first mechanical keyboard :/

Started thinking of getting a mechanical keyboard a week ago as I've only had a laptop keyboard for a while now. But the more I delve into this topic the less I understand about what to choose. I may end up just buying 5 separate keyboards at the same time because it's impossible to choose.
After watching so many videos, this is the only one that I can understand and have a clearer picture on what to do for my first custom mechanical keyboard.
This is SO helpful!! I found a keyboard I really like the sound and feel of, but I need a number pad. I can't find anything that's similar with a number pad, but I can by the clicking bits and key caps! So I was looking into just building one for what I need and it all seemed so complicated and had a million parts... I grew up without computers/tv/games (only in my 20's) so I'm not great with understanding how it all work/goes together. This video was a Life saver!! It is super helpful and put it all in a way I can understand without being completely lost or confused 😅😅😅❤❤❤
Now this is the real beginner video, i have watched a bunch of explanatory videos before i stumbled on this gem, trust me none of the "explanatory" videos touched on size and being measured in %'s, plus the acronyms and their meaning.
I just recently got an XVX S-K80 as my first mechanical keyboard, and I switched out the linear switches for some super clicky blue ones. It's working out great so far.
Thanks for the awesome video! 🙌🏽 Recently started getting really interested in mech keyboards and was just about to make my first purchase (CIDOO V75 prebuilt) and it’s so great to see that all the points mentioned in your video were quite helpful in arriving at this point.
Thanks for making this video easy and fun to follow for a beginner like me. Especially the difference in switches and what to look for. On to watch more videos on your channel. Subbed!
One thing I’m trying to figure out (as a beginner to mechanical keyboards) is whether I want low profile or standard. I picked up a standard and it’s taking me a long time to get used to it coming from an Apple Magic Keyboard. I’m going to try a wrist rest, but it feels like my wrists have to cock back or arms have to hover over the table to type. I wonder if a low profile mechanical keyboard would be a better fit for that.
Highly informative video! I’m getting my first mechanical keyboard and the options are stressing me out. 😭 Luckily I found this video and can narrow it down. Thanks!
great introduction and guide - had no idea it was a mind-field. Decided to go for the Keychron K2 Hot-swappable brown - I'll eventually add white keycaps.
Never give likes on youtube videos but this really made my buying experience a little bit easier. Coming out the video I know roughly what kind of keyboard I want to get in the future and I very much appreciate that. Thank you!

Always heard you talk about mechanical keyboards over on DYEB and wondered if you'd venture making that content! This is supercool! Thanks for the quick and dirty guide, Pete!
I've been looking into this hobby for a few hours now, but every "beginner" video I've watched so far was INFORMATION OVERLOAD! Except this one! I've made some notes on the things you've said, and I think I'm close to making my first purchase. I was literally about to give up and just buy a magic keyboard from Apple.
Cheers for that man, a couple of thoughts.. do you have any opinion on Epomaker and Gamakay brands? I think I may like the tactile brown switch, but seem to recall you mentioning Kailh Jade switches.. are they comparable? I get the feeling I'd go for keyboards with the rotary control and RGB since I'm somewhat acclimatised to having some form of multimedia control and a shaded work areas.. lol.
Hi KeebNews! First of all, THANK YOU for putting together a video that is truly for beginners. I am completely new to this hobby, and I want to know more and feel less nooby. Have watched a bunch of videos and this one is hands down the best. Thank you also for the recommendations. I think I am going for the Royal Kludge 84, wireless in white, red switch. I wanted to try the Anne Pro but I can't find it in the UK and it seems more expensive here (maybe due to its popularity?). In any case, my question for you is, where can I get a white mouse that can pair with the keyboard gracefully so that it looks like a set? Thank you in advance. Giulia
Really awesome and informative! Thanks! What would actually be the smallest size with all function keys, home and right control? As single keys, not reachable with a combination.
Until now I did not know one could be a "beginner" at buying a keyboard! Until I tried to shop for them and there were too many choices and codes, and I didn't end up buying any!
I like the way he explain everything. It’s very clear to understand and to remember for beginner like me. I would definitely not feel annoy if he’s my coworker 😂.
What a quality video you´ve put together! Im thinking of buying the "RK68", so I can go with 65% instead of 75%. Is that a keyboard you can recommend as well? A little bit late to the party, but hope you see this comment. Have a great day!
Thanks so much for this video. Very understandable for someone who just entered into mech keyboards. Truly appreciate your video. Btw I'm eyeing on a *wireless mechanical keyboard* that I can use *for the iPad Mini 6*. And I'll be using it on *coffee cafes*, and also in my *home* for *tasks* and *some gaming* like Wild Rift. What can you recommend for me?
For my first keyboard, I'm getting the Idaobao ID80 crystal and a bunch of other accessories for around $400 I don’t wanna waste my time with a budget boards and do 50 upgrades and waste more money than getting an expensive one upfront.
I want to upgrade or try a new mechanical but my Logitech G510s beast won't die. I've tried to kill it when rage quitting on a Halo Infinite game, but, even dashing it with my fist didn't hurt it. It's a great keyboard and all, but it's too big now, because my desk has a smaller slide out keyboard /mouse tray. Any recommendations? I could try to shoot it. But, don't want to waste ammo lol
Oh wow! I didn’t know this was really a thing. I remember when I first entered corporate America running around the office trying to find a specific keyboards cuz I typed better on it.😩
Thankssomuch for this review! I didnt onow that there was so much to learn from a keyboard! I use the wired Apple keyboard with the iMac and im only a text typist. My wife uses the Fellowes Microban ergonomic as she's a speed typist. But hers is a soft click and is getting typo faults, That's why I'm looking for an ergo keyboard with the wave to replace hers. I dont know if there's any ergo waves that use hotswap keys to fix later errors? Do you have a review of those? Thanks again for amost informative video!

Are you a keeb beginner? What do you think you'll start with? :)
Just ordered a Royal Kludge RK96 limited edition with the yellow switches.
Realize the video is coming up on two years old, so unsure if this comment will even be seen... If anyone does - overwhelmed and hoping for help!
Basically I unintentionally came across some keyboard keys on Etsy and bought on a whim. I thought I could buy any old keyboard and throw them on - now I'm being exposed to this entire new world! Kind of cool, but very overwhelming too.... lol I know nothing about sound/feel and have no (known) preferences in that regard. Here is what I know about the keys I bought:
+Compatibility: standard ANSI layout 61/87/104%
+Switch Type: MX
+Profile: Cherry
+Material: High quality PBT
+Backlit Compatible
*Not completely compatible with Razer nor Corsair. Some keys won't fit depending on the specific layout.
*Not compatible with Logitech and other mechanical keyboards where the switch is not MX type.
Can anyone recommend a keyboard (ideally $50-150) they would fit on? Or a resource or two where I can dig more and try to figure it out? Thank you in advance!! :)

you honestly answered all my questions, so happy i found your video, thanks!! very informative and straight foward!
Where did you get your keycaps for the GMMK, love the spec on that keyboard!
great introduction and guide - had no idea it was a mind-field. Decided to go for the Keychron K2 Hot-swappable brown - I'll eventually add white keycaps.
I did not know this topic and video had so much to give, kudos to you sir. Great vid.

This is supercool! Thanks for the quick and dirty guide, Pete!
Awsome video man, you are helping a lot of people
Yeah thank you for this video , I’m wearing myself thin trying to figure if I’m in or out in this but I’m too curious not try.
Fantastic video! I’m a n00b to the hobby and this helped a lot.
Hey amazing video! I would say to go over silent switches as well. Those can be perfect for work!
Very helpful, thanks.
Great explanation ! thanks for sharing your knowledge !
Very good beginner video, thank you!
Very helpful. Thanks!
Great video! Answered all my questions! Thank-you!

i really enjoyed this video! thank you so much
Really clear and nice video! Thank you so much, I know what to do!
that was a great video, man... good for beginners
Very helpful and concise. Is there any place to order just a variety pack of switches to test each kind before committing?
this was an amazing video, thank you!
Great info! And fun to watch😊
Great video! You helped a lot :)
such a helpful video, thank you!!!!!
This was very helpful!
Thank you. It was really helpful
You're welcome of course!
Superb useful video. Thanks!

Great info. Thanks!
Why do you right click to open a new tab? You can click with the wheel, also called middle button, or hold Ctrl and click.
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
This was super helpful, tsm!
Of course! Happy to help :)

Subscribed! Great stuff man, you look like Ed Helms too lol
I want to upgrade or try a new mechanical but my Logitech G510s beast won't die. I've tried to kill it when rage quitting on a Halo Infinite game, but, even dashing it with my fist didn't hurt it. It's a great keyboard and all, but it's too big now, because my desk has a smaller slide out keyboard /mouse tray. Any recommendations? I could try to shoot it. But, don't want to waste ammo lol
Oh wow! I didn’t know this was really a thing. I remember when I first entered corporate America running around the office trying to find a specific keyboards cuz I typed better on it.😩
this was the best video actually harvard approved
Thankssomuch for this review! I didnt onow that there was so much to learn from a keyboard! I use the wired Apple keyboard with the iMac and im only a text typist. My wife uses the Fellowes Microban ergonomic as she's a speed typist. But hers is a soft click and is getting typo faults, That's why I'm looking for an ergo keyboard with the wave to replace hers. I dont know if there's any ergo waves that use hotswap keys to fix later errors? Do you have a review of those? Thanks again for amost informative video!
"Apple not so magic keyboard" Haha, love this guy
if you use alt codes for short hand and cant afford the productivity loss, then you need the num pad.
