Welcome back to the channel guys! There has been many milestones in the keyboarding hobby, and one such major one was this year, when Qwertykeys (Owlabs) decided to drop the QK65 "entry" keyboard. Clearly, it was a non-entry keyboard hiding behind a "entry" price point. Since then, many new keyboards came out to challenge it, but fell short. Now... the real challenger is here... the JRIS65... I know... the name is dumb.

You unintentionally created the best sound I’ve ever heard from a keyboard with that build…
I love how owlabs dropped a big fat middle finger to every 65 keebs with the release of qk65. This started a whole NEW LEVEL of competition amongst companies. The war for the best entry 65 keebs has begun.
Let it begin!
Now all we need is good in-stock cheap quality options for 65% boards. Keychron Q2 series and others are great, but it just isn't the same as a QK65, JRIS65 or even Zoom65.
@@farlig8666 apparently the gas67 doesn't exist (unless you need metal, or via)
@@farlig8666 Bakeneko65???
@@farlig8666 Zoom65 shouldn’t be lumped in with the QK65 lol, board’s def a step down
The quadratic formula gave me flashbacks
Haha I tried to think of the funniest formula from back in the day
@@Keybored its THE one formula where you won't always need it but will never forget it
how i missed being a student again hahaha
Best formula frfr
@@Mayhoes Agreed. Just complete the square lol.
Wow! The fact that the PCB is ISO compatible out of the box is insane. As a customer from Germany there is not much option to choose from. Great video again!
Thank you so much!
If only there were some keycaps for us :(
the board sounds so good that it doesnt need any modding.
I am really waiting for manufacturer to make 96% keyboard with this same quality.
96% keebs are not popular enough to sell well so yeah, don't get your hopes up
I wish the standard for review would be plate only, no foam, just to see how the keyboard sounds. And measure every other build (plate foam only, plate + case foam, plate + pe + case foam) against it. But at least the plate only build would be nice to hear since most of us start with that build. Regardless, always appreciate your efforts, Scott. You stand out amongst reviewers because of all the other technical details you explain in your reviews.
This is a really good video, this board got my interest.
Though, if it won't be a pain, I would love to hear both end of the spectrum, going for a low pitch, deep sound first and a high pitch, sound next. I would love to see more builds with high pitch clacky sound profile because you made really great videos with them
Just something to consider, it is an awesome video overall, I love the intro skits as always, stay awesome Scott King!
Thanks! I appreciate the comment and suggestions!
So, a qk55 with a daughter board and a better looking weight?
I would call that an upgrade. A slight one maybe, but still an upgrade.
Main reason for naming it "Jris" was so that they could keeb the logo design as the "I" already looked like a "J" in the font they used
Such a weird strategy lol
They could of just named it "Irys". Give hololive fans a keyboard for their favorite v-singer.
@@laffeybunn8557 yes ofc would have been nice but as said they did not want to redesign the logo
I'ma still call it the iris65 tbh lol
Got my qk65 last month but still going to get this especially since this is a limited group buy, hopefully they announce the date soon.
Yup! They said 2k globally, so not sure exactly how many for US
was the qk65 not limited as well?
@@ascenphis R1 yes r2 was unlimited, but Qwertykeys is a much larger company with the backing of owlabs so they had the resources to eventually take on larger order in contrast this is mykeyclub’s first board and there is no guarantee of a r2 happening after release let alone it being unlimited that’s why this board is probably going to sell out within a few minutes.
@@neogem200 i see, appreciate it
Love to see more boards featuring ISO hotswap, it’s very rare
I know! This one got so many options. Well except the space bar options I guess haha
hahahaah the intro is absolutely hilarious. Don't stop making videos!
Thank you so much Calvin!
Great board, but that name really kills it for me. I couldn't handle having a keyboard knowing I've got JRIS written underneath... I wouldn't be able to stop thinking about it 😅.
Haha makes you think... What is Jris
From what I've heard, Iris Labs didn't really change the writing on the weight from their original design though - that's why they renamed it JRIS instead of something else, because their cursive "I" looked like it could be a "J" instead. So as far as I'm concerned, the board is the JRIS65, with a weight that says Iris
@@leftcoastfunk Yep, the board is referred to as "Iris 65" on Chinese social media sooo
Just pulled the trigger on this (my first mech keyboard) thanks for this video. Went with milky white too. and I’m beyond excited. Can’t wait until Q1 next year. Praying for minimal delays on this. If I could get my hands on those Sakura key caps. I don’t even care that I’m copying. That’s just the exact vibe I’m looking for.
I joined the wait for the keyboard the day it was announced. It started out pretty small, not a lot of people knew of it. I'm glad it finally got the attention it deserves and although I unfortunately can't buy it, I hope everyone who does enjoys it.
HI Scott. Great video as always, and great intro. I just thought it was always going to be a "jay-ris", so when your alter-ego came out with the jPhone, I was like "Of course that's why it has a terrible name!" I'm also glad that the QK65 still reigns as a top entry-level keeb. More than anything, I love the fact that it's forced more companies to innovate in this space.
On an unrelated note, I was wondering how possible it would be to make a playlist with the videos where you go into sound science. I find myself often referring to them and recommending them for people who want a certain sound, but I struggle to remember which videos they showed up in. I'd love to tell people "Check out this playlist" to help them learn how the various components contribute to overall sound profile.
Thanks as always!
Oh man I was literally about to comment asking if you’d check out the JRIS65, and yet here we are!! My mind was read before I even knew it 😂😂😂 Great review!
It really feels good to be in the hobby as it expands. Just bought a ~100$ TKL cnc aluminum kit with gasket mounts and more.
Now saving up for a 65/67 layout in the future, hope the trend continues!
Whats the board?
Definitely will! Competition is always good!
@@ItzWolfykitten it’s called the T87 keyboard kit, it went into a groupbuy in my country’s keyboard community so idk if its info is even known in other countries
@@JakeTran141 alr thanks!
Vega: exists. Irislab: „take notes, take notes!“
FAJITAS MADE ME DOUBLE TAKE HAHAHA! Love the content as always thank you scott!
Haha yup! Thanks for watching!
I'm ready to build my first mechanical keyboard and doing very deep dive into the world of custom mechanical keyboards over the last two weeks. The first sound test you did on this board with all of the foam and plates included sounded the best that I've heard so far. The only thing is I need a 10 key. What would you recommendation be for the closest thing to this board with a full size build? I think I'm definitely going to go with the ink black switches but I'm not sure which full size board to try to build and source
Oh man, the QK65 is my fav keyboard of all time but I didn't get a chance to buy one back then and can't find any now - thanks for posting about some alternatives to keep an eye out for! 🙂
I have no idea why you put the quadratic formula there but for some reason it cracked me up
Exactly for that reason. Lol
@@Keybored I thought that was hysterical lmao. The way you're just frantically scribbling it down is so good
@@Pandered haha thanks! Hope I didn't drag it out too long. I wasn't even going to do an intro for this one, but how they got to Jris... Just so random
Keybored really do be making the deepest thoccs possible
JYRIS. JIRIS. JAYRIS. Man, when they found they could not call it the Iris, they should have gone with Osiris.
I've been following this board for the first previews they've posted of it. I'm definitely wanting to pick this one up, and this review was super helpful too. Considering how limited it is, I really hope I can get my hands on one before they sell out.
Oh, I get it now. It's read as vaheenas. Thanks, keybored!
I am seriously obsest with this keyboard!! Great video!
The quadratic formula doesn’t scare me but physics does
Hahaha. Glad it doesn't!
I’ve been keeping an eye on this board for about 4-5 months now. I need it
as someone from Greece, that "gyros" pronunciation. On point
Would you be able to do a tutorial on how you tune your stabilizers so perfectly? I've been at the hobby for about six months now, and have a keyboard that I am very satisfied with (except for the stabilizers, which no matter what I do, I can never seem to fix).
I am so glad that I waited for another keeb to come out after the qk65 gb ended
There are so many now! So much good competition!
That plateless sound really tickled my elmo
Been waiting for this review, nice!
Hope it helps!
Seeing flex cuts in PCBs scared me with a image of me smashing the spacebar so hard the PCB breaks
Haha it's flexy. But that shouldn't break it
Another great video. Going to start saying fajitas the way you did in the beginning of the video.
Been wanting to try osume keycaps. Love little ghost
I really love their color schemes!
THOSE KEYCAPS
I'M DEAD THOSE ARE SO FUCKING CUTE
I got my QK65 last month and I don't think I'm happy with it. typing feel is very stiff, I don't like it. so I sell it after 2 weeks. then I saw and tried Jris with plateless build, I fell in love. I personally prefer Jris over QK.
oh Scott is right about they feels the same if you build with full foam and plate. but it would drastically changed if you build it without plate.
btw nice video as always Scott!
Yup! The plateless is something else!
Just saw Alexoto's twitch build of this. Skipped to the end and he said something about force breaking the Jris65. Did you feel like there was case ping or mounting issues? Also, thanks for always being active in RUclips replies! 😀
The only thing missing is split spacebar support. It is awesome to see more and more pcbs with different layout support especially hotswap, but still not too many with split spacebar. Why is that? Split spacebar is great and very functional.
Hmm no idea lol. They split everything else
Will it be possible in the future to have a 75% keyboard that sounds like the QK65 for a price that isn't that far away from the QK65? 😊
QK75
@@hexa3171 I GB already gone black color weight gold mirror I've been waiting for a long time not to miss it ahahahaha
They could've retained the Iris name by switching the second I to a Y, but I realized that might involve conflict as well.
YRIS would look ugly. they shoulda just kept the name and said f it lol
@@onion_____ He said the second I, meaning Irys
Great video as per usual! I’m interested to know your thoughts on this.
For someone that already has a QK65, would there be any point in getting the Jris65 other than for a different look?
Thank you in advance! 😄
+1 on this but i feel like it might be better to pass it and get the next one that has a more substantial upgrade.
Would love to hear scott's input on this.
That is really worthy opponent. And interesting selling point with that pcb, but yeah since they are not big guys its gonna be very limited
in mice we remove weight and in keyboards we add it
:) have to balance it out somehow
I just brought the link65 and my wallet is still recovering but the sound and price of this board is very tempting. Thanks for another great video!
Ooooh! Link a very different board! One of my favorites right now
I don't even care about the name JRIS tbh. The board looks and sounds too good to pass up, and I could easily convince myself or others that the lettering on the weight does indeed say "Iris" anyway. It should be shipping soon :) can't wait!
So excited for this board! going to have to try it out
It's a good board! Looks great too!
I’m very intrigued by the boards I’m seeing now coming out with a pcb gasket mounted strategy! The plateless build definitely interests me! I’ve got a DZ60 Flex PCB that I’ve gummy o ring mounted in a tofu with a janky home cut pc half plate, and it is bouncy!! Having something like this you could just buy and use sounds great! If my wallet wasn’t still recovering from the bubble 75 and mode sonnet, I’d definitely jump on this!!
Bubble 75 and mode sonnet both great boards! You're set lol
@@Keybored Yes, absolutely zero room to complain! Been enjoying modding the Bubble, and stoked for the Sonnet to hopefully arrive in the next couple months!
the beginning was so funny LOL 😆🤣🤣
I love these keyboards but they’re all group buys that I missed! 😢
I know that super flexible plateless build feel. Pretty cool at first but super annoying later on.
Imma go with brass plate since most of my board are fr4 already.
I prefer the look of this over the qk65
Really like the typing sound. But I’m addicted to the ikk68 layout bottom 3 keys on both side of the spacebar and a key next to the right shift for an extra layer my second Fn key.. I think that’s the best layout for me..that’s why I bought 2 ikkie’s let’s hope they don’t make to manny ikkies haha
recomendation for a 65% alluminium case+hotswap+bluetooth for use on a tab s8
That intro actually made me laugh.
Yo keybored, I am trying to build a thocky board, I have the keycaps and board all sorted but I am not sure which switch I should use. Do u think u could make a switch comparison for every switch you have reviewed. I can imagine this would help a lot of people
Does anybody know when the group buy for the iphone starts????
Sometime this month I think. Hope it's a unlimited gb
I AM HERE!
With some new jwick v2s
Congrats! Dem jwicks always nice
I like the overall vibe of the QK65 more. The only thing I don't like about the QK65 is the lack of a daughterboard. But I think this is great since the QK65 is so popular it's constantly sold out, and some people have to sit around waiting for the next round. So if somebody could make a board like this with endless in-stock inventory, that'll just replace the QK65.
Enter………..Mode Envoy!
I actually sold my qk65 because it was too stiff. Was wondering if you think the foam you had in the board makes it a stiffer experience altogether. I was thinking a pom plate with no plate foam inside would actually be way bouncier than the qk65. Also was thinking that even if I did go plateless, the weird jelly like feeling could be mitigated with a piece of foam right under the flex cuts so it could be soft but not too jelly like
*Afaik
The Trio 75 by Percent Studio is the first manu to include tape mod with the board.
Love the video! But I don't understand, what is the difference between Anodized Alu Weight and PVD Mirror Stainless steel Weight? I know you said the PVD weight is heavier, but does it affect the sound or feel? I really want to get a good keyboard with a small budget but even this is a bit expensive for me, so I'm trying to save as much money as I can, so I hope you can help me figure out which weight to pick :)
The ano aluminum will be much lighter than the stainless. Overall, higher the weight, less resonance from the key press energy, and heavier objects tend to have a lower frequency!
@@Keybored Thanks, but if I choose alu weight will it still sound good?
@@adam.6480 it will probably sound hollow and pingy
@@TyrellW Thank you!
Too late.. Literally JUST got the AM65 Less just before I saw this video. Spent a bloody bomb
I think that’s the best sounding keyboard I’ve heard on RUclips
Haha glad it was good!
I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE 😎😎😎
:) hope it doesn't disappoint!
What’s with the “ding” noise from the spacebar?
I’ve never heard a spacebar make that sound before
From the plate less build? Might be due to how flexy it is
@@Keybored no it was apparent on all builds, it sounds like a tiny metal hammer is the closest comparison 😂
Will you ever do a plated build with PE foam? In my opinion PE foam sounds boring so I wanted to hear what it sounds like without foam
uuhhh dawg it be POPPIN ooiii
if I get it I'm going to try the Oil King Switches as you did for the qk65 :D
Oil kings are good!
the plateless sound is amazing
It Def sounds more classic vs the foam build!
A couple weeks ago you said you're switching to owlstabs full time because they don't need holee mod. Are owlstabs easier to mod than durock?
Between this and win x98, which one should I go for as my first mech? Need advise please...
Thanks!
Do you recommend the FR4 Plate or the POM one? I'm really interested
Very confused about the name but it looks very yummy
I too am confused hahha
Scott, what tubs are those behind you that you are using to store the switches? Pls drop the link if possible too. Tia!
They're ikea skadis peg board organizers!
This thing packs a punch with specs, I wonder how they will cut corners to keep costs down. Very interested in purchasing this board and the class80, my poor wallet :(
Will you ever make a discord community, Scott?
I do have one :) check out the description!
Oh heck yeah I’ve been waiting for this!
Can you even get the QK65 anymore? This would be a great alterative
And then here comes a new challenger - Ghost 65😏
And many more after lol
looks like im getting this and the frog mini
Great video!
Thank you so much!
how would you compare this to a mode65 i know their prices are different but imagine if they were the same price, which would you recommend to the consumer base?
now can we pls get a 75% form factor equilvalent to this peepopray
Haha a lot of 65%
The designer of this board said on geekhack that they're likely making a 75% next!
Can you review the NuPhy Tes68 (it’s a $20 budget keyboard)
I'm assuming the group buy will start in mid-late September or did they give you a specific date for when it starts?
It'll start soonish from what I know!
Intresting how the 65% scene is getting all the crazy boards.
I know right! The competition firing up!
@@Keybored can wait for a budget 65 board thats so flexy is folds in half
JRIS65 vs ZOOM65 vs QK65, which one would you recommend?🧐
that intro was so corny, liked and subscribed.
Hahaha glad it was fun!
🎶 x equals negative b plus or minus square root…🎶
IRIS 65 would’ve been a sick name
That's cool and all, but where can I actually get it.
Is there anything as good as this or the QK65 that's in stock? These group buys and limited buys are so difficult for someone to purchase in a 3rd world country.
Man, the plateless build almost sounds like it was built with mx blacks lmao
Where did the wrist support board come from?
omg it's the science guy!
Haha welcome!
They rounded those edges a little too hard
1:30 They could have gone with Isis65 🤷🏻♂️
but million dollar question is . how and where to buy this ?
Or looks nice. However, as Scott said the name somewhat kills the board and also the cursive logo doesn't help at all. If they can only go back and fix the name as well as the logo to none cursive then and only then I might consider getting one in addition to my QK65
Lol the Jris... What is that
@@Keybored seriously who want to buy a LY bag, Chamel shoe, Mercedes Penz car? Like you are telling everyone "Look I am fake and I am not afraid to admit it" :)
“Because the DBA Keebio holds the trademark of IRIS, we don't want to risk infringement and respect the property rights of others, so we rename the IRIS65 to JRIS65.” their comment regarding the name on its Geekhack IC
@@arethas6537 they need to just choose another name rather than making up a name. Maybe Crystal or Iridium or Prism....something more easier to pronounce. Even Jarvis is better than Jiris. Jiris is just gibberish.
Have you done any stabilizer mod on this board?
