It was amazing!
Nice video man
“Entry Level”
My wallet: oh hell no
I mean its not that expensive tbh
lmao
@Pander maybe not compared to other keyboards but its still a lot for people lmao
@Pander it is for people in third world countries
@@lyejingxuan9457 But not with shipping that costs 1/2 of keyboard price.
the less than 50 usd in my wallet: looks like im staying **phew**
Entry level keyboards are getting just as high quality as things that were considered to be unattainable for the same price range years ago. Anyone who is getting into keyboards and is not sure if they want to commit to the hobby, this is the board for you!
hey, im a beginner r/mk guy, i just wondered if you knew any iso hotswap kits except id80 and gmmk?
@@ahtiparviainen9077 Tons of GB, but if we’re talking about in stock it gets more difficult. I don’t exactly now what your budget is, but the mode80 goes for around $500 and is supposed to be shipped in January! Very nice keyboard it is
@@Definitely_Melnyx well, it's around 200, soo
Babe wake up, New Hamaji Neo keyboard review!
I’m gonna buy this *next time* if it doesn’t sell out so fast
It already did
Im going to wait for the hype to go down before trying to buy it
I’m talking about next time smh. I’m saying when it releases again in mid-December they will have more stock and I’m gonna try to buy it then
@@rhyno1351 when did it come in stock?
@@Instinct0425 yea it is gonna be hyped up cause of RUclips and will sell out in less that 1 minute
Hammy: NK65 is the BEST Entry-Level...
Bauer Lite: Hold my beer.
KBD67 Lite: Am I joke to you?
KBD67lite, Bauer Lite, Kara, insert entry level keyboard kit made from injection molded ABS.
"Entry level custom keyboard"
Me to my non-existent wallet: I'm sorry little one
"Entry Level" is kind of a misnomer. It's cheap for a custom, but any custom at all is potentially a normal person's endgame. There's not much more you could expect from a keyboard, maybe ESD protection and a different mounting style, and with TKC/Dixie/KBDFans/Rama going the NK65 route, you'll be able to get that for a decent price too,
@@aDistantLight its not one of the most expensive boards you could possibly buy. look at some keycult boards, those have insane prices. this isnt really that expensive compared to stock boards, around 160ish if you buy budget switches like gat yellows and budget $30 keycaps
@@aDistantLight lol if you only saw the other customs price tags
Also non-existent entry level keyboard
I’m gonna get this with gateron yellows (lubed with krytox 205g0 even though it’s my first custom keyboard) can someone recommend me keycaps that aren’t expensive. I also need tips on lubing I would really appreciate it if you helped me.
I think the kbd67lite will be a great contender for nk65. And with the screw in stabs, blocker on the bottom row in 67lite, it would be very awesome entry-level. It's just like a budget version of 67mkII..
But well, let's see how the actual 67lite turns out.
Great review I’m really thinking about getting this!
Seeing this just makes me more excited for when my NK_ Milkshake comes in. :)
Same, I can’t wait!
I think this would be even more insane if it came in a couple other uncommon layouts. Even if it were $50~ more I'd be down for it.
thanks for the review dude, was thinking about getting one, so might gotta cop for the holidays 👀 (that is if I can get one)
Good luck getting it. I’ve been looking for about a year....
@@zachwinston4251 Good luck to you to my guy! And sorry you haven’t got one yet, that would suck
@@zachwinston4251 Sign up for their newsletter, I think there is a drop coming soon! Their previous drop lasted for 30 minutes so it is definitely not as crazy as their initial few drops where they were gone in seconds! Good luck
Oh sweet, thanks guys
This thing will literally will sell out in minutes.
Bro that lift up for the typing test was really smoot and cool
I actually picked this up in the small Black Friday drop and I’m so excited to get it! :)
Dude your vids are legit. Learned a lot from you and your channel. Thank you!
If you are an expert in keyboards then you know how to make an excellent keyboard with an affordable one, that's what an expert does, being smart!
4:10 C3 Tangerine Switches Review coming up?????
I ordered the NK65 Milkshake and can't wait to get it. 190$ for a full complete sounds amazing!!!
What about KBD67 Lite? It supports screw in stabilizers and is gasket mounted
IMO, it’s probably gonna feel better to type on and maybe sound better, but I’m not sure if the ABS case gonna be as good as the NK65’s case. Only time will tell, I’m picking up a KBD67 lite either way!
@@Xenabeans already pre-ordered mine😌
I joined the Unlimited GB allready.
Same with portico, it has c3 equalz stabilizers in stock and gasket mount
@@Truvv I watched a video showcasing the c3 stabs and they sound so good unlubed, can only be godly when lubed.
I was never interested in keyboards but this video made me interested in keyboards
Nobody:
The spacebar: Come💃on🕺shake💃your🕺baby💃do🕺that💃conga🕺know💃you🕺cant💃control🕺yourself💃any🕺longer💃🕺💃🕺💃
loved the production on this video man.
Just wondering, is this channel gonna be a keyboard channel now?
Love it!
kbd67lite looks fire as well. hope you review it c:
Not exactly a beginner here. But you’re talking me into this. Why do you do that? 🥲
This is very cool. I never built or swap keys on keyboards but this just seems cool and fun to hotswap keyboards.
love the vids hamaji
Great video! Keep it up! I would mention the exact weight you get when you put it on a scale, as heft is something people can like or dislike and it would be really useful if you mentioned it.
Let’s go Hamaji!
U should check out the drop carina. It's really similar but they use a smoked acrylic case. It's also in the same price range as the NK 65. I just got mine in as well.
Looking forward to the complete build video! I just got an nk65ee and I'm kind of a noob when it comes to modding stabs and lubing switches.
Glorious GMMK full size with Glorious Panda switches is all I need. Nice keyboard though.
Hamaji you should build a luxury keeb
the stock stabs honestly don't sound that bad im pretty surprised.
Beautiful board. Sadly didn’t get it though due to the units being sold out right away when it came out.... at least I bought the KBD65 on Friday and I’m excited to build my next board
U mean the $99, NK65-Cracked Edition? But for real, this is coming from someone who just got into mech keebs and was very excited into getting my first ever "entry enthusiast build".
Keep in mind that there may be more micro cracks within the screw holes and it may lead to bigger cracks in the future. Mine only showed 1 crack near the top of the backspace key but after more than a month of using it daily, more cracks showed up in the corners and the hear the screw in the space-bar. While this is maybe covered in the acceptable quality standards of NovelKeys you are not guaranteed to have a perfect board in the long run. A lot of people in my local community who got the NK65 EE(2nd drop) has reported the same thing and its not an isolated case. I feel like NK really could have done a better QC. Just because they are offering one of the best budget products doesnt mean they could skimp out on their QC. With that said I actually have better hopes for the KBD67 Lite as they offer a plastic case and in proper use I cant see it cracking just as how polycarb does.
Hamaji has to be my favorite keyboard related RUclipsr
I would love to get this but they are currently sold out. Gonna just have to wait.
perfect timing got this arriving along with some ink blacks in like a week for my first custom :D edit: ITS EXACTLY WHAT I HOPED FOR
As always, Hamaji with a BANGER!
KBD67 Lite vs NK65 pleaseeeee. Btw awesome video
coming soon!
Thank you hamaji, very cool
Thanks to you hamaji, now im into keyboard stuff
I’m gonna get the gmmk pro
im sat here with a stock womier k66 with blacks but i love it so much lmao
I cant wait to get my smoke entry!! love the vid
Can you finish the damn TF2 series?
You should try the portico. The magic girl edition group buy ends in December 4th and the regular edition is coming soon.
oh very nice video, I am really wanting to get my hands on this
Good fucking luck trying to get one of those kits.
if they ever release an NK75 I'll hit that F5 button 24/7
I got my nk65 the same drop you did. My stabs weren't clipped although they were lubed.
7:08 i saw some hair on the stabilizers, do you have cats? if so how to handle cat's hair on my keeb? i don't seem to have a very good way of handling that since i have 2 cats, they don't walk on my table but there's always hair everywhere
I wish they had more of this in stock. I just dished $300+ on my first custom keyboard xD!
Curious to see how this fare against KBDFans KBD 67 Lite, plastic with gasket mount for $ 109
gasket? ye joking
I bought a gmmk white ice compact black Friday and I didnt got it yet, because I'm from Germany. I'm gonna get some switches and keycaps later on to get a 'custom' keycaps
Hello I started to be interested in this world of keyboards and I would like to know where I can learn or know about the subject more thoroughly
If only there's Bluetooth feature on it. Will get it without a doubt.
ayyy love your work man
I wish they make a 60% with one additional column at the left and side of the keyboard for macros.(total of 5 column of keys).
You can ctrl+backspace it cuts the whole word instead of hitting backspace again and again
I was able to buy the randomfrankp edition and it looks dope
I got the milkshake edition, can't wait im so hyped. Did u get linear or tactiles?
@@pixsled bought the linear version. They were selling linear or clicky versions of the keyboard
@@romansnyder20 nicee
I got my Nk_65 Entry in Smoke and it is a solid keyboards that sounds great, the only thing I didnt like was the stock plate mounted stabs, sounds really bad to me or just 'plate mounted stabs' aren't good as screw in's. But fixed that with genuine cherry plate stabs from Zeal with some 205G0.
Could i fit durock v2 stabs in this?
*posts this when kbd67 lite is releasing* also worth mentioning ikki 68 aurora and bauer lite when they come out
I want the frost one but that haven’t been restocked
They make all these changes but hasn’t made it pcb mount stab supported?
Well I'm gonna stay with prebuild and enjoy watching 🙃
Can you make a vid when you show all your keyboards?
All switches except for the spacebar sound great. The space bar is too hollow
You make this board harder to get!!!!
Hey, I have a question I was thinking of building one of these nk65 boards but are the keycaps compatible with the nk65 entry board and they look black are they full black or grey and black like they are in your video? I am kind of a newbie
It depends on what switches you want to use, not the case and pcb etc. What switches are u gonna use
@@pixsled Oh I already built one I used durock koalas
@@cooperbuck5021 nice
Yes the nut button sound test is back
Are you going to review the C3 Tangerines? I love to hear your review of them.
what keycaps are those? the ones in the thumbnail. great video btw!
may i ask when it is going to restock because i can't seem to get updates on when i twill be restocked
Can you take out the stock stabilizers and use screw in stabilizers or no?
If you can't use screw in stabilizers are there any stabilizers that you'd recommend to use? I got an n65k coming in February and I want to mod it.
Thank you
3:03 Thats what she said Imao
I got mine but I need better stabs. I happy I got it but I got a white pcb with purple case, it’s better than not having it but I’m slightly annoyed about that. I don’t mind though I don’t see it ever
The case is nice addition but that coiled cable is mech. I would better save 5 bucks for custom coiled instead
It's Also a great Entry Level to waiting years for a keyboard
I'm going to get it if it don't sell out like man but I'm going to try
Dude this keyboard is never in stock goddamn it... Imagine the millions and millions of dollars nk missed out on
Is their anything like this for a 75%? That would be perfect for me
my ass who saw the blurry ass picture a few days ago : huh a new video
Hi, I got the tangerine switches and used the same lube and films as you. However, my tangerine switches make a faint bubbly/rattle noise. I’m thinking it’s the films running against something. Can anyone help me?
haha jokes on you, I can’t get this because
*I’m fucking broke*
so what would be the best choice, this or the keychain k keyboards. cuz those are alu and the price would be the same cuz i would replace the switches
im new to custom keyboards, if you buy this keyboard is it only the case and pcb? or it includes the keycaps and switches?
the nk65 sounds rly nice but how does tall is the board in terms of dimensions? i like using a low board where i can rest my wrists on the table while typing or gaming.
I'm gathering switches etc for my first custom board and I was _planning_ on getting one of these; but honestly I don't see myself being able to actually nab one at all if they keep disappearing as soon as they restock :(
what brass plate would work for the NK65 entry edition?
AHHH if I had just watched this video just a week sooner I wouldn’t have spent a bunch of money on an albeit good but not premium Razer keyboard! $195 for a Razer board or even less for something better! Damn.
I just clicked on the link and all of the variants are out of stock hahahahahahaaa
Does the pcb have holes to support screw in stabs or is it plate mount only?
Hey Hamaji Neo I was wondering if you could do a wireless build
Tangies review soon?
Hey should i get the nullbits nibble or the discipline 65 in your opinion?
