Thank you for making this hobby fun and easy to understand. You're not a gatekeeper or snobby. I feel like a lot of people sit in the under $200 market, especially when the hobby grew so much when covid hit and there's been plenty of innovation in the under $200 space. That being said.. higround and 100 thieves have no business making a keyboard
Watching someone be genuinely excited about a thing is a great way to become excited about a thing. I literally never think about my typing experience AT ALL but every time I open a video on this channel I go "Oh huh I should get a custom keyboard"
This video made my day i love how your video ideas and editing becomes better with each video you make, thank you glarses, keep up the good work and editing.
I know nothing of the technical language and yet I’m so captivated by the way he goes through all the different options and how he genuinely feels about design decisions…
This is the first video I’ve ever seen from your channel because it just randomly showed up on my recommendations for some reason. Probably because I’m looking up videos on parts to get for my very first PC build. All I’m going to say is I’ve never heard of you before but this video was entertaining lol, so I’ll have to check out your other videos.
@ just get 3 stream deck XLs and reprogram them to different keys (or 2 if you like compact keyboards)

@@mootwo_ I see you and I agree but it can't be used as an actual keyboard, therefore not what the OP was asking for. That said, the Optimus Maximus is a terrible keyboard due to key size variance and same-sized oled panel for every key, switch choice and implementation, terrible glare from the keycap domes, etc.
my $30 ahh brown switch keyboard sounds just like this. Literally unlubed, untrimmed, and everything in it is basically plastic not to mention the floating keys clearly not helping the acoustic. 10% the price, 78 keys with PBT double-shot keycaps, same experience (well the spring can be audible if your head is right next to it but ain't no people put their head next to the keyboard when using it). Don't get rob.
very first thing i noticed was the lack of legends on the keys. i know the layout of the letters by heart, but i often forget the precise location of things like the windows key, the ctrl buttons, which symbols correlate to which numbers, etc. like 😭 may as well just frame the keyboard and mount it on your wall
Surprisingly doesn't take the cake for most overpriced for quality keyboard. Drop ALT/CTRL (when it used to be $200-250 USD) takes the crown in that category by a mile. GREATLY regret buying it several years ago as a newbie mech keeb buyer and getting a shiny polished turd.
As someone who bought the drop alt and later sold it on to another Newb, I don't regret it at all. It helped me get into the hobby and find my Niche. It also reminded me that I never want to use an RGB board ever again. xD
Glad to see someone finally say what needed to be said but with that can you do a review of the HiGrounds Titan Heart switches? I have actually heard pretty good things about these switches they made in collaboration with TTC.
that is otherworldly levels of expensive! I hope for the sake of those interested, they sell the keycaps separate. I know it’s a different market, but $300 could cover such a nice custom 65% (e.g. mode envoy, bakeneko65, many of the recent entry level 65s from WS, QK, IrisLabs).
Love how everywhere but the US spells it as "Aluminium". America just always has to try and go out of its way to be different. (Before anybody says anything, I live in the US.)
you should make an ink keyboard with all of the letters from the English alphabet so when you type you have to have a piece of paper under the keyboard
Thanks for this review. I already have 2 KB I really like. An they are both $120 plus. BUT... I like everyone else thought that the design on this was amazing an the hype up of the "quality" made me really want it. Now I will just be sticking with what I already have. 🎉
There is only one Keyboard for me... the Microsoft 4000. It's cheap, but there's also nothing else like it and it's reliable When I built my first PC back in 2007 I used the only extra keyboard we had since it was a super budget build, it was one of these. I'm on my 5th or 6th one now, I kinda hate regular keyboards. I hope they never stop making these things! I also wish there were more Kayboards to choose from with this form factor- every ergo keyboard is different and they all feel awkward as a result.
Glarses makes me think i know what he's talking about regarding things i wouldnt usually give the slightest of shits about. He's the perfect content creator.
I found your channel today and I cant stop watching your videos. I come to you today with a video recommendation: typewriter style keyboard from The PNK Stuff. I'm dying to see the inside of one of those.
"Aluminum is preferred in North America, whereas Aluminium is the spelling preferred in the United Kingdom and most other English-speaking nations" says google
You know glarses is going to run a joke to the ground as soon as he makes any kind of effort into making it. Especially if he's putting water into his eyes. We all know his eyes dried out after watching all them tiktoks. There's nothing in there anymore. Nothing but a promise of pain. A premonition of doom. Death itself.

perfect for people you dont like 😈

As someone who was born with X ray vision for specifically PPT plastic. I am happy to see a keyboard that finally accommodates me

You should improve the keyboard with a variation of your own and get someone to draw what an animated version of you would look like for the keycaps

Another year, another banger made my glarses.
Here to give my own personal pet peeve about these keyboards: Good luck figuring out if your Caps Lock is on when you use all the LEDs.
Your editing and your comedy are so top-notch! I only have the most basic understanding of mechanical keyboards, but I adore watching your videos!
