10 years into the future: We did it guys, we created a keyboard that has a screen and can even play games. Wait... this looks a bit like a lapto-
oh no
you stole my comment
Honestly, i'll take a laptop with a mechanical keyboard any day
@@BlazerJake squashy boy made a MacBook with a mechanical keyboard
asus: we did it guys, we created a laptop that has a keyboard and has a screen on the keyboard. Wait...laptops already have-
Personally, as a video editor, I think that screen will be really good for putting the timeline on the bottom, controlling with touch and have a full preview on my main monitor. Also, music control could work too :)
...now you've got me thinking about how handy it would be for putting brush/tool options for art software. It would be so good omg 🥺 💕
Same, as an audio engineer I would love to have my console on that touchscreen :)
Nah bruh that timeline be tiny af
@@Scotia__ having to look down at the keyboard every time you want to change brush setting's will ruin your neck at the end of a long work day.
Ye ur listening to music and then your haring CLICKY SOUNDS CLICKY SOUND CLICKY (aka the blue switch 🤣)
Considering it is a touchscreen, I think this could possibly be useful for streamers who want to have stream tools/chat/soundboard up while live
If you're gaming, I wanna say that's a bad idea. If you touch the screen, it works like alt tabing out of the window, so it won't work because when you touch it, the main screen won't receive input.
Artists and editors might also like it to quickly access other programs. It’s a cool idea I kinda want one!
Why not just use two monitors? This keyboard nearly costs the same as my lg 1440p monitor
@@TheGamingMexican69 We can setit up
@@Real_Rainway let me know how I bought it and haven't figured out how to prevent the main page from changing
In case anyone is wondering, that single USB-C cable is likely meant for devices that support DisplayPort Alt Mode over USB-C. You can find it more commonly on laptops, but it's something you'll have to check if your motherboard or laptop supports it. It's not super common and usually just on higher end laptops unfortunately. Also, my favorite pasta are those corkscrew ones that come in three colors
Tri-color rotini. Very nice.
@@grimfang4 Let's see Paul Allen's pasta
It's called thunderbolt port. It's easy to identify. If you see a lightning sign above the USB-C port on your laptop/motherboard then you can plug in to that. But I rather use the port on laptops for power delivery so you don't have to carry a lot of wires when travelling
I did everything I could to try and get this to work on my desktop with Z790 Maximus(2 Thunderbolts) I couldn't get it to work. I had to just use the other cable with the HDMI and usb split.
I could see this keyboard being really useful for digital artists. You could have stuff like Photoshop menus setup on the keyboard display within easy reach with the touchscreen. Basically any application that uses a lot of floating menus would make good use of this keyboard. It's still overpriced but it does have utility.
Funnily enough, we were recently talking about using a small bonus screen in a speedrunning discord, mainly to display notes and maybe livesplit. Essentially we found a cheapish (about 60 bucks) small rectangular monitor that's intended for use with a raspberry pi, but has an HDMI port, so it works perfectly well with a normal PC. It does not have a case, but that's about 10 bucks in filament and a day of 3D printing. This way you get to keep a decent keyboard and have a small monitor that can be actually moved around.
Would you be willing to share more exactly which monitor you used?
@@RobertJBareIII Sorry, I have notifications for replies turned off, we went off of the tutorial/expose at 0PW3goYAbQI (yt code), but that seems to be out of stock atm, at least at the price back then. But basically as long as it takes HDMI input and you can power it (for us preferably through USB) it should work with win or linux as an extended screen.
I have a laptop like this. It's been amazing for productivity. I even produce music on the side and put a virtual piano on that screen. I love this form factor, good to know there's a desktop/modular solution too.
This might be useful in a server room to connect directly to a server computer. It will save space.
Now that’s a great application for trouble shooting 👍
Gonna build my first custom keyboard soon. Your videos are really inspiring and helpful, and I can’t wait for this one.
same well not soon when the QK75 is delivered lol
Good luck 😊
Same I want the acr75 pro on Akko 😂
I’m building my first in few few day as well🤣
I couldn’t agree more
DUDE, IM DOING THE QK75 TO
If you run Linux with KDE plasma you could use it as a cool command center. Like Plasma does it's taskbar stuff throught mini apps you can drag in and out, so u could just move a lot of usefull mini apps to the bottom screen (time, some sensor viewer stuff, notes etc)
Also it'd be pretty neat for creative applications, coding etc. just having a folder or terminal or stuff like that down there might be pretty neat
Yeah. I immediately thought of using a dedicated bar with app launchers and system monitors, plus a terminal.
The screen looks perfect for terminal output. (Text-based commands). I could also see that being used for very quick actions or even viewing the status of something like task manager's hardware tab
VScode anyone
At this point, it's probably a better idea to try to hunt down a mini monitor (for PC thermal monitoring, or for Raspberry Pi stuff) and use that instead, which I've considered doing. As for what I'd use it for, I think notes are a great application, also maybe a daily quote for inspiration or anything you need to reference frequently.
I'm surprised I recognized those TTC Gold Pinks!
I can definitely see a screen keyboard being handy for gaming! When I do FFXIV raiding I'll draw strats on my desk whiteboard, but this would work better than that (in theory) since I would be able to swap strats in a pinch.
But that would be way further down the line, when it would be a more HQ build and/or lower price-point, and thus might work better than a tablet lol!
i have no idea what FFXIV raiding is but im gonna like your comment anyway
@@anotherrandomchannel5206 lol, I appreciate it!
For anyone wanting to know, it's just an MMORPG with (an amazing narrarive and phenomenal world-building & characters) optional content that are increasingly difficult boss fights for a team of 8 players.
In FFXIV the boss fights follow a timeline for mechanics (essentially just the 'moves' the boss uses) and the party of 8 need to react to it all appropriately. It's very much like a dance you need to memorize the steps to, and each role has their own unique things to focus on.
Usually there will be multiple patterns that can happen, forcing people to memorize a few different ways to solve the mechanic without dying.
The tiers of difficulty are more and more punishing if a single person makes a mistake, often killing the whole party and forcing you to start the (~9-13 minute) fight over again.
TL;DR = challenging boss fights for a group of 8 people, where they memorize the steps & puzzles as they try to kill the boss.
I started used my desk whiteboard during a particular boss fight (P4S for those familiar), since I had trouble remembering which path to run when I was randomly assigned the red one instead of blue lol
If I went the wrong way the person I was tethered to would take a lot of damage, and then things would explode and kill the party.
For the most recent set of 4 Savage-tier fights I relied on my second monitor a lot, but a little keyboard monitor would have been infinitely more convenient 😅
Ayyyeee ffxiv player here too! I’m on cactuar!!
it would be IDEAL for keeping my rotation on haha (I'm so bad at doing my pld rotation correctly T.T)
@@Hobby_Collector oh yeah for sure it would be so nice. I’m not a very seasoned player, so switching from one class to another is so hard. Especially after I feel like I’m getting the hang of one class, then play another for a little and completely forget how to do the first one😂😂
“i wouldn’t give up an arm AND a leg for this, that’s like two things i use to walk”
i see you get around everywhere on all fours
hippos walk on all fours, duh
The keyboard looks pretty good. I think I could find something to put the screen to good use. There is also a Laptop with this configuration; I saw it the other day in a store: ZenBook Pro 14 Duo. Thank you for the video! Cool presentation and great mod as always. Huge sound difference. 👍🏼
The switches are ttc golden pinks, I use them with 55g dual stage springs and it is actually really nice
5:29 love the urban rescue ranch! Big Ounce is the best!
I think that screen would be great for Spotify or any music player.
Thanks for the content Hipyo.
i work in a property management office doing paperwork, one thing that this could be used for is multitasking better, because when i work the phones im basicly doing 2 peoples jobs, and need to constantly switch what im working on, it would be nice to be able to switch worksets quickly, like swap them between the 2 main monitors and this one so i dont forget what i was doing when we get swamped with calls
also could be good for spreadsheets or a calculator, having your caculator above your numpad just feels right
currently using a keychron k10 with silent pink switches, works well, only issue is its hollow because havent put anything inside it yet
I believe those switches are the TTC gold pink linears
As a programmer, being able to put a terminal (for running compilers) in the small screen while writing code on the primary screen might be nice-at least if I was limited to a 1080p monitor. This thing honestly seems like a Linux user’s toy to me. Haha
I could see this being a really useful touch interface for DAWs and Creative applications. I'm imagining channel sliders in protools or tool switchers in Photoshop & Lightroom.
Just buy a mini monitor. And a separate mechanical keyboard. You will spend half or less and have way more freedom on monitor placement
@@ghost-user559 That's fair, but I was mostly speaking to the use case for this product specifically, not if it was the most cost effective. Would be easier to set up for laptop users, but at that point you really would need to value the form factor.
It is definitely a good machine for some who do light typing work. Good keyboard, less screen, lightweight and long-range battery.
you could use it for twitch chat, or other stream stuff. I imagine it would be pretty good for like hotkeys and macros and the like. I can see that being a good use case or for having your music software on so you could pause and swap songs while you're doing productivity stuff, or use it as a mixing station while using music creation software. I can imagine there's a lot of neat things you could do with it especially if your primary work station is a laptop or if you only have on monitor as opposed to a dual monitor set up.
I had this keyboard for 2 weeks,
I used it alot for work, was able to keep my work chat and messages on the screen
However because the screen angle is not adjustable, I always had to crane my neck a bit to read anything or see what I am typing.
I always get really nervous when you cover PCBs in press n seal. There are so many better, safer ways to wrap or cover a PCB with better sound profile and much safer operation overall. I used scotch 33+ electrician tape (two layers) on the back of my pcb, and it's rubbery texture helps aton with sound. Also, obviously, electrician tape is much much safer to use on static sensitive electronics. And since scotch 33+ is actual good tape, the glue is not gonna turn into goo after 2 or so years of being untouched. Can really recommend it!
Bad tape, 10 rolls for $4.98. Good Tape, $5.35 a roll. Buy the good tape! (you already know this, but I'm hoping to change the opinions of electrical tape worldwide by targeting the budget saving group, to scream, buy the good tape -- It's not even the same product as the bad tape).
If you’re going to use this method, you should really let the plastic rest a while in the air after taking it off the roll. Anytime you separate two insulators, it can generate thousands of volts that just sit there.
Also, third on 3M electrical tape. I’ve gotten to where I throw away anything else I see.
it reminds me of the old style word processors from back in the day. So I think it would be good if you are a writer. Sounded nice at the end.
I would be intrigued by a K3 Review. Since that at least has an adjustable screen, making it WAY MORE USEFUL.
A came to see the K3 as well.
That keyboard with a screen like that looks like a mighty fine way to get a messed up neck.
Great improvements to the board on your end. I’ve been slowly getting more and more interested in building boards after watching your videos. Nice Thocc
I’m confused I thought we had some foreshadowing of an electrical shock bricking this keyboard?
Weren't you paying attention? It was VERY explicitly stated that it was NOT foreshadowing. Honestly!
@@samsowden when has Hipyo ever written something on screen without Sarcastic undertones. Honestly!
Hipyo you did me a supreme injustice by not cutting in the scene from spunchbob (hehe) where squidward is yelling “FUUUUTUUURE” over and over again. Plus you made me want this damn thing lol
11:18 a fish circling with funkytown in the background
You can disable the windows taskbar on other monitors to give yourself a few more pixels to work with.
This is a certified Hood classic
They make these exact screens for a small monitor option for servers. You can buy them on Amazon for really cheap. I’d go that route before mounting it to my keyboard.
Honestly see a lot of use for it, because I'm in school to become a software engineer it could come in very handy. cool video very much enjoyed.
Since it's a touch screen, I think this could be amazing for flight/space sims like Elite Dangerous. There are so many buttons that you don't use on a regular basis that are a pain to get to through menus. You could have a custom button layout on the screen that could even change with flight modes. It depends if you could run the game on your main monitor and something else on this secondary monitor and if that program could talk to the game (something like this probably already exists).
Also, I wouldn't worry about getting hurt by caps on a board like that. Anything out in the open on that board is probably going to be like 5V or 12V and the caps will be small. This isn't a CRT with hundreds of volts on it even when it's off.
The cold cathode tube lcd backlights used to run at hundreds of volts, and while LED backlights _can,_ it probably doesn’t.
Ooh, that's an idea. Touch screen customizable controls. I could see that.
Hipyo, have you considered pressing F11 to hide the top bar and making the bottom bar disappear? It's taking up at least 10% of the limited horizontal space.
productivity plugins would fill that screen, and since it seems to be touchscreen it could even be used to map some macros on to it
Maybe you can put your stock tickers on the bottom screen?
Or chat during a stream.
Or OBS stuff.
Or Unit test results.
Or the build panel of your IDE.
I think it's a case by case basis. I edit the ocassional video, do a lot of 3d work and 2d illustration and especially for 2D work and video editing I much prefer having the timeline, and a few controls separated so if I had this kb I'd just dock them to that screen (but honestly just getting a custom board for that works better. As for discord, not sure I'm not really in communities where gifs are posted that often. I already have the kamvas as a secondary for quick edits on illustrations and I just put my discord there as well so wouldn't hurt to have it on this kb's screen.
The major problem is that for me I tilt my kb in all sorts of angles lol. I also game quite frequently and I can actually see this square of a beast taking up way too much uneeded space when I can just buy a seperate mini screen for that purpose. So unfortunately I really just see it as a gimmick.
Some user case scenarious i was thinking about how to use the screen: to put my calendar meetings from outlook on a very busy day, to put a frequently used excel which i open many many times a day to provide some info from it, to put my spotify playlist, for twich during the work ( i use to follow the game with my mind, i ussualy follow strategy games) etc
I don’t think it’s meant to be used just with that little screen, but used in addition to the main screen. Like for example, an artist can have the canvas on the large screen, and the keyboard screen will be used for like, swapping brushes and having the color wheel. Or for a game developer, the viewport will be on the bigger screen while the files and object properties on the keyboard.
I would use that screen for fallout 4 companion app while playing fallout 4 on pc. Or for walkthroughs for games so I don't have to switch windows while playing. Doing a typing game on there would be nice too.
Personally would use this for keeping time and date plus scheduling using a third party widget app like rainmeter. also aesthetics, very cool.
Favorite pasta shape is spirals. As for what I’d use they mini screen for, I’d mostly use it for toolbars in drawing or video editing apps, and probably also for Discord while I’m gaming on my main screen.
Hipyo: Today I'm making a keyboard with a screen
Laptops:👁👄👁
You can play League of Legends on it. League rewards narrower screens because you can see more of Summoner's Rift on it.
I do custom displays. That display is about $125 with the digitizer and control board. And that's without the bulk discount.
This is a $60 board with a $75 display strapped to it, and I might have to make one.
I'd keep my animation timeline and tools for Maya on that screen or the Unreal Content browser. Could be good for a kanban board too
I think some use cases could be music programs, chat for twitch or discord, alerts for streaming and such, stats like task manager/ valorant tracker type beat, and also like music programs where there are many menus that you can have open. Also alternatively using the extra screen to lurk in friend's streams on twitch/youtube (having 2 or more streams up in the aspect ratio)
I want it so bad, but I could never justify that price for the build quality. Also I like tactile switches. quiet or clicky doesnt really matter to me, but damn they need to be tactile. Otherwise, the keyboard just feels so wrong. Got a liner keyboard and had to return it next day because I just couldn't get used to that sudden bottom out.
But I also absolutely adore the old IBM Buckling Spring keyboards from my childhood.... So... I have a "type"
In pro tools you can put stuff like the transport and the cpu usage monitor down there, and while gaming you can put system info down there I guess
It's kinda neat and all I guess. But you could just get a portable monitor and put it infront of your keyboard. With some care you could find one that's similar size to your chassis so it matches and viola. Plus it'd be a normal aspect ration and in general much more useful.
I use a zenboom duo and having the half screen is great for emails and calendar.
i think it would be cool for fl studio so you could put the mixer on your keyboard
I actually really like the stock sound, but I use a ReDragon with MX Blues at work, and my custom is a GMMK Modular with Box Jades. I'm a bit biased.
Personally, Gniocchi is fantastic, closest you can get to pre-packaged dumpings. Unpopular, but I also like bowtie for wierd stuff like bacon-ranch pasta salad type stuff.
0:59 probably my favorite Hipyo moment ever
For whatever work you need a touchscreen for but still want to hook your system up to a huge monitor, this will work wonders. Also, digital artists, musicians, video editors should fine some good uses for the screen.
I could see this as a more freeform macropad for video editing, photoshop, 3D modeling, engineering, video game inventory, etc
good video. Thanks for the information. It should have a standalone mode with only a simple text editor. Would be a digital typewriter. But I guess you can place your macro shortcuts for streaming or video editing. It can be useful.
your voice reminds me of my old science teacher, monotone and can easily fall asleep too
My favorite type of pasta is definitely Bucatini, they are like spaghetti but hollow, which gives them a really soft feeling to the chew, and they're still as long and glorious as spaghetti.
I think for general use case? custom software with touch macros, or to be able to adjust your music on the fly, or a lot of things that wouldn't realistically take a lot of space but is nice to have at your fingertips (pun intended)
This is good for Spotify or a script you read when doing the voiceover
I feel like for streamers, obs would be a good program to throw on that monitor, to free up other monitors for other things
So I would never get it the way it is now. If they added a hinge mechanism for the screen so you could change it I might consider it. But as it is now that would get so unconfortable. As for use cases i imagine the same thing the second screen on the asus duo is used for. Timelines, document, chat, color grading etc.
Would easily use the screen for like nerdy hardware monitoring, or like a shortcut touch screen, or maybe make use of the touch screen for sliders or other adjustments when editing video or photos... maaaaybe use it for spotify while playing a game...
Use cases:
Video editors can have the timeline in the screen
Spotify
Discord
You could have some fl studio stuff down there
Idk
I love how you ask us to stay for the sound test like that isn't what I'm here for XD
I'd use it for my mixer screen while I make music. a good second use is for a music player.
i could see using this to manage obs without having an additional monitor, really cool :)
i would use this as a home for dynamic macroing, sorta like a stream deck. it would be great to put some virtual knobs and sliders on there for music production, art, or video editing.
i wish the screen had an adjustable angle tho
2:02 Okay, for the record all square keyboards are still rectanglar
This has been a message from square gang
you can use it as touchscreen "stream deck" with program like Macrodeck
Could be used for streamer to look at there twitch chat or stream audio settings
You can play the most advertised mobile game in youtube, RAID SHADOW LEGENDS........LMAO
Looks cool, but I'd rather have a keyboard with a good touch pad where the numpad normally goes
If it would be possible to put the stream deck application on the screen, like the one you can get as an app on your phone, I think I'd do that
could be useful for a terminal/console, so long as you didn't want to inspect more than a few lines of output at a time
I would set this up to switch layouts, launch apps, macros, etc. But that is a nice thock.
Stovetop Mac n Cheese, no crockpot, no kraft, real pasta and real cheese, shot of milk, 1/4 stick of butter... perfection....
Oh ya... dope keyboard..damn im hungry now
This could be a great screen for a businessman who needs to have his calendar always on screen.
I can see some use cases in a server rack if you need quick access to the server's GUI, but you can prolly just use ssh commands
I'd put metrics on that screen: CPU/GPU usage, temps, memory - all that good jazz
msi afterburner and other hardware monitoring software would be great to keep on the screen. I could see it be usingful in many video games too, having quick info available like the map or whatever.
I would put MSI Afterburner and HW Monitor software on the screen. I like to monitor my hardware but I don't need it taking up space on my primary or secondary monitor.
you could take a look on the ultimate budget keyboard. The ciy tester 68 with ktt kang whites for example to stay consistent for the budget way
Definitely not something I could buy but as a writer I think it would be a good place to keep whatever document I’m currently working on so it’s a low distraction screen while the big monitor can have planning documents on it
Missed the mark by just a bit. A keyboard with a control bar like in some of the MacBooks would be a really cool idea given that they can get it to interface with Windows properly.
I can't touch type very well, so this would actually be pretty helpful for me. I don't think I'd spend $400 on it, even if I had the desk space, but it'd definitely use it if it was cheaper.
I’m a big fan of angel hair personally. I had some shrimp scampi a few weeks ago with it and it was delicious.
Keyboard of the future: Keyboard with screen
Laptop: Screen with key board
Everyone : There so different
I may put in there my clip studio color palette so I can choose the color I want by touching on it on the keyboard! Though I probably wouldn't buy it lol
Yup having the mixer on the screen from your DAW would be perfect if anyone makes music.
Not a terrible keyboard stock. But to much for me. Looks really good though.
I believe the screen should’ve been adjustable at this price, and maybe anti-glare. Couldn’t really tell from the vid how good the second concern is.
If it only screen mirrors your desktop then I really feel it’s not worth it. If it’s a separate mini pc that can run discord and other apps on its own that would be nice.
ITS GOLD FOR STREAMERS AND BROADCASTERS WDYM
Embed a CM4 and decent lipo battery. I expected it to be an all in one version of a Raspberry Pi 400 which really should have been designed with a mech keyboard in the first place.
OMG what's the purple city background, it's gorgeous
