Looks great but it doesn't really fit with HHKB. It's a bummer that they don't have the 1.5 backspace key. I mean they already have the 7u space bar, why cant add a 1.5 backspace..
@@SerendipityChannel91 finally got them after two weeks, so far im loving the red one although the blue one is great too, love the profile same height as my oems, looks gorgeous you should try them akko samurai keycaps
@@exfordovsky5315 be aware that this is akko sa profile not the regular SA which is a bit taller, with that being said the height difference is not that noticeable for me because i have a high profile drop ctrl and a wrist rest. Akko SA keycaps are more like OEMs with a better typing surface area imo. Typing and gaming for me was a good experience i have no complaints. I would definitely buy another ASA set.
Just what you've just honestly reviewed, I've tried this today, and just fell in love with these Grey and Black combo. Not too tall as SA's, and not too short as Cherry.. the sculpted and spherical profile and texture are quite amazing for a cheap set.
I just got this set myself. I love them! I like that Akko/Epomaker is making beautiful keyboards and keycaps accessible to everyone. I just found you while looking for info on making resin keycaps. Happy to sub to a female content creator in this male-dominated realm. :)
@@SerendipityChannel91 i purchased my set yesterday and waiting for it to arrive, this makes me feel a lot better about my decision haha! so excited to try it. thanks for your reply 💖
Yes, I would say the 75% layout gives you more room for your mouse and lets you have more comfortable posture compared to TKL or full-sized keyboards :)
Unpopular opinion here but PBT is superior material compare to ABS. I believe they are more shine/heat resistant. Also, ABS keycaps are more prone to discolor. Only reason they are still relevant is because of GMKs.
woww your review definitely helped me choose which keycaps i want for my gmmk pro :) also the quality of this video is amazing you'll blow up soonn im sure of it
Got the Midnight set and I LOVE THEM. Came from a GMK Red Samurai, which are great, but I love the sounds on these and the better spacebar make it worth it
I haven't heard of ASA before but I have to say that SA was the worst profile I've used. I felt like I was running a marathon on a floor of mattresses and I cried while typing. These are looking very very good though.
“Running a marathon on a floor of mattresses” it’s funny because it’s so true 😂 I feel the same way and that’s why I love these, they’re that perfect happy medium.
Haha, I understand where you're coming from. I bought an SA kit after using Cherry profile for a few years. Those things are _tall af_ 😀. I really had to get used to SA (like, I had to give it a couple of weeks) but I found them to be incredibly comfortable for typing. I am keen on trying ASA though.
Just ordered, really stoked to install them. Great video thanks
Awesome! Thank you so much, and let me know what you think of them :D
@@SerendipityChannel91 they were ok....i like the shape, the set i got was really beat up.
I just bought this set like 2 days ago and I got this video as a recommendation 🤨🧐
Hmm interesting lol
Yeah and i bought it for my id80 as well. 🤨 Someone spying on me?? Lmao
@@JSwag69 Google's algorithm, perhaps?
Thanks for reviewing this:)
No problem, thank you so much for commenting!
Right off the bat i can see the packaging is better than GMKs
Couldn't agree more!
Idek why gmk includes the screw holes when I ordered multiple sets with 0 screws when I open them…
Dang underrated im new and cant wait for u to reach 1k
Thank you so much! :D
No problem
Awesome content 👌
Thank you! 😄

Yeah, I didn't notice that until I was almost done filling it out :( It has a 7u spacebar so I assumed the set had a 1.5u backspace...
Just found your channel! Just ordered their new ASA set Samurai and I have no idea what ASA profile is, thank you!
Nice! Let me know how you like them! 😄
@@SerendipityChannel91 so i ordered them thru akko own website and its shipping from china, hopefully i get it soon.

Would you tell the difference between SA and cherry profiles? I am still thinking about which one should I buy

Cherry Profile user here.. Can't wait to try these ASA (Black Pink) tomorrow when it arrives :) Curious if I'll be happy (or not).. But let's see :)

That’s great, I’m glad you’re happy with it! I couldn’t agree more that it definitely doesn’t feel like a cheap set 😁

I’m so obsessed with this set, it’s so cute. The novelty keys are my favorites 😄 And thank you!
Really like the color combo! Please post more often :)
Thank you, I really like it, too! I definitely will :)
would you recommend ASA for someone who likes typing on OEM and doesn't like XDA or other uniform profiles? great video by the way!
Hey, thank you! From my experience, ASA is very similar to OEMs in terms of height, so I don’t think you’d have any problems adjusting.

no MAC modifiers?
Are they comfortable for gaming?

But a good abs is better than a bad pbt and vice versa.. You cant Just say: pbt is better than abs it doesnt work like that
When compared between "good" pbt against "good" abs.
@@sanghlee4514 good abs don't discolor.. Just like pbt
And how is that an unpopular opinion when it is the most popular opinion in thewhole Enthusiast scène lol
@@richburmond6761 Well, it was unpopular opinion from what I gethered from geekhack forums and such.
woww your review definitely helped me choose which keycaps i want for my gmmk pro :) also the quality of this video is amazing you'll blow up soonn im sure of it
I’m glad I helped! And thank you so much! :)
These are compatible with the razer hunstman te???
Yes, I have the Huntsman TE and can confirm they are compatible with these kecaps :)
Got the Midnight set and I LOVE THEM. Came from a GMK Red Samurai, which are great, but I love the sounds on these and the better spacebar make it worth it
Nice! I hope you enjoy it like I did! 😊
How long did it take you to get use to the profile?
what switches are you using on they keyboard?
Hey, so sorry for the late reply! I'm using Zeal Zealio V2 Switches for this one, I found them here - zealpc.net/products/zealio
what is that mousepad or deskpad?
I got it from Etsy, here's the seller: www.etsy.com/listing/902262708/retrowave-topographic-desk-mat-desk-pad
:)
Akko's fonts and design sadly doesnt click with me:(
Which keycap set would you say has a good font design? :)
@@SerendipityChannel91 'melgeek mda plastic' is insane! I bought the copy one since that one isnt available and it is affordable :)
The random WHAT lol
what!!!
🤣😂😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
love the meme
Thank you 😂 I had to, it’s so effective
Does anyone if they have interference with north facing switches?
Nope. It passed the "paper-strip" test. :)
@@SerendipityChannel91 Awesome! thank you for responding :)
WAT lol
Honestly my fave 🤣🤣
