A flimsy metal keycap puller is a good thing. You don't wanna scratch your keycaps. You're also using it incorrectly. You're suppose to go down and slightly tilt it then lift, not just go straight down and lift.
Value goes even higher with akko's prebuild keyboard when you get keycaps just for your keyboard. I got 75% and it was 84$ on 10% discount. Switches are also so smooth i love them, but i get that not everyone will like them, similiar with case. Thats why keycaps market is so insane, because 1 set can match every keyboard. Anyway now there is pretty crazy discount on Drop for GMK keycaps, for TKL kits Red Samurai 69$, Laser 99$.
Personally, I like Akko keycaps feeling compared to GMK is much more premium with the cased packaging. Akko's are also much more cheaper than GMK and a bit more expensive than GMK clones. Another thing is that having different Akko sets gives you a way to mix and match their keycaps and they could still blend well together with their colours. ASA profile can take a bit of time to get used to but I find it more comfortable than Cherry.
Showing the profiles of the keys side by side was enlightening… I was having a hard time picturing ASAs before your video. Oh, and don't worry about the "8" key. Just press "4" twice.
I found it for $48.33 (translate from my local currency), do you think it's legit or just a bigger scam from the store that sells akko black rose for $10 cheaper?
I purchased a set of akko asa keycaps but i wasnt a fan of a couple things. The legends are kind of big and centered, and also the sound profile sounded a bit more hollow? or rattly? not sure. Its mostly preference based gripes so i ended up returning my set. Quality wise, they were really high quality for the money you pay for.
I'm using these: www.amazon.com/dp/B07LBG1DFQ?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details Super helpful if you switch between multiple boards and don't want to worry about stressing the ports.
Thank you for the kind words! I'm just using a Canon EOS Rebel SL2 with the 2 kit lenses, a decently affordable camera and I think it serves its purpose very well!
@@via.vincee7686 whatttt, that's a crazy nice footage you take out of that camera. And one more question, what kind of light do you use? I'm still shock about the camera you use ngl. I thought it was a7iii or eos r or some high end camera.
@@hietrn lol I'm actually looking to purchase a sony a7iii but it's a bit pricey. As for lighting, it's just natural lighting, I just wait for the right time of day or i use the blinds to channel the light how I want.
@@via.vincee7686 damn, you're good at using nature light. Yea, the a7iii is kinda pricey but i can guarantee it gonna deliver stunning footage, the color grading gonna feels easier than these as well since the footage has way more data for you to work with. Keep up the good work.
Hi! does it have right keycaps for rightmost column on 68 keeb? i mean, are the far right column's DEL, PGUP and PGDN match in line with the rest of the keys?
@@via.vincee7686 yeah I mean I'll do some epbt and even some jtk sets as they have gotten very good imo also have a cool sound nice pop to them lol I'm all about sound I like clack so gmk will always be at the top but epbt is nice of let's not forget about crp now cro just as that special sound absolutely the best sound with the alphas I'll use a gmk spacebar though with them lol
The problem with Akko keycaps is them doing clones. Until they come up with original colorways I just cannot buy these, which is unfortunate. Really dig the profile.
This moment when the budget brand shows GMK how packaging is done right
100% it makes the keycaps feel that much more premium.
you can be a budget brand when you do clones of gmk sets :)
@@adverbs626 well they discontinued their sets that has the same colorway from GMK sets.
@@adverbs626
honestly have no idea why you don't have more subs, this quality is on par with something id find from a much larger channel
Haha, thank you for watching and the kind words! We're still starting off so hopefully there is a lot more room to grow!
exactly his voice and vid quality is satisfying to watch

Ahh thank you for the insight! Still learning new things everyday with this hobby.
I love everything about Akko keycaps! Crazy good value for money. Great video!
I can't get enough love these caps.

Akko’s packaging is just… *chef kiss

@@via.vincee7686 thanks!
@VIA.Wincee does VIA/QMK still work with the magnetic ports
@@thatmustbewil I don't see why they wouldn't however I have not tested this yet! If I do get around to it I will definitely let you know!
@@via.vincee7686 sweet! thanks for the reply
how do they compared to gmk? because at this point i felt like gmk is just trying to harvest as much money from us
I honestly love the keycaps, and I think they should be considered as a legit option when building keyboards, not just a budget option.
Really nice video and videography, may i ask what camera do you use? Your footages look crisp as heck!

Do these fit in a razor keyboard? And if it does will I still see the Lights

I believe it does! If you want to make sure, the Amazon link will have a picture showing all the available keycaps in the set!
Is these keycaps comparable to Glorious keycaps ?
Better
They start to shine after few months.
what do the number tags mean, for example #5757, #8048, etc
I think that's from my discord username 😂 it's not supposed to be there
@@via.vincee7686 huh, because a lot of other videos have those numbers
eh, I have akko keycaps and i dont like it.. i keep going back to Keychron and GMK keycaps because of the feel and thickness
SUBBED.
Thank you for the support!
NSX!
LOL good eye
If they only had Iso and more cherry profiles sets :/
True! Hopefully in the future they will expand their line up.
When the budgets sound better than the GMK 💀(imo no hate)
Akko is better thank GMK and less pretentious
I'd get a GMK set only if the theme is EXACTLY what I'm looking for. But nowadays there are so many good brands out there.
pretty sure these caps are clones but in asa
Ain't a clone if they didn't use the same novelties
Nope not my thing lol gmk I'm stuck with you buddy haha
Hahah I can respect that, I still have my eyes on plenty if GMK sets.

You can’t trademark or own a colour combination man relax yeah?
Great! Moar keyboards for me!
There's no such thing as an original colorway
do you want them to create their own colors?
