I feel like this set particularly is still not perfect as they are still "new", but great to see more keycap manufacturers/alternative come into the hobby. Even the current common PBT manufacturers (EPBT, Geekark, etc) are starting to overwhelmed with orders.
Loved the review! The background of your videos is always so satisfying. I got my 015 as well last week, def agree abt the value. And also agree with some of the points, i think the alt and other mods and such are *slightly* thin. It's amazing to see all these new PBT sets, and more and more affordable keycaps. But yeah, nicely done as usual👏
Thank you! My process for selecting lofi is to play random lofi from Stream Beats until I find some that I think fits the video 😂 Should I be expecting a video on 015 from you?
@@jimmynguyen973 Dude it takes me like 30 minutes to find background music LMAO I need to start doing that. And yeah, I had 015 on hand rn but they're sending a fresh set because FedEx roughed up my box and I don't wanna show up a scuffed box haha. School is starting again on the 10th too so really not sure when it will come out😅
I got the Lilith and I love these keycaps, but what sucks is that I was pulling out the keycaps and Im always very careful, but on the very first day I got them and was pulling em off to put them away, I noticed a small paint chip on my I key. I emailed support and they basically told me I was SOL. It sucks. First set I've ever had this happen with. Paint should not be chipping off so easily.
Was just watching your Story of mechanical keyboards, came across your Rukia, do you think you'd be able to do a revisit of the Rukia keyboard and tell a bit more about the board and explain any pros and cons if you have any? Kind regards, Lam
Hi Lam, I don't think ill be revisiting my Rukia. I don't really have much to say about it other than it's a high quality polycarb keyboard with a nice and shiny brass weight. I wish it had arrow keys, I would use more if it did (like the Arisu layout). The layout doesn't seem that ergonomic, but it's a nice change from a standard staggered keyboard.
That's true but me being the weeb I am and them including that Mirocard for purchases in the first 48 hours is even more tempting, guess I'll just have to wait and see what my financial situation is like when the gb runs
I prefer hiragana for the sub legends as it's easier for me to read them. Katakana is reserved for romaji which isn't used as much and kinda confusing to type on. Definitely a deal-breaker for me.
I too vastly prefer no Japanese sublegends as I can't read/write Japanese (and will probably never get around to learning to either) and it usually makes it look cluttered. Great news that there are more manufacturers popping up though. Not sure how I feel about how the keys clearly look like (at 2:57) they are just white blanks dyed on only the top and side surfaces though. Hm. Thanks for this review and introduction though!
ok please help ive spent 5 hours looking for a keyboard i have £150 so like 200 dollars and i want a keyboard that looks like the one your holding 1:36 idc about the keycaps just want a keyboard like that where i can change switches to sound nice and have that layout HELP ME XD

I was hunting the GMK Darlings but I have totally fallen in love with this set!
Great review! I was on the fence about getting these but now I'm just waiting for gb 😎 nice work, very helpful comparisons, 10/10 content
Great, to-the-point review!! You deserve more subs bud.
Thanks for the awesome review. May I know how is the texture feel like compared with Leopold stock and ePbt? Or it is smooth on the surface?
Still shocked how underrated you are. Love from Finland. Keep up with your good work.

Nice review! :)
PBT Lord looks clean! Still debating if I should get into the GB or not.
What do you think about glube for linearns
How do I get those caps?
Excited for the Mirocards as well!
How’s the warp on the spacebars?
No significant warping on my spacebars, but I'm just one sample size.
do you plan on trying out the new gat yellow pros
Not atm, there are so many new switches these days that its quite hard to keep up with them all.
room tour or setup tour any time soon?
Yup! Planing on that to be my next video
Yeah I love there pbt keycaps tbh and there style also I like sub legends lol
I wished there were atleast one competitor to GMK’s abs.
Curious, why would you like more ABS keycaps?
@@jimmynguyen973 Clack > thock
If people jump to PBT will give you shorter production times for GMK at least.
hey thats kat great wave ;)
Man I need this set, such great value too. But I also need to save money so idk if I should lmao
In the end this hobby is just luxury, so if you need to save money do so. Over time things will just get cheaper / better value!
That's true but me being the weeb I am and them including that Mirocard for purchases in the first 48 hours is even more tempting, guess I'll just have to wait and see what my financial situation is like when the gb runs
Thanks for thisss
You're welcome!
Do you know how much gmk peaches n cream is in the aftermarket/ will be rereleased
I prefer hiragana for the sub legends as it's easier for me to read them. Katakana is reserved for romaji which isn't used as much and kinda confusing to type on. Definitely a deal-breaker for me.
"Short wait times" Now near the end of 2022 their wait times have been around 1 year :(
Plastic tray? Better than GMK already
Those trays look identical to the ones used by IFK
That's a great observation, I somehow missed this when I was creating this video. IFK also has those same indents on the bottom of the keys 🤔
