7:15 wow a keyboard enthusiast finally acknowledges that the average person buying a keyboard doesn't have a soldering iron.
But they are so cheap
@@Doodmeister0 but again, the average person doesn't know how to solder
@@vleed1 Even if I knew how to solder, I'm not buying a soldering iron to do one thing.
That's just a waste of space if its just to do one thing that I'll probably only do once.
I’m an average person with a soldering iron and no keyboard please send help
@atomfusion231 that wasn't the point i was making, the point is most people aren't willing to mess with their keyboard like that.
To anyone that just wants to listen to the keyboards, here you go!

ily
Thanks
U dropped this crown 👑
the magic refiner looks like my keyboard but mine is VERY clicky
you messed up the timing
13:54 I guess when they say “hot-swap” they mean “use hot to swap”
😂
they were swapped once. and heat was involved
“Does this keyboard good for gaming?” Making me laugh
"This keyboard yes good gaming"
Much keyboa d good gaming at games used sandals mens clothes womens socks
There is no point buying anything but a hall effect keyboard if you're using it to game.
"PRO GAMING KEYBOARD!!!"
all you need for gaming is antighosting
and if it is quiet then it is perfect who the fuck would want a loud keyboard that can be picked up by your mic or wake somebody up
I am an accountant have been using a Keychron C3 Pro at work with a separate numpad. Isn't hotswappable but it is gasket mount and QMK/VIA support that I use daily. For $30 when on sale it is cheap enough that I leave it there and don't worry about it walking off.
I bough it just because of price. Pleasantly surprised.
They actually released a hot swap version and it was on sale a couple weeks ago for $40
Also rocking the C3 Pro, mostly because it's super cheap and qmk/via is helpful in swapping my caps and esc keys
I do want a separate numpad though, would make blender usable again for me lol
C3 Pro is basically the Lemokey X1 -.-
@@MultiNakir Except the C3 Pro is gasket mount. Big difference.
With the risophy keyboard, I just put wuque studio switches and a tape mod and it turned out to be great. It's now my daily driver.
I love how the budget end of things, hell, the ultra budget end of things, has gotten so much better in the last year or so. I fully agree with you that the first and last are the two best in this lineup. They have decent starting points, and since they are hot swap and you can mod them, it means you can get into the hobby for what would have been impossibly low prices not that long ago. Hell, I'm tempted to buy that first one just for the keycaps lol.
Still, nothing could beat epomaker x aula f75 in budget category. I got this keyboard for just $40 but the performance feels $100
How well it handle response time? Did you have any problem while gaming?
this keyboard is so amazing,I've been with him for 3 weeks,I've never seen anything like it for the price offered and quality
@@rodrigoeduardo9199 ahh this made my day so good i just ordered it
@@MixTV-sb7hxu can set the denounce level and tap sens is very responsive
@@cvyap actualy i dont know what debounce mean but i was meaning that in ms. Respond not the how sensitvy of switch
bro said cheap chinese keyboard, literally everything he buy is made in china
I worked 3445 hours at the sweatshop to make those
@@DumbWaffle💀
@@DumbWaffle That's a damn lie! There's no way in hell that you guys would be allowed to contact the outside world! You should be working!

Bro these 650 Hours per month are all wasted
@@Exotic_189 ikr
7:17 jokes on you! I have iron and no keyboard.
Sounds like you're talking about a gun but you're a cyberpunk character
Clicking on a keyboard with an overwhelming voiceover should be criminal considering that’s the creme of the crop in keyboards and thats the base of this channel.
the redragon k552 deserves a spot in this video imo
its a tkl with hot swappable switches, full rgb, and it have alot of potential for modding with alot of tutorials on youtube for it.
the software for it looks alot like the t dagger keyboard in this video
and one of its down sides is the cable is fixed and not swappable but can be modded
This video makes me glad that I´m past the ¨plastic beginner¨ keyboard stage. But they are good to learn on and even get your keyboard collection started.
I'm glad I'm past the premium / exotic keyboard stage and can appreciate a nice plastic board. As long as it has hotswap, source code, and a good physical layout, I'm happy.
I loved the overdubbed part. It was like a foreign film!
Or an episode of Hipyo Anime I guess
I've been having issues with lagging so I thought it was me
I got my Aula F87 for under $40 after conversion. It is hotswappable and comes with Leoborg Greywood V3, tri-mode, has full RGB on keys, RGB battery indicator, RGB side panel, and my variant came with matcha/white MDA profile keycaps
where? cause on my amazon it is $91 after conversion
Hey there Hipyo!👋
I have a little tip for your stabilizers to rattle less. First, take them out of the keyboard, and seperate the little metal bar from the stabilizers. Then on the 2 ends, put 1 layer of tape around the tiny metal bar. The best tape to use for this is a type of tape with a paper texture, but just plastic tape also works. It works for me, and my stablizers don't rattle anymore. I didn't even have to lube them, I just used tape. ⌨❤
It would be cool to see you review the Xinmeng M87
Vid on it next month!
@@HipyoTech i am literally using the xinmeng m87 pro v2 as i am typing this reply 😆
Pls @hipyotech review the ajazz ak820, btw nice vid
Need a budget full size keyboard roundup, can't go without my numpad
My favorite budget buy was a Kemove Shadow DK61 several years ago. This was right after returning a Keychron (they were still growing, and had some QA issues).
I didn't really expect much of the Kemove, which made it an even better pick. I looked and they're half as much now, and added 2.4 wireless, instead of just bluetooth like mine.
I'm so excited for my Wooting. I've only heard bad things about the feel, but the performance 😎
I really like the first one, maybe cuz my favorite color is blue tho🙃
the lemokey x3 looks very similar to the keychron c series boards
13:30 so THATS why the keycap/switch puller looked so familiar.
According to Google Translate, the switch label at 16:30 reads "Kaihua Bicui Shaft" and the small text is "Regular feel, long life of 50 million times".
4:03 I'm curious about why do you say north facing LED "kinda suck"?
I mean, are there significant reasons other than just because they interfere with one row of cherry profile keycaps? which is (arguably) a kinda meh keycap profile tbh
Are you making videos on the ajazz ak820 and the epomaker aula f75?
The HEXGEAR E2 PRO is a great budget keyboard bought for someone else and became my main board over last few months
Speaking of 'cheap' Amazon keyboards, the Aula F99 is fantastic. I'd get one for home (it's my work keyboard) except I want to get a splat spacebar keyboard for home.
Can you make a video reviewing the AULA F75 cuz I’ve heard it’s good and it is quite cheap on amazon
hey, just wanted to mention the sound tests for the lemokey keyboards are backwards 😅
i had the xinmeng and immediately returned it, but the risophy is surprisingly good with mods
truly impressed by the first and last boards!
I bought this A4Tech FStyler FS300 for 35 bucks like a few months ago and that thing is kinda underrated.
It has the same aesthetic keycaps as the Keymove you showed here, but less busy legends and they're double shot. Came with deadening, linear HOT SWAPPABLE (although north facing LED) switches. A removable cable that's also pretty good looking and TWO FLIPPY FEET.
There's one small funny problem, it's 96% which means no Home or End which is kinda a problem for me as a programmer, but I got around it by remapping page up and page down lmao.
I was so impressed by the series that I got their Bluetooth Mouse too which is also very well made for being 10$ and has some quiet clicks that are very premium.
Definitely worth checking out.
The fact Lemokey comes with a typo on the big tagline on the box ("possiblities") doesn't inspire a lot of confidence in their QA.
Just got a Monsgeek M1 with some budget keycaps and switches based on your videos and I love it! Thanks for giving the confidence to give custom keyboards a shot.
I just recently got a Yunzii Y75, it is a little bit of money but the switches sound amazing and quality is very nice. It costs $100 but with a 10% discount that amazon offers it is a very good deal. I got the black and cream keycaps and Gateron Pro Yellow switches. They are pre-lubed 3-5 pin hot swap. Definitely recommend!
The Keychron Q3 Pro is a TKL with both soldered (red LED) and hot swappable (RGB) options for both less than $50.
1:07 the epomaker Ajazz AK820 Pro is an amazing keyboard hands down, and it isn't crazy expensive
3:24 "does this keyboard good for gaming"
I got the Redragon K656 Garen Pro for $49. Great deal
I loved this episode of the Hipyo Anime. Needs more energy firing goodness though :)
please look at the RK ROYAL KLUDGE M75 Gaming Keyboard - would love ur thoughts, i bought it as my first "custom" and im kinda amazed, but i wanna know if its just my inexperience in keyboards or if its really that good for the price of 100$
Hey Hipyo! Could you do a video that showcases the best keyboard of different budget ranges that have knobs?
The fact that 2 of these are pretty good for under $50 is pretty amazing.
You should review the Aula F75
He has reviewed it before :)
@@manraylemons when? I can't see the video
5:21 I'm glad the keyboard was pre lubed, bonus!
You should try the AK820
got same thought, bought it as backup, ended in my office as main :O
Thanks for including one with numpad ! Please do more of those. I bought new keyboard for work recently and there is shocking lack of reviews for models with numpad. I need to type a lot of emails but also charts and number codes in work so having a numpad is absolute must for me. I dont understand how can people use those 60-75% boards for work when you cant even use calculator properly on those....you people seriously just type words all day ??
I haven't watched all the way yet, but I got the Ajazz AK820 Pro 75 off Amazon for like $50 and its pretty good for that price.
yo u should try aula f75
Those are so pretty lol I get what you mean by buying a cheaper one and upgrading on your time.
A few weeks ago I went on Amazon and bought a MageGee mechanical keyboard for my desk at work, $39 not too bad, 100% hot swappable, 2 size of feet stands, decent sounding red switches, a number pad that was a must for the work I do. And solid blue LED lights with different modes.
A couple days ago I switched out the stock red switches for blue RedDragon switches….can’t wait to use them at work lol
My ONLY complaint is the LED lights lol I wish it had full RGB support instead of the one color lights it has but for only $39 I’m not complaining one bit 🤙
I have an older Risophy that I purchased pre-pandemic and its awesome! I guess I got an okay one that is still my current main driver at work. Basically, a $5 keyboard is not as premium as the current Risophy, but it will still do work related things and the Risophy will last at least 5x longer than a knockoff peripheral from NXT.
Its been nearly 20 years race to the bottom, and its nice to see descent mechanical keyboards for
I personally use a $30 MageGee Portable 60% Mechanical Gaming Keyboard. (It’s not really a 60%). It’s not a bad keyboard for the price, however the switches are soldered on. I did a tape mod and added some foam in the base and I am quite fond of how it sounds for the price.
You should try a qwerty key keyboard, it's from romania and its very good
I use the Xinmeng M87 Pro, which is also pretty cheap, mine comes in also Gasket mounted but surprisingly it’s hotswappable
The $25 keyboard has a blue that I really like!
The second one honestly looked nice, if all I did was look at a picture of it I would think it was more than that
This helped when I needed a new keyboard Thx!
I have "Endless Possibility" from the Sonic Unleashed OST in my head whenever the "WHERE ARE THE ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES" clip is played.
It's so nice to see these videos.
But i'd raise the stakes and challange you Hipyo to do the same but with ISO keyboards. Because they are kinda lackluster when it comes to budget options.
I'd get the X3 for the PCB and software, at least. I like that it's a standard layout.
Everything else can go in the recycling bin.
14:13 - I’m losing it at this part because why the hell would they do that?? 😂
Even Keychron knows, "gaming" equals crappy and cheap.
I bought the first keyboard about 4 months ago for my first mechanical keyboard I put purple lavender switches in it witch made it sound great
The ATTACK SHARK Ajazz AK820 keyboard is actually super nice for its price point. It’s $46 normally, but it’s on sale for $35 right now.
dose it allow all keys pressed at once or still ghoast on uncommon key press combinations?
guess not anymore or what store? official site its 50-65 bucks, amazon its 42-45 bux...... where is it 35?
@@NightmareRex6 When I made the comment, it was on sale for $35. I made the comment 4 days ago, so it likely went off sale
I bought 60% Magegee on Temu sale for around 5 dolars and it works around half of year, and to be honest .. .for that price I can't be more satisfied to have a small backup keyboard like this :D
@16.30 0 GPT-4o says the green switch graphic says:
凯华碧翠轴 (Kaihua Jade Switch)
线性手感 (Linear feel)
5000万次超长寿命 (50 million keystrokes ultra-long lifespan)
I know 104 key (full size) keyboards aren't your shtick, but I would like to know a couple of things. First, I would really love to see you review the IBM Model M (or a modern Unisys version). I would also like to know if there are any full size keyboards out there with knobs or similar extra features.
Can you also make a video about openrgb compatibility of the keyboards you test like to Keychrons & other brands ?
lemokey looks really interesting, it is what i look for in a keyboard. imo they went TOO cheap, i would take metal plate instead of the foam any day of the week, but their "formula" looks ideal for me. overall it's great to see that keyaboards are getting more affordable, not a huge fan of $300 keyboards.
Hipyo, some of us really like full-sized versions, and none of your reviewed keyboards have them. YOU NEED TO REVIEW AT LEAST SOME OF THEM... :(
He doesn't care about numpads ig 🤷🏾♂️
You got me into custom keyboards... now the Woothing musn't be a disappointment....
I got an Atrix RGB keyboard from GameStop and I was genuinely impressed with the quality. Otemu Brown switches, very meh stabilizers and a metal casing(?), very decent keyboard but it is not hot-swap-able
Hipyo you HAVE to check out the aula f75 if you haven’t already it’s pretty budget also make sure you get the Leobog reaper switches because in my opinion and in probably many more those are the best switches
wait i dont understand when you say "the keycaps are doubleshot so they are more on the clackier side" so doubleshot keycaps clack more ? which keycaps are tockier?
The AULA F75 is budget king. Try it and you’ll be amazed.
I thought u were finally gonna try the phantom tecware 87+. guess ill have to ask again
I just got a keyboard from Irok (75%) and it sounds AMAZING stock for $50. Def worth checking out. Might be the next budget king
YES! More videos like this please
Honestly the lemokey x1 is my favorite in terms of sound
will hipyo review the lucky65
i actually really like the magic refiner its pretty cute and sounds pretty good
ngl the second felt like heaven to me 😂
Can you look at koorui keyboards especially the 75%one?
Can you do a short or upgrade video for the Risophy 60? I wonder what you would use to make it amazing.
I’ve been using a 5 below keyboard since last year, I finally bought an actual good keyboard today
The fact that the Keychron Lemokey X boards was such a disappointment made me sad. Rocking a V6B3 at work and I absolutely love this thing. Plus, it was on sale for $60. Really need to grab one for home use as well. It's been a great daily driver at work.
No Red Dragon? I know they're msrp is over 50, but they're continually on sale for less than the $50 mark. Got my K556 several years ago and it's only feeling better with age. It's hot swappable, fully aluminum chassis, and has fully addressable rgb. I used a logitech mechanical at work, until it developed an allergy to dell computers for some reason, and have been using my red dragon at work for the last 6 months with no issues at all.
Man idk if a lot of people would be interested but if you had some ISO keyboard videos.
As a non anglophone, i just can't run my head around using ANSI keyboards but that's what almost every video I can find is talking about.
11:34
Cat: Hey hipyo you like my cocktail
Hipyo: 😨😨
I've noticed Hipyo really likes smaller sized keyboards and keyboard layouts, while I'm over here with a full-sized keyboard, media keys, and 18 macro keys. 😅
I got a full-sized Redragon hot-swappable keyboard for $30 on Amazon with Red Switches in them. Personally, I’m not a fan of the included red switches due to how sensitive they are and tend to chatter when pressing light & off-center so, I’m swapping the switches out for Outemu blacks.
They're all hot-swappable! You just have to get the soldering iron hot to swap them!
I like the aesthetic of the keycaps on the last one.
Honestly at these price points I’d just save for a better keyboard. Even as a kid I used to save christmas and birthday money till I had enough for things I wanted. You’ve had a lot of fantastic budget boards on your channel. I’m honestly hopeful for wobkey, cause if they can maintain the Rainy 75 in stock on Amazon. They really have something special.
I have that X87 and even though I have a few cheap custom keyboard (GKS68, GMK67, TES84) with multiple switches (Akko Crystal Wine Red, Ajazz Peach, Gateron Black, JWICK T1, etc.), a few "nicer" cheap prebuilt (RK84 SE, which I'm using as my main keyboard, SK61S, Logitech Pop) and a lot of no-name ones, I still chose the X87 as my work keyboard. It looks really pretty, I love how it sounds and feel and at the end of the day, it's nice to have a keyboard that you don't need to do anything with and won't care if you break it because it's so cheap.
You tried the aula 75?
I bot a keyboard from amazon for $17.98 and i love it so far the spays bar is not Balanced but the light and sound is great and it works really good to
In which planet does a manufacturer make only 5 keys hotswappable out of an entire keyboard? It feels like trolling on another level.
shipping a keyboard with a switch puller that you can't hot swap is crazy
