      Snazzy keycaps, but not my thing. Kind of too bad you didn't show it in a full 104 key keyboard.
      Also I'm just here because I hope that eventually you'll show a keyboard that's essentially the MS Natural Ergonomic 4000, but nice and mechanical with hotswap, per-key RGB, and preferably in 3 separate pieces. Not all of us are willing to deal with a keyboard that doesn't have a numpad and dedicated Scroll Lock key.

      "Made"? I would say designed. Some poor lads in China were the ones to make that.

    I would love a deep-dive into your design process, inspiration, and what working with different manufacturers is like. Keycaps are my favorite part of the hobby and I feel like there's not very much information around about how they get made.

      @ImOnMy116 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Seconded, really enjoyed Matthew Encina’s video on the design process for his custom keycaps and working with GMK. I think he’s now releasing a set with KBDfans. I’m not someone who’s likely to ever want to release a set nor am I a hugely creative type, but learning more about the design and manufacturing side of the hobby is super interesting!

    I just wanted to say, thank you! After watching a bunch of your videos, and years of only having crummy cheap keyboards, I have finally taken the dive into customizing a keyboard for myself. I took inspiration from your AliExpress video (because I'm on a STRICT budget). I'm excitedly waiting for everything to arrive!

    REALLY like the direction of this vid, feels more transparent somehow, seeing more of your living space, background on the process, feels more like a slice of life content mixed with keyboards. Great vid.

  • @justinseans
    @justinseans 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    They do look nice. Having the quality of the legends and colors proper makes a big difference, I actually have 5 keyboards now after I watched your videos and 8 sets of switches. I have been eyeing key caps as my next venture. These are actually very nice.

  • @NehirTemel-pu1rh
    @NehirTemel-pu1rh หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    even tho I dont got the money for a custom keyboard I love watching your videos. I probably watched like over 80 percent of your recent videos. Thanks to you I know quite a lot about keyboards compared to my previous amateur self. If I ever get a chance I will definitely build a coffee themed setup and play coffee talk with it LoL these look and sound purrfect

    I subscribed because you are amusing, but I originally found your channel because of the crazy keyboard mod videos you used to do.
    Only been in the hobby about a year & I already have 8 keyboards (but disappointingly none of them have actually needed to be modded).

  • @delayeedbms
    @delayeedbms 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    dude i just saw these keycaps because first i saw the GMK Tiramisu set and was like "wow" ok that looks cool but then realized its ABS. then i went to look for brown or coffee themed keycaps and found these. I decided to go with them and then i noticed they were designed by you haha.

    Sooner or later Hipyo will remember that ISO layout exists (if only for a build).
    I have now noticed (after actually following the links) that the set includes ISO keys... and every other key you could possibly want. Very thorough, i'll give them that.

    @richardgoff9397 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Those look so great, just tried my first dye sub pbt this past week and I definitely prefer them. Also a weird recommendation of a keyboard to try out is the Redragon Eisa. It is pretty cheap and is actually very good despite what I usually thought about the brand when I last tried them.

  • @cloudnoela
    @cloudnoela 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Would LOVE an indepth look the keycap dev!! :D
    Also, crazy timing too because I attempted a coffee-themed build with the new QK65v2 Classic Champagne colour. The Neo80 in Champagne could be a gorgeous golden/bronze colour to show off these keycaps on a larger build TKL build 🥰 I wasn't able to get coffee-themed switches in time for my build, but my choice might be the budget-friendly HMX Macchiatos! and apparently Alexoto's fave HMX switch too ☺

    I am probably not the target demo for these keycaps (i do not like coffee) but i am the target demographic for nerdy rants about product development, plastic moudling and budgetting and ways to make it manageable.
    And even though im not interested in coffeee i have to admit this keyboard is CUTE

    You went with "Super"? Man, I've been waiting for a "Hyper" in a keycaps set for ages! "Meta" is pretty rare, but I've seen it and have a set with it (although it's not a great set). I'd snap up a "Hyper" set (which, given the coffee theme, would actually make a lot of sense). Still, it's a pretty nice set. The color palette is very nice to look at.

    We are still pretty happy with our Garden set from last fall with Goblinkeys, that you oddly didn't mention :) I hope all went well with that one as ours is quite nice.

    • @HipyoTech

    I would have bought these if I had a mechanical keyboard and you had a nordic-se layout but for now I love my membrane it sounds so perfect in my ears and has gained sentimental value over the years, going from a cheap keyboard I bought because I needed one to a keyboard I NEED to replace(missing space keycap so I put the home button there instead, fn not working and one other hey not working) but so don't want to replace.
