Hi
Where is 50 dolar budget keyboard video?
Hey guys! I'll be on vacation for the next week but I hope you really enjoy this video!
No worries, enjoy!
bro when your next short
Enjoy your vacation man B)
Hipyo tech I’m looking to build my first ever mechanical keyboard off the mechanical keyboard website I have a budget of around 125 what recommendations do u have. Or should I get a good quality mechanical keyboard and change the switches and keycaps instead? Also enjoy vacation

As a mechanical keyboard rookie/novice, it’s certainly refreshing to see little explanations of what things are and do. It’s very helpful.
“5-6 months for a Group Buy to fill”

cries in Q3 2022 Gmk Botanical
@@finncorboy19 basically gonna be Q1 2023 thanks to literally every gmk set having atleast 1 delay
@@YellowNotThe Its my first keycap group buy. ive never felt this type of pain before.
@@finncorboy19 I bought KAT Cat's Eye when I was just starting in this hobby, shortly after Taeha's Tfue build stream blew up. I didn't know what a group buy was...
Anyways I'm almost done with my third build and I can't wait to get those keycaps next year!
@@AmpluexCompressa 😳
Hipyo I’m almost done with my first custom!
hope it turns out good
if you ruin it I’ll ruin you
What switches do you use 😳
@@JayywonK tealios v2s lol
@@wydtruly don’t worry I did it, everything works lol
The keychron Q1 is definitely one of my favorite keyboards now days. I went with the blue version with phantom brown switches and I love it! I might upgrade later on if I get bored. But, I actually started off with Drop CTRL high profile as my first keyboard and I went way over budget with that one, but it was so worth the buy.
I now understand the point about numpads.
I used to swear by full size keyboards and felt I'd find no numpad to be a major issue, but after my last old one died on me a year ago I've been using a little bluetooth 75% one I happened to have as a temporary measure (that's ended up being semi-permeant lol) and I picked up a separate numpad cheap for when I need one. I've used that numpad twice in that whole year.
Now its turned off and tucked in a drawer by my desk and hasn't been touched in months. Numpads have their uses for some I'm sure, but I'm never going to need a full size keyboard again.
I'll stick to 75% since I do use the F keys frequently but I don't have a lot of room to manoeuvre on my desk so the downsize really does make a big difference to make things feel less cluttered.
finally 100k sorry i havent checked ur channel in a bit u deserve it
Another con with the Drop ALT HP is that you can only use 3-pin switches, so clipping off the legs on 5-pin switches is required
I just purchased the Akko 3068B. It arrives tomorrow. I am very excited. I hope I will love it ♥
Another good one I feel people often overlook is the Keychron series, I recently purchased the K6 and it was surprisingly good! And I took Glarses view and got Brown switches and the sound and feel is so good! Would highly recommend if people want to get a budget friendly starter board that's built well and has decent customisability.
Woop, can't wait for it, imma edit my comment at the final for the magical word that shows that I support you and watch the video till the end
you never edited your comment...
@@noahcowell. I didn't find the magic word to show that I watched the video untill the end

I'd love to see a GMMK Pro review :D
THANK YOU! i been wanted a new keyboard that doesn’t blast my ears off every time i hit the space bar. i couldn’t find any good ones, so thank you for helping me make my final decision 😭😭
Would love to get your take on the GMMK Pro. I just finished mine as my first custom mech build and I'm overall pretty happy with it but the Keychron Q1 definitely looks intriguing.
Love it when TH-cam notifications and recommended don’t tell me there’s a vid
Discord hands to the moon
there are actual people out there like me that use the function keys for work. its not for the freedom part, its for making life easier
Thank you so much for showing a keyboard that is also compatible with Mac! :) It's been one of my biggest struggles since wanting a keyboard that I can customize. I will eventually get a pc in time. Love your videos and perspective!
Akko 3098 is fullsize/1800 layout, hotswappable, comes with very decent keycaps and the Akko switches are cheap while being fine to type on. It's 90 USD shipped.
Just a personal tip.
I wish more people knew about the Kinesis TKO. It's a 60% 5-pin hot swap keyboard with optional split spacebar. It's solid out of the box. I grabbed one a few weeks ago and I am completely satisfied with it.
I’m new to these keyboard things does that mean I can change them to some non loud switches? Like pandas or something like those
@@maxgamerbeastplayz5459 you can change them to any switches u want, just look if the keyboard u r getting is hotswap and can support how many pins the switches u want has
These finally came in! I love them!
why do you sound so much like oversimplified its so beautiful i love your calm voice
I subbed earlier and was looking for a video on this and you had just posted. How lucky! THANKS!!!!!!!
I'm getting the q1 hopefully and please do a gmmk pro reveiw
I'd like it if you would do a comparison between the GMMK Pro and Keychron Q1 (once it releases). I think it would bring in a lot of views since they're kinda a stepping stone from budget to mid-range and they're almost directly correlated.
I can definitely recommend the Epomaker Ep84. After watching a lot of your videos, I bought one and modded it by swapping out the switches for kiwis and the keycaps for the cat set. For a little over $200, this is my favorite keyboard that I've ever used. I also got some lube to see if I'll like the kiwis with it, so we'll see!
Kiwis are pre-lubed
Please do a GMMK Pro comparison to the Keychron. I think it could be really interesting to see where one shines and the other does better.
Have a great holiday and look forward to your next video.
YES ITS FINALLY AVAILABLE I CAN BUY IT NOW
wait i dont have money
Throwing my hat in the ring for the KBD67 Lite, once they're able to keep more in stock regularly. Fantastic little board
duddeeeee, i started watching your videos because i wanted to get a keyboard, but now i'm watching just your voice...it's addicting....p.s. i'm still selecting a keyboard so it's helpful watching the videos as well
my man deserves this 100k cuz his videos are top notch
great video! I would recommend reviewing more *gamakay* keyboards
Hipyo's voice is so calming
I really enjoyed this video!
NK65 would be nice if it was usually in stock.
You can also build a DZ60 60% board with parts in stock on the regular
i like ur vids its calming
I actually have a womier k66 fully modded with durock stabs and fierce girl switches lubed and filmed and now it types like a dream. All for $150 with doubleshot pbt keycaps. Thanks for recommending the board!
One more super budget entry that is modable with a bit of effort is the tecware phantom. $45 bucks for a better than decent kb got me back into mechanicals after being unhappy with a few others that were more expensive and I'm in the process of building a epomaker gk 87 after figuring out what switches I wanted etc. etc. The fact that there are a ton of youtubers covering mechanicals now sure helps though.
for those looking for a nice 60 percent keyboard for $50 that comes with extra full set of key caps id recommend the Newmen m610, comes with rgb as well. i truly couldnt be happier with it. i got the browns, wanted the blues but forgot to click the option lol. can customize a bit right out of the box with the full extra key cap set!!
I would recommend the K617 Fizz
5:59 hipyo's not only reviewing his children but also picking his favorite.
I've been looking for something thats smaller than a 100% as a writer but as a dwarf fortress player Hipyo My Numpad My Fricken Uh Numpad so THANK YOU for the rec!!
3:07 i love your crack
I recommend foam modding the K66 because if you do not like a thoccy sound. It makes it sound a little bit more poppy.
Hey, loved your bgm! For that, I'm subscribed.
I just got a Drop SWITCH keyboard and I really like it :3 I'm waiting on my keycaps for it but I got Kiwis for them, and I'm really excited for it!
I was here when Hipyo was at 5k subs! Congrats!
Thank you for making this. Most of us aren’t trying to read the r/mechanicalkeyboards “wiki” no offense
It's worth a read!
definitely wanna see your review on the gmmk pro. Awesome vid man would love to see more stop motion stuff
Woah those are the blue cat keycaps that I literally just bought for my very first build in the thumbnail!
Im going to get the womier k66 now. Looks nice and its gateron red. Exactly what I wanted
holy ur growing fast as hell now 4k in 1 day i started watching months ago and you got like 1k a week holy good job man
Nice video! Thanks Hipyo!
btw congrats on 1 year!
I got a keyboard, with multi-media buttons, for $5.00 yesterday, from OfficeWorks in Australia. Beat that.
thank you for making my life easier
I always prefer the befores rather than the afters when you showcase their sounds xD
I almost have the money to buy my first custom this video helped a lot thank hipyo
Haven't watched it but those switches are 🔥
Great video, I've been looking for a new keyboard to build now I have some budget options to look at. I can hold on buying the GMMK until it's reviewed.
I like this vid style, maybe make a vid on budget keycaps cause i am looking for them but really dont know wich to buy. But great vid man
YES, please check out the GMMK pro
btw the epomaker ep 84 got gat yellows around a week ago
I got the EP 84 thanks to your review and Betty’s, technically is not my first mechanical keyboard but the difference between my previous one and this one is huge so it might as well be. I just changed the keycaps for now and I’m thinking about changing the switches, but I am kinda tight on budget and I have not decided what I want. But the fact that I can adds a lot of value to it. I also have the Epomaker GK68XS, that one I got because is not that expensive either, the pink one is pretty, is hot-swappable, works well with my iPad and MacBook, also with my work provided Chromebook, and is Bluetooth. Both very good with tight budgets.
Tofu60 kit, Blue Cat MA, Gateron Black Ink, Durock v2 Stabs
i'll do that one probably when i get the money
i leave youtube for a few days and hipyo has twice the amount of subscribers. congrats homie!
my next target of "I really want this keyboard" is definitely the Epomaker GK96XS!
I subscribed after this one. 👌🏻
Congratulations to one year
thank you for showing the EPOMAKER EP84 that's gonna be my new keyboard soon hopefully
Just subscribed. Thanks for all the helpful tips man, still trying to get my hans on the keychron:)
keyshackkeyboards definitely has the best prices on keycaps/switches/macropads out there. Free Shipping to the USA too.
luv ur stuff and this was so helpfull
Gmmk pro review pls :3 I’ve got mine in the and would really like to know what you think of it
just ordered the ep84 cant wait for it to come in
Definitely review the GMMK Pro, I have the GMMK Compact and it's great, I am partial to washers by the way soft and thicc is my jam.
the CIY Tester68 is great i think for this budget build. in most cases the shipping is what costs most when buying one depending on the site. i'd also recommend getting keycaps and switches from the same site or similar sites to keep the cost of shipping down.
showing my friend this vid, very useful. i will use this video in the future (i hope) 👍
On 65% layouts there are more keys missing than just the function keys, tilde is omitted as well and I can not do without it.
Thank you so much for helping me find a keyboard :))
I never understood the hype abiut keyboards until I upgraded from a Apex 3 to a K95 Platinum...big difference.
Idc what anyone says about the gmmk pro, its the best option out there for the price. Extremely solid.
I used to be crazy about having a keyboard with a numbpad. I got into mechanical keyboards and, I realized that the numbpad isn't really all that necessary. I mean, you have a row of numbers at the top of the keyboard. And having desk space IS important. So, I have been getting into smaller and smaller keyboards. I get the want for the numbpad but, it's really unnecessary.
I absolutely need the function keys cause I use them for my FF14 keybinds so thanks for the recommendation :)
Love your vids I been trying to find a good key board for me.
*_Quick explanation on why I need the numpad_*
The Italian layout sucks: it doesn't cover all the needed keys (with È and î being the most important ones), so you need the numpad (unless you want to search every single time for your specific character).
This isn't just a problem of the Italian layout, but in general a problem of layouts for languages with diacritics. And Italian doesn't even use that many accents: I don't even want to know how much the French, the Norwegian and the Vietnamese might hate this.
As a fan of budget keebs that epomaker 75% seems like it would be a fun mod project
Hi Hipyo, congrats on the 100K.
May I suggest that it would be better to get the Keycool KC84 instead of EP84? I mean EP84 is just a rebranded KC84 and it has a BT /2.4ghz variant that also have native Mac compatibility.
My mom uses a membrane keyboard that came free with a computer so I'm upgrading her to the Epomaker GK96S.
I also got myself a womier k87 for those beautiful lights
Womier is such an underrated board both the k66 and k87. RGB RGB RGB RGB RGB (and it sounds pretty decent!)
yess please make a review of the gmmk pro pls!
Royal Kludge also has super cheap hotswaps that are of reasonable quality.
Okay, for my 104 key gang. Some of us write a lot, especially those who do legal or scientific documents, reports, invoices and such so that numpad is critical. When you have to input 5 different people's identification card info on a document that numpad is indispensable. Also some of us are also turbo nerds and play turbo nerd simulation games, a lot of which demand a whole 104 keys and even then you'll need to memorize a lot of combinations. I play very heavily modded Arma 3, default game has like 8 pages worth of inputs, modded adds another like 15. In Arma but also games like DCS world and similar sims the more keys you have the better. Even casual or lite sims like Warthunder and such still demand a mountain of inputs, sometimes you just got to have as much as possible. Experiences exclusive to PC tend to use your entire keyboard more readily. Plus I generally prefer mapping a group of functions to a cluster of keys I have to remember than have to remember a string of key combos.
Guys i found logic to the sold out thumbnail, he is just showing what keyboard is out of stock and keyboards that arent, either that or hes clickbaiting for views👀...
Was going to comment about the monstargear ninja87bt but then you said boards you had personally checked out. Fair enough.
I am about to build my first keyboard and i really appreciate your videos! keep it up hipyo!!
When will be the next NK65EE restock? Im interested in buying the smoke variant
RK G68 seems to be a good choice for low budget hotswap keyboard
I was lucky to get the GMMK Pro and honestly you should review it - Im using it to type right now 👍😁
The aluminum GK68XS is pretty legit and is always in stock.
I want to build a keyboard soon so this is really helpful
