    To be honest, maybe it's just me, but I was turned off by the light blue keycaps with the white lettering. I can see the lettering on the other keys fine, but it's basically invisible on the light blue keycaps. Maybe it looks different in person, but that's a major turnoff.
    And the internal weight is just hilarious. I can see that being justified by, "Well, it's for ergonomics so that the board doesn't slide around", but for $160, you could accomplish the same thing by giving it a metal frame.

All so they don't feel like they have to do any work or take responsibility, hey they learned it from a "productivity expert." What's truly sad is that there are people going to buy this, like most of the Higherground boards for WAY too much money. IMHO this board would make me less productive personally.

    It's one of those things that feels like: "Oh ok, I can pay more because of the research and development that went into it." However, there cleary was a minuscule amount of research at best from aliabdaal, and it doesn't even seem like he used an OEM. Seems like he found a keyboard that already existed, and made his own keycaps for it. Probably would have been better off making just a keycap set.

    I hope that he notices he messed up and takes these products FAST out of the market.
    The board is a super budget chinese at board with his branding on it! If he was asking around 80 bucks would still be ABSURD but 160???? ITS OUTRAGEOUS!!!
    Thank you Hipyo for the lovely content and showing us this crazy scam.

    definitely have a similar feeling when I see folks recommending the sort of stereotypical “gamer” keyboard for like $80-$90 or more when other boards with increased functionality (e.g. key remapping with VIA) / more desirable mounting (e.g. gasket vs. tray mount) are available for the same price.

    @SwitchAndLever 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    As you so correctly point out the primary audience for this keyboard is not people like yourself, keyboard enthusiasts or afficionados, but rather a segment who generally know little about keyboards as a whole. For them "tactile" doesn't have any bearing in the sense it does for you, it's not a way to describe the function of the underlying switch below the keycap, but rather it is something that is connected with the sense of touch. This is something which holds true for all keyboards, whether they are mechanical, membrane, or even micro switches or dome switches, it's all tactile. A touch keyboard, or an on screen keyboard on a phone or a tablet, is not a tactile experience though. So his marketing material, at least in this aspect, is spot on, just not for you. This is the problem with terms which means different things in different contexts. For instance, I have worked as an interaction designer specialized in tactile experiences, I have never once designed a keyboard. Tactility is an extreremly broad field.
    Thanks for your videos Hipyo, they informed me a lot when I bought my first proper modern mechanical keyboard, though the experience of trying to find good keyboards with an ISO layout is an absolute nightmare. Have you had any thoughts about making a video about ISO layouts and the best keyboards in various budget segments? I ended up going with the Keychron K10, as it was one of the very few full size keyboards with an ISO layout, that also had bluetooth and hotswap, that I could find.

  • @chromenewt
    @chromenewt 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Only a quarter way through while watching. On the "tactile" front, I'll admit the custom keyboard i built myself uses the clicky Kahle greens (sage? I can't remember but they're green and clicky) alongside some low profile keycaps from Aliexpress of all places on an Epomaker (oh jeebs.... Just realised i made so many keyboards in my quest for the perfect keyb that i can't remember which one i used... Damn you, Hippyo, and your vids getting me into this!)
    Anyway, there's something nommy to me about that click-thock, so if he's talking about switches i can understand what he means (it's still a warcrime during game sessions using VOIP, but my work productivity has increased dramatically)
    Edit: I just got to the switch part. *LINEARS*!?! Gorram tactile-traitor! To the gulag with him!

  • @ehlaine
    @ehlaine 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Lofree, although not very on the custom keyboard side, they're at least trying to make A LOT OF intersting products, and the quality plus aesthetics of the products are very nice. Now being in this keyboard hobby rabbit hole, looking at the TH-camr I once watched... the feeling is just complicated. I might actually buy this board if I didn't know anything about keyboard and looking for a daily driver 😢

  • @3rn1z

    Glarses cameo was amazing.
    The concept of productivity can change from person to person. For myself, productive keyboard has to be atleast a TKL due to needing a quick access to arrow keys and home/insert buttons + f-row. I would pick pressing only 1 button for a thing I need instead of multiple. It's all preference, but as mentioned 60% doesn't sound like a productive keyboard size.

    I use a 31 year old IBM Model M keyboard with catastrophic buckling mechanisms on my current machine, and it's awe-some -- types so fast. This video reminded me of the design because IBM added weights to that keyboard at the time, and my own keyboard weighs about 4.5 pounds. I do have a second keyboard at the ready, though, because although I'm pretty in love with the Model M, it's really really noisy, and I can't really use it if I'm in a meeting or on the phone. Anyway, thanks for the great videos!

    • @ArnauViaM
      @ArnauViaM 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      In my opinion, the video comes across as "populist" and "sensationalist" because it exaggerates the keyboard's flaws early on, even though the creator later admits that the product isn't that bad. This inconsistency undermines the critique and mirrors the very marketing tactics being criticized when he claims Ali exaggerated the keyboard's marketing. Additionally, the video seems to be leveraging Ali Abdaal's audience for views, which seems hypocritical given his critique of Ali for using his own audience. Lastly, considering the channel's size, the production quality-script, editing, etc.-doesn't meet the expectations I have for a TH-camr of this size.@@hypr7213

    Best keyboard I ever had all around was an original Ducky Zero with reds. 10 years and still going. Best all around I’ve gotten recently was a Durgod. Only bought it because my machine gun typing on regular reds was annoying my co workers, and it was the only one I could find with silents for a reasonable price on short notice. Bigger issue for me is always the caps, and I prefer cuppy caps, so I have to buy a key cap set.
