Well well well, it's been quite budget board heavy lately, but I'm constantly being impressed! I'll change it up for the next. Much love to the Phils 😘
You're the first foreign person that i actually see reviewing rakk products. I don't own any rakk products but what i could tell by their spec sheets, websites, and some internet cafes actually using them they are a pretty good company and with such a cheap price in all of their item i wish more foreign influencers notice them
RAKK is a good rising brand here in the Philippines, and their products range from keyboards to computer cases, chairs, and even tables if I remember. Quite cheap too, very important for our cheapstake mentality.
I mean I would insta swap the caps so... The only thing it needs for me is a detachable cable and shipping overseas at moderated price (aliexpress maybe?)
They have a standard keycaps in a keyboard which is the rakk kimat xt 2 the font is simple and instead the font is on top of the keycap They're in front
This is the dream layout for me! Even has socketed switches so I can put my modded Outemus right in! I just finished resoldering all the rainbow crap off of my Z77, but I might have to get one of these, it really seems like the perfect keyboard for me
Get the Outemu blues. It's kinda hard to find though. Ive had mine for a week and i like the clickyness of the switches but its too heavy for me. Will most likely swap it out in the future
Finally the review that I've been waiting for Great reviews as always. We actually have a competition on customizing rakk ilis's magnetic cover right now :).
Typing this comment with my rakk ilis gateron switch, it's so good! thank you TaeKeyboards for reviewing this product, my fellow Filipino people will remember this wonderful event, I hope you'll review more products of Rakk in your future vids, more power to your channel!
@@jcross1215 Ducky is overrated IMO, quality dropped a lot. And there are almost no keyboards with this layout. Only a cooler master, not a premium brand either so not a lot more quality but 3x more expensive. And absolutely none of them offer any hotswap functionality. And there is doubleshot PBT keycaps on AliExpress that will completely stomp most of the stock keycaps on almost any keyboard.
Props for the PH hype, bro. I was surprised and glad I watched through the end. Awesome paint job! Respect 🖖 Well done on the review, I got so excited and proud watching I'm gonna pick this over the Redragon K552 and Havit KB432L.
Got mine on shopee for 1850php (36usd), Gateron yellows. Amazing value for the price. The version with Outemu blues are even cheaper at 1640php (32usd). Nice vid 🙂
Friendly tip you guys Can costumize the light of the key caps whenever you want by pressing the FN(hold it ) then press the(~) key then you can change the keycaps light by pressing what key you want to change then if your done pres the FN+~ key again :)
Mine is about to be delivered. After reading so many comments and watching reviews, I have read about the issues where the switches and LEDs die so early. I was so excited for it but now after reading the comments, I'm out here worrying whether I'm gonna enjoy the keyboard or gonna have buyer's remorse T-T
@@zerosick Wow, my keyboard has already been a year old! Yes, so far I haven't had any issues with it and I love it. Still using it day to day, from gaming to school works. Very worth it I would say.
HI! @TaeKeyboards I'm from the Philippines I'm really glad that you reviewed the Rakk Ilis, it's like a razer in our country I hope that you modify this keyboard to a detachable keyboard. big thanks for our admin Myk De Jesus
This keyboard is great. Change the font of the keycaps and it's pretty much perfect, in my opinion. I would say add a detachable cable, but that's not really a deal breaker. Seeing the internals makes it look relatively easy for a detachable cable mod. Bring this to the states, sell standalone white tops, and they could have a hit on their hands. I will definitely be on the look out for this one.
RAKK supplies has been out of stock for a few months now... Thanks TH-cam for showing this suggestion and letting me know that I will not be able to get one for myself for the time being...
There is one keyboard I would love to see you make a video on. Gigabyte has a mechanical keyboard priced at around 40 bucks, with CHERRY REDS. I believe it’s called the K83, and the fact that this exists is kind of unbelievable. That’s a huge steal if it really is what it is
They also have a hotswap keyboard. Its called Lam Ang Pro. Its offered as barebones, no switch and keycaps, or one with Kalih Silver/Bronze. Good stuff!
I am from Ph and this keybaord gains a lot of praise and Ive been planning to buy one but ended up with HyperX Fps pro. That said, this is really a nice keyboard.
I got the Rakk Ilis PBT variant with Outemu Reds and this is such a great keyboard for the price!! It's my first mechanical keyboard and I'm really happy with this purchase because of the affordability + the features it comes with (hot swappable, PBT double-shot keycaps, not so much rattly stabs) Hopefully it lasts me for a 2+ years cus I'm planning to save up and build my own custom mechanical keyboard!! 💗💗
just bought this, and I was surprised the legend fonts were updated, more readable and less "gamer" look love using it, though the Outemu linears have a very audible spring noise
@@TaeKeyboards ALSO, Tecware has released the Spectre 96, which is a similar OEM product to this (I even used the Tecware 96 software and it works on my ilis), good news to international fans who'd love to have this same hybrid layout
You guys should contact EasyPC. I believe they ship this product. I bought a Rakk mechanical keyboard 4years ago and it is still working now as I type this comment.
As someone who uses their Quickfire Rapid TK (Cooler Master keyboard with the same layout), this is a great layout unless you need to consistently use the number pad in addition to the arrow keys (sibelius is a big offender for this).
This design is better than TKL. I don't regret getting my Tecware Phantom. But my next will definitely be something like this! I would have just had a switch for the number pad and just had the arrows on by default. But this is the best of both worlds. Its a full size in TKL form.
i have this keyboard and its my first mech keyboard. it is fucking amazing. cant wait to put custom skins on that case. subbed because of the Philippine flag colors bro. ty for featuring this keyboard.
Just order on their website (rakk.ph) or download the Lazada app when you get to our country and order it from the app and they usually deliver it 1-3 days when you live in Manila (the Capital of PH)
I find nav-less layouts better than tkl-layouts, because cutting out the nav cluster instead of the numpad doesn't decrease the functionality at all in my opinion. The funktions of the nav-cluster are in the numpad with num-lock anyway. I use this function all the time because the keys are placed more conveniently. You don't need to integrate the nav-cluster anywhere, you can even leave it out completely in my opinion.
fun fact: Ilis means "Change" in my mother tongue and yes, I'm also from the Philippines. Quite funny since the naming and the plastic top shell being removable to change the general look of the keyboard in itself is a bit ironic. However it's worded... xD +1 Sub to you good sir!
Really nice simple design, this is how budget boards should be! Does the Outemu hotswappable version use those silly little sockets or the proper Kailh ones?
Well well well, it's been quite budget board heavy lately, but I'm constantly being impressed! I'll change it up for the next.
Much love to the Phils 😘

Greetings from the Philippines! I'm a big fan of your work man! :) Kudos to you for reviewing the RAKK ILIS! This is a big milestone for the brand :)
pacomanel back at it again
How thoughtful to paint the cover with the colors of the Philippine flag. Respect!
If Rakk pick a minimalist font design, I'll buy this instantly.
I mean I would insta swap the caps so... The only thing it needs for me is a detachable cable and shipping overseas at moderated price (aliexpress maybe?)
Unless you live in the phillipines, you can’t get it.
You can buy keycaps that you prefer.
Fancy seeing u here hideru, am vic
They have a standard keycaps in a keyboard which is the rakk kimat xt 2 the font is simple and instead the font is on top of the keycap
They're in front
I'm really impressed that the spacebar doesn't rattle. That's quite a feat in a pre-built budget board.
This is the dream layout for me! Even has socketed switches so I can put my modded Outemus right in! I just finished resoldering all the rainbow crap off of my Z77, but I might have to get one of these, it really seems like the perfect keyboard for me

Mabuhay filipinos, looking for a good mech keyboard i think this is it good job duuuude i love the way you review keyboards
The ONLY thing that's missing is a detachable cable.
I could always swap keycaps with high end ones.
RAKK supplies has been out of stock for a few months now... Thanks TH-cam for showing this suggestion and letting me know that I will not be able to get one for myself for the time being...

There is one keyboard I would love to see you make a video on. Gigabyte has a mechanical keyboard priced at around 40 bucks, with CHERRY REDS. I believe it’s called the K83, and the fact that this exists is kind of unbelievable. That’s a huge steal if it really is what it is
I thought of this keyboard, but they don't even have basic white backlighting...which is a must for me. But getting cherry reds for 40 quid is crazy.
got mine for 20usd used, sold it 18 lol
This looks like a PERFECT keyboard for me and a lot of other people... If only they shipped internationally...
You can inquire it think on their partner stores for international shipping but i would remind you RMA is hell if the item is other countries.
Wow a professional keyboard review is reviewing our local keyboard😊
This is really impressive. They should sell alternate colorway shells so you can switch it up. Also great to see Gat yellows in a stock board.
Rakk pointed out that the plate meant to be modded by the end user. That won't affect its warranty
Change the keycap font and its perfect
They already changed it 👍🏻
Bought it last Month and the Fonts now is Great!
ugh you can change the keycaps yourself so
What's the matter with the fonts?
Actually i don't mind it coz I already memorized all the keys so i don't look at it when I'm typing
Why do people not like the font I think it’s fine
@@Baetokki091 it looks unprofessional and kind of resembles bootleg china keyboard
