Hey, everyone! For those not following on Twitter, I was on a long-overdue honeymoon with Lisa in the South Pacific - hence the abrupt gap in content here on the channel. Here's to hoping the YT algo doesn't absolutely slay me 🍻
@@mytube001 I'm a one-man show. I script, film, edit, upload, and create thumbnails for nearly every video you see on this channel. I also handle all of the channel's marketing, promotional, and business endeavors. If I could clone myself, I would.
@@GregSalazar Ah, ok! I don't make any videos myself, so I have no concept of how much time it takes to make one video. Well, this video popped up in my feed so hopefully it will in many others! :)
I love this keyboard. I used to get finger pain after long-term use of my razer blackwidow, but I can game with this board for 8 hours with zero issues. I think it's mostly because of how much flatter/slimmer it is compared to the Widow, plus it takes less pressure to press my keys all the way down in comparison. On top of that, it's a thousand times quieter which is definitely a plus for anyone in game chat/discord with me. My fingers are less traveled now but are definitely happier 😂 Plus this keyboard was specifically made for gaming :) Another thing... My WPM went up by 15 so I think it's safe to say that the experience is completely subjective to the user. Good video though, I respect your opinion :)
do u know how this keyboard goes with e-sport game like CSGO or smth like it? im semi pro cs player, dont really like to play on classic cherry or smth else cus of big buttons on keyaboard like u hade on razer widow or i had on hyper x

So at 5:28 i get confused to buy it or not cus i didnt get why u said dat.

Dang it!!! I'm looking at trying to get a MidRange low profile Mechanical keyboard. I just broke my TecWare Phantom L I absolutely loved the keyboard and the feeling of the keyboard. But when I went to buy a new one it's like $50 and I had gotten mine for $35 but I noticed there was a Cooler Master sk630 for $60. I'm starting to wonder if this keyboard is a deal at $60 or if I would still be better off with the phantom L. Wish I knew some good budget mechanical low profile boards.
@@BlackIronGamer ahhh gotcha haha, well the funny thing is I'm the exact opposite :D i can type relatively fast though it's just that i sometime miss the keys cuz of the one finger typing against 3/4.
Still can't decide which key switches I prefer. I have a corsair with cherry reds and another keyboard with cherry blues and love them both for different reasons. The reds see more use when people are around but I like typing on both. Think I must be a little strange as I've noticed most people have a strong preference one way or another
To anyone thinking of getting this keyboard, I had the SK621 and sent it back. Got a Logitech g915 TKL instead and it was the best decision I made. Bluetooth connectivity issues, and the typing experience truly is awful. Your fingers hit neighbouring keys and you make a lot of typos, I think aesthetically this is amazing, practically, not so much.
after about a year this is my favorite keyboard ever, it's a complete stinker with the all-flat keycaps but the newer designed keycaps are so much better, the actuation is very light so i find it perfect for games
I usually call that deck piece the "mid plate" since it's technically in the middle of the keyboard... but deck plate seems good as well. Like do you call it a "bonnet", or a "hood"?
always interesting to see new switches - when I jumped into mechanical keyboards I tried a Cherry MX brown model and liked it over membrane, but then fell in love with clicky blue switches. These days Razer's goofy laser switches on the Huntsman Elite are my go-to, but as a more 'affordable' alternative I keep a few with Cherry MX blues around as well. Cooler Master seems to have forgotten that some of us like to type.

From a strictly looks standpoint I like it ALOT better then the K95 platinum, but the keys didn't feel as good and they need to add feet adjustment. I bought the SK650 and returned it after a week of really trying to give it a chance, maybe V2 will take me away from Corsair
Holvolox its not super common but if you could you should try to get a corsair k70 lux cherry red mx switches. I have it and its 20$ cheaper than the rgb version. You can find it for usually between $60 to $90
CM is at the mercy of the Topre Corporation in regards to getting the unique keyswitches that the Novatouch used, and I doubt Topre would be willing to work with them again because a new Novatouch would directly compete with their own Realforce RGB
It's basically like an apply magic keyboard, apple had good keyboards like the AEK with ALPS switches, but they decided to make the current line of magic keyboards. This new slimline from cooler master is kinda like that. I wish CM would just bring back Novatouch.
Something like this would theoretically be better for esports, shorter key travel with no bump means faster and more predictable keypresses. It's for this reason that quite a lot of professional fps and moba players use membrane keyboards, and this could be considered a more "premium" option
I got the Havit 390L low profile keyboard. (LP blue switches from Kailh). type a lot faster on it than a standard board, and i get the nice clicky tactility. similar to leaf switches actually(in how they work). gonna get another one to switch out my other normal mech keyboard as well. Edit: didnt actually see thats what you linked down below lol. anyway, its a great keyboard.
i was just done collecting/buying/ hoarding every razer mouse and keyboard incl the pink quartz. now logitech and coolmaster are the next one to collect.
For games i think its great idk why so many hate, and the hate its all about 'its not trully low profile, its hard to type, bla bla bla' well if you are a noob dont buy it kappa xd
Just get DUCKY / IKBC / Varmilo / Filco ( if they even still in business ) / Leopold / and you're golden....Fnatic KB ain't bad either nice and simple, clean. If you want to spend more money, get RealForce / HHKB I guess ? I'm currently using a cheap China brand KB yet I'm happy, It's rather decent actually even for China and it's sold on MassDrop as well, Durgud. Go check it out. There's even MagicForce / Vortex is great as well. All are China too. Zowie Celeritas II isn't half bad either, Optical switches, but for Typing may not be a good KB. I heard there may be some issue for those who have to double click really fast as well....the KB won't let you do that.
Cherry low profile switches are just donkeyshit, from the ML to this. If anyone was serious about 'low profile high quality switches' Coolermaster would have gotten Kailh low profile, as they actually feel like switches, and not just cherries attempt at emulating a scratchy membrane.
Coolermaster already perfected the gaming keyboard, but rather than just re-hashing the same product over and over again like Razer, they're doing something different.
@David Whitfield They're not the one who invented that. Wooting did the Wooting One using Flaretech switches back in 2016. There was also Bloody, who uses A4Tech's Light Strike LK switches in 2017. The Razer Huntsman uses those A4Tech switches, btw. Razer does not invent much of anything new, most of their best products use existing stuff that has been re-branded, or were first born as collaborative efforts.
@David Whitfield Logitech didn't design the switch, the switches are Omrons. And Logitech and SteelSeries are taking a different approach, they are thinking of ways to improve the RGB backlighting, rather than the entire product. And honestly, I'm willing to give a pass for Logitech on keyboard, considering the MASSIVE improvements they've pushed to the gaming mouse market. As far as I am concerned, Coolermaster perfected the "Cherry MX keyboard" with the MK750, which in itself is only a minor improvement over the MasterKeys Pro L. Unlike everyone else, they also offer the 80% M size that is fairly uncommon outside of smaller brands. Now they are making more niche products, like the one in the video. I would expect they will make a gamepad next, ala the Razer/Belkin N52, the Logitech G13 or the Razer Orbweaver (see what I did there with Razer?) Razer excels at collaborating with others, like Belkin or Microsoft, and then making revisions on the product, e.g. N52 to Nostromo to Orbweaver, or Microsoft Habu to Razer DeathAdder. Which is not necessarily a bad idea, just look at Logitech G13 or G600 and contrast those with the Orbweaver or Naga.
Up until halfway through the video I was really into buying this, despite the fact that I might be facing a learning curve, the price for me is what's keeping my wallet sealed..
there is a cheaper brand on amazon called Anidees that has a low profile keyboard for about 60-70 www.amazon.com/Prismatic-Mechanical-Keyboard-Extra-Thin-Switches/dp/B0791LD8K9/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=low+profile+mechanical&qid=1551917899&s=gateway&sr=8-5
these keyboards look FANTASTIC and go with the whole industrial/modern/simplistic theme i go for on my desk and in my room. however, the problem with these? the keycaps are almost 90 degrees on the sides and your finger doesn't slide across the other key sometimes when you are typing, so you can feel the other key beside you when you having your finger on another key. Also, they have tiny little "dips" that go down in the middle of the key..instead of them being either flat or a TINY bit raised. not sure why..but i was looking to get this and typed on it for a little. it was very very odd and i was saddened, because i want a new one. the thick mechanical keyboards are nice, but i type much better on a very low profile keyboard aka chiclet style
I bought one. It is bad even in gaming if u have a lot inputs. I just couldn't discern the keys.Wish CM could make a smaller keycap set to save it from barely usable to okay-ish usable.
Science Studio detachable cord is huge for me, also enjoy the travel distance but as y said not the greatest for gaming. The lack of dedicated drivers is also great because I have a specific set up and extra drivers tend to interfere with my very specific input set up.
So in short; I'm keeping my Logitech G610 Orion...I can't even begin to understand how horrible it would be to use anything other than Cherry MX Browns... they're just so amazing.
You think this is me _mocking_ it? You've come to the wrong channel. I gave my honest opinion after a week of use. This has nothing to do with the switch and everything to do with the dimensions of the key caps and board itself. I literally showed my WPM with two different RED switch keyboards. The difference was night and day. Watch the video next time :-)
@@lukevega77 I previously was using the G610 Orion Red from Logitech. Wasn't a terrible keyboard, but I wanted a change. Cherry MX Blues are growing on me, I like the clicky feel and sound of them. I don't mind MX Red switches, little more quiet than Blues obviously and require much less force to press. The K70 from Corsair I'm loving it feels sturdy, it's got some weight to it. The body of the keyboard must be metal like sort of a hard aluminum. The 610 Orion feels much more light and not as sturdy. Overall is decent. It's got an adjustable backlight much like the K70, except it's white compared to a red back light on the K70.

What is your recommended everyday keyboard with brown switches?

yes. you can get them for 80 to 90 dollars now! got mine on sale at best buy for 79
may I know your glasses brand & type?
why does people not make a video about the sk621? Like does 60% (kinda 67%) keyboards not make it or what is going on?
im gonna stick with my full size keycaps. much easier to use and i like the longer travel distance
It costs the same as the HyperX alloy elite RGB, and I thought that was expensive
From a strictly looks standpoint I like it ALOT better then the K95 platinum, but the keys didn't feel as good and they need to add feet adjustment. I bought the SK650 and returned it after a week of really trying to give it a chance, maybe V2 will take me away from Corsair
I ordered the Sharkoon PureWriter RGB/Kailh Red switches. Much cheaper and better keycaps
What keyboard would you recommend for 40-50$? I prefer quality over RGB aspect

This has nothing to do with the switch and everything to do with the dimensions of the key caps and board itself. I literally showed my WPM with two different RED switch keyboards. The difference was night and day. Watch the video next time :-)
“Looks” cool, but I’ll stick with my K70 RGB MK.2 Low Profile RAPIDFIRE.
I have the K70 Lux that has the Cherry MX Blue switches.
LordIron nice! I’ve had good luck with the Corsair keyboards.
@@lukevega77 I previously was using the G610 Orion Red from Logitech. Wasn't a terrible keyboard, but I wanted a change. Cherry MX Blues are growing on me, I like the clicky feel and sound of them. I don't mind MX Red switches, little more quiet than Blues obviously and require much less force to press.
The K70 from Corsair I'm loving it feels sturdy, it's got some weight to it. The body of the keyboard must be metal like sort of a hard aluminum.
The 610 Orion feels much more light and not as sturdy. Overall is decent. It's got an adjustable backlight much like the K70, except it's white compared to a red back light on the K70.

So sad seeing you tying yourself in knots trying to find something good to say about these keyboards.
Low profile keyboards are sad, like typing on a glass tablet.
Not always the case (including with this keyboard here).
@@GregSalazar No, you're right. I mis-worded that, too. I should not have stated my opinion as fact.
Your hair looks grayish
What has that got to do with anything?
It's light reflecting off my hair. I'm 24. No gray hair here.
@@GregSalazar lol i know but it looked gray. And dang your only a few years older than me.
Reds are garbage switches. I would rather type on razor blades.
