Рет қаралды 5,216,212
6 жыл бұрынWe actually spent almost $1,400 USD on this fancy Japanese wooden keyboard from Hacoa. But how much nicer is it than a cheap one from Amazon?

$1400 can buy 4 Ergodox EZ Glow (RGB backlights) ergonomic, hot-swappable key switches/key cap, fully reprogrammable mechanical keyboards that have great mechanical key switches from the start, including wrist rests and tenting kits. And then you can spend $1400 (I’m guessing shipping isn’t free!) for 1 wooden keyboard that, while it may look nice as a piece of art, is still a cheapskate membrane keyboard that’ll wear out quickly, is mushy, and bugs will love it! I do like nice wooden things, where it makes sense. This does not make sense. They’re wasting that fine wood and all the hours of a craftsman to attach that art onto a crappy membrane keyboard internal guts.

I feel like if they were a bit thicker and had a detachable cable they might look nice. Also, maybe make the cable itself out of something different than plain plastic. Perhaps a braided hemp coating and... hmm, what for the ends of it? Maybe some kind of metal, I don't know. Edit: Wait, just make the end grip out of wood! So, it would be a nice thick wooden keyboard with a detachable cable with a wood grip around the ends and light-brown braided hemp for the outside of the wire. That would look nice.

Then it shouldn't be a usable keyboard. All they did was waste a shit ton of money on a keyboard barely anyone is ever gonna buy, and getting $1400 from a couple of egotistical rich people isn't making a profit, either. I'm sure any sane person, even one who is rich, would just get a better functioning keyboard and have it customized to have wooden keys and a wooden base instead, as that'll deffinitely cost less. Charity exists for those who don't know what to do with all of the extra money they're making.

If anything, it's a disgrace that they think a keyboard made of wood would ever even be worth $1400, just because "handcrafted".

(heck, the keyboard is clearly not handcrafted for shit. It might be hand assembled at best.)
@yattasuccess9212 6 жыл бұрын
And even if it was fully hand crafted by one person (Despite it seeming not, especially when you look at the HACOA preview videos) i wouldn't say the wood would be worth anything $1,400 even if it was practical. I wouldn't say the price is worth even being good looking enough as a novelty that it'd be worth that much money to put on Display, and it's not like it's from a brand everyone would look at for Novelty Keyboards, and it's too pricey to be worth the practicality, that it has, but it's a novelty item, and i would never pay that much money even if it had braided cables and RGB.

unfortunately, they appear to have only spent time and money on the "wood" aspect of the keyboard, and not the "keyboard" part.

I think the Hacoa keyboard was designed for woodcraft rather than keyboard enthusiasts. It definitely is a piece of art but even for someone that's really into woodcraft, functionality can never be sacrificed for looks, especially not in that price range.

I don't really understand the Hacoa keyboard. Why even make one if it has no mechanical keys, no features, basically skimp on everything quality wise on the keys? It's already 1400 bucks, those who buy it have plenty of money to spare to have better keys.

GrimmyReaper The thing is that it’s not made for guys that would care if you have mechanical keys. It’s made to sit on a designer table in a 2 digit Million Apartment in Tokyo. Guys like that don’t want to hear there keyboard or think about deckflex they want the best design so there interior designer won’t get migrane.
