If someone wonders: LEGO is known for sending cease and desist letters to KZfaqrs who call plastic bricks 'Legos' if they are not made by Lego. Even if the term 'Lego' is widely used for plastic bricks in general.

A simple angle piece or headlight mounting piece could secure the dongle down Also, missed a brick on the counter at 8:20!

How will I be able to type with my feet now.......

Just so others are aware there's another Lego keyboard that I greatly prefer and doesn't have such goofy features, called the Kit Adam from KBD Craft

8:20 missed a "Brick" there :D

I love it when they can't say what it is...at first 🤣 This looks pretty cool to play around with, finally a keyboard I actually want to build! Nice work presenting this Plouffe, there was a ton of stuff to unbox!!

4:37 It's not WiFi, it's just wireless via dongle. Awesome keyboard.

Had to tap out at 21 bricks

I thought this kind was a silly idea at first but it’s really growing on me. Especially how you can easily use it as a secondary keyboard with clear keycaps that are bound to macro or something.

Isn't the Adam Keyboard the first "brick compatible keyboard" or did this one actually come out first?

If i had the disposable income to buy a ton of "bricks" to customize that i would 100% get it. The customization options you can do are endless to make it fit a desk scheme, if only I was creative enough to set up a cool action scene or something lol.

Combining this with [Redacted] technic you could probably make some really cool joysticks and stuff…

I just have to say that I dealt with this company as they were starting up and finishing the kickstarter for this keyboard. I cancelled my backing because they were taking advantage of their fans by running a "giveaway" which they then proceeded to cancel last second before then backtracking and completely changing the rules and.... well the story is long. TL/DR: awful company, cool product

Imo, LTT should let the people that showcase stuff keep them for like a week and allow them to make videos on their own time if they want. When the ShortCircuit video releases, just link to that video! I mean, come on, look at how excited Plouffe is here!

New fetish unlocked "I love (keyboard) feet" - Plouffe 2023

This is great for fans of the brick motion picture. My favorite character is brick flying night mammal. This video should be sponsored by The Brick furniture store. It's a Canadian thing. Love the major league gaming switches.

I want this as a split board. Without the huge bezels (just 1 or 2 pins wide as opposed to 6), but with all the brickness and customizability for folks like me with limited desk space.

In Germany we call bricks "Klemmbausteine" and i think it's beautiful

i totally want to see Plouffe do a full [ B R I C C ] build with this [ B R I C C ] keyboard shame that the [ B R I C C ] doesn't let you add more functional modules like extra Numberpads or knobs, etc

Im surprised you havent checked out Kit Adam,its also a 'brick' inspired keyboard but the diffrence is that one you need to actually build it yourself

It would be a shame if I try to update te firmware and BRICK my keyboard 😂

Maybe you guys should've gotten the "brick" company to sponsor this video so you could say it's name

The plastic interlocking bricks LEGO made technically no longer protected by copyright laws. So you can 3D print those bricks. (Which is also why Megablocks and this keyboard exist) But LEGO sets are still protected as those are creative properties. And the LEGO name is a trademark, it's understandable they don't want you to call everything a LEGO... Just like not all supercars a Ferrari.

Hehe that's a nice idea, I have actually made a keyboard myself following JK Brickworks' design. He is a 'Brick' Masterbuilder and KZfaqr, and I followed his design to butcher . . eh I mean convert an old keyboard to a 'Brick' compatible one!! It was awful to type on, but a fun project nevertheless!!

If they just sell these keycaps with the printed art I’d definitely buy those

gotta love how one company bricked this whole video. 😀

You heard it first here folks: "I love keyboard feet" - Plouffe 2023

So if the firmware bricks the keyboard, is that a positive or negative?

Just a heads up, this isn't the world's *first* "brick" compatible keyboard. The i-Rocks K76m Fun had a compatible faceplate back in 2016 which is the earliest I know of, not sure if there were any others. Also used weird "alps inspired" switches that iirc had mx style stems but differently shaped housing and ended up being strange and not super alps-like.

Would have been nice had Melgeek not screwed up the orders. PSA I wouldn’t suggest buying this as Melgeek isn’t that trustworthy rn, the people who bought the board has had issues with their items and shipping issues.

its a nice novel gift idea for a [BRICK] fanatic but practically, that thing looks like its going to become a crud magnet

"Build your own scene or whatever".... Recently I've been re-watching Stargate SG-1, so my first thought would be to build the control deck from the Goa'uld ships

Guess somebody got BRICKED UP with this keyboard, specially had to point out his excitement on the variety of feets that he got.

I backed this keyboard and actually got it for sub $200 so idk where they're getting their numbers. It's a great keyboard with a nice sound profile which sounds better than I expected. I will say though, make sure you pick the right one. I picked what I thought was an off-white version but it was actually a light pink X_X. I also added on some more BRICKS for decorating and other accesories and I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN THEM! The keycaps are good quality but they are WAY too flat and uniform so it's hard to type fast when your fingers run into the sides of these deeply pressed squares. I threw on some other keycaps and it's a dream to type on now. It does take up a good amount of your desk though close to a full sized keyboard but without the number row. You can use the software to reprogram the navigation keys to turn them into a number pad if you wanted. It's switches connection types flawlessly, the software is good and easy to use, and it's a ton of fun to build around to endlessly customize and theme your set up. I highly recommend it but I'd have another good keyboard as a back up to switch between. That's what my main driver is for (the QK60). Btw, I feel like this review really missed the mark and didn't highlight the right things. They should try it for a day or week first.

When you're showing size measurements on screen, PLEASE put them in Normal measurements as well as American

It should come with those seperator tools that come with big lego kits.

To the editor: you missed one "Bricks" which was right after the sponsorship (8:20). As punishment you will take 27 shots of any alcohol when you edit the next video.

Seems like if you wanted to, you could change the height of each key by using a one flat thick brick. So you could make the keys some white contour however, you like them. At the very least, you could have them accelerate up in separate, or, you can alternate Heights between columns as an example.

the internet has corrupted me, I was expecting some joke with the "I love keyboard feet" at 4:12 lol

The keycaps are cute, but each one is just a little bit wider than a 2*2 brick. Ignoring the function row, the 5 keyboard rows are actually 12 pips when measuring along the keyboard case (rather than 10 pips). Typical keyboard key spacing is 19 mm (0.75 inches). 5 rows is 95 mm. Lego pips are 8.0 mm apart (centre to centre), so 12 pips is 96 mm. It seems they didn't bother designing a keyboard PCB with narrower 16mm spacing. Cherry MX switches are 15.6×15.6 mm at their widest, so they would physically fit. Of course that'd sacrifice the ability to use typical MX keycaps, but who buys this board to use *regular* keycaps on it?

Somehow this is the most innovation I've seen in a keyboard in a while.

A novice keyboard enthusiast. All keyboard reviews I have watched (in and out of LTT). Everyone says they don't know if the keyboard is lubed or not... so my question is... if reviewers can't tell if its lubed or not... what's the difference them not lubing them in the first place if you can't tell?

This company is going to spend their entire existence dodging LEGO lawsuits

a keyboard made of landmines would hurt less to step on.

Plouffe Keyboard Tips is a channel I would 100% subscribe to!

I wonder if this would work with the wireless charging mod that Linus showcased yesterday considering that this is a wireless keyboard. Still, this looks fun (albeit expensive).

You should check out the KBD ADAM from KBDCraft, lego built frame!

Would be cool if the brick keyboards attachment points where contacts, so if you attach a wheel, it could use the wheel as a knob for brightness or volume and attach any switch on the keyboard and it would just work as as a new key, knob or switch

Totally missed the change to have the Linus face printed for the review. I can only shake my head at the lost opportunity

as a huge fan of BRICKS, I think this is the coolest keyboard ever. I really want it. I wish you'd visited your nearest BRICK store's "build your own BRICK minifigure" thing and made BRICK minis of Plouffe and Linus to dress it up!!

dude you reminded me I can change my keyboard angle, I have it for 3 years and I never done that. much better now, thanks

NGL i thought my screen was dimmer but then only realized the setting different was dimmer 😂

"Big, Bee, Beats, Bears, Battlestar Galactica"

The reason The LEGO Company acts this way is they want to crack down on the misuse their name. Many people call the product by the company name (with an s at the end) instead of by the product name. If I was The LEGO (all caps no s) Company and people called the product Legos I might be irritated too. LEGO is a company name not a product name. LEGO says when generally referring to their product, you can call it LEGO bricks, LEGO parts, or LEGO pieces. I am not sure if LEGO is as strict with specific part names for example cheese slope vs 1 x 1 x 2/3 slope. I will have to ask my friend who worked at LEGO Land if they have specific on how to call specific part names. He just mentioned how they were trained to talk about the product as a whole.

You did van Gogh dirty

Canadian joke incoming: I wonder if you'd be able to pick this up at THE BRICK.

That chime with the counter was pretty annoying... The joke isn't funny enough to call that much attention to it.

I’m “bricked” up just watching this!

i absolutely ADORE companies and products that will include lots of frivolous packaging and other unrecyclable chachkies, that will exist for a few hours or days and then go straight to the landfill. we need more like this.

10:49 That sounds a lot like The Sims keyboard, I think Jonathan will approve.

This keyboard gives "I am playing bricked up" a whole new meaning.

This product looks & sounds exhausting. To be fair, I'm probably not the primary market because I'm already a 40k fan, which in terms of monetization means my whole enthusiast budget is already accounted for in both time & money. But at least it seems like commenters have alternative suggestions for anyone else who found this board wanting.

there is one keyboard that has its case built out if Lego and is supposed to sound like Lego snapping together when typing

This is cool but the Kit Adam from KBD Craft is the preferred Lego keyboard for me, I would love to see that on short circuit 🙂

It'd be really cool if Lego partnered with this company to make the shell and bricks to lego tolerances, and have this company deal with electronics and assembly. (and that way we'd get an ISO version)

Only as expensive as lego is. Lego people are used to paying a premium lmao

in german we have to say Klemmbausteine, so dont complain about having to say bricks

I have the kbdcraft adam which is100$, comes with everything you need to build it and its usually in stock

Here we are getting a glimpse at how Plouffe was at 5 YO. :D

2.4ghz doesn't mean it's using wifi, it's just using the 2.4ghz spectrum

10 year old me would of loved to put together and customize one of these kits. Adult me looks at this like I look at a cool remote control car.. I'd fiddle around with it for an hour then toss it in a bin never to be looked at again or probably just give it away to someone who doesn't know what a good keyboard is.

Worlds first MANUFACTURED brick keyboard, this idea itself isnt new

That is such a freaking cool keyboard 😍 not sure about the practicality thou

lego is already the default name for every brick toy, even if they send cease and desist letters i bet that in court they lose the case the same way that every 4x4 is a jeep.

How about the full "Brick" compatible PC build there is a "Lego/Brick compatible" 3070

4:37 It supports wifi?!? Or is this just yet another case where they didn't fact check their own writing before filming? Edit: I just checked, it doesn't support wifi. Just another case where LTT gives out misinformation as usual.

Disclaimer: We are not responsible if you "brick" your computer with this keyboard.

I hate how it has the width of a full size but the layout of a tenkeyless, worst of both worlds whoo

Sorry, no hate, but I couldn't finish this video. The brick counter sound just got so infuriating when it hit double digits... Maybe don't do a sound with a counter when it's so frequent. Felt like getting messaged in Teams constantly while trying to work.

that brick counter got old real fast

Perifractic at retro recipes made a full C64 from bricks. I bet this idea came from him.

somehow the high end keyboard scene has gone from high quality amazing peices of hardware to use... to somehow just making things that are silly that seem to only exist to be expensive for no actual reason.

That's some Sarah Butt level of packaging attention to detail

Couldnt you just stick the dongle brick part to the keyboard/other part tp keep it in place? Also about the feet, you didnt follow the first rule of wall building with bricks

You guys can put the Lego click sound each time he mentions Bricks for counting purposes.

Brick counter was 100 times more annoying than him actually saying brick

I feel like there is no point in them selling their own bricks because the people buying this probably already have their own collection

3:56 Feet enjoyer and Brick enthusiast. Just like me!

Lego is perfect for customization, I was actually using Lego Technic as a laptop stand and it was best laptop stand I ever had.

0:53 I'd really love it if you guys could stop just saying that a battery has "XYZ mAh" without specifying the voltage, or better yet doing an actual kWh number.

3:41 Editor: *No i dont think i will*

5:23 If you did that, you could get the dongle stuck in the keyboard.

Now I want to see a full "brick" gaming setup. Pc mouse screen the works it could be fun

"only the best" and "it fits the white aesthetic" should be said in succession 😂

"I love keyboard feet" - Plouffe

The feet came out while sliding cuz for more strength they should be in the vertical orientation and not horizontally

Okay but how hard is it to clean out the Dorito dust and Mt Dew splashes?

$300 isn't actually too expensive relative to other custom keyboards in the community.

He's a brick... house. He owns a monitor, as you'll soon find out!

You could actually build huge feet and use it to type while standing at your desk.
