Finally got through a rough work week to catch up on this. Really great overview! Regarding telling us more than we probably want to know about keycaps -- absolutely not! I heard everything I needed to hear! If anything, I'd love to see comparisons to even more varieties, like the EPBTs you showed, or Domikey. I'm glad there's another solid Cherry profile competitor out there. Personally, I'm only into double shot ABS for the colors. In my collection, PBT is my favorite for feel and sound. But overall, the scene is a lot more competitive than it was a year ago, and that's great to see! More options are great for us consumers!

@tetley3737 2 жыл бұрын

Legends look good, except the Shif t key (space intended). Not sure why so many non-GMK legends have this extra spacing on the 't' in shift, but it's something I noticed and now I cannot unnotice it. Great vid as always!

@anhex.5747 2 жыл бұрын

A computer renders the characters by many points, and takes the edges as the points closest to the left or right. Hence, the edges of the horizontal parts of the f and t are the ends of the characters, and as the vertical parts are further away they seem like they have an extra spacing.

@tetley3737 2 жыл бұрын

@@anhex.5747 Thanks for the reply Anhe. I figured that was the case between the f and t with many sets, but GMK (and some other doubleshot manufacturers, including some pbt sets i own) compensate for this and make the spacing look normal/correct. GMK has done this for years. Other manufacturers should do this as well. The spacing just looks wrong.

The first time I ordered a GMK set was the Modern Dolch V1 GB. When they showed up at my doorstep, I forgot that I had ordered them a year and 3 months prior. Only GMK sets I have are the GMK Led Zep and the Modern Dolch V1. I'm excited for Drop's offerings in this space. I haven't purchased a keeb since my DKON1687. Purchased a White Fox off someone before this but messed up the board since it was my first time soldering. Great vid as usual!

If you use a full 4mm travel switch like the C3 Tangies, they definitely interfere! You can actually feel the cap hit the fat part of the switch pretty prominently. If you use a long pole switch, or a 3.5mm travel switch, they don't allow the cap to go all the way down to the switch top housing, so no interference. The same is said for GMK caps. For example, Gat Box Inks, Oil Kings, etc. do not interfere in north facing with GMK or other similar cherry profile caps!

Just comparing to "premium ABS" in this review. I feel the 2 are somewhat different in that they do have different strengths and weaknesses. PBT does have a much higher resilience against shine, but they also do have some issues with spacebar warp, etc. PBT also tends to sound a bit dryer and denser (which might be good also) while ABS (good thick ABS, not cheap stuff) sounds more "glassy." At the end of the day, it's all about preference, and for sure there are both premium ABS and PBT!

As these seem to be a very high quality alternative to GMK in a familiar profile, I hope that we will get to see designers utilize it and get official designs/colorways similar to what Cannon Keys has done with NicePBT. Appreciate the thorough review as I was very skeptical about this release, however, this seems like a really good option!

The problem with Drop is that historically, they have a tendency to eventually screw over their designers by abusing their IP. If a designer ever chooses to work with drop, they have to do so with the knowledge that they'll eventually be screwed over by drop's corporate overlords

@@Keybored I don't think many respected or known designers will touch DROP after what matt3o went through. They're a shameful company.

I mean you went into heavy detail and im thankful for that, but I already was sold on DCX when you said 4 months. Im not paying 200€+ (especially when oyu need ISO/int sets aswell) for some plastic and THEN still need to wait 2 or even more years. I might not even like that colorway in two years from now. GMK dug its own grave. I just hope drop starts including ISO-DE/ES/FR/NORDIC sets with their new DCX keycap sets which would make me buy them instantly.
