#keybored The NEW QwertyKeys Boards are Here - QK75N... But Should You Care?
This Video is Sponsored by PCBWAY! PCB + CNC + 3D Print and More! www.pcbway.com/
So apparently, it's been 2 years since QwertyKeys has launched now the Legendary QK65... Instead of a brand new form factor, they decided to go NEXT GEN and launch the new iteration of the beloved QK75 from last year... But... do we care now? Should we?

This intro has everything: the gatekeeping bro, lube joke, rizz theft combo, vin diesel, s23 moon debacle, regular vs box creams, the sly "get a razer keyboard n00b" type of jab. It's beautiful. I've already listened to this 5 times. Great video as always! edit: great video

I've built my first custom keyboard about half a year ago. I just got a regular kit from KBDfans. I still don't get why people claim it's complicated, you just need to add the correct components to your kit, that's all. It's basically adult legos, just like building a gaming PC or soldering an amplifier kit.

Every time a new keyboard comes out I always worry that I'll regret getting my zoom75, but to me, it still remains the best board you can buy in the sub $500 range.

@guessit5036 7 ай бұрын

I am in the same board (no pun intended), except I am still waiting for my batch to ship. I wanted to get OG QK75, but since it was hard to find any both in stock or GB, I went for Zoom75. Don't get me wrong, the board is beautiful, but there are so little decent reviews about it. Like, does it have the same latency as QK or does the glass finish fade away in the long run?

⁠@@dalebeefsteak119what the person above me means is that the zoom75 is 100% not the best sub 500 dollar keyboard nor is it the market that zoom is trying to fill. They are trying to market in the 200 dollar ish range of keyboards not the 500 dollar range. If you wanted to get a keyboard for 500 dollars you could get many many many better keyboards. Not shutting on budget boards I personally own an Akko mod 006, qk80, and Neo65 and I love all of them but at the same time I could never claim them to be the best sub 500 dollars keyboards even though the qk80 and Neo65 are comparable in quality to the zoom75

@rudivandoornegat2371 16 күн бұрын

Nice ad, because finally I know where I can go to make my own keyboard. I would make a 4 split spacebar (thumbkeys) and also indexfinger keys between the 5-6, T-Y, G-H, and B-N, 2 between each pair. Many of the keys at the left and right edge would go to the middle, but as programmable and macro keys.. Important is that ? and ? will be separate keys as well as : and :. I think that would be faster than DVORAK etc. layouts. The side will have some space and that I would fill with macro keys.

How is the QK software support since this supposedly doesn't support QMK/Via? I've been bummed out for a year because I somehow didn't see your review of the QK75 until a few days after that group buy ended. Now I can't decide whether I want to buy this or wait to see if/when they make another exploded 75% keyboard as they hinted they would in their discord because I prefer an exploded layout.

This keyboard is honestly super confusing the more you look into it. For a kit of its price, the layout support is really underwhelming. It also is strange how every mounting points are on the PCB and yet you don't get a solder PCB to build this one plateless. And having to flip the keyboard around just to grab its 2.4 GHz receiver sounds super annoying.

@qwertykeys2119 7 ай бұрын

1. reversed inserted switches have conflicts with cherry profile keycaps so we only use it on cheaper projects such as neo; 2. solder PCB can't fulfill our 1k unit moq; 3. it's a storage compartment which was never offered in our previous designs. Hope this clear things out for ya :D
