So you can store your password safely and not have to remember them ever again. Thanks again to LastPass for sponsoring this video to learn more click on the link below, so I was shopping around to find a mechanical keyboard to do a video on and this one caught my attention for several reasons: the price, the rating and the design. It just looks like a really cool keyboard and, judging by the reviews I thought hey, maybe you guys might be interested in as well. I did accidentally buy an extra one and instead of sending it back, I’m just gon na do a giveaway on it. So if you guys are interested, all you have to do is drop a like and leave a comment below on what your favorite part about. The keyboard was I’ll pick a winner next week and I’ll announce it on my Twitter account and yes, this is worldwide. So the keyboard is currently going for $ 60 in Amazon and it comes equipped with Hawaa, no switches they’re, basically equivalent to Cherry MX blues.
By no means am i a switch expert guys. I cannot tell the difference between these and actual Cherry MX blues. All I know is that they both sound and feel the same.
To me. People online say that the hano switches are slightly heavier to press than Cherry’s, which is actually true because they have an actuation force of around 60 grams. You still get that satisfying click and the tactile bump that you expect from Cherry blue is while typing I personally don’t like blue switches, I’m not a fan of the tactile feedback and how loud they get while typing or gaming.
My preferred choice is always Cherry. Mx Reds, as far as build quality, the et robot is built really well for $ 60. I’M impressed that they were able to use an aluminum frame for most of the keyboard.
In fact, the only plastic piece is the back cover, there’s no noticeable flex anywhere on the keyboard, nor is there any bowing in the center overall, very solid construction and it’s pretty hefty. I know let’s talk about the keys, so this is a full-size 104 key anti-ghosting keyboard with a Windows lock and a full numpad. The keys are nicely spaced and have a concave shape to it, which helps identify the center of the key that way, you’re, not accidentally pressing other keys. I also didn’t notice any noticeable wobbling on any of the keys once again solid construction. As far as the font, I’m not a fan of it to be honest, they’re, nice and big, which is great. But it looks like something out of a sci-fi movie.
Some of the keys are harder to read like the letter B and the number 6 which to me looks like the letter G. The keyboard does come with media controls, however, they are hidden which is kind of annoying. You have to actually look in the manual to figure out which keys do what, for example, holding a function. Key and pressing f8 will skip track and the f7 pauses and plays sometimes I would forget, which key does what so accidentally press the wrong key and instead of pausing or playing it skips to the next track, which I find kind of annoying. What I would I prefer to see is text on the side of the key labeling.
What each key does while holding down the function. I don’t think it’s gon na be a deal-breaker for most people. However, I guess it’s a lot better than not having any function.
Keys at all, sadly, the keyboard does not come with a wrist rest. Nor do you get any extra key caps. Instead, you will find a key removable tool and two extra switches. In case you need to replace some speaking of replacement. You can actually hot-swap this entire board, judging by one of the reviews left on Amazon for this keyboard. So if you guys are not a fan of the blue equivalent switches, then you can swap them out with the ones you prefer on the bottom of the keyboard. You’Ll find the standard, rubber feet and legs that give you a bit of tilt. Another thing I don’t really like about the keyboard is the cable running straight from the center of it it’s actually more of a nitpick than anything. Really I much prefer keyboards with the cable coming out from the center, because I do like to route the cable straight underneath my desk for a much cleaner look, but unfortunately, what this keyboard I’m not able to do that.
Finally, let’s talk about the lighting, which I think is the main selling point of this keyboard. I do want to start off by saying that the RGB lighting on this keyboard is on par with other high-end keyboards like courser and razer, which is crazy, considering it’s only $ 60 aside from the keys being backlit, there’s an ambient light that wraps around the keyboard. From side to side, which i think looks really cool, the keyboard has 18 backlit lighting modes and 9 ambient light modes. You can control the color of the lighting with the function and the right arrow and the brightness, with the up and down arrows and the left arrow controls the direction of the lighting to control the effects you have to use the function and any of the six Keys above the arrow keys, the plus and minus buttons control, the speed of the lighting and finally, to control the ambient lighting around the size of the keyboard. You have to use the Print Screen key if you guys want to see all the RGB effects that the keyboard can do. I actually made a separate video going through every single lighting effect with this keyboard so check out the video. If anyone is interested, I mean it doesn’t have a wrist rest and the function keys aren’t visible, but hey um. Does this keyboard kick ass and pretty much everything else? This is honestly the perfect keyboard for anyone. That’S looking for a solid RGB Mac keyboard, the high premium price that they would have to pay for it. I just wish they had a white version of this keyboard, which I think would look way cooler and a penny.
Much wraps up. My review of the et robot keyboard, if you guys enjoyed it and want to see more types of keyboard, videos on the channel feel free to drop a like.
