i bought them from dvinikey.com which i dont know anything about, but had the model i wanted in stock and everyone says buying direct from keychron is bad if you ever need to actually talk to someone.

hmmm. i dont think i like clicky switches. not too sure about these box jades.
|
# ¿ Jul 28, 2023 23:02 |

ok, they sound a lot better with the keycaps on. just pressing them on their own they sound a lot like mouse clicks though lol. this will work, but i think what i really want is just very heavy linears. maybe later.

echinopsis posted:you see what I mean about the click tho huh yeah i think its probably just an issue with clicky switches in general. these box jades are nice -- they feel good to type on and arent wobbly, but the click doesnt sound anything at all like an old model m, yeah. it sounds like a million mice clicking at once when im typing. i like how heavy the springs are and how snappy the key response is though. im also not constantly bottoming out on every key when i type like my old one. a+ feel on these things. the sound probably wont bother me enough to do anything about it for a while though.

got a new keycap set on now and im liking what i got. kind of pingy, esp the spacebar, but feels good to type on. this message is longer than it needs to be just so i can keep typing.

echinopsis posted:I was looking at this board, it looks so good ya i like the look of the keychron retro colorway boards a lot, and prefer tkl over 75%. i wanted a q3 in retro and could never find one. the second listing is confusing. they do make a v1 with and without a knob but the listing says knob so i'd assume thatd be the one you get? the pcb is hotswappable too so you could always change the switches later if you wanted to. i have those same keycaps and they are pretty nice as well. nice texture to them.

psiox posted:I need a new keyboard. Cared too hard and got an Ergodox EZ that honestly hasn't been great for me, but at least a previous employer paid for it. Anyone that formerly was a model m kid have anything they swear by? (look, i literally grew up with a model m and am mad it's a hipster thing now) there are model m repros you can get that arent too $$$ otherwise the closest thing youll get is heavy box switches on a custom/semi-custom keeb which arent quite the same. what part of the model m experience are you looking to re capture

Kvantum posted:Go look at Keychron.com and look at all of their various layout options. Find one you like and then if you're in the US, go buy it from Amazon.com because Keychron's support is terrible outside of China. This is good advice I run a q3 with box jades

i mean, im not buying one, i just think it looks cool. and keyboard is the right size and scope for that level of gaudy, dorky stupidity. 'truck people see me sitting in in public' is obviously a different thing entirely. the other big difference is the keyboard's actually shipping.

i have a keyboard with box jades, and while i like it quite a bit, id like some switches that feel very similar but less loud for night-typing. maybe box burnt oranges? idk. not sure i want to go down the rabbit hole again.
