Just like the other person, I have no idea about the brands listed, but I’ve been looking for a numpad recently. Looked it up and seems like this is going to fit my needs perfectly. Thanks for sharing!
Never heard of any of those brands but I dig the look of the blacked-out one in the middle. Are the keycaps shine-through with per-key RGB?
The only keycaps that are shine through is the ones in the top left (TM680), none of the rest are.
These look awesome! I’m curious what your favourite switches are out of the bunch? I’m also interested in a comparison between the Boba U4T vs MMD princess, if you have any thoughts to share!
This is a good question. the bobas have cost me 4x what I paid for the princess, and part of me might like the princess more, they have a more noticeable bump. My only complaint about the princess switch is that they are very clacky. I have swapped out the springs in the bobas to 45g and it has made them feel more poppy and emphasises the tactility.
i gotta say: Puddings are somewhat nice, but always too gamer.
I reckon, “Pudding refined” with milky white bottom and Cherry style legends would look nice on most keebs.
I have seen an XDA set of puddings which I am looking at getting (I don’t use this keeb, but will be nice yo have all XDA)
Love the gentleman XDAs. I use them myself.
I really liked the feeling of the mechanical keyboards. I’m a newbie at this and I bought one, and got pain in wrists within a few days. So had to stop using it and go back to my almost flat Logitech.
It seems it’s required to use palm rests to have a good experience?
Maybe you just need switches with a lower weight requirement to depress then?
Lighter springs make tactile switches feel so much better too.
Was trying to think what a tactical switch was for a second there, assumed it was a gaming thing, then realised you meant tactile, lol.
Those are my bag, great feeling without being too loud.
By design, mechs are quite a bit taller, because the switches are taller.
Unless you’re a “floating” typist, I would recommend a palmrest.
