  • Planning to buy a mech keyboard. Any recommendations would be awesome.

    Budget: Below 4,000.00 PHP

    Must be:

    - Color White
    - TKL Size or Less
    - Red/Brown (Silent pero clicky) (basta di maiingay)
    - Premium build (don't feel cheap)
    - Great for gaming and productivity
    - With 1 year warranty (in case of defect)
    - RGB
    - Wired or Wireless

    Thank you!

    They are owned by Xiaomi. Madami sa Lazada nyan. Ok naman quality nila.
  • Has anyone tried the Keychron K8 with optical switches? I have a Keychron K2 v2 on my home/gaming rig but planning to make my K2 my work keyboard and replace it with a K8 optical but would first like to know the pros and cons of the optical switches. Thanks!

  • Yung LED/RGB po ba ng mga Gateron switches tulad nung sa Kimat XT.2 ay nasa loob ng switch mismo o nasa pcb ng keyboard. Compatible po ba kaya yung mga 3pin Gateron switches na mabibili sa ating suking online shops? Maraming salamat po sa makapagbibigay liwanag.

  • mga sir,

    first time bibili ng mech keyboard, ano po reliable and durable na mech kb?, P4-8k po budget, nilakihan ko range para madami pagpilian.haha, no idea po regarding switches, been using old keyboards since time immemorial.,hehe
  • Great for first timers at that budget: Ducky or Leopold. Very nice builds. Matibay, pangmatagalan, at simple.

    Pili ka na lang kung full size or TKL (walang numpad). Switch (red, blue, brown, etc) depende sa bigat at tunog. Maganda magsearch sa youtube para marinig mo hehe
  • ^^^ copy sir, thank you!, nakikita ko nga sir mga review sa youtube yung brown switch daw maganda, middle ground between the blue and red switch,
  • i have blue and brown.

    Blue maingay at mas need effort pindutin. Rinig mo yung "click" na masakit sa tenga haha. Sarap siya sa bahay.

    Sa opis dati gamit ko yung brown. Di naman nagreklamo yung opismates ko. Inggit pa sila haha. Mas onti ingay ng brown. Mas malalim/mababa ang tunog at mas magaan ang pindot.
  • Hi guys,

    Can anyone recommend a shop that knows how to repair mechanical keyboards?

    When I press the letter "a" on my Royal Kludge 71, weird characters come out like:
    adhl\sgK'AFj\ASFJ;
    h'adhl\g
    adhl\sg;'AFJ;J;
    adh'

    I think this is because of my sweaty palm(pasmado). PM any recos ng good service for keyboard repair please, metro manila or cavite area. TY.

  • Hindi ba macro recording lang? Have you tried checking with the software?
  • Hindi ba macro recording lang? Have you tried checking with the software?


    never kong ginamit yung macro nya, software never din ako nag install. 4 months na sa akin yung keyboard, and today lang sya nag exhibit ng ganyang symptom. tried on both wired and bluetooth mode :(
  • @Raincloud

    Bro, hindi kaya natapunan yan ng kape? dun sa RK61 ng pamangkin ko di niya napansin na natabig nung alaga niyang pusa yung kape hehe. Eto gawin mo, Bili ka ng contact cleaner sa autosupply na lang wag na yung wd40 kasi mas mahal pa yun, gamit yung straw, sprayan mo yung 4 sides nung swithc na may problema. ulitin mo lang sa pag spray on all side kung needed.
  • @theDUD3

    SAn kayo nakabili ng keycaps WASD, i have K8 din kaso nabakbak yung "D" keys eh.

    Or any suggestion san makabili na good quality

    Thanks bro, mukhang sa pawis ng kamay ko nang galing. bumili ako ng contact cleaner, applied a bit of heat na rin from blow dryer, pero nothing happened. try kong kalasin sa weekend and see how it works from there.
