I'm pretty happy with my K-Type. Here are my thoughts on the keyboard:
BUILD QUALITY & DESIGN: 9/10
I think the build quality is exceptional. It reminds me of a high-end Apple product, with the solid block of aluminum and minimalist design. There are no visible screws on top like on the Whitefox, only on the bottom, which I think is an improved design. I am not a fan of RGB lights, so I just turn them off, but the option is there if I ever need some lighting on a group of keys. I also am not a fan of the dead zones in the lighting in the acrylic layer - looks unrefined and a poor design choice if it was intended. Again, I just turn off the underlayer LED's.
TYPING EXPERIENCE: 8/10
I got my K-Type with Halo Trues. I did not like the Halo Trues at first, but they are growing on me. It's a weird feeling tactile switch, with the bump at the very top of the press. The rest feels like a linear switch with two layers of force: a low force period up until activation, then a heavy force period the rest of the way to prevent you from bottoming out. The switch sounds good in theory, but I'm probably going to end up switching them out for some clicky switches.
The stabilizers are not the best, but also not as bad as people are making them out to be. My daily driver has Costar stabilizers, and I would say the rattle is about on par with a Costar stabilizer. The stabilized keys do feel more wobbly and unstable than Costar or standard Cherry stabilizers, but under normal typing with proper technique, it's not unusable at all. I am a bit of a completionist, and will eventually get genuine Cherry stabilizers just to swap out the stabilizer wires and lube them. The K-Type does feel a bit incomplete without proper stabilizers, and for a $200 keyboard, I would have expected genuine Cherry. Either way, not an expensive or hard swap.
KEYCAPS: 6/10
The keycaps are just plain UGLY, but I understand it's difficult to get a nice set of backlit compatible PBT keycaps (basically non-existent at this point), and RGB is one of the main selling points of this keyboard. I would have preferred if they just gave some plain, cherry profile, dye sublimated keycaps that weren't backlit compatible... perhaps something in the same style as the ones on the Whitefox, but all white with black font.
The feel of the keycaps are actually not as bad as they are made out to be, but they won't be as good as keycaps from GMK, Signature Plastics, or feel as good as other high end PBT keycaps. The keycaps do have a gritty, sandpaper like feel which will probably be hit or miss for people - for me personally, I don't mind the texture as I've used other PBT keycaps with a similar rough texture.
Either way, if you are willing to spend $200 for a keyboard, chances are you have other keysets anyway which you will use to swap these keycaps out.
SOFTWARE: 6/10 as of 11/19/2017
On day one, the keyboard was buggy and the lighting options did not work until you flashed the initial firmware. The instructions for flashing the firmware was basically not existent too, and I had to dig around on Input Club's website and gather information from message boards to get it done. As of 11/19/2017, the software is still SH*T. Lighting options are very limited with version 0.3.1 of the configurator, and the configurator still doesn't recognize my keyboard properly as a K-Type. We were promised a lot more, and so far haven't seen it after having the keyboard for almost a month now.
ACCESSORIES, PACKAGING, OTHER FEATURES: 9/10
The packaging is a pretty standard cardboard box with a foam insert for the accessories. Some people on Massdrop noted damaged packaging, which caused damage to their keyboard. I was lucky and mine came in pristine condition.
The keyboard comes with a high-quality wire keycap puller, and a switch removal tool. The accessories it came with are pretty awesome, no complaints here. Hot swapping is surprising easy, just squeeze the plastic tabs on your switches with the switch removal tool and pull. The USB-A to USB-C cable is not braided, which I would have expected out of an expensive keyboard. Not a deal breaker, but it's roughly $8 more that I shouldn't have to spend on a $200 keyboard.
OVERALL: 8/10
It's a great keyboard that's lacking some polish. The good thing is, everything that is wrong with the keyboard is easy to fix. The keyboard has good "bones", you just have to swap out the keycaps to your keycap set of your choice and swap out the current stabilizers. If you don't like the Kailh switches that the keyboard came with, then even that is easily changed as well. Over time, the software should improve.
