Opinions on the Wooting 80HE?

It's between a TKL and a 75%, reminds me of the KBDfans Odin 75. I'm guessing its gonna be 200 USD.

This will be the "endgame" custom keyboard for gamers.

I'm fine with it but people in live is crying because it's not a TKL, what do you all think?

I don't get why companies just do standard layouts, it's always these weird layouts that don't look very nice and aren't very functional in comparison to the layout's they are based off.

It was the same thing with the QK100, people really wanted a full size and they did this ugly looking layout that isn't as fuctional. An 1800 would've looked a lot better.

I think it's so they look innovative and put in more work but I think people just wanted standard layouts.

Still, more layouts are a good thing, but more looking forward to the hall effect stuff that geons is doing.

I hoped more of a TKL... But it seems like they rather go for what reddit spends the most money on.

Companies trying to justify their existence by churning out new products all the time instead doing one thing and incrementally improving that.

That is not a TKL. I have a TKL from Wooting. Still can't configure it. Because no, it is more important to do new stuff than to make sure that stuff works.
