100% agree that an EC pcb should be an option. That's what I love about my Atom68, and I'd hate to have to harvest it just for the aluminum case. Also, I agree with the poster above who said that's what makes this board different from everything else out there (that is, the EC switches). If it's just another 65% mx board, there are many available right now.We certainly won't give up the EC PCB, the case was first made for the NIZ 68, and the MX pcb is just an additional option we added for a variety of options. We are also considering whether to sell the assembled PC case and aluminum case electrostatic capacitive keyboard.
Also, I'm not a big fan of the font for the "Atom II" on the bottom. The Niz badge on the previous edition looked great, but for me the font used here for the Atom II is just not attractive.

If you could have qmk and via compatibility aswell as a daughterboard on the ec pcb, that would be incredible.emm,this is difficult.

I'm hopeful that Niz have learned some lessons on how to properly manufacture and ship custom keyboards from their first GB, since I really love Niz capacitive switches. My original Atom68 Alu was shipped with no stabilizers(Still don't have them all btw), and to this day I can't screw the keyboard flush, even after taking apart the pcb and keyboard more than 10 times and troubleshooting for hours. I really want to love your products so hopefully this round will be better QC'ed.

whoa thats scary. so the keyboard is basically still non functional to this day?

We should have dealt with all the feedback. The new Atom 68 will be produced in the factory where the famous team made the case. Besides, our team will learn from the experience of last time and control the quality of this product. We look forward to your satisfaction

Excited to move my Atom 68 into a yellow case!yes,yellow top and bottom be possible :D
The renders don't show yellow top and bottom, will this be possible?
Need an EC add-on pcb, please consider. Many people like me don't have one to harvest, would like an additional option, even if it's pre built.yes，will be a additional option for EC pcb

Will there be other colors available?Depending on the result of IC, we can also do blue, dark green and so on

do you like this？
Fantastic to see! Also, any word on the logo/font on the bottom? I'm not a fan, but I wonder what others here might think. Just feels like there could be something a fair bit cooler there (an image of an atom, or something maybe?)
The layout is probably fixed by now but I am not a fan of the 3 x 1u keys between spacebar and arrows. I would much prefer a bottom row with 2 x 1.5u so: 1.25 - 1.25 - 1.25 - 6 - 1.5 - 1.5 - 1 - 1 - 1. That would be more 'modern' and aesthetically pleasing I think.Because we have no intention to change the existing EC PCB scheme, it should be difficult to implement what you said
could you guys possibly add an option for "apple silver" similar to the OTD keyboard anodizing. Also similar to the color of anodizing on the Dalco 959 mini that's in IC right now. I think most would agree that neutral silver is the most neutral anodization color no contest.yes，i agree，when we made atom Ⅰ, we made Apple Silver, but only a few people chose it, so we didn't make it the first choice this time. Anyway, if IC suggested that more silver, we would keep the silver options.
Also should we assume a return of the macbook style hard rubber feet? I think those are really nice.As for the pad, we may have to wait until we get the CNC Proto from the factory, match different parts (including the foot pad and Eva plate), and finally decide what kind of hardness of elastic parts

will there be an option for full PC case? (Top and bottom made of PC)yes，will be
If this is intended mainly to be used with EC, and MX is offered as an option, why not include the ability to purchase the assembled EC version, or a configurable kit for EC as an option with the components needed?The option will be changed in GB. Thank you for your suggestion
Idk, the way it's currently set up seems somewhat counter-intuitive
Split backspace please!!sorry，It is a little difficult to implement at present, because the PCB scheme is well established
any chance for a polycarb or abs plate?will be Polycarb plate
Debating whether to wait for the entire kit or to go ahead and order the keyboard, assuming that the a la carte pricing is reasonable to purchase the aluminum case later on. Is there a large discrepancy predicted?About 20-30usd
Just want to double-check - are these Niz switches are compatible with any MX-style keycaps?
Any updates on the GB?
