Title: What kind of Sejin Electron mech keyboard is this?
Post by: Tony on Sun, 23 January 2011, 08:35:54

Keyboard experts, especially Korean, please take a look and specify what its product number is and type of switches it uses. This Sejin Electron mech keyboard have the numpad on the left side of the board, which is good for the left-handed.

There are two variants. I believe the white one only comes as a rubber dome. There is a black version, which comes with Futaba switches.

Thanks sixty and Daniel Beaver.

Daniel, how is your experience of that keyboard? Does the Futaba switches good for typing or gaming, or both? How's that compared to Cherry Mx switches?

They're a little odd, but not bad switches. Obviously modeled after buckling spring but somewhat lighter, and with much more pronounced tactility and clacking on the way up... like I said, a little odd. The resulting noise can be a little irritating.

Yeah I have a Sejin EA-1010 that's white with Futabas.

I like the switches, they're like browns on the way down, and blues on the way up.. Sort of..
