That's a lot of flash; I don't know if it really offers the bang to make it more desirable than any other black-switched 'gaming' keyboard though.

Nifty... amazing this guy has over 1000 videos and still doesn't seem to have his act together.
-
Some cute ideas in the keyboard but over-all it is kind of ugly to my taste. :yo:
In the future, a detachable numpad like that could be a way to make both sides of the crowd happy. I don't think it'll catch on.

He's a Canadian geek who works for NCIX (equivalent to Newegg in the US), not a PR dude. PR is Esther's job:

As for the keyboard, another sub-par mech board. In NCIX's picture the keys aren't even straight. IMO the only redeeming feature is the removable keypad that can be attached to the left.

videos need more esther.
and that keyboard is hideous.

She's got her own, don't worry. ;)

He's a nice guy IRL.
I wouldn't buy that board though, primarily because it has the gigantic enter with the tiny backspace.
-
and for as much money as gets poured into what he does, there's very little polish. the camera and audio work is a joke, and all he does is dig through the packing material.
if it's a company channel to just show quick reviews and unboxing, i mean there are literally thousands of products to go through.
best thing is removable numpad, top mounted macro keys look cool for ppl who need macro's.
-
The unboxing video is one of the idiotic trend that popped up lately. Honestly, who cares what the packaging is like. Show us the beef and real review please. Unboxing is like alcohol free beer.
-
i didnt even watch the video. just saw it on my recommended videos
-
however, i'm going to want to see things like the software that's used to control this keyboard, it's a huge part of making this work.
Isn't that part of a real review, or even a quick review? Great majority of unboxing videos are literally unboxing, and some guy/gal blabber on and on about how awesome the product is.
-
that is true, i did lol/wtf when he actually put the box to the camera and was reading off of it. Honestly who cares about the box/packaging? that should only really, really matter for xmas time when everyone is like "WOW A BOX", i remember peeking into the gifts to see what i was getting!, now boxes are just annoying things with lots of packaging foam, that are also boxed along with shipping boxes lol.
-
That keyboard is as ugly as sin. Why would they give it that sort of industrial design? It's just awful. At least Razer's design group has got it together, even if they pick a lousy font for their keycaps.
-
iono i think linus is okay. Decent review. http://us.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=64471&vpn=KB588U&manufacture=AZIO%20Corporation heres the link to the product. The fake industrial design is fail. not full nkro isn't that big of a deal. The modular is badass, i thought of that idea a while ago, glad someone else did too.. Too bad the keyboard is ugly lol or i would buy it.
-
you know i think beauty is always in the eye of the beholder... but man i think we can all universally agree... this thing is as ugly as sin.
-
it's a very ugly keyboard with a terrible layout. macro keys should really be mechanical but the numpad is a nice touch.
-
Why go for a big ass enter key? The short backspace is a bummer.
-
Hasn't this abomination been out for some time? I seem to recall seeing it posted here before in an even more heinous bright yellow version. It has some really odd key layout, besides the bigass enter, it has a short space bar and 1.5unit control keys, and nubs are on the d and k keys? wtf?
-
Reminds me of the car Homer Simpson designed...

I have seen this before as well. If I remember correct this is a Dearmo GA9.
* khm, seems that as a new member I cant post links - I'm sure anyone interested can google this up themselves tho*
Overall this keyboard does not look too bad. I kinda like the modular design. If it only would have backlit and detachable cabling as well.
Do you guys know if there is proper review of this thing somewhere perhaps ?
