Anyone know if it could be a decent board? pretty good design imo. Cherry MX switches.

If it wasn't for the ugly branding, the case design isn't actually that bad, kinda neat actually. I'd be surprised if that used actual cherry switches though

You can replace keycaps, not like ducky has no branding either...

Also about the Cherry MX, look at the bottom right of the picture...

Website says that models come with Cherry red, brown, blue or black.

"Pick the key switches that suit you from the four most popular MX CHERRY switch colors – black, red, blue and brown."

Technically, that doesn't say that those are Cherry switches. <g>

I don't see any branding on it...

Right above the arrow keys (also not a fan of backlit boards that have the logo on the spacebar). And lots of companies like to use "MX" switches e.g. clones. But I guess if they actually are using legit Cherry switches good for them.

Didn't say I was a fan of ducky branding. I don't like any obvious branding

edit: also, $163? no thanks
