Title: Originative Carbon Black PBT keycaps, review coming soon
Post by: LiquidEvilGaming on Mon, 04 April 2016, 17:58:25
Got these shipped from Originative directly and they just shipped today slightly ahead of the Massdrop order, will be doing a review once they arrive and i get a chance to look them over put them on one of my KUL's and see what i think about them.

Very eager to see how these came out as for the price of the ABS set offered awhile ago they were fantastic for the money honestly and i reviewed them highly as such.  I have high expectations for these as well.

Will post some initial pictures here before i do my review and before i put them up anywhere else once they arrive.

Can you post some impressions, pics please? I'm kind of interested but didn't really decided yet on this set.

I actually did a little further down the page, there is a link to a ton of comparison pics between the ABS Carbon set and the new PBT Carbon set and the HHKB Keycaps along with a video.

Subscribed to see review! I heard great things about these caps in terms of how they look but thickness not so much.

They are not the thickest PBT i have used by a long shot this much is true, however they have a fairly decent sound profile to them.  Which is something i should do a video of when i get a chance.
