Title: Can any one identify this key cap?
Post by: M_Sang on Fri, 01 February 2019, 03:24:52

Does some one know which profile and brand of key cap in the picture? (the white one with the heart , the F12 is  tai-hou oem profile for reference)

Looks like cherry profile keycap with dye-sub print. Quality of print is pretty bad so most probably unbranded / Chinese.

what's the underside of the white cap look like?
tai-hao are OEM profile
my guess is that the white cap is a dyesubed pbt cap that's probably cherry/dcs profile or a shorter OEM row than your F12 key.

here's a great thread by jacobolus on all the different keycap profiles: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=68550

I got their answer later that is cherry profile. not sure which row it's .

Almost looks like a bad copy of one of these (http://www.keypop.net/product/translucent-red-8-bit-heart-keycap) from KeyPop.
