I had no idea cherry profile was so low
« on: Fri, 20 February 2015, 18:46:04 »
I just got my GMK Dolch caps the other day (I'll post pics tomorrow), and the first thing I noticed was how low-profile they are. I've been using Tai Hao Olivetti replicas for a while on  my MX board and the Dolch is actually taking some getting used to. I gotta say though that the deeper f and j keys are baller as hell, and I love the way that it changes the sound - its deeper and more satisfying (lel).

But yeah, thanks Zeal for buying a ton so the people who missed out on the GB still have a chance to appreciate the Cyan-Dolch combo.

Took a little bit to get used to for me too, but now I don't think I can ever go back.  Slowly outfitting all of my keyboards with GMK / BSP.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I guess from OEM, cherry would feel somewhat low

I just tried DSA on my Infinity (normally has Vortex Cherry-profile PBT on it), and I gotta say DSA feel actually higher profile than the Cherry profile caps.

I think your right. I can't find the pictures now but I remember seeing them side by side and DSA was definitely taller than at least R1-3.

Yes. Cherry profile is much lower then OEM and slightly lower then most rows on SP DSA.

Wow, that is pretty low. Although it still looks a billion times better than DSA. I really wish there weren't so many keycap group orders in DSA. -_- I felt DSA at a meet and instantly hated it, it felt like the keycaps on the rubber dome I threw away when I got my Monoprice, except weirder because of that rounded top thing. *shudder*

If anyone wants to compare more keycap profiles and missed the thread where those images in Keyzus’s post came from:
