Koolertron programmable split mechanical keyboard
« on: Wed, 28 February 2018, 12:24:57 »

I happened to come across this: Koolertron programmable split mechanical keyboard.

It looks reminiscent of the Mistel Barocco but a little bigger (extra rows) and with more thumb keys.

Looks pretty good at first sight, and priced reasonably. Haven't seen any discussions of it here. Has anyone got one? What's it like?
Also wonder how well it would match up to the Ultimate Hacking Keyboard.

It's a rebrand of the Smartyao LY092-MINI. Here's a review from user nemui: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=89910.0

Ah thanks, must have missed that thread. Seems like a great keyboard.

Worse than a rebrand is a repricing. Upwards.
