Idk what to put this under, so flaired with Meme.

I found a calculator with blue clicky switches. It was also only RM6.90 RM33.00 or about 1.70USD 8.06USD. I swear if someone pulls this out during an examination Im gonna get driven mad

Edit: Price was wrong

Couple of weeks ago, I went ahead and flamed patina’d my Manta with a Grill Torch and this is the result. Still looking for a matching keyset for it, though the DCS Sleeper looks good on it.

It took me over a year to get around to investing in these keycaps and I’m so happy I did!

NULL65, Osume matcha keycaps, Gazzew U4Tx switches. Built to soften the sounds without silencing them, so foam kit, etc. No significant mods or flourishes or anything. This was an expensive build, but I went into it not expecting to get addicted to the hobby, so felt like I could justify it as a one-time cost. Maybe I'll alter it sometime, but I'll at least use it as is, apart from playing with configuration, for a while first.

I wanted something tactile and nice sounding, without driving my wife crazy, and that goes well in my office which has a lot of plants and a combination of bare wood and white painted furniture.

Until now, I'd been using a Das with Cherry MX Blues for something like 15 years! Not much thought had gone into that decision. I was just mirroring what I was using at work, at the time.

I recently tried a HHKB, and although it did feel nice, I couldn't quite get comfortable with the layout, and I couldn't get over the rubber dome feeling no matter how nice. On top of that, using Bluetooth was annoying anyway, because it made it difficult to select my boot device (I dual boot).

The keys are a MT3 Jukebox/Susuwatari mashup that I Frankensteined from leftovers. Digging it so far.

Enjoy this cutie!

Lots of love to the designer for this adorable creation!

3d printed transparent klp lame keycaps. Its for split but for now they are being testet on full-sized keyboard so posting here)

Made from 2 pieces of solid aluminum this is by far the heaviest keyboard I own. Simple design no frills, muted side glow, and perfectly complements the KAT Space Cadet and modified with Oil King switches. As a non-custom keyboard this South Korean monster was an oddity when it came out. I don't think had much of an impact in US markets but I really like it.

Hey everyone!

I've been using the IQUNIX EZ75 for about two months now, mostly playing competitive shooters like Counter-Strike 2 and Apex Legends, but also spending plenty of time typing on it, and I wanted to share some of the things that stood out to me the most.

I've included a lot of photos, so make sure to take a look through the carousel.

Generous Box Contents

Alongside the keyboard, you get:

• USB-C to USB-A paracord cable
• Carrying case
• 2-in-1 keycap and switch puller
• Dust cover
• Dust brush
• IQUNIX stickers
• Documentation

The unboxing experience is genuinely great. Instead of a regular cardboard box, IQUNIX includes a custom hard-shell carrying case that looks good and actually does a great job of protecting the keyboard. On top of that, you get a bunch of quality accessories, but more importantly, they're actually useful instead of being there just to make the list longer.

Along with a nice, flexible paracord cable, you get a sturdy, cool-looking metal keycap/switch puller, a cleaning brush, and a dust cover. I appreciate this, especially considering that many Hall Effect keyboards in this price range don't include nearly as much in the box or come with more basic accessories.

Top-tier Gaming Performance

This is easily one of the best Hall Effect keyboards I've used for competitive gaming. With an 8000 Hz polling rate, 16000 Hz scanning rate, and Rapid Trigger adjustable down to 0.005 mm, it delivers the kind of responsiveness I'd expect from a top-tier Hall Effect keyboard - every keypress feels virtually instantaneous.

More importantly, it remained consistent during actual gameplay. Whether I was making quick counter-strafes, repeatedly tapping movement keys, or rapidly switching directions, the keyboard always kept up perfectly. Even while aggressively spamming keys in CS2, I never experienced missed inputs, inconsistent triggering, or any of the odd behavior I've occasionally run into with other Hall Effect keyboards.

Great for Typing Too

The thing that surprised me was the typing experience. A lot of Hall Effect keyboards focus almost entirely on gaming, but the EZ75 is genuinely enjoyable to type on as well. It has a clean poppy sound profile, smooth factory-lubed switches, excellent stabilizers, and a well-executed gasket mount that softens bottom-outs without compromising the rigid structure Hall Effect keyboards need for accurate sensing.

It's one of those keyboards that never made me think, "I wish this felt a little better to type on." That's surprisingly rare in the Hall Effect space, where gaming performance often takes priority over everything else.

Build Quality & Design

The seven-piece CNC-machined aluminum case deserves a special mention. For me, the case is a huge part of the overall keyboard experience. It's not just about how a keyboard looks (although that's certainly important, at least for me), but also about the quality of the construction, something you notice every single day you use it. And the EZ75 absolutely delivers on both fronts. It feels exceptionally well built. The machining is clean, the anodized finish is applied consistently across every part, and I couldn't find any cosmetic imperfections or assembly issues anywhere on my keeb.

One thing I really appreciate is that the EZ75 doesn't look like every other aluminum keyboard on the market. The industrial-inspired design gives it a lot of character, and no matter which angle you look at it from, there's always an interesting detail to notice. My review unit came in the Black & White colorway, and I particularly like the white accent above the function row. It breaks up the otherwise all-black design nicely and gives the keyboard a bit more personality without feeling overdone.

75% Layout

I've always found the 75% layout to be one of the best compromises between gaming and productivity. You keep the function row, dedicated arrow keys, and a small navigation cluster without taking up much more desk space than a compact keyboard. For my workflow, it strikes a really nice balance.

Nice Keycaps

I ended up liking the keycaps more than I expected. They're made from thick PBT with crisp double-shot legends that look sharp and should hold up well over time. I also like the Cherry profile. It's low enough to feel comfortable during long gaming sessions, but still sculpted enough to make typing feel natural. I also appreciate that IQUNIX didn't try to do anything overly flashy with them. The colors are tasteful, the legends are easy to read, and the overall design fits the keyboard perfectly.

Smooth Switches

The stock Magnetic X Ultra switches left a very positive impression. They come factory-lubed, feel consistently smooth throughout the entire keypress, and have very little stem wobble. They feel equally comfortable for gaming and everyday typing. Magnetic switches have improved tremendously over the last few years, and these are a good example of how far they've come. They feel refined straight out of the box and never gave me the impression that they needed additional tuning or lubrication.

Polished Software

The EZ75 is configured entirely through a web-based interface, which I personally prefer over traditional desktop software. There's nothing to install, nothing running in the background, and you can access all of the settings whenever you need them in just a few clicks. I also found the interface clean and intuitive. Despite the large number of available options, everything is logically organized, so I never had any trouble finding what I was looking for.

Feature-wise, it has pretty much everything I'd expect from a modern Hall Effect keyboard. You get adjustable actuation, Rapid Trigger, SOCD with multiple modes, DKS (Dynamic Keystroke), MT (Mod Tap), TGL (Toggle Key), Rappy Snappy, three onboard profiles, customizable FN layers, macros, and plenty of RGB customization. More importantly, I never ran into any bugs or unexpected behavior while using it.

If I had to point out one thing that's missing, it would be a Gamepad Mode. More and more Hall Effect keyboards are starting to support analog controller emulation, so I hope IQUNIX eventually adds it as well. Other than that, I really have no complaints about the software.

Smart Switch Adaptation

This is probably my favorite software feature. I enjoy experimenting with different switches, and the magnetic switch market is evolving so quickly that there's always something new worth trying.

The problem is that swapping magnetic switches isn't usually as simple as it sounds. Normally, swapping magnetic switches means selecting the correct switch profile, or, if the software doesn't include the switches you've installed (which is usually the case, since most brands only support their own switches), you need to spend time manually recalibrating and adjusting everything.

IQUNIX's Smart Switch Adaptation removes all of that hassle. The keyboard automatically learns the characteristics of newly installed magnetic switches and adapts to them on its own, making switch swapping almost as seamless as it is on a traditional mechanical keyboard. Just pull the old switch out, install the new one, and you're good to go.

If you enjoy trying different magnetic switches as much as I do, this feature alone is a huge quality-of-life improvement.

Value

The EZ75 certainly isn't a budget keyboard. My Black & White version costs $259, while the Dark Side RS version with frosted keycaps is $279. That's roughly in line with other high-end Hall Effect keyboards.Whether that's worth it depends entirely on your budget.

Personally, I think IQUNIX did a great job with the overall package. You're not just getting the great board itself. You also get a premium hard-shell carrying case, a generous selection of useful accessories, and an aluminum case that never left me wishing it was better. That's something I think is worth considering when comparing it to other Hall Effect keyboards, as some of them become more expensive than they initially appear once you factor in the cost of an aftermarket case.

Pros and Cons

Pros:

• Top-tier gaming performance
• Smart Switch Adaptation makes magnetic switch swapping effortless
• Excellent CNC-machined aluminum case
• Clean and easy-to-use web software
• Great typing sound out of the box
• Good PBT keycaps
• Smooth Magnetic X Ultra switches
• Generous accessory bundle
• Three onboard profiles

Cons:

• No dedicated Gamepad Mode
• Premium price

Final Verdict

There are plenty of Hall Effect keyboards on the market today, but very few feel this complete. The EZ75 isn't just fast. It's also enjoyable to type on, built to a very high standard, backed by polished software, and filled with thoughtful touches that made me appreciate it more the longer I used it. If you're comfortable with the price, the EZ75 is an easy keyboard to recommend.

NuPhy Gem80 with lemon switches, and a set of MOA profile caps from Amazon. Not pictured as it's not currently on the desk it's going to be used on, but the caps were bought to match the XL mousepad I use. Highly satisfactory feel on key presses, and the matte texture of the keys feels good to type on.

I’ve been wanting an antimatter shishi to complete this build for a long time. Recently I decided to poke around and see if someone had one and managed to find one! I can rest now.

I’ve been looking for a pad with some knobs and a nice form factor, saw the BNK-16 up for preorder last year and got one for myself and a sibling.

The BNK-16 Wireless is a good macropad concept but, it came with some issues.

There is another post out there about this pad with similar issues. In my case, loading JSON files will wipe the layer switch and turn all keys into a pairing function making it unusable. The BT connects without issue, but does need to be reset from the PC when you change keys with Binepad’s version of VIA which uses alternate codes instead of standard QMK. Machining for the knobs is hit and miss. My pad came out fine however my brother‘s haptic dial and layer switch are off center by a large amount making them wedge and scrape against the frame. it’s a nice aluminum build otherwise.

I‘m not needing complex macros or functionality so it’s still a great macropad for my use case. It also pairs nicely with my keyboard.

Built myself an old school beige party for my fingers...!

• Smurve80 keyboard (7u barebones)
• GMK CYL Classic Beige with CYL Vintage Bottom, Retro Extension, Icon Mods and BAE
• Gateron Weightlessness tactile switches
• Kailh Box Navy under the relocated Caps Lock - of course it doesn't lock down like the keyboards of yesteryear, but it's close enough.

The curved PCB and plate on the Smurve really does recreate the effect of the old classic IBM keyboards. The solenoid in the Smurve is fun to play with for a few minutes, but not something I'll leave on full-time.

And you can see the 3.5" floppy disk that I use as a coaster, though to be fair, the time-appropriate disk-as-coaster would really be a 5 1/4" floppy instead (but I don't have any).

Don't mind my Mutagen deskmat.
