DROP ALT High-Profile Mechanical Keyboard — 65% (67 Key) Gaming Keyboard, Hot-Swap Switches, Programmable Macros, RGB LED Backlighting, USB-C, Doubleshot PBT, Aluminum Frame (Kaihua Box White, Black)

This is a DIY keyboard of course. I took it a few steps further. You may also consider doing the following. Bringing this into the realm of a truly world class board at not much additional cost. As it stands, this now very well may be my end game.First of all, all these mini keyboards do not weigh much. So slip and slide on your desk. How did I remedy that? I laser cut out the entire bottom of the case. I replaced it with a machined to fit brass billet. Now it weighs a whopping 18 pounds. That took care of the movement issue.Next I made some interesting Panda switches for it. Halo True with Box Black. Very similar to the True but a little more forgiving. I am a touch typist and do not bottom out on any MX switch anyways.Then I added top of the line PBT KAT 1.75MM key caps. Of course the light does not shine through, but again I am a touch typist. I hardly mind. I actually keep the backlight on 1 for longevity. A little tidbit: if the backlight is left on 1 theoretically it should last 75 years. Unlikely however. Although with Hot swap who cares.Finally I built a custom wood "rocker" wrist rest to match this boards 1.75" height. I built it out of rare Lemon wood.In closing it came out to about 600 bucks. Still less than the least expensive completed Korean. I feel it is better than most any board with MX. I have 5 Korean's. Until I got this my daily driver was a HHKB Pro 2. I have not touched another board since I got this. Honeymoon? I doubt it. This is right for me. Sure, the switches are different than Topre. I like them better in fact. Even if you do just a standard build of this board it is top quality. I would instantly choose it over the KBD67 or other such boards. Even though this is made in China. That hardly matters here. The quality is proven. Even though mine is beyond a regular build of this board I doubt I look back anytime soon.Caveat: I think Amazon states I bought a full board. I indeed purchased the barebones. I am not sure how that occurred. Obviously I did not pay more to rip apart an entire board.I forgot to mention they must have updated the stabilizers everyone complained about. Mine has no stabilizers at all. It just has "dummy" switches on the sides of the larger keys and spacebar. These do not seem to be hot swappable. They are not actually switches with a spring. they are just a slider to stabilize the key.Also if you buy the complete board I would not be afraid of Tai Hao key caps. Even though they are not thick they are Double shot POM and very sturdy with a very nice feel. They are a good $60 set. KAT they are not however. Although if you want the shine through they are a very good choice. As good as anything else shine through.This is a very good board and priced accordingly.

This keyboard has a top-notch build quality. I'm familiar with the custom keyboard community, and have done a great deal of research about keyboards before buying this one. I have a custom keyboard already, and I'm fairly aware of the build quality you can get for this type of money.While you could theoretically get a keyboard of similar quality for less money, this is an excellent option for anybody looking for custom build quality without the difficulty of actually building a custom. While it isn't that hard, it can take a great deal of time to individually order all of the parts that you need, since they're often parts of group-buys or are out of stock.This keyboard has a fantastic case build from aluminum and it weighs a great deal, which keeps it steady on your desk. The lighting is fantastic, and it comes with PBT key caps, which are what you should be looking for. The milling is smooth and the finish gives it an attractive aesthetic.It has a 65% build, which means that while it doesn't have a number pad or a function line, it still has directional arrows and a couple other useful keys.It's a fantastic keyboard, and the only downside is that you have to use the QMK software, which is not so easy to use if you not are tech-savvy. If you don't want to use that software, you can simply use the existing configuration of the keyboard, so if you want to customize, you have to figure that you.The only other complaint I could have is that the stabilizers are not good, but they are also not particularly bad (at least the stabs on my keyboard), but, it's very easy to replace them and you can do that for less than twenty dollars.I'd say buy it, if you want a keyboard that will last you pretty much forever, you should get this. You can change the switches any time that you want and you aren't limited in your selection. While this keyboard may cost a lot, it is made of excellent materials and allows you to continue customizing down the road if you want to.

High quality build that will certainly last longer than my parent's marriage. Premium feel, real boujee.Has some real weight and heft.This is deceptively a chonker and in the heavyweight class despite the cute size.Keycaps feel great and lots of QoL. You'll keep fingering it that's for sure.A con will be that it is very costly compared to competitors of similar quality. Ain't no messing with a broke mf. Alternatively, going custom on a similar budget may yield a more personalized feel of similar quality. But you pay what you get for.Best to get a braided cord as well for it as while it does come with it's own USB C cord, it's the standard vanilla kind. You might as well spend on one if you can afford this.Overall, great keyboard. Pricey. But real good.I can type URL's and work on spreadsheets in style and comfort.PS: Tested this on some sweaty Apex platinum lobby ranked games and least to say it's definitely a great keebs for gaming as well as working.Attached is a picture with a Corsair full 104 kb for comparison.

Calidad de construcción: los materiales con los que está echo si reflejan la calidad del producto.Es muy fácil de configurar mientras no sean cosas muy específicas (por que para eso se tiene que saber programar ). La interfaz web de configuración es una muy buena idea para los que utilizamos Linux para trabajar, simple mente se configura se descarga el código y se flashea descuerdo a las instrucciones.Ideal para las personas que como yo solo vamos a comprar un teclado y que esperamos que por lo menos dure unos 7 años o más.El único contra es que por defecto el teclado se ilumina pero esto se puede cambiar en la configuración de la página web.

If you are all about quality and the experience, this keyboard is for you. Switching switches is easy, aluminium frame makes it very sturdy. I realized I got the old model, with no adjustable magnetic legs to raise the height. Slightly disappointed, but I'd already changed out all the switches, a little late to be asking for a Return.

Keyboard arrived quickly. Worth every cent. Amazing build quality, sounds great and looks even better. Ordered the Kalih Box White switches, and love them. They feel and sound awesome.Best part is the weight of this thing. Its heavy, which in my opinion, gives it that ultra premium feel. Easily the best keyboard I've ever used.

This is a decent board out of the box. You're paying a premium for USB-C, RGB with good software, hotswap, and a very solid-feeling and looking frame. There's a chance you could do better for the price point, but those options are relatively hard to obtain, especially in Canada. If you want something like this *now*, this might be your best shot.Things aren't perfect: being able to see individual RGBs on the edge is honestly an eyesore (I turned mine off), stabilizers aren't great though better than the normal drop, and the case and Halo Clear switches are pretty pingy. That said, if you're buying this board, there's a good chance you are open to the idea of opening things up and getting a bit messy, and I give Drop credit for making this very easy to pull apart. After clipping/lubing the stabs, adding a bit of foam to the back of the case, and lubing the switch springs, things sound and feel fantastic and I can see myself using this for quite a while.TL;DR: 4/4 as-is, 5/5 product with some TLC
