XVX Hot Swappable Wired RGB White for PC PS4 Xbox - White Keycaps, Brown Switch

TL;DR 10/10 amazing value keyboard with undeniably amazing RBG. Well built, solid construction, responsive switches, great feeling OEM profile PBT keycaps with clear legends and great shine-through. Stabilizers aren’t horrible and have some factory lubing, but grab some Krytox 205G0 to lubricate the stabs. Another reviewer mentioned that dielectric grease is a no go as the low profile exposes the stabs to more dust than high profile boards, gumming up the grease, but I have 0 experience.This is my first actual mechanical keyboard aside from my numpad so take this liberally if you’re looking to add this to your mech collection.I have been lurking for months on keyboard subreddits, youtube channels, and price checking every site I could find. Any comparable keyboard to this is over double the price (except 1 KPRepublic board) and you will likely have to wait for things to come in stock. This is ready to go, right now, with 1 day shipping to some people.- KPRepublic ZeeYoo 65% - $78.90 but it’s a 65% so keycaps will be hard to find outside of KPRepublic, and feel a little cramped IMO. Oh and shipping takes 1 month, or 2-3 weeks if you express ship.- Epomaker GK68XS Acrylic (with Bluetooth) - $175 barebones, $115 from Banggood with coupon, $90 case only if you want to do a conversion of your existing GK68 bumping the total price to $195- Tofu65 - $108 just for the case no PCB, $166 barebones from aliexpress, oh and you’ll have to learn how to solder because there's no hotswap option.- Womier K66 - The 65% little brother to this board is $76, but has ABS keycaps, south-facing switches (good for cherry profile keycaps to prevent interference, but shine-through and RGB brilliance will be affected), and no page up/page down keys. You’ll also have to sacrifice the secondary legends if you replace the keycaps, and personally finding side-lit or even south oriented legends for 65% keycaps drove me up a wall because while there are many color options, none of them are pudding style. There was an option for reverse pudding keycaps (side-lit legends, clear top) but I don’t know about making my keyboard look like a midi controller.With some very standard mods, stabilizer & band-aid modding, then switch lubing & filming if you really felt like it ($20 for supplies), this board could easily sound just as amazing as it looks.The RGB is amazing. No I haven’t figured out how to do solid colors but the effects on this board are enough to keep me content for a lifetime. Reactive modes, non-reactive modes, color patterns and waves, it it really helps me see my desk in my dark apartment and also really brings me joy to use every day. Check out some youtube reviews to get all the functions as the included directions do not have them all.Get this board if you’re looking for something RGB, smaller than a full size, and easily customizable. The keycaps are PBT and will not fade, albeit they are thin and not very THOCC, but enough to hold you over until you get your pudding keycaps in, Gateron switches provide more value than any other switch as Cherry is far too overpriced and Otemus would likely make the hotswap Otemu only, and it doesn’t feel cheaply made at all to where I have concerns about the build quality or durability. I am so amazed, excited, and impressed with this as my first mechanical keyboard after months of checking out group buys, r/mechmarket, and watching from TaeKeyboards to the Dredgen Project, this absolutely provides a great value and great experience. The hotswap PCB and standard key sizes make customization very simple and I could not be happier. I only wished I grabbed a wrist rest as the keyboard sits a little high and the lack of any incline makes the typing angle harder on the wrists.

If you search a base mechanical keyboard (no macro, volume knob, only the base layout) this is a very good option out of the box.The keycaps feel good to touch.The gateron brown switchs give a good feedback.The board is very pretty with his translucent style working very well with the leds to give a nice "gamer" feel.Sound wise with brown switches, it's clacky like you can expect.One downside are the stabilizers of the spacebar. They do not feel on the sides are not very good and sounds kinda bad. I'll probably gonna swap them in the near future.You get tools to remove the keys and a little brush to clean dust.You have different lighting mode (static, wave, rave). You can change the intensity of the leds or shut off the lighting.You do it without using a downloaded software (read the notice).

The media could not be loaded. I love this keyboard so much. I got this keyboard with the gateron brown switches and they sound great. It’s not too loud or too quiet and it’s a little creamy too. The rgb looks amazing with the normal keycaps and I just added some macaroon keycaps for the outer keys. There is a software for the rgb lights and it’s a google drive file. It’s kind of hard to find but just look it up and you should find it. Otherwise the preset rgb settings are nice too. It’s heavier than most keyboard and it’s very sturdy. it’s definitely great quality for the price and i’d 100% recommend if you’re just getting started with mechanical keyboards and changing your switches and stuff.

So overall the entire keyboard is great. There are some issues I noticed but nothing you can't change at some point down the line, I'lllist some issues below. This is a great starter board to get into keyboard customizing. The pcb has 5 slots for the switches so you can use a lot of different types of switches on this board.1st - I noticed the box had been punctured during shipping. It came in a plastic shipping bag, definitely would have been better in a cardboard package.2nd - The lighting is great. Love the brightness and colors and was more looking forward to the white color profile after seeing some videos and it didn't disappoint, but there was an issue with the color the key caps showed when illuminated to white. You can very clearly see the shade of yellow in the type of plastic they used for the translucency under the key cap. I took some pictures to show the difference with the stock and HyperX Pudding caps and it is very clearly visible in the color. The key caps are still very solid and feel great but I prefer the shade of white I got with my other set of caps. The tab key did have a slight defect that I noticed when changing them out but it's not a big deal.3rd - The contents in the box doesn't mention anything about software so I had to Google to find that there is a Google drive available with the Womier series software to customize the colors and not just use the Fn shortcuts to select the preset colors. It is also not entirely known if you can make macros on the keyboard without the software but the software has since been updated from last year that allows the user to make custom macros so that's good 👍4th - the build is solid but there is some wobble with the siwtches. I chose the Gateron Browns and they feel okay but I wouldn't hesitate to swap them or lub them at some point down the line. The stabilizers are also translucent like the rest of the board but they do have wobble as well, luckily this board was made to be modified so some lube and stabilizer bandaids would fix a lot of the hollow clacky wobble with the longer keys. I did notice the stabilizers all sounded and felt different. There is some inconsistencies with the stabilizers too. Some keys had barely any wobble while others moved a lot and were very loud.
