Unboxing: Deck "The Legend" Ice Tactile Keyboard

[shrumpkin]

any updates on this keyboard. i want to get one of these. do you like it?

[RickyTomatoes]

@shrumpkin Honestly, I had no problems with this keyboard; I loved the tactile feel, the ruggedness and fancy lighting. I wasn't too fond of the font used on the keycaps, but I suppose it was part of the "style".

The reason I switched to a Topre was because I wanted something with a softer touch, and quieter sound (so I could hack away into the night, lol).

[shrumpkin]

How do you like this keyboard? I really want to get one of these with the tactile Clears. I hear that you get so used to the backlight that any other plain keyboard afterward is plain boring.

How do the keys and switches feel?

[shrumpkin]

I want one of these so badly. How do you like it?

What slightly annoying to me is that it's got the curve on the casing but no slope on the keycaps. I'm currently using Filco 104 brown cherry. I'm looking to get one of these to try the clears, but the deal breaker is the lack of sloping keycaps. Would you say it's a bother that there's not sloping?

[RickyTomatoes]

@raeaddor What do you mean by sloping keycaps?

[GeorgeVu]

Tactile? Is this MX brown switches or smth else??

[RickyTomatoes]

@GeorgeVu The switches themselves are tactile feedback switches (Cherry MX1A-C1NW, clear).

[GeorgeVu]

@RickyTomatoes Thx bro. I used to like this one very much. But i just can't afford it 16x$, not shipping fee included. I think the Filco FKB104M/EB would be the most suitable for me! Anyway thx for the unboxing vid. Nice work ;)

[RickyTomatoes]

@GeorgeVu Thanks!

Maybe its just bad audio or something, but that sounds like youve got the linear keys, not the tactile. The tactile key should make a click sound mid stroke. Not just when they bottom out. I couldnt hear the click in the video. Is it a silent "click" ? Just thought id mention it.

[RickyTomatoes]

@MrRadReg It's the audio. They are tactile keys.

The extra key in the bag is your Escape key if you dont like the standard Esc. key pop it off and put the one with skull on it in it's place.

Great keyboard, I really do recommend it, I've been using regular membrane keyboards for 11 years, with this one that I'm using right now, there really is a huge difference, I love this keyboard.

[JaccoSW]

Nice, I've got the Frost version also with the tactile keys. (Cherry MX Clear)

I still love this keyboard and it's a dream to type on and pretty good in games as well.

You do realise though that you could have gotten the PS/2 version and swap it with a usb cable later?

[LostRituals]

Very beautiful, especially those keycap fonts :P

[moemarino]

i want to buy myself a new keboard and want to go with a mechanical keyboard  but dont know wich 1 to buy

[yakill]

@moemarino

if you don't need :

- lights

- using 100 keys at same time

go for a cherry G80-3000, cheapest keyboard using the "Cherry MX switches"

(Deck's "The legend" uses them too)
