5.0 out of 5 stars sounds and feels great
Pros: mostly easy to deal with. No screws are through the front of the plate, which is a very good thing. Easy to force break. Sounds Almost as good as my zoom75 if modded out.... AlmostCons: the pcb is a little fragile so just be careful if you are opening it. its thin with flex cuts. I tape modded mine immediately to protect it a bit and take out the flex.All-in-all it's a great board for the price
5.0 out of 5 stars Solid keyboard but my W key doesn’t work
Original Bolo box it came in had no damage. Only visible damage was on the Epomaker box so it could’ve been damaged at the warehouse by Bolo. Assembled my switches/keycaps some didn’t work due to bent pins but I swapped those out with non-bent ones. The only key I have an issue is the W key which is near the impact area of the Epomaker package.If anyone is thinking of buying this barebones:Besides the W key (Gamers need the W). I would give them a 5* regardless of my issue this barebones compares to my GMMK Pro. Nice and hefty.I plan to reorder the same barebones 🤞🏻
4.0 out of 5 stars A great board, but don't buy used.
This keyboard is an 87 key %80 TKL design with an F13 key and some other tricks up it's sleeve. WIth all of it's foam, It is a high quality sounding board. It is also quite unique sounding when compared to other boards that are more "thoccy". This board sounds softer and deeper than most. This is going to be quite the polarizing sound profile for a lot of people. For about half of you, this is going to sound muffled and unsatasfying. For the other half, It will sound beautifully "creamy" with the proper switches.I personally went with Gateron Pro V2 Milkys. These are great budget switches that come pre-lubed, feel and sound great to my ear. HOWEVER, The gasket design in these makes the PCB sit lower in the chassis than most other plate mounted models. The IXPE foam is also cut VERY NARROWLY around the RGB LEDs which reduces the light that finally gets to the keycaps. Even with side printed shine through, the LEDs have a difficult time illuminating the keycaps. This is, in part, due to the non-crystal housing and diffuser of the Gateron Milky pro V2. If you like Milkys, there are other Gaterons that sound identical with crystal housings that will perform much better.Removing the IXPE layer also has and improved effect on illumination while mostly having no effect on sound. This board owes most ot its sound to the silicone gasket and Polycarbonate switchplate. The rest of the foa m largely kills case ping, of which it has a lot if the foam is removed.The whole board is a bit inconsistant in sound. For example, my up arrow key sounds identical to My space bar.ABS keycaps on this board will sound more "creamy" than PBT, but not by a ton. In fact, many users may find ABS to be TOO creamy sounding and enjoy the slightly more marble like sound from PBT to offset it, offering a slightly more tactile and audible satasfying bottoming out sound.The Software.It's pretty cringe and not too intuitive. The click and drag to select mechanism is clunkly and remapping of keys is most easily done using a second keyboard. I found this out as I prefer my pg up, pg dwn, home and end keys laid out in a WASD formation for use in Audacity. If you only have one keyboard, you have to send the keys previous function to F13 and play musical chairs until you get your layout as desired. There may be a different way to do this, but I didn't really look too deeply into it. It is "serviceable" and I have seen far worse. But it certainly could be far better. EPOMAKER, please just pay for a VIA liscence.PicturesYou will notice that the F10 is brighter than the surrounding keys. This is due to that key having one of Fekkers own provided switches in that position which has not light defusser as opposed to Gaterons solution.Final verdict.This is a great feeling and sounding board at a budget price. However, it is clear to see where corners were cut in oder to bring this to market at the price it is. It should also be known that the barebones kit DOES NOT have wireless options at the time of this review.Additional notes:I purchased this board used in "like new" condition. WHen it arrived it had one defective LED, which was a let down, but I was prepared to live with it. less than a week in, another went defective. I contacted EPOMAKER to see if they could send me another PCB. As it is used, they could offer no solution outside of "reset the board settings and cycle the light settings" I did, but as suspected, it did nothing. DO NOT purchase this board from Bolo used. I have a feeling EPOMAKER would have sent me a replacement PCB, had the board been new, which would have only been about $6-$7 more. Bolo did offer a return, however, The turnaround for me is not worth pulling all the caps and switches to send it back
5.0 out of 5 stars My First Aluminum Keyboard
As the title suggests, this is my first aluminum keyboard, so I may be a bit biased because it's my first. I liked the idea that it came in multiple colors, so I got the purple one. I'd say it's a little darker in color in person, but that's great because I wanted something a little more saturated anyway.I will say, though, with the color choice of purple, it can be hard to find keycaps that match or compliment it well, but otherwise, I enjoy the weight that it carries and the coolness and texture of the aluminum. The plate itself seemed quite well insulated and I did like the white dampening foam placed on top (I just felt bad when putting switches in since I would usually have to either create a hole in the foam or make a hole bigger). It has better gasket performance than some of my other boards, which is quite nice if I might add.Would definitely recommend this board as it is a bit on the cheaper side, so it's nice to have affordable options. I especially enjoyed the process of building it myself, too. Would recommend to anyone looking for an affordable aluminum keyboard.
1.0 out of 5 stars Very good quality for basic function... UPDATE!! BEWARE!!!
Does not appear to have QMK/Via functionality but it is a heavy, solidly built keyboard. It has a nice sound and feel due to all the foam layers. Excellent quality for the price.UPDATE: I am a collector and have multiple of these keyboards all with different switches. About 6 weeks after purchase, the electronic board inside of one went bad and could not be reset using hardware or software. Multiple of the keys in the middle of the keyboard had a broken lighting scheme and were inputting multiple keys from the same line at the same time. The manual was not of any help. Could not recover the keyboard function at all. Too bad... These keyboards feel awesome. Unfortunately, the color is no longer available, either. :(So far the others are OK, but I put a one star to warn others. There may be a problem with the internal hardware or software. It's not something you can easily flash and fix yourself.
5.0 out of 5 stars Solid, super creamy, marbly sound
I put epomaker zebra switches and XVX keycaps on mine, and this thing sounds super nice. Makes me want to type on it all day. I honestly prefer quiet keyboards, but this one I'll make an exception for. I can't think of anything you'd need to tweak on this to have it sounding and feeling great.
5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful product!!
I love the quality, the design, the product was well packaged and the support and seller are extremely nice and good people. I really recommend this product and their store. I know the issue I had was because of the shipping company but I don’t blame the seller. Really recommend them. I built the keyboard and it’s very thocc and flexi. My favourite keyboard till this day!
Incredible bargain, built to last and very satisfying
This keyboard is phenomenal. It's incredibly compact and well built. It's very heavy and it's essentially a giant chunk of well finished metal, but I mean this in the best way possible. When paired with a good choice of switches and any decent set of PBT keycaps, this keyboard punches above it's weight incredibly hard. The lighting options are also beautiful, and don't require any software to use. The F13 key is also a nice consolation for losing the numpad, and I like binding it to something useful. Highly recommend.
Du clavier bien lourd
Clavier excellent pour mon usage : Bureautique et Jeux.J'ai mis des switchs silencieux pour un confort auditif pour les autres habitants de la maison.Le clavier fonction parfaitement, le RGB est beau et facilement configurable.L'ensemble respire la qualité.Un produit que je recommande sans hésiter
Excellent
I have two of these keyboards, one of the tri mode wireless/bt/2.4ghz ones and this wired one. I got this one in black and bought some epomaker space themed keycaps that have a taller sculpted profile. Paired those with Feker white marble switches which are smooth and pretty deep. The board is really weighty and solid, great quality. I use this and the tri mode one as a teacher every day and it is lovely, I look forward to typing! Highly recommend.
Problemi col cavo
La tastiera é bellina, solida e funziona bene. Peccato che alla prima accensione il mio PC non la riconoscesse (mentre su un altro PC funzionava tutto correttamente) e ho dovuto utilizzare il cavo USB di un'altra tastiera.
Excellent product
I love everything about this, the packaging the keyboard itself and the partnership is crazy i was gonna buy somewhere else but i saw this and it looked better and its so worth it!Quality 10/10Packaging 11/10Price Very reasonable!Full Customizable!if you care about customizing your keyboard until perfection this is it.I Recommend buying teker holy panda switches aswell (you will need switches anyways) they sounds so majestic
