Owlab and Qwertykeys and now... Neo are back to continue destroying r/mm flipper dreams. Who needs a Korn or a Neko when you have a Neo?

Man this thing sounds good. My Envoy just arrived, and here I am considering this one as well!

[ImOnMy]

Thanks for sharing the video and typing tests! Super excited for more folks to experience gummy o ring (used my bakeneko60 a ton and am waiting on a January 60). Any thoughts on how this compares to the bakeneko 60 and/or 65 in terms of feel? Seems like it’s unquestionably a more premium case

[TypingOasis-ASMR]

It's a perfect video from the real visual beauty to the sound. I watched and learned a lot!! I will visit you often in the future. Please upload a good video.

[albertko]

Honestly as good as this is... I'm really looking forward to the Neo Arisu they're working on. And this is a periodically in-stock?!? (Edited for spelling)

[alexossan]

Love that color coordination, gives quite a premium feel. I think this might be the one that would scratch my wireless itch of the Envoy. Although I've grown dissatisfied with the coarse QK anodization after feeling how smooth the Envoy is, so I might just wait for a 65% trimode by another maker in the future...My QK80 Black is a literal fingerprint magnet. Any little bit of oil would leave a mark on the keyboard that is extremely hard to remove, unlike the Envoy which remains smooth and prestine and always easily clean with a gentle wipe.

[markustechcorner]

This is cool, I noticed you have those green translucent caps, just wondering how's the pairing for this green colourway?

[Keebz.G]

yes i bought one and loving it and with the 2.4ghz mode . its so good...for the price .

[Randomlosername]

Super hyped for this board. Any chance of you checking out the Cupid 65 by Chaosera?

[highgaugedesign]

This board has a lot going for it, but the front aesthetics are too ordinary for my taste. However, I do appreciate the side view and the back design.

[schtendo]

this would be a great board to replace your Polaris for switch reviews bc so many people will own one and it sounds great

[poppy]

What are the biggest differences between the 2 mounting styles? I have heard that gasket is livelier but thin, and the o-ring is fuller and muted but adding/removing the batteries can alter the full/liveliness of the board, but wanted to get a second opinion on this. I am planning to use this on an fr4 plate with plate foam only and Gateron summertimes (don't want it to sound too sharp/thin which is another reason I'm asking). Thank you in advance and another great video!!! I always love your dad jokes, they remind me of my dad 🤣

[CraigLillie]

These have too few keys, all my keyboards have 104 keys or nothing at all. 🤣 But since the makers name is Neo, shouldn't the only color options be Red or Blue? 😸

[notkws]

the neo switches were made by MMD if I'm not mistaken

[switchprocontrollersplatoo]

The British racing green caps go crazy

[BrendanMcGinley]

"The best keycap set of all time" -- a gentleman of good taste. Whence those metal novelties, though?

[whafffer]

Hey! what cable are you using for your keyboards?

[andyderp]

excited for a QK75 rerun or v2 as I missed the QK75 saw the MKC 75 but wasn't interested, a good 75 with a numpad I'll place on left side of me would be perfect.

[glowiboi]

Please compare the Prestige Silent linears (42gf) with the Haimu Heartbeat!
I've only ever found the Pristige Silents on the Varmilo Minilo board!?

[wrathkeebs]

will you happen to get a review for a kbdfans pluto? also as always nice review!

[jkumoml]

Anyone know what the gold enter and esc keycaps are?

Edit: nvm, found it: GMK British racing green keycaps. Next time put the keys you use in the description please…
