The THOCKIEST Keyboard I've Used! - Everglide SK68 Review (Carbon Fiber Plate)

The SK68 Alkaid ABS keyboard kit from Everglide is not what I expected. So much thock in one board, with ton's of potential thanks to the hotswap sockets, and some of the best stabilizers I've ever used!

A very impressive little keyboard and loving the cotton candy’esk colour scheme with the carbon fibre plate 🥰😇👍. The thocc of this board is actually something I like despite being a heavily favoured silent switch user and great to see that despite my favouritism of switches, Everglide have given me another keyboard choice here. Thanks again Portly for another great comprehensive review 🍻🎉

You are a godsend. I bought the SK68 Aluminum and had no idea how to get it paired. Thank you for putting that image in there for us to use. Typing happily on it right now 🙂

Everglide have been known to use south facing sockets on their SK series, would have been cool if they did it here. That with CF and the sound profile would have made it a real stand out in the budget segment.

[michaelthompson]

I’ve used both north and south facing sockets and tbh no difference at all! Many swear by south facing ….. but imo that being picky. You choose a keyboard because of looks, materials used and sound associated with switches and keycaps.

Managed to pick the acrylic version up for 50 Euros used!!! It's been really good so far

I've had the matching numpad with the carbon plate for a while now with zilent v2's. I feel dumb that I only found this now, but now i know the everglide logo.. big facepalm. My finnicky gk65 is gonna be replaced soon, mainly because the led's are so much dimmer compared to the numpad. excited to get my hands on this bad boy and complete my setup, fellas, this is my endgame.

I went to the link to buy it and I got a 404 message.

Hey there, hoping you can help out. I bought this board the other day and am having trouble with the software. The only software I can find is in Chinese, do you have a link to the English software? Thank you in advance, and thank you for the great videos!

Edit

Nevermind, turns out the issue was I had it in BT mode still. Putting it into the USB mode allowed the software to detect the keyboard, then the english switch was pretty easy. Thanks anyway!

i though pc plates were deeper sounding then carbon fiber...

Can you remove and use without the battery?

[canal-dev]

The battery of this keyboard is no good, with less than 1 year you can't even turn it on anymore

Is there any delay when using wireless connection?
