Monsgeek M1 with NEWTOY/wukds 1970 keycaps. Little bit disappointed that the UK ISO keycaps I bought didn’t provide keys with the correct legends for the UK layout. I’ve hidden (most of) them with novelties but it’s a bit annoying still. Love the Monsgeek so far, massive upgrade from my previous Ducky One TKL!

Board: Leobog Hi75 in beige Switches: Gazzew Black Boba U4 Caps: Sumgsn gradient pink (double-shot PBT, OEM profile) The Leobog feels a lot higher quality than its price would suggest, although opening it is made quite hard by the knob resisting removal and the screws not being the best quality. (And you kind of need to take it apart, as not all switches readily push in from the outside due to the PCB flexing.) Also note that the “beige” colour is actually closer to peach than beige. I’ve seen it described as “milk pink”, which is more accurate. The caps were cheap(ish) at £36, but feel really great. It’s the kind of softness and smoothness you’d get from silicon. Not for everyone, especially not if you prefer texture, but I’m enjoying it! The switches, OMG, wow! These are my first Boba silent tactiles, and I don’t think I’ll ever need another switch. Such a pleasure to type on! Great feeling compared to silent linears. (I fully understand people who complain about “mushy” feeling now!) So quiet too! Overall, I’m really enjoying this build, although the quiet is simultaneously a blessing and a downside, as I think the case has great potential for sound.

-Linear Red switches -Unbranded XDA profile keycaps The Hi75 I got is a bit rough around the edges. I already had to wait ages for the seller to ship it out; for it to arrive with issues is the cherry on top. The mounting plate was poorly cut and horribly bent. Several keys are misaligned and I've already tried different keycaps and switches and the problem persists. I don't know if there's anything I can do to fix this alignment issue myself. I'm probably gonna send it back and not even ask for a replacement. If you also have a Leobog Hi75 and you're having input issues, please read the following: Press Fn + W to put the keyboard into Windows mode. If your Windows key still doesn't work, it may be locked: press Fn + Windows key. -Mac users press Fn + E -Android users press Fn + Q -iOS users press Fn + R When you change modes, the assigned letter's key will flash red 3 times. Then, when you hold down Fn alone, that key will light up white, until you let go.
