After establishing itself as a brand worth considering in the mini PC market, Minisforum leaps forward with its first computer peripheral, namely the MKB i83 mechanical keyboard. Its specs and features include anodized aluminum body, double-shot PBT keycaps, Kailh MX Red switches, as well as multi-device connectivity.
Like the thousands of other bog standard 60% keyboards. Looks like it’s primary “innovation” is offering multi-device bluetooth for $99 without swappable switchs, which makes me doubt that it’s anything close to “a masterpiece of elegance and performance”.
Kinda tired of random other thing manufacturers deciding to enter the keyboard market by building the same goddamn thing as everyone else. You want to disrupt a market? Try making an ergo mechanical keyboard with swappable switches that won’t kill our wrists in 5 - 10 years for less than $300.
they promised it is swappable. Check the website https://store.minisforum.com/products/minisforum-mkbi83
For $100 it doesn’t seem bad. It has hot swappable red kailh switches. I don’t know any major keyboard that sells hot swap switches. What makes keyboards worth it especially at $300? I only have corsair and logitech keyboards but hot swappable and it looks simple to open are features new to me.
