To anyone who think about buying this... When I was getting into buying pereherals for my new tower I just built, I knew NOTHING about brand exept I heard the name *razer* around sometime. (this was around 2013 by the way). Anyway, I head on to my local computer store and saw this nice *gaming mouse* and *gaming keyboard* and *gaming mousepad * from e-blue. It was written mazer on the box and stupid me tought it was those razer peripheral I heard about. So I was like wow! These are actually not expensive so I bought it all. These product are SO bad. First of all the mouse, it lasted less then 1 year and it started doing double and even triple clicks (I played dota alotttt that year, prbl close to 800 hours so a shit load of right clicks). Now the sensor, idk for sure if the sensor was just cheap or it was the mousepad the problem but it would often jerk. Was really not precise. But like I said, this could of been the mousepad too. I switched the mouse and mousepad at the same time so idk. Now the mousepad. It has a not good feel to it. It's really not soft. For example right now I got the Qck+ and it's a real nice cloth feeling. This e-blue on the other hand was really rough. Think about a cloth that would give you burns if you would slide your hand on it real fast. The good thing about it was the edge tho, these edge won't start to split up. Now for the keyboard. The one I had wasn't mechanical, just a normal rubber dome one but man it felt cheap. Even comparing it to another rubber dome it was super mushy. It had media keys on the side that were flat button and kinda worked if you pressed hard on them. So in the end, I'm just telling you guys that I know this brand is one of those *cheap Walmart brand * if you want a comparison. Just beware that this brand isn't really about quality that much.
Note: remember that my keyboard, mouse and mousepad was not these one dropping now. Just the same brand. The mousepad is still the exact same material as the one showed there tho.

Pascalj04It's crap. That's why it's not listed under mech keys category.

Pascalj04to be honest a mech keyboard at that price, I was expecting a trap. What is Eblue Blue Tactile switches by the way ?
maybe a great keyboard to train disassembling and things like that.

smallbitomg, it's hilarious because I was just about to ask why this isn't in the "mech" category when it clearly labels "mechanical keyboard". I'd totally have missed it if I haven't also sub on Tech...
Also can't find much on "E-Blue switches"
There's a lot of mech keyboards on Amazon around $40-60 range that people like (Magicforce, red dragon, etc). I think if you are lucky they'll last a bit, otherwise the reviews seem to say it lasts about 2 month-1yr. It's probably just a lot of QA problem., but I'm only speculating here. I think any of those cheaper mech is for the temporary solution, and you can also get Razer tournament around $90. bB that point, I'd just get Poker, Ducky or someone better.

Lilithcakeit might not be listed in mechanical cause its not a thru mech. Don't they use something like rubber dome *mech* switch? I'm just speculating here, I'm really not sure at all.

Pascalj04stated " Custom Eblue Blue Tactile switches " with not keycaps off photo does seem a little misleading, but since it didn't say rubber dome, I'd still think it's some sort of mech switches(?) dunno who can verify this.
I found this pretty amusing if it wasn't a true mech though, you can get Outemu or Kalih ones for about this price range on Amazon.... but you could also spend $100 for rubber dome ones(cough, Apple, cough). Maybe price and quality isn't always proportional.

LilithcakeI think there are just technology differences. Apple keyboards in the 80's and 90's were mostly salmon and other variants of alps switches but now they use butterfly on laptops and whatever is most energy efficient on the keyboard so they can use a solid aluminum case without busting the budget even further. I have bought the lolita 86, ibm f series (from 87), ducky yoth, varmillo 86, cherry 68, and many others that are lesser known like the minivan and such. IMO green cherry mx is the best switch in the world and i am in love with the new apple laptop butterfly keyboard.
The manufacturer and the switch matter for durability reasons, not necessarily immediate "feels". Like these rubber dome mech hybrid could just be a rubber dome with a notch in a plastic rail? Buy a better keyboard, you are going to spend more time on it than you will in your car over your lifetime probably hahaha :)

LegacyLemonCan't compare them to cherry blue switches tho. To anyone else looking at this keyboard, don't buy it. It's basicly a Walmart quality kind of brand. (not from Walmart tho)
