ok, just about a week ago i received the long awaited pok3r from massdrop, thank you all (the team and the community) for that! this is my second mechanical keyboard from massdrop (and since a very long time) so it's only natural that i compare those two. more so that the firs one is kbp v60 mini matias, so it's an interesting comparison.
what i love: the same 60% form factor; size and weight; the overall solid feel; cherry mx clears clickyness; programming!
what's disappointing: the legends font; white plate.
the two most disappointing things with my pok3er are not inherent to design, just production glitches: the aluminum body is just a little bit wry but the rubber pads are not soft enough to compensate for that and the keyboard swings just a bit on two pads (i hate this, tell me you wouldn't); also there's some smallish part loose inside the body and i absolutely need to open it up to get this thing out.
other than those two very annoying things pok3r is an ideal keyboard for me.
cherry ms clears sound and feel very different from the matias quiets that i've got really used to and almost fell in love with. i'm not sure which ones i love better but both are very pleasant.
