Vortex R5 PBT Dye-Subbed Keycap Set

Apr 6, 2017

I'm calling this drop dead just like Vortex caps.
MD I recommend a sit down with Vortex cap department.
Ever since I received my first set (og thick heavy caps) and asked for a refund, every Vortex set released since that time has changed drastically.
But worst of all. The changes to thickness by way of physical design or material composition. You can see it on their drops from the last year or so.
Basically Vortex caps look like shit now.
Maybe the looks are deceiving, highly doubt it, but it's enough of a look for me to avoid.

BrainFlushtheir blue on white keyset I bought via massdrop was very good, I still hope they rerun that set sometime. This really isn't a set worth buying though.

MaxusyNewest LED version from them. Appears cheap to me. https://www.massdrop.com/buy/vortex-backlit-pbt-doubleshot-keycap-set?utm_source=linkshare&referer=DWSEU7
I'm looking for the OG set link on MD. https://www.massdrop.com/buy/vortex-backlit-doubleshot-pbt-keycaps?utm_source=linkshare&referer=DWSEU7 These are what I consider OG Vortex. You might find posts of their undersides there or you can check my profile. I've uploaded pictures at somepoint.

BrainFlushyep, the last link you linked, that's what I used before. Great quality. Never really tried their latest products though.

MaxusySame.
But my set was defective in numerous ways, the quality wasn't bad to a degree, but the LED wasn't the best with their old molding.
I get what they might be trying to do, but it looks so cheap compared to how it was.
