Alejo1707Nothing but downhill for this company in the last few years and it seems to me there is little point to shop here anymore. What made it great before, in my opinion, was the variety of products in addition to lower prices via group buys. It’s wild how much of it they whittled away until it became just another high priced keeb boutique.
Man, I really miss the OG Massdrop :( I still have several things from back then that are holding strong today, 5-8 years later. Wish there was another place like it.

Alejo1707I bought one! Just kind of bought it on a lark/as an odd collection piece I guess - I’m not a tech reviewer, but I AM an idiot, so take this all with a grain of salt. I dunno, I kinda like it tbh - decent conversation piece at least, and good fun to goof around with. For the life of me I can never seem to actually get used to using the damn thing, but the only REAL complaint I have with it is that it’s impossible to find the stupid (sold separately) charging mat.

AgoogolofgeeseOh my friend, Drop cannot be further away than what Massdrop was. They only inherited the name, but none of the actual matter. There are eventually some things that are somewhat attractive, but those are becoming more and more rare as time goes on.

BigdsenpaiThat is one of the stupidest things they could have done. I have no idea how on earth they did not bundle the mat with the keyboard given the charging port is at the bottom of each half. That's Apple's Magic Mouse level stupid.
I cannot say the thing does not look amazing, but the Glove 80 and Dactyl Manuform are the same way, out worldly. I have thought of purchasing it, but only if I ever get into PCB design so I can swap their crap for a decent one that does not need their SW and does not break just by looking at it out of the case. Also, more than once I have found very sketchy processes running on Chinese software :S.

- Drop has not sold a single one of these luxurious paperweights.
- Moreover, if you check their photos page, only 2 are seemingly not from the company itself, Drop, or a tech reviewer.
- From those 2, 1 belongs to a special edition which was not even carried by Drop, so for all I know, somebody got scammed early on with their NTFs "gift" (yeah, it's bad), uploaded a photo and it ended up on Drop.
- That leaves a single semi-valid actual customer photo, or it's just another company photo, but uglier so people get fooled somebody actually bought one.
On a side note, how tf does Drop curates the "Bought together" button? Why would somebody get a Hatsu and a Cyberboard? Honestly after being acquired by Corsair I was hoping they would up their standards, but apparently it's just wishful thinking.
