Product Description
Capturer’s KT87 mechanical keyboard brings a lot to the table—and your desktop. Complete with full RGB LEDs and hot-swappable switch sockets, it makes customization easy Read More
This is a very solid feeling board and the switches are great. The stock keycaps feel nice - I did swap them, but I'm keeping the stock ones to go on another board. Everything works great on my PC.
That said, the same's not true when I use this on a Mac. Some of the functions don't work. The instructions explicitly say this is Mac compatible, so I'm guessing there's just a setting to change. The instruction manual that comes in the box is very short and does not say anything about this. There's a link to software, but the website link is broken. So, I'm just plugging this into my PC. I'll give it 4 stars as no complaints, but an out of date manual (or website) and lack of instruction regarding Mac that they say they support are (minor) negatives for me.
Just received my order that was originally only supposed to ship at the end of July but it arrived nice and early. So far for the price point, I am overall impressed with the build quality, look, and sound of the board. Very excited to see how it will sound after some lubing and stabilizer mods. Not the biggest fan of the color scheme for this release but that can always be changed.
EDIT: After lubing the fl.cmmk switches I can say that I quite enjoy the tactile feel and sound that they make without being too heavy of a switch. I also added a piece of foam to the bottom of the case and painted the top frame in white since I wasn't a fan of the original scheme. It now sounds and looks great and am very happy with how the build turned out for the price of this board. The RGB is also pretty nice too
First off, I want to say that the stabilizers that came with this keyboard were pretty good. I was planning on replacing them when I originally ordered the keyboard, but to my surprise, I wasn't bothered by how these stabilizers performed.
The keyboard itself is pretty easy to dismantle. With an old credit card or guitar pick, just run it along the visible edge of the top faceplate to pop the faceplate itself off and reveal all the screws. Be careful not to break anything because the faceplate is somewhat flimsy.
I ordered mine with the FL.CMMK switches and am pleasantly surprised by them. They are pretty smooth and I didn't notice much/any performance difference by adding films or more lube. They have a nice sound and have a nice tactile response. They are probably one of the louder switches I've dealt with though.
That being said, there is a sense of hollow-ness to the keyboard, despite how heavy and quality the overall board feels. It's more or less audible depending on which key you hit and is obviously amplified if you use the feet to raise to keyboard off the desk.
ImpromptuI have a FL board the F12 65% and they make solid boards i would assume the same for the this one and the FL.CMMK switches. They always add silicone dampening to the board and the stabs have been great out of the box with little to no rattle. You will be happy with this bad boi
jlg.jrYea I do agree with that. Stabs and dampenings are awsome, that' why I'm really satiafied. I'll try the FL.CMMK later and Thx for the recommendation :D
