Pleasantly surprised by the thickness and legend quality
I was sort of worried that these were going to be pretty thin keycaps, but the quality is a lot better than I had imagined. It's basically what I'm used to from DCX and GMK and other high quality cherry profile keycaps. Really the only thing I need is a frosted black keyboard to use these with. I love the transparent plastic look, and I've wanted these for years. So finally having my hands on them is great.
If you have some switches that you want to show off, this is the way to do it. I'll be buying multiple sets of these and using my switches to theme my board. These are great. They look really good. I love the feel of them and they are a joy to type on. The quality is really nice too. These ended up looking and feeling better than I thought they would. Photos don't do them justice in my opinion. I got the artic on top of some blueberry swirl switches and *chef's kiss
also, pro tip, wash ya dirty hands when you type. Don't eat food while you use your keyboard. Oily digits make legends fade much faster. WASH YOUR HANDS
They look great on the keyboard, but I ended up stopping using them because I started to notice that the legends on some keys began to wear off after a few months of use.
Beautiful set of keycaps, and the extra keycaps to support different layouts is amazing. However, there still seems to be an issue with quality.
Within 3 months of use, the legends started fading. I assumed I received an old R1 set so I reached out to Drop support - they were awesome and quickly sent me a replacement set.
Sadly after 1 month of using this new set, the legends are fading on them as well; noticeably faster than the previous set.
I wish they were a little taller, but it's so pretty to see the purple switches in my keyboard through the clear plastic. They don't match the height of my other keys but they still look cool!
affordable price for anyone interested in running colored clear keycaps, will pair nicely with my wooting ghost, for the mean time using them on a wooting 60HE
