Really enjoy these colors. The green is a nice subtle one so it makes it easy on the eyes. SP always makes the nicest stuff. Great job on this set. Its a good one.
I have a feeling that SP changed some molds around since the last set they've made, quality went back up, and no bleedtrough/weirdness/ scratches or anything like that on these. Buying from Drop in EU sucks, but that doesn't affect the keycaps. despite having had to wait so goddamn long. I'm still very happy I didn't go for the refund that has been offered several times in the past!
Bought both PHOSPHOR BASE and AMBER BASE.
The Amber Base only comes with an alpha without modifiers.
I used a transport agent for shipping and it takes too much time for shipping, besides the transport fee is too high for a refund.
About the PHOSPHOR BASE, luckily my transport agent reported me a 2.18kg package.
After a photo check, it contains an elgato' s Microphone and some other accessories like an XLR pannel.
I returned it and now I' m still waiting for my PHOSPHOR BASE.
Now that the AMBER BASE is out of stock, dont know if I should buy another PHOSPHOR base for the modifiers, they seemed almose the same.
Seems like its time for me to end up my drop account after the Metaverse comes out, and I already stopped the club subscribe.
My YURI SA modifiers lack an F10, CARBON numpad lacks a 5. after a few months can i found those mistakes.
BifidaHi @Bifida This is Amy with Drop Support. We wanted to let you know that your comments about our shipment mistakes across a few previous orders have been heard. We apologize for this. It is certainly not acceptable and we have already reported this mis-ship to our warehouse. We should not see this occurrence moving forward. We've reached out to provide a solution that you may be satisfied with.
These feel exactly like the SA oblivion set and they look like a great candidate color-wise to mix caps between the two. I might need to grab a base set to do that but I have the ortho set for this review.
Very awesome to have a uniform ortho profile. The keys map almost perfect for the preonic but you do end up with one dark key mixed in with the outside edge lighter gray.
Most keys do have visible plastic mold break points. These vary from not very visible to very noticeable. These look similar to what I expect from this manufacturer based on other sets, so not surprising but others have noted this as well.
The COLOR! This is a bit mixed. I was not prepared for the color out of the box. It is much more yellow than I thought it would be based on the original images. The text legends look fantastic but the solid keys are taking some time to grow on me. It is a very mac and cheese orange than the amber I expected. The light gray also has an old feel to the color. It might be the pairing with the amber, but they light grey looks just a touch yellow too.
Sold this set after a week, the mods grey colour does not look great in real life, and the green just doesn’t feel quite right. The amber screen looks really good though.
The colors are spot on and the keyfeel is great, but most if not all caps have tiny chips in their bottoms. This is most likely due to molds and do not effect the use of the caps, but still something to take note of.
