I bought these keycaps elsewhere and I don't recommend them. While they do fit my Massdrop ALT (finally) and they do allow backlighting, they have some major flaws in my opinion.
1) They're grainy. The texture of them isn't as smooth as other doubleshot PBT keycaps I've gotten.
2) The lettering is a bit wonky. Specifically on the Win key and the M key. The font is too big so the lettering looks silly.
3) The lettering on the keycaps is NOT transparent, it's colored inverted to the key. So the pink ones have a teal coloring, and the teal ones have a pink coloring. This means that a lot of RGB colors you shine through them will just appear as pink/teal no matter the color underneath.
Furthermore, unless they've added some keys to this pack, there are no appropriate PgUp/PgDn/Home/End keys to fit the Massdrop ALT. You can use them, but the row sizing won't match properly so it'll look super wonky.
Ultimately I ended up removing these keycaps and the hunt continues.
did you use the stock keys for this still? im halfway tempted to just return my alt and get a control because of how effed some of the key spacings are on this non conventional layout
dtdalrympleI'm still using the stock keys on my Home/PgUp/PgDn keys, yeah.
I think it's only a matter of time till Massdrop releases some keycap sets custom tailored for the ALT (with backlighting support) considering myself and loads of others have been begging them for it since the ALT released.
And you could use the standard H/End/PgUp/PgDn but as I mentioned the sizing is really wonky. Like, it'd work, but it's very far from ideal and would make running your fingers along those keys really uncomfortable because the rows aren't remotely correct.
You know what could be great? That a keycap design could also be available for international layouts as spanish/latinamerican. There is virtually nothing avaiable for international layouts except american and that is a huge bummer for me, I have to buy small sets of keycaps for certain keys or "gamer keys" in order to have a chance to personalize my keyboard. It's really sad that in order to have my own keycap config I have to depend on layouts that doesn't fit my geographical location way of typing. And I think this is a common thing for other layouts out there.
As an example, my left Shift key is way smaller than the right Shift, Enter key is bigger, the Ñ key, the punctuation signs are in different locations, so i don't have the chance of full layout personalization.
I know, english layout is more commercial but there is custommers outside that want to be included as well and don't want to being forced to use a different layouts in order to have full personalization.
By the way, I do own a set of rubber leycaps from Tai-Hao and they are amazing, feels really good at use, I have a HyperX Alloy rgb with Cherry MX red switches and the keys fits just right.
*Hope my english wasn't so broken, I partially wrote this with translation machine*
The only place I have found a more variety of layouts, including latinamerican, is on WASDkeyboard.com, they are not so expensive (140+ usd for 61 to 160+ usd for full layouts). Sadly, you can't have backlight or RGB on those keyboards, but they look very HQ.
The whole point of these keycaps are for gaming considering they are only for mechanical keyboards. It would only be in every gamers best interest that they either use a 60%, 75%, or TKL keyboard. Also, I understand that people still use 100% keyboards, but for a lot of people it's either too big or takes up too much space on their desk. So next time instead of being disrespectful and assuming things, try to understand where I'm coming from and trying to say.
YoutubeEquazyYou are so disconnected to think that mechanical keyboards are exclusively for gaming. Almost anyone who uses their keyboard a lot would prefer mechanical. People like programmers, writers, or any other person who might want a mechanical keyboard. Most people who would be in these fields would want a full size keyboard so they could have macros or additional keys.
Does anyone know if this has that antibiosis coating or whatever it is? This is the first set of keycaps I've ever bought and have no idea what that coating feels like and am just curious.
JPfeiff23Finally recieved these and I love them. They look amazing in the light or dark. Plus they feel really nice and durable. Might have to buy a second set this drop.
Does anyone know where else I can get these? I'm willing to pay the higher price to get them quicker and also the drop has closed. I know mechanicalkeyboards.com has the regular miami set, but I'm looking for the backlit version like the one here.
secretixiMechanicalkeyboards.com have them for preorder they are expected to arrive around the same time as these but the only thing is it was 5 dollars cheaper on this site. I have a set coming from both sites.
