Product Description
The Vortex VIBE is a riff on the popular 83-key Vortex Race 3 keyboard. After requests to include a numpad (which the Race 3 lacked) and to remove the function keys (which it had), Vortex heeded the call Read More

Hey Everyone
Even tho I did not join in on this drop thought I share another one of my boards. Its with cherry mx silver switches. I decked it out with the SA- Penumbra keyset with it makes it a fine looking board with it. Even tho this board lacks RGB it can be made beautiful with any good SA keycap set.

I wanted to join in on the SA carbon set but missed it when it came out. Would be nice to see that drop again on here or the danger zone SA keyset again .

blakstealthI wish that they would send a notification a few days before when they know they can't make the deadline.

<Graphic designer perspective here>I'd probably never let go of my stylus if I had a num pad on the left side.
I enter a lot of precise measurements and would find it useful. I'd imagine that a lot of 3d modellers and video editors would find this useful too.

Where I got mine from and actually had to send it back due to bent plate that caused the esc key to be lifted off board. They took care of it though. Would still go with them though.

After I got my refund from Massdrop I bought mine from there as well. Showed up in perfect condition with the right switches. it’s worth the extra 10 dollars or so.

Received my vibe at last but not happy at all. Removing keycaps to put o-rings, it seems that all mod sliders are stuck as it were glued... And I don't find how to put those back without breaking something. First time something like this happens and it is at least my 20th mechanical keyboard.
Five switch off. Keyboard unusable. Extra quality control.

MoebiuSI ordered my with the white cherries too. I could not get the red enter key to sit correctly on the key switch stem. Felt to be to tight of a connection. Very hesitant to mess with adding o-rings after seeing this post. I wonder if anyone else has see this issue?

wickid-goodYes, the keycaps that come with this keyboard fit very tightly on the MX Clear stems. The problem is not inserting them, the problem is getting them off. You're probably safe to push a little bit harder.
I managed to replace the accent keys with the ones supplied and later on I replaced them all with SA Dasher without an issue. Also I have two more keyboards with MX Clears and never had an issue with a stem coming out of the housing. You just have to wiggle a little bit and pull straight up.
Regarding the o-rings: since the default keycaps are in SA profile, you need to insert quite a lot of them on each keycap for them to actually have an effect. If you place just one ring like in the pictures above, I won't do a thing as it has nothing to block it above.

I contacted Vortex directly and received this reply:
Hi there,
It's our fault. We delayed the shipping schedule cause we had a Lunar New Year from 2/15~2/25. So, our factory stopped working during this period.
We are in a hurry to finish it, please wait.
We feel sorry for the trouble that has caused you much inconvenience.

BunsVortex is funny... I know that this is not the fault of the OP, but sincerely, from Vortex point of view Chineese New Year festivities were soooooo unpredictable !!!
By the way, I am looking for the vibe since last october from regular shop... So happy it poped up on MD... Hope this keyboard really exists !

BunsI had something similar pop up for a keycap set I ordered on aliexpress. Vortex really should have known though and communicated this to MD. It's not like a new mooon is unpredictable and we would have been fine tacking 2 weeks on to expected delivery right off the bat had we known.
