Best is to get direct from Razer if same price.
Easier for exchange over rare issues like mushy keys etc



This video would clear things up :)



A good set is definitely better than Mx Blues.
Legit.haha
But chances of getting a bad switch is quite high also like my case. haha

Have to weigh the pro and con.

1 of the con is the keys feel different and not consistent even on the same keyboard. But when u get a gd set, the "best" working key feels really good. Really no other switches can match. My best key is "V". I find myself pressing it just for fun frequently lol.

Yas CES. So far 1 shot 1 kill :s13:

I tried logitech but didn't quite like it :o
Maybe if I tell myself it is another variant of mx brown then I'll accept it better :s13:

You buy from where?

Looking to get Filco Majestic 2 convertible bluetooth kb.

1) Wish to use the kb for gaming. Should I use brown switch or red switch better? Brown switch seems to be the hybrid for gaming/typing and red is more for gaming.

2) is getting the kb from xtremesolutions/tech drome the best recommendation? Or can get cheaper from taobao?

branded ones better get here, prices are quite close if you ask me, if you don't mind oem/ similar switches, can try TB, 1001 type and choices for you.

Try lazada, sold by xtreme solutions. Then look around for lazada codes to get discounts.
