Yeah, it seems you are the only one with the Hi75. But $44 is very decent, will take a look at what it has to offer.

Wah issit haha..it's pretty popular in youtube, multiple youtubers promoting it as a cheap budget aluminium board. U can hear the prebuilt sound tests.

Yeah currently ALU case is getting cheaper and cheaper. Rainy75 Hi75/Hi8 all are really popular and cheap, to a point there is no point getting PC/plastic case unless you want shine through or etc.

Currently, i also looking around for a 98/100%. Thinking of Zoom98/Hi98. Need a case with knob and numpad w 2u0 key.

Seriously impressed by the Aula F75 (paid a bit more for Icy Vein (55 sgd shipping included) . Have been using dell kb700 so yep my expectations are pretty low. Backlit is good to have and seems to be very well built. (The weight)

Saw an aluminum option from Monka. A75 (299 onwards) with the same mod/foam like f75

if you bought from taobao and the description begins with 99新 it's Like New, not brand new

i just saw the listing with the 99新. I bought from another shop which offers ice vein that is 30 to 40 yuan higher but no 99新 - paid 305 yuan with shipping

yea these 75 boards come with all the known mods that custom builders like to use in their boards, i see no reason to get more expensive aluminium boards in which one still need to buy foams/layers to mod to make it sound decent. Mainly just paying more for the aesthetic and material of the alumium probably, but some are like hundreds more... which u can get almost the same experience just by using better quality switches / keycaps.

99新 or brand new doesnt matter lah, imo. as long it works.

alot of reseller also in taobao I realised, especially those recently very popular model. SKN青龍4.0 (i heard is a sub brand of keychron) retail ard 299yuan, but taobao reseller now sell 799yuan

Hi75/8/98 have alot of reseller as well. Truth is, popular boards snatched up too fast now in China. like INFI100 just released afew days and was all snatched up

Does anybody know what is the bottoming force for Keychron Browns ? They only list the actuating/operating force. Unless it's the same force for both actuating and bottoming ?

WOOTing away in my new Tofu Acrylic build!
Got some new Geon Raw HE switches and they feel and sound absolutely fantastic. The best hall effect switch I've used so far. Virtually no steam wobble. Forget Gateron Jade's. These are so well built switches even in stock form though I lubed all the switches again. Tofu60 in acrylic with brass plate sounds so damn good and crisp.
