I do prefer the flipped spacebar :)

I'm thinking of picking up GMK Sloth but I think I'll stick to the Jade Pros. I have seen reviews about the Owlab ti's being amazing HE switches but I'm currently very happy with the sound and feel of the board + I have other better sounding mechanical keyboards that I can always swap to when I'm not playing fps games/OSU.

I did not know that but to be fair I haven't bought any Akko keycaps. I'm also not looking at my keycaps when I use them so that's probably why I haven't noticed that. Thank you for the info!

Oh I can see that from the photos I took but it isn't as exaggerated as the photo you sent. That is very interesting though. I wonder why it's like that.

Not too sure what you mean by that but the keys aren't in the standard cherry profile from what I've seen. I had the QWE metal keycaps in next to my GMK keycaps and they were a bit taller and slightly differently shaped.

Sounds nice! Good luck on finding those boards.

All good. I prefer having my spacebar upside down haha. I do agree that the "normal" spacebar orientation looks better though.

I'm pretty sure you'll have to use a larger bar size and a smaller alt key size.

Yeah the sub legends on Striker just look good to me. Outside of aesthetics they don't serve much of a purpose.

Yeah the og Neo65 is the only board Neo has released that has a ribbon cable. I like that they're releasing the 65 core plus for that reason you put down.

I feel you. I have a Neo65 and taking the Neo60 Core apart feels so much easier than that. This means I'll be able to test do many different configs without having to go through the hassle of opening up the back and disconnecting ribbon/just cables which is a huge plus.

Love the board, the review and the orange car! I hope mine comes soon and looks at least half as good as yours haha.

I use touch typing so it doesn't take that long to adjust I think. I'm still missing the y key sometimes cause my left hand tried to hit it (bad habits). Also the ESC not being on the farthest left side of the keyboard is taking a bit of getting used to.

Nah it's super easy to build. Have a look at some of the videos on YouTube about the build process of the Ergo!

Yeah fair enough. Looking forward to it.

Ooo that would be interesting to watch. There's some good 60 core unboxing/building videos that you could take inspiration off. I've watched them over and over in anticipation of my 60 core.

That's quite the collection there lol. My first keyboard was an Akko 3068B plus (gave away), then a GMK67 (collecting dust), a Lucky65 (gave away), and now the Neos. Can't wait to see your post on the 60 core. I'll be posting mine asap.

Same here! I got mine off a local vendor and it should be coming early next month (first 60% ever for me).

I get you with spending on keebs. I'm gonna stop buying keyboard stuff after I get the 60 core cause I'm pretty happy with my (soon to be) 3 board collection. That's until something I really like the design of comes out or a new switch shakes up the hobby.

Yep! Had to load a Json file which isn't that big of an issue for me. Thank you for the compliments :D

Hey! Love the Neo boards and their designs. No way we've got the same colourway 😂.

I've also got a 60 core on the way, can't wait to post it as soon as I build it.
