    This is the best Keyboard I've ever owned!
    5 out of 5 stars
    This is the best Keyboard I've ever owned!
    I'm writing on this keyboard now!It's so buttery smooth and quiet! My dad approves of it! (He sits like 50 feet from me)I used to run on a Cherry MX Brown keyboard for the longest time. I loved it, but I also got sort of fed up with it in the long run.My dad was getting very annoyed by the keyboard and thus I was hunting around for finding a new keyboard I would enjoy owning for a long time. Hence how I found this keyboard.At first I discovered this keyboard and brand from LLT and then HypoTech's review on it. This is how I was sold on the product in the first place.Once I got mine, I fell in love with this thing instantly, so did my dad! LOL.So how does it feel to use? It's premium without the premium price tag. That's basically the honest answer. It's that good! Yes, it's fully plastic but what keyboard out there isn't? But it's also got some heft to it, just like the old 90's keyboards of the day were. I can tell they made sure this thing dampens any and all sound coming out of it so it doesn't sound like a hollowed out shell of whatever it's supposed to be.Once you get it, you will see what I mean. These switches are just incredible for what they are. They're a linear switch and it makes typing just a dream to type on. Just typing all of this text is so satisfying that I want to keep on typing on it. So I will......ANYWAYS..... These are a type of Linear switch that knocks a lot of noise out of the switch so it's smooth and quiet in operation. It's so smooth in fact, you barely have to touch your fingers on it to actuate the response and feel so quick to type on and feel like a typing god. It's so incredible to use that it just blows my mind how amazing this thing feels. Especially now after typing this far into this review on it. I will admit, I'm not perfect. I had to backspace a million times because I do fat finger from time to time. So it's not going to prevent that. (I did the same thing even on the MX browns...)How does it feel to press on the switches? It's like touching the best button in existence, nice and clean to press and it's very soft. Like a pillow with a soft touch.When you press down hard, it just feels solid and smooth. It's got instant response to your inputs. No matter how light or heavy you press the buttons, they respond instantly. The springs in the switch are "Light" but over time that lightness starts to feel heavier as you go. So you'll start to feel where the switches activate even with the lightest of touches, it just makes typing quick and clean.... except if you're a typo master or a fat finger writer like I am where you hit the backspace a lot to clean up your horrid typing...Speaking of which, if you're a gamer. BUY THIS! It may not be a high end switch keyboard but trust me, that doesn't matter. This keyboard is perfect for the average person to Twitch Stream user who is recording content on their channels (Even a YouTuber). This thing just makes gaming so comfy. I do not want you to skip this product just because it MAY not have the best and fastest switch actuation out there. Trust me, it doesn't make any difference, your mouse makes more of the difference over a keyboard. Believe me, there is nothing out there that makes your gaming THAT much better. (Except if you're using a junky low grade low cost keyboard.... yeah, nothing is topping that trashy product. It's cheap for a reason, buy something with better quality. Anything that runs smoother is already a better product vs a garbage made one)Now, how this thing works in the function part is rather interesting to say the least. It's not bad to use, but some functions I don't know for sure how it works yet. Even Epomaker's Manual is vague in some areas. So do your homework on this board. Recommend you watch HypoTech's video on this keyboard before you think of buying it, it's a quirky thing. That's for sure, but the experience makes up for it.This product DOES have a nice little TV display. It's cute, but a novelty item. So don't buy it ONLY for the screen. Trust me, you'll be disappointed in it. Epomaker has made this thing just that, a novelty to play around with and nothing else. I mean it DOES work, but it's a hassle to make it useable at the moment. Hopefully they figure out what they're trying to achieve with it, it's like they made it an afterthought and thought it looked cool to put on it. I do wish they figured it out with the design when they did it and not afterwards....(It's firmware and driver related. Get it on their website for this keyboard if you're interested to playing around with it. Word of advice, it's not that impressive to use. Software is somewhat annoying to figure out, but it's about the only way you'll get any functional use out of it. So get it and then program it however you like on it)Final thoughts, do I recommend this? 100%, BUT it may not be your cup of tea. This doesn't come native with Micro buttons, but you can map them on this just like any other keyboard. It's not useless, the function command does make this keyboard rather cool to mess around with once you program it to do certain commands on it.The play button and volume control is a nice feature, but it's not 100% necessary on this board to be put on there. But hey, it's for those who actually want or need it for some reason... it works. That's about all I say about it. It's not a standout feature or anything, it does what it needs to do.Anyways, enough of this small but long essay about it. Go buy it already, you'll love it. Trust me!

Even Epomaker's Manual is vague in some areas. So do your homework on this board. Recommend you watch HypoTech's video on this keyboard before you think of buying it, it's a quirky thing. That's for sure, but the experience makes up for it.

    This product DOES have a nice little TV display. It's cute, but a novelty item. So don't buy it ONLY for the screen. Trust me, you'll be disappointed in it. Epomaker has made this thing just that, a novelty to play around with and nothing else. I mean it DOES work, but it's a hassle to make it useable at the moment. Hopefully they figure out what they're trying to achieve with it, it's like they made it an afterthought and thought it looked cool to put on it. I do wish they figured it out with the design when they did it and not afterwards....(It's firmware and driver related. Get it on their website for this keyboard if you're interested to playing around with it. Word of advice, it's not that impressive to use. Software is somewhat annoying to figure out, but it's about the only way you'll get any functional use out of it. So get it and then program it however you like on it)

    Final thoughts, do I recommend this? 100%, BUT it may not be your cup of tea. This doesn't come native with Micro buttons, but you can map them on this just like any other keyboard. It's not useless, the function command does make this keyboard rather cool to mess around with once you program it to do certain commands on it.

    The play button and volume control is a nice feature, but it's not 100% necessary on this board to be put on there. But hey, it's for those who actually want or need it for some reason... it works. That's about all I say about it. It's not a standout feature or anything, it does what it needs to do.

    Anyways, enough of this small but long essay about it. Go buy it already, you'll love it. Trust me!

    5.0 out of 5 stars This is the best Keyboard I've ever owned!
    Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2024
    I'm writing on this keyboard now!
    It's so buttery smooth and quiet! My dad approves of it! (He sits like 50 feet from me)

    I used to run on a Cherry MX Brown keyboard for the longest time. I loved it, but I also got sort of fed up with it in the long run.
    My dad was getting very annoyed by the keyboard and thus I was hunting around for finding a new keyboard I would enjoy owning for a long time. Hence how I found this keyboard.
    At first I discovered this keyboard and brand from LLT and then HypoTech's review on it. This is how I was sold on the product in the first place.

    Once I got mine, I fell in love with this thing instantly, so did my dad! LOL.

    So how does it feel to use? It's premium without the premium price tag. That's basically the honest answer. It's that good! Yes, it's fully plastic but what keyboard out there isn't? But it's also got some heft to it, just like the old 90's keyboards of the day were. I can tell they made sure this thing dampens any and all sound coming out of it so it doesn't sound like a hollowed out shell of whatever it's supposed to be.
    Once you get it, you will see what I mean. These switches are just incredible for what they are. They're a linear switch and it makes typing just a dream to type on. Just typing all of this text is so satisfying that I want to keep on typing on it. So I will......
    ANYWAYS..... These are a type of Linear switch that knocks a lot of noise out of the switch so it's smooth and quiet in operation. It's so smooth in fact, you barely have to touch your fingers on it to actuate the response and feel so quick to type on and feel like a typing god. It's so incredible to use that it just blows my mind how amazing this thing feels. Especially now after typing this far into this review on it. I will admit, I'm not perfect. I had to backspace a million times because I do fat finger from time to time. So it's not going to prevent that. (I did the same thing even on the MX browns...)

    How does it feel to press on the switches? It's like touching the best button in existence, nice and clean to press and it's very soft. Like a pillow with a soft touch.

    When you press down hard, it just feels solid and smooth. It's got instant response to your inputs. No matter how light or heavy you press the buttons, they respond instantly. The springs in the switch are "Light" but over time that lightness starts to feel heavier as you go. So you'll start to feel where the switches activate even with the lightest of touches, it just makes typing quick and clean.... except if you're a typo master or a fat finger writer like I am where you hit the backspace a lot to clean up your horrid typing...

    Speaking of which, if you're a gamer. BUY THIS! It may not be a high end switch keyboard but trust me, that doesn't matter. This keyboard is perfect for the average person to Twitch Stream user who is recording content on their channels (Even a YouTuber). This thing just makes gaming so comfy. I do not want you to skip this product just because it MAY not have the best and fastest switch actuation out there. Trust me, it doesn't make any difference, your mouse makes more of the difference over a keyboard. Believe me, there is nothing out there that makes your gaming THAT much better. (Except if you're using a junky low grade low cost keyboard.... yeah, nothing is topping that trashy product. It's cheap for a reason, buy something with better quality. Anything that runs smoother is already a better product vs a garbage made one)

    I got the grey/vintage version with with the Wisteria linear switch. I absolutely love it. I got it for "black friday" at $84. Out of the box, it works like it's supposed to and sounds great. The keys sound thocky/creamy with NO mods. I might mod it one day, but I really don't need to. The switches are factory lubed pretty well and the key caps are a high quality plastic that feels good when typing or gaming. The switches & caps are easy to remove with the free switch puller they included.

    The RGB is solid and doesn't make it harder to read the keys. The little screen is cool. I put a little rocket ship flying through the stars for my animation. The knob also has a nice tactile feel. It's nice having a quick access to adjust volume & pause/play. It is a plastic housing, but it's really quality thick plastic that isn't prone to smudges. The CABLE is sick. I didn't even know about the cable that came with it & that's worth probably $20 on its own. It feels really high quality and works as expected.

    The one annoying thing i would mention is that the software can be difficult to navigate when you're trying to customize the RGB & tiny screen settings.

    It's not the BEST mechanical keyboard you can find, but it is the best in this price range (for a full size). I was considering a keyboard called the Zoom98 for over $200 and am glad I went with this for less than half the money.

    Update 2: The replacement keyboard arrived and the display works. However, the "-" key in the keypad was not plugged in when I opened the box and the PgUp and PgDn keys fell out before I could plug in the keyboard. As with the first keyboard, the keys were easy to plug in, but check the contacts to make sure they are not bent first.

    Regarding the display, it is greatly hindered by what is the worst keyboard software I have ever seen. While it shows the time and date, the CPU utilization does not seem to reflect the actual values. The local temperature also does not update regularly, if at all. The software consumes a percent or two of CPU usage by itself.

    I tried setting up a macro, but I could not get the macro to play back. Again, the keyboard software is absolutely terrible. If Epomaker is not going to fix the software, the company should make it open source or release firmware so that VIA can be used instead. Truly, the Epomaker software is stunningly bad.

    The green LEDs for numlock, capslock, and scrlk, are dim and hard to see, unlike the battery light.

    I forgot to mention earlier that the keyboard comes with a high quality, nice looking USB cable. The box also includes a transparent, plastic keyboard cover, although it doesn't fit with the monitor attached.

    Because the keyboard software is so terrible, limiting the display's usefulness and making it difficult to configure macros, and because three keys fell out on the replacement keyboard and four were loose with the original, I have to keep my rating at four stars despite how much I otherwise like the keyboard.

    Update: The display did not work at all, so I requested a replacement keyboard from Amazon. Given that so many keys fell out upon unboxing, it's likely that the package had been abused, although the keyboard box looks okay. Otherwise, I really like the keyboard and will give it five stars if the replacement is fully functional. The tactile switches are the best I have ever used, smooth with a well-defined tactile bump that is much better than regular brown switches. The keys deliver a satisfying thock, although they could be too loud for confined working conditions. I think this is my favorite keyboard layout now; I still have the numpad and all the key functions, but the keyboard is only the width of a TKL keyboard. A knob is a must-have. If there is anything else negative, it is that the keys bottom out a little too unforgivingly, but I have grown used to it.

    Original review:

    I bought the green keyboard with tactile switches. I have not tried the display yet (it is supposedly a hassle to get it working right), but four keys fell out of the keyboard between unboxing and setting up the keyboard on my desk. The PgDn key was already out of its socket when I opened the box. One of the switches had a bent pin that I had to straighten before plugging the key back in place. The keys seem to be working, but it would be unsurprising if others will need to be reseated. The spacebar is much higher on one end than the other. I'm thinking about asking Amazon for a replacement because keys should not just fall out of the keyboard when you pick it up.

    Otherwise, the keyboard is very attractive and "thocky". The tactile keys are smooth with a distinct tactile feel. Although it is plastic, the keyboard feels well-built (but the keys randomly falling out destroys the impression of quality). The keyboard is fairly loud. I like the highly legible, textured dye-sublimated PBT keycaps. Be aware these are not shine-through, so the RGB lighting doesn't help a lot in the dark.

    If so many keys hadn't already fallen out of the keyboard, I'd give it 5 stars even without testing the display yet.

    El teclado es estupendo y funciona perfecto tanto en Linux como MacOs, que es donde lo utilizo. Tiene una conexión bastante estable, la pila dura lo suficiente y cabe decir que es muy bonito (adquirí el color verde). Las teclas son muy silenciosas y fácilmente uno lo puede llevar a la oficina sin molestar a los demás. El cable para conectarlo es suficientemente largo y se ve duradero.

    I recently got my hands on the EPOMAKER RT100, and I must say, it has been an absolute delight! This keyboard deserves nothing less than a five-star rating for its outstanding performance and features.

    One pro tip for new users: If you're facing any issues with the date display on the Mini TV, make sure your PC's date format matches that of the Mini TV (yyyy/mm/dd). It's a simple fix that enhances the experience significantly.

    The color options on this keyboard are fantastic. They add a vibrant and personalized touch to my setup, making it not just a functional device but also a stylish one. Additionally, the Mini TV's resolution is impressive. It's crisp and clear, making the display features a joy to use.

    The included instructions are clear and concise, especially regarding the connection options. Setting up either Bluetooth or a wired connection is straightforward, thanks to the well-written guidance. It's great to have both options, offering flexibility for different user preferences and setups.

    A minor note for future improvements: The BT (Bluetooth) light indicator is a bit small, which might be an issue if you have color schemes running on your keyboard. It's a small detail, but keeping an eye on this can enhance usability.

    The silent keys were a welcomed and purposeful switch from the Blackwidow clackity keys

    In conclusion, the EPOMAKER RT100 has been a fantastic addition to my tech collection. Its blend of style, functionality, and ease of use makes it a standout product. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and aesthetically pleasing keyboard. It's a purchase you won't regret!

    Anfangs gab es Probleme mit dem Datenkabel, aber der Epochmaker Support hat sich sehr schnell darum bemüht das Problem zu beseitigen und mir ein (wirklich hochwertiges) Ersatzkabel zu kommen lassen, so dass Ich die Tastatur auch mit Kabel betreiben kann. Sie ist sehr leicht zu modifizieren, Tasten haben ein gutes Tippgefühl und klingt auch gut wenn man am hantieren ist. Die Kappen sind leicht mit dem mitgelieferten Werkzeug zu lösen, trotzdem sollte man eine gewisse vorsicht mitbringen, denn es gibt keine Ersatz Switches. Der Bildschirm rundet das ganze Teil noch ein bisschen von der Optik her ab.

    Wer beim tippen tatsächlich noch auf seine Tastatur sieht und wem das wichtig ist, dem sei noch gesagt das nach 8 Monaten die ersten Hintergrund Beleuchtungs LED's vereinzelt nicht mehr leuchten.
    Es ist trotzdem die beste Tastatur die Ich je gekauft habe.

    Me parece una pasada de teclado. Hotswap, con muchas funciones, teclado numérico, teclas especiales, la TV que da un toque diferente, y unas teclas PBT double-shot de muy buena calidad. He cambiado los Sea Salt por unos Akko Cream Yellow V3 Pro lubricados, y es una gozada de teclado. El software es bastante mejorable...
