00:00:14.200 --> 00:00:20.240
welcome to my unboxing of the KB 460 from Funk this is a brand you haven't

00:00:18.439 --> 00:00:23.480
seen featured much on the channel and the reason for that is that they just

00:00:21.840 --> 00:00:28.039
don't really have that many products up till now so the ms3 is their gaming

00:00:26.119 --> 00:00:33.000
mouse that I really feel is quite optimal for people with larger hands and

00:00:30.359 --> 00:00:37.960
both Diesel and b-roll actually use them day-to-day at their editing stations and

00:00:35.440 --> 00:00:43.200
this is the follow-up the KB 460 so first up inside we find a product manual

00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:45.000
next inside we find a couple of little

00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:49.600
presumably feet or something we'll find out what those are for later and we've

00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:55.559
also got some nice closed cell foam packing material on either side of what

00:00:52.199 --> 00:00:55.559
is a fairly sturdy

00:00:55.640 --> 00:01:01.359
feeling Cherry MX red back lit

00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:05.439
mechanical keyboard once we get the keyboard extracted from

00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:09.840
the box we find a design that is actually kind of both subdued and

00:01:07.960 --> 00:01:15.000
striking looking so the back plane itself has a matte soft touch feel that

00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:19.720
looks very professional and very clean and then the keys themselves are

00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:22.560
individually LED backlit with red LEDs

00:01:19.720 --> 00:01:26.840
and to augment the LED shine there's actually a red layer underneath all of

00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:31.000
the keys that is easily visible when the keyboard is not powered on see there you

00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:36.680
see that so that the the LEDs Shine off of that as well making the lighting even

00:01:33.600 --> 00:01:39.079
more striking the cable has the standard

00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:42.479
Funk black and orange finish to it it's actually quite a thin cable which it

00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:46.560
makes sense because it terminates in a single connector on the other end so it

00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:51.360
should be borne in mind that these two USB 2.0 ports are non-powered ports so

00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:55.840
you won't be able to plug in like the most you know power hungry like you know

00:01:53.600 --> 00:01:58.880
you know a light in a fan that's for your desk or anything like that it's

00:01:57.399 --> 00:02:03.960
meant to plug in your mouse and maybe a USB drive or something along those lines

00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:07.799
the layout has nothing about it that I would complain about which is a definite

00:02:05.920 --> 00:02:11.400
plus cuz there's usually something for me to gripe about when it comes to

00:02:09.119 --> 00:02:17.599
keyboard layouts long shift Keys long backspace long enter media Keys built in

00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:21.080
as well as built-in profile key so you can actually reprogram any of the keys

00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:27.239
on the keyboard and then switch between the profiles using F7 to f11 along with

00:02:25.239 --> 00:02:31.360
the function key next to the profile Keys there's also the funk mode key

00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:36.200
which does a couple of things so number one is that it illuminates the funk mode

00:02:34.239 --> 00:02:40.519
button no no it does more than that don't worry it also disables the Windows

00:02:38.160 --> 00:02:43.959
key and allows all of these function keys to be accessed without holding

00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:47.920
function so you can switch between profiles on the fly it has built-in

00:02:45.959 --> 00:02:53.879
memory so there's absolutely no driver installation required and the keyboard

00:02:50.239 --> 00:02:56.360
also supports full n key rollover on its

00:02:53.879 --> 00:03:00.879
Cherry MX red switches now Cherry MX red switches are one of those hotly debated

00:02:58.720 --> 00:03:03.920
items gamers will run around saying they're the best things since sliced

00:03:02.200 --> 00:03:08.720
bread because they're extremely light making them great for fast repeated

00:03:06.519 --> 00:03:12.159
pressing whereas typists will run around saying well no I can't type on anything

00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:16.120
but blues and anything but Blues is terrible you know what there's probably

00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:19.440
a middle ground somewhere here but there it is it comes with Cherry MX red

00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:23.360
switches and given that it is a product that is marketed towards Gamers that

00:03:21.200 --> 00:03:27.560
makes a fair bit of sense the last thing of note here is those little clips that

00:03:25.239 --> 00:03:31.760
I had in the Box before so those go down here and then you actually clip the

00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:36.120
wrist rest onto them that gives you a fair bit of flexibility in terms of the

00:03:33.519 --> 00:03:40.159
range of motion of your wrist rest and a system that looks like it'll come off as

00:03:38.239 --> 00:03:43.480
opposed to Breaking this is something I'm happy to see included I'm seeing

00:03:41.640 --> 00:03:47.280
more and more manufacturers just flat out cheap out and not include wrist

00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:51.799
rests and Funk has gone and included a nice wide one that spans the entire

00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:56.799
width of the keyboard kudos to them for that so if I had to summarize the KB 460

00:03:54.480 --> 00:04:00.519
in some way the highest praise I can give it I think is that I have nothing

00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:04.239
to complain about I'm personally not a huge fan of Cherry

00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:09.599
MX red switches so it's not really made for me personally but other than that

00:04:07.959 --> 00:04:15.479
there's nothing wrong with it it's driverless it has all the function keys

00:04:11.760 --> 00:04:18.040
that you might want it's solidly

00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:20.799
built no complaints and when it comes to keyboards if there's not something

00:04:19.400 --> 00:04:25.120
that's driving you crazy about it it's probably just as well that it gets out of your way and you have nothing to

00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:29.680
complain about with it thank you for checking out my unboxing and overview of
