welcome to my unboxing of the KB 460 from Funk this is a brand you haven't
seen featured much on the channel and the reason for that is that they just
don't really have that many products up till now so the ms3 is their gaming
mouse that I really feel is quite optimal for people with larger hands and
both Diesel and b-roll actually use them day-to-day at their editing stations and
this is the follow-up the KB 460 so first up inside we find a product manual
next inside we find a couple of little
presumably feet or something we'll find out what those are for later and we've
also got some nice closed cell foam packing material on either side of what
is a fairly sturdy
feeling Cherry MX red back lit
mechanical keyboard once we get the keyboard extracted from
the box we find a design that is actually kind of both subdued and
striking looking so the back plane itself has a matte soft touch feel that
looks very professional and very clean and then the keys themselves are
individually LED backlit with red LEDs
and to augment the LED shine there's actually a red layer underneath all of
the keys that is easily visible when the keyboard is not powered on see there you
see that so that the the LEDs Shine off of that as well making the lighting even
more striking the cable has the standard
Funk black and orange finish to it it's actually quite a thin cable which it
makes sense because it terminates in a single connector on the other end so it
should be borne in mind that these two USB 2.0 ports are non-powered ports so
you won't be able to plug in like the most you know power hungry like you know
you know a light in a fan that's for your desk or anything like that it's
meant to plug in your mouse and maybe a USB drive or something along those lines
the layout has nothing about it that I would complain about which is a definite
plus cuz there's usually something for me to gripe about when it comes to
keyboard layouts long shift Keys long backspace long enter media Keys built in
as well as built-in profile key so you can actually reprogram any of the keys
on the keyboard and then switch between the profiles using F7 to f11 along with
the function key next to the profile Keys there's also the funk mode key
which does a couple of things so number one is that it illuminates the funk mode
button no no it does more than that don't worry it also disables the Windows
key and allows all of these function keys to be accessed without holding
function so you can switch between profiles on the fly it has built-in
memory so there's absolutely no driver installation required and the keyboard
also supports full n key rollover on its
Cherry MX red switches now Cherry MX red switches are one of those hotly debated
items gamers will run around saying they're the best things since sliced
bread because they're extremely light making them great for fast repeated
pressing whereas typists will run around saying well no I can't type on anything
but blues and anything but Blues is terrible you know what there's probably
a middle ground somewhere here but there it is it comes with Cherry MX red
switches and given that it is a product that is marketed towards Gamers that
makes a fair bit of sense the last thing of note here is those little clips that
I had in the Box before so those go down here and then you actually clip the
wrist rest onto them that gives you a fair bit of flexibility in terms of the
range of motion of your wrist rest and a system that looks like it'll come off as
opposed to Breaking this is something I'm happy to see included I'm seeing
more and more manufacturers just flat out cheap out and not include wrist
rests and Funk has gone and included a nice wide one that spans the entire
width of the keyboard kudos to them for that so if I had to summarize the KB 460
in some way the highest praise I can give it I think is that I have nothing
to complain about I'm personally not a huge fan of Cherry
MX red switches so it's not really made for me personally but other than that
there's nothing wrong with it it's driverless it has all the function keys
that you might want it's solidly
built no complaints and when it comes to keyboards if there's not something
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
complain about with it thank you for checking out my unboxing and overview of
