welcome to my unboxing of the filco magist stouch 2 camouflage 10 keyless so

2
00:00:13,679 --> 00:00:22,480
what does 10 keyless mean it means this is an 87 key keyboard it is

3
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:27,240
short here even like a generic keyboard it's like shorter see shorter so 10

4
00:00:25,519 --> 00:00:33,600
keyless is for people who want space savings and don't necessarily need a

5
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:36,440
full number pad well or a number pad at

6
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:41,800
all all right so what do we got inside the Box first thing we find is a manual

7
00:00:39,559 --> 00:00:47,559
that doesn't appear to have a word of English on it sweet ah there it is yes

8
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:52,079
handling a keyboard when you're using a keyboard dropping or any kinds of

9
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:55,039
activities may lead to accidents Place keyboard on a secure flat surface when

10
00:00:53,559 --> 00:01:00,760
in use the keyboard is an electrical device that contains circuits and Transformers do not expose the keyboard

11
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:03,280
to water or any other liquid excellent

12
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:06,799
good advice adopting MX switches Cherry MX switches are mechanical switches

13
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:11,119
developed by ZF Electronics Corporation Germany key travel is 4 mm deeper than

14
00:01:09,439 --> 00:01:14,560
comparative models the actuation point is located at 2 mm from the top when

15
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:19,439
pressed down this keyboard uses individual cherrymx switches that give

16
00:01:16,439 --> 00:01:21,200
you light touch typing okay so

17
00:01:19,439 --> 00:01:26,640
mechanical keyboards if you guys don't know this already they are one 100

18
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:31,400
billion times better and this is all sort of my own personal opinion than

19
00:01:29,119 --> 00:01:37,280
keyboards that that are not mechanical because they are significantly more

20
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:42,600
comfortable they are significantly more satisfying to use because of the awesome

21
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:48,759
noises that they make and I can guarantee you like I I will put my

22
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:51,200
personal lonus guarantee of approval on

23
00:01:48,759 --> 00:01:55,960
the concept that they will make you type faster almost everyone I've ever encount

24
00:01:54,360 --> 00:02:00,960
no everyone I've ever encountered it's a guarantee has sat down in front of a

25
00:01:58,479 --> 00:02:04,719
mechanical keyboard started to use it and realized after a short period of

26
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:09,239
time that they are typing faster on it and we're talking significantly maybe 10

27
00:02:06,479 --> 00:02:14,160
maybe 15 20% faster than you can on a membrane keyboard even if it's a really

28
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:19,360
good membrane switch keyboard so let's keep on going with this guy right here

29
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:24,000
so this one uses uh cherry black switches so the black switches are

30
00:02:21,879 --> 00:02:30,400
actually here there's a key remover so I'm going to show you guys what exactly

31
00:02:26,879 --> 00:02:32,360
is the Deo with the names of the various

32
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:37,200
Cherry switches so Cherry MX that is the brand of switches that are used and then

33
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:41,080
there okay this is a very interesting hold on I'll don't worry I'll figure it

34
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:44,800
out like so you put it under the thing and then probably from oh okay he's

35
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:50,200
laughing at me now cuz I think you're supposed to go this way um so this is a

36
00:02:48,239 --> 00:02:54,720
key removal tool and not not the awesomest one that I've ever seen there

37
00:02:52,599 --> 00:02:57,840
that is what makes this a Cherry MX black the fact that the actual switch

38
00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:01,959
right there is black so the characteristics of black is that they

39
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:07,640
have a linear less tactile feel so you don't feel that that click that sort of

40
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:11,560
that spring that that uh you don't really hear the noise as well other than

41
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:17,120
the key bottoming out so if you put the camera close you can actually

42
00:03:14,239 --> 00:03:20,879
hear if I don't bottom them out they're quite quiet they don't have that they

43
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:24,440
don't have that loudness that is associated with mechanical keyboards

44
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:28,360
however it's still going to be louder to type on than a membrane keyboard just

45
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:32,560
because most membrane keyboards aren't built very well and it has a nice solid

46
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:36,319
back plane that you're going to be landing on if you're typing with any

47
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:40,239
kind of force whatsoever so I'm going to pull off a few more key caps here this

48
00:03:37,959 --> 00:03:45,040
is probably the faster way to do it versus that tool that's the worst tool

49
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:46,400
I've ever seen for removing key caps um

50
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:51,640
not that I'm like criticizing or anything but that's sort of not yeah not

51
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:57,200
ideal and we're going to replace the WD keys with the

52
00:03:54,040 --> 00:04:00,319
included WD keys so let's have a look at

53
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:01,959
the layout layout is for me the the deal

54
00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:05,079
maker or the deal breaker of any mechanical keyboard and it can be the

55
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:09,480
difference between a keyboard that I love to type on but I absolutely hate

56
00:04:07,439 --> 00:04:13,799
and a keyboard that I hate to type on but I absolutely have to use because

57
00:04:11,599 --> 00:04:22,160
there's no getting away from it this has my favorite possible layout no changes

58
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:25,000
long shift key long shift key long Enter

59
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:29,720
key long backspace key no long delete key awesome I I absolutely love it in

60
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:34,000
every possible way you've got a fun function key here instead of a Windows

61
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:38,680
key I personally consider this to be a boon for gamers because I don't think I

62
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:42,520
put those on all the way there we go a boon for gamers because you're a lot

63
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:46,479
less likely to be bothered if you accidentally hit a function key CU then

64
00:04:43,919 --> 00:04:54,520
you'll have to like accidentally also hit like f three to mute your audio like

65
00:04:51,039 --> 00:04:56,199
what are what are the freaking odds like

66
00:04:54,520 --> 00:05:00,800
um whereas if you have a Windows key here that could potentially bother you

67
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:02,400
however I actually use the Windows key

68
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:06,240
so having a Hardware switch to turn it off because I often forget to turn it

69
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:12,280
back on is really annoying because I'll actually press on it I want like the

70
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:17,759
menu to come up or I want to uh cycle through my Windows using Windows Tab and

71
00:05:14,479 --> 00:05:20,600
I can't so there you go Windows key

72
00:05:17,759 --> 00:05:25,919
function key uh it does have arrow keys however you notice the number pad is

73
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:28,360
missing everything else is pretty normal the one thing that you'll notice is

74
00:05:27,039 --> 00:05:33,199
missing so it's still got your scroll lock and it still got your um caps lock

75
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:37,080
buttons or lights but it doesn't have a number lock button which makes sense

76
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:41,400
because there is no number pad keys are labeled on the tops

77
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,680
although filco does have a ton of options for keyboards we're actually

78
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:50,240
going to be taking a look at a fair number of their keyboards they have lots of different colors of keyboards lots of

79
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:53,560
different colors of switches lots of different configurations in terms of the

80
00:05:52,039 --> 00:05:58,720
actual layouts of the keyboards there are one of the most um varied keyboard

81
00:05:56,639 --> 00:06:03,560
manufacturers out there but the one thing they all have in Comm common is

82
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:06,080
they all use high quality

83
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:10,199
builds and they all use high quality switches so let's just take a quick look

84
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:14,759
at the rest of the physical attributes of the of the camo keyboard here which

85
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:19,639
actually I was expecting to look kind of cheese ball but it actually looks kind

86
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:24,280
of cool uh okay so you got a flip up here which will allow you to tilt the

87
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:28,759
keyboard a little bit you can see again just build quality the weight of it the

88
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:34,919
proper rubber that's used on it it's not going to go anywhere no matter how hard you mash on it we've also got rubber

89
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:38,039
here here here and here and then your part number and your serial number on

90
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:43,120
the bottom in case you need it for any particular reason so I think that pretty

91
00:06:40,840 --> 00:06:46,880
much it comes down to uh it pretty much comes down to what your personal taste

92
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:51,639
is in terms of the look the layout the switches and what you're more what you

93
00:06:49,759 --> 00:06:56,000
like best so in general blacks are considered more of a a gaming key switch

94
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,639
as opposed to a typist key switch so depending what you use your computer for

95
00:06:57,639 --> 00:07:04,440
you might want to go with a different skew however I don't think most typists are going to be interested in the camo

96
00:07:02,199 --> 00:07:07,240
uh the camo sort of look so it's probably appropriate that they used a

97
00:07:05,599 --> 00:07:11,800
gaming switch on this model thank you for checking out my unboxing and first

98
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:13,599
look at filo's Magis touch camo 10

99
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:21,520
keyless don't forget to subscribe to L's Tech tips and don't forget it also includes a PS2 adapter in camo green and

100
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:26,520
these keyboards all include n key rollover I think well I think it's like

101
00:07:24,039 --> 00:07:29,759
hold on just SEC yes it does have full End Key rollover which means you can

102
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:33,280
press as many keys as you want and you won't run into any difficulty also I've

103
00:07:31,319 --> 00:07:36,599
been informed by Slick who's actually more of a keyboard nerd than I am that

104
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:40,479
this is apparently better than prying them off with your fingers because if you do it with your fingers you can

105
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:45,280
apply pressure in the wrong way and you can accidentally damage the switch so that's why they have this tool which

106
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:50,560
seems goofy to me but apparently it's for a reason so there you have it thank

107
00:07:47,319 --> 00:07:50,560
you for watching
