ago we asked iconics if we could check out a few of their keyboards and you know what it took a while but at long last they have arrived the iconics zx75 is here we got two of them uh I also don't know if I'm pronouncing iconic's right kind of sounds like Articuno to me take that as you will this one says dark side on it so it's probably black or dark blue and it is indeed the Black Version as you can see here uh it's a TTC Ace key switch I am not familiar with them uh but it looks nice and it's got RGB and this one is uh oh it's green very cool this one's also got a TTC gold pink looks very pretty I'm actually really excited for this um it's a plastic board and it's got a bit of a hefty price tag that we'll get into later but I think the design is really cool and also it's wireless so if you need a wireless keyboard you're just gonna end up paying more money zx75 what's in here a little envelope with some quick start stuff it's mostly in what looks like simplified Chinese but I am not sure oh the back is English okay that's cool uh yeah cool it's just got a bunch of like indicator light status Stuff how to do with the wireless things you can do 2.4 gigahertz or Bluetooth which is very handy uh if you're doing the 2.4 gigahertz it stays at the 1000 Hertz polling rate that you'll get if you plug it in directly but if you do Bluetooth it's down to 125. totally fine for like typing but you probably don't want a game on this thing if it's in Bluetooth let's take a look at it it's got some cool keycaps on it that I can see through this little plastic case this is a really tight fit though they could have gone with a slightly larger slightly larger plastic sleeve oh underneath actually yeah sorry I mean you guys can see this here but I'm going to check out what's underneath we got a cable like other keyboards we've checked out it doesn't have a sleeve cable it's just a regular old USBC to a could be a little nicer I know that this guy is more expensive than some of the other boards we've looked at so you know higher expectations but that's all right we've also got a bunch of extra keycaps a little option oh it's the Mac stuff okay so this one is also another Mac uh easily adjusted to Mac keyboard I don't use Apple products it's not for me but I like that there's an option for people we've also got a switch puller and a keycap puller we've also got the USB dongle ah get out of there dongle as if you want to do Bluetooth it's USB a to c uh so if you only have C ports which is great for a lot of laptops you can still use this and then on top of that we've got this little oh it's a brush what okay I have not had a keyboard come with a brush yet they get extra points for this this is awesome I would love a little brush to just like wipe the cat hair and stuff off of my keyboard and out from the keycaps I want to keep this I don't care we've got two of these I'm putting this one in my pocket before I leave now the keyboard this thing is actually surprisingly Hefty for a plastic case uh let's give it away actually before I do anything else 1.15 kilograms so that's not super Hefty uh about not quite three pounds it's pretty cool though and actually really do like it it's really grippy on the bottom here it's a textured plastic and it's all see-through as well oh it's just super cool uh I think my only complaint so far I haven't even typed on this or anything so I don't know how it feels but my only complaint is that especially with it being see-through it would have been really nice to have like a silicone layer or something on the bottom or some foam I've got for reference I've got a portico 75 and that one is a similar plastic case like this but it comes with a big silicone pad on the very bottom that really helps deaden the sound so we'll see how this one is I'm going to open the black one and take a look at that just to take a quick look see I'm so excited I've actually been waiting for these for like a pretty long time they caught my eye on their website and you know I just thought they look neat they've got this really kind of retro design I don't know if this is an actual speaker or not but it looks like a little speaker Port that it's got a plastic knob on it nice and tactile I like the sound of it too oh these switches feel good too these are just linear spacebar could sound a little better it's a little Hollow but overall I actually really like how it sounds and you're getting 81 Keys it's basically it's a 75 so you're getting your fro still which is really nice for a lot of people and then like delete insert home end and then some arrow keys let's check out the green one though because what I'm really excited about is these keycaps they've got this really cool Camp life keycap set it's got Camp life there you know it's like a moon it's all green there's a little Camp symbol up there west east north and south directional buttons that's great and then they've got really cute um optional keycaps for the side here for like delete and insert and and whatnot they got a little campfire and a backpack and a tent and then I guess a compass or something I don't know I just think it's a cute keycap set I kind of want this too I oh I like these switches more the spacebar could be improved on this one as well I don't know anything about the stabilizers in here they're I'm not sure if they're clip-on or screw in and I can't quite see them so they might be clip on if I'm wrong I'm sorry it's just really hard to see through this board either way they sound pretty good these are definitely better than a lot of like manufacturers that you get like Corsair or Logitech or something and the spacebar can be improved it's not rattly it's just a little Hollow so you can put some foam in there or something and it would really bump it up oh one other really interesting thing to talk about is that these are KDA profile keycaps which I'm really not familiar with at all I've never typed on KDA I like sa I like SDA I like XDA but yeah I've never tried KDA and I'm not sure just kind of looks like a slightly lower version of sa I'm not I'm not sure don't quote me on that but it looks cool and you know what yeah it feels okay to type on kind of digging it one pretty cool thing that I just noticed is the knob is like this is Beefy I don't the push down is just crazy I've never had this tactile of a push down on a knob before and I'm kind of digging it I like how it's really hollowed out in the center too like you're not gonna miss that bam I'm doing it then on the back of the board we've got adjustable feet whoa those are just magnets okay so do you like reverse these or something how do these work okay so they're just like magnets that go in like this normally to store it away or whatever or to have it flat and then if you want a little bit more of an angle you flip them backwards and they've got the feet there how well does it stay actually stays okay it's not great because it's plastic on plastic and it's mostly using the magnet to hold it in place there's definitely like some slippage on the right here and it's not the keyboard slipping on the mat it's the feet slipping in the receptacle that they've got so I don't know beware of that if you want a higher typing angle then this might not be for you what else it's got a 6 000 milliamp hour battery for all the wireless charging that you want looks like there's two of them one here one here and then it's got an on off switch right here between cabled and wireless other than that it looks pretty standard really easy to take apart it looks like you just take apart a bunch of screws here and here and here lift the top off maybe take a few more off of the PCB and plate and whatnot and then it'll come up right apart yeah I guess that's my only complaint so far is that I really wish they'd done anything on the bottom just like a silicone layer or I mean you could tape it yourself and it would probably fix it but that's okay I'm gonna plug this guy in I'm gonna test it out I really wish this thing came with a green cable it really would have amped it up uh but we're not gonna check it out before we talk about our sponsor secret lab thanks to secret lab for sponsoring today's video secret lab chairs are engineered to keep you incredibly comfortable for long hours at work and play

get in those cracks and crevices brush off your keyboard you know I'll be anyone's probably laughing at this right now but honestly for any pet owners um or someone working in like a Dusty environment I don't know why it would be dusty but maybe it is this is great I would absolutely just brush my keyboard down once a week or something if I had something like this I was not kidding when I said I'm gonna try to steal it wow look at that it's see-through and you can just barely see the RGB lights on the back of this thing cool uh on the front it actually looks pretty good I like the shine through on the sides and in between these are not uh double shot PBT but uh they are using like a hundred percent PBT so they feel pretty good oh it doesn't say double shot on them the keycaps that we've got on the black one are double shot PBT these are dye sublimated and it still looks pretty good I actually really like the feeling of it both the quality of the keycap material as well as the uh KDA oh I just realized KDA is like kill death's assist and cool all right sweet that doesn't really matter but just neat um I got type on it now you know as I like to do I like I do like this board I don't know if I'd pay the price for it but I like it a lot especially the camping Motif and like the whole like green aesthetic that it's going for I really dig it okay let's go oh I screwed this up already okay I'm keeping this one I get one Mulligan oh no this is bad 99 95 I screw it up a bunch of times it's not the keyboard's fault I actually really like it I am a big fan honestly I still don't know what's up with this little area here I'm not sure it just looks it's just aesthetic I think it looks neat even if it's not actually a speaker I think it really fits this whole thing I don't know if I want see-through to be perfectly honest I actually really do like the whole see-through thing and I'm kind of upset that it doesn't happen more frequently but I I think with the solid green on the keycaps I would actually prefer a solid green plastic shell for this thing otherwise though it's great I I like the look of it I like the feel I like the typing experience it's pretty stiff and sturdy for plastic so obviously you know you're not getting a CNC aluminum shell which can contribute to a lot of the cost of a board we're going to take a look at the black one too just to see if you know it's just the green that kind of has me turned off on the transparency or not actually yeah I I honestly it's just the fact that it's green I which is crazy because I like colored like old Gaming stuff too um it's just the RGB is train I absolutely do like the black one as transparent maybe because it's a darker transparency so you can still see through but like especially on the back here with all these lights lit up that looks pretty cool I don't know the green I just I wish it was solid I can't even really explain why I just that's what I would prefer in this scenario yeah the black one see-through looks great feels great super pretty I'm going back to the green one though because that's the one I want it comes down to price if you're not paying for CNC aluminum then how much is molded plastic worth to you this guy is 215 dollars for the RGB version and then if you want the unlit non-RGB one it's 195. so you can save a bit of money but I mean honestly I think 20 bucks is worth the RGB it's it's good and I like it and I've paid about two hundred dollars for plastic boards I'm pretty torn I think that if you don't have anything yet and you need something Wireless like that's the big thing is I I don't need Wireless I will almost never need Wireless that's just not me I try to plug stuff in and there's a big value in this board in the fact that it has a big battery and it's got Wireless capabilities both both Bluetooth and uh 2.4 gig so I don't know I don't think it's worth it to me personally but I think if you're looking for a really cool looking board something that looks kind of retro uh maybe something with the cool camping uh keycaps like these are sick if you're really want KDA then maybe you're going to have to get one of these if they had a cheaper version that was only wired I would probably jump on this thing honestly just to have it in my collection that's the iconics zx75 if you want one I mean I hope they're still in stock we're going to have them linked below took forever for us to get ours unfortunately this is a ShortCircuit if you want to watch another ShortCircuit maybe check out The Cooler Master Video we got a Cooler Master board it's got hot swap in it how cool is that that's pretty cool"}
