1 00:00:00,599 --> 00:00:08,580 I got a wounding 68g how did I get it 2 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:11,639 anyway let's open it up and take a look 3 00:00:08,580 --> 00:00:14,099 at the super cool lekker analog switches 4 00:00:11,639 --> 00:00:19,199 that are in this guy wooding makes some pretty good stuff but they're mostly 5 00:00:16,020 --> 00:00:21,539 known for using analog switches and for 6 00:00:19,199 --> 00:00:25,500 having basically the fastest keyboard you're gonna try or one of the fastest 7 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:31,140 at the very least there's basically zero latency sub 1 millisecond is what they 8 00:00:28,140 --> 00:00:34,680 like to say uh how do I open this from 9 00:00:31,140 --> 00:00:36,300 either side this is Sammy's so I want to 10 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:40,500 be a little careful I don't want to break any packaging but let's take a 11 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:44,340 look at what we get in the Box itself we have got our keyboard it says take 12 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:47,460 control and the cool wrist strap I've actually seen these before and then 13 00:00:46,020 --> 00:00:53,399 we've got this little greetings from looting that I I'm gonna open I'm sorry 14 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:55,620 Sammy I'll try so hard not to 15 00:00:53,399 --> 00:00:59,760 not to ruin anything for you I've got a little greeting card that's super cute 16 00:00:57,539 --> 00:01:02,820 it's a really minor thing but you know it just it's just cute when you buy it 17 00:01:01,500 --> 00:01:07,619 and you open it up it makes it feel just a little a little nice about your purchase but I'll try to put that back 18 00:01:05,939 --> 00:01:11,159 for Sammy since it's got nothing else in there we've got a quick start guide that 19 00:01:09,180 --> 00:01:15,119 you can use a QR code to access well that's pretty handy as much as I don't 20 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:19,380 like to gate things with phones yeah it's just you know it's less less uh 21 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:24,240 less environmental destruction speaking of which we've got a plastic little 22 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:28,619 protector here what just fell oh cardboard what else do 23 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:33,600 we have we've got a couple of extra switches in here so our wooding 60hg is 24 00:01:31,740 --> 00:01:37,259 hot swappable so if you need to swap any of those out you can do it while it's 25 00:01:34,860 --> 00:01:41,040 hot no problem I'm guessing this is a part of the wrist rest to attach it a 26 00:01:39,420 --> 00:01:45,960 little rubber piece here with some screws and then what else do we have I 27 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,960 don't know what these screws are for probably part of the keyboard that's 28 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:54,000 actually kind of nice you know you don't usually strip them when you're taking it apart and putting it back together but 29 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:57,060 it can happen so yeah I'm actually really impressed that they sent it with 30 00:01:55,259 --> 00:02:01,619 extra screws buy box now comes with two extra lequis 31 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:07,680 switches these lacquer switches are basically like a normal switch except for instead of any leaves or pins it's 32 00:02:05,700 --> 00:02:11,400 just a hall effect sensor what that does though is lets them be analog you can 33 00:02:09,780 --> 00:02:14,879 move it a little bit forward if your character just wants to walk but you 34 00:02:13,020 --> 00:02:17,940 could also do Full Tilt forward if you want to run so you can do that with your 35 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:22,620 keyboard now these were actually in the last wooden keyboard we checked out the 2he I don't think our firmware was 36 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:27,540 working very well and so we're going to give it a much better shot this time the 37 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:33,300 nice thing about the 60 he is that it is obviously a 60 keyboard so it is much 38 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:36,720 smaller that kind of layout and size is also just a lot more popular right now 39 00:02:34,739 --> 00:02:39,900 people realize that not a lot of them actually need their efro as long as they 40 00:02:38,459 --> 00:02:45,480 have a function key and a good chunk of people don't need a numpad or at least not an attached one if you do feel like 41 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:50,940 you buy a smaller keyboard like a tkl 60 65 whatever at any point you can buy a 42 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:54,420 separate numpad plug it in you should be good to go if you need that like for 43 00:02:52,379 --> 00:02:57,840 bank statements or Excel entries or anything like that the nice thing about 44 00:02:55,860 --> 00:03:02,280 this though is that it's just tiny it's tiny tiny tiny and we get that big gamer 45 00:03:00,300 --> 00:03:04,800 feel from it I will be frank I don't know why they have a wrist strap there's 46 00:03:03,599 --> 00:03:09,480 a lot of things I do get about this keyboard that are actually really cool and great and the wrist strap kind of 47 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:13,620 looks neat I guess at the end of the day you can just choose to not install it if 48 00:03:11,580 --> 00:03:16,920 that's what you prefer but you know it's it's the whole experience we want to we 49 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:20,480 want to get this whole thing yeah it's for that hardcore gamer feel 50 00:03:20,879 --> 00:03:25,500 and then we just grew it together and 51 00:03:23,879 --> 00:03:30,560 then boom you've got a wrist strap making sure I do it right because it's your keyboard I don't know what's going 52 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,560 on 53 00:03:31,620 --> 00:03:37,140 so yeah it's like a WeMo while we're looking at the back though I'm gonna 54 00:03:35,340 --> 00:03:40,260 check out what it says here as well as the feet they're not adjustable so 55 00:03:38,940 --> 00:03:47,159 you're not going to get one two three stage feet or anything like that but they've got four rubber pads here and uh 56 00:03:45,180 --> 00:03:52,019 you know it should do just fine it's not the heftiest keyboard it's about 605 57 00:03:49,379 --> 00:03:55,799 grams but the reality is with something like this that you want small and a 58 00:03:54,360 --> 00:04:01,980 wrist strap to keep it ready to go you kind of want it to be a little light it's a plastic shell there is a steel 59 00:03:59,819 --> 00:04:06,000 plate in here so if you want to change that out feel free that's kind of the 60 00:04:03,900 --> 00:04:11,459 nice thing about the wooding 60 he is that because it's a 60 there are a ton 61 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,840 of 60 cases that you can just pop it in 62 00:04:11,459 --> 00:04:16,380 something else it'll probably sound and look a lot nicer not that they've done a 63 00:04:14,700 --> 00:04:20,699 bad job I actually kind of like the little wooden crown logo one nice thing 64 00:04:19,199 --> 00:04:25,620 that I didn't really point out is on the back it says we made the wooding 60 he 65 00:04:23,100 --> 00:04:28,440 for you please take good care of her oh it's really cute I'm not gonna try to 66 00:04:27,300 --> 00:04:32,340 read those because they're all hand script and I can't read it yeah it looks 67 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:37,979 good and if you like the black and yellow aesthetic then you know what hey this is maybe the keyboard for you for 68 00:04:35,580 --> 00:04:43,139 example this is a 65 so it won't quite fit but we just built the tofu 65 2.0 69 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:48,600 for a different video think of the power and capability of a keyboard like this 70 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:52,680 in a nice solid aluminum case like this oh my God I bet you it's just fantastic 71 00:04:51,060 --> 00:04:56,759 and you can do that if you want to we're not going to do it today but it's really 72 00:04:55,020 --> 00:05:00,419 nice having that option you know just initial Impressions it 73 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:05,759 looks and sounds pretty decent we're going to do a little more thorough typing test and game on it but not 74 00:05:03,840 --> 00:05:10,500 before a word from our sponsor Corsair thanks to Corsair for sponsoring today's 75 00:05:07,500 --> 00:05:12,479 video their Xenon Flex is a 45 inch OLED 76 00:05:10,500 --> 00:05:16,740 monitor that bends to your needs no literally it seamlessly bends from a 77 00:05:14,699 --> 00:05:20,820

00:05:30,840 --> 00:05:36,240 your back to add a little flexibility to your life check out Corsair Xenia on 82 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:40,380 Flex in the description below probably the best feature at least in my opinion 83 00:05:38,580 --> 00:05:45,120 is the fact that their utility software is called utility which is just 84 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:48,840 absolutely Splendid name you can do a lot with it you can change the RGB you 85 00:05:46,919 --> 00:05:53,639 can change the brightness you can change the actuation points on all the switches 86 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:57,419 you can customize it to whatever you want do you want your switches to 87 00:05:55,259 --> 00:06:01,020 actuate once you hit basically almost nothing like 0.1 millimeter normally 88 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:05,520 it's your mouse but you never know maybe it's some weird game and you've got to just Mash a key you can do that so that 89 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:10,800 as soon as you let off the press it's ready to go again you don't have to release the key all the way for it to 90 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:14,039 register that it's ready to go so you can go just stay right on the bottom 91 00:06:12,479 --> 00:06:18,479 there and just smash it as fast as you can luckily you know button mashing is 92 00:06:15,900 --> 00:06:22,440 uh no longer as much of a thing in games not a qts are kind of dead but they 93 00:06:20,580 --> 00:06:27,660 still come up every now and then now as for this keyboard is it even detected 94 00:06:25,380 --> 00:06:34,139 yep okay now what I really need to know is how is this profile working digital 95 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:37,620 profile analog profile so what if I change the brightness down if there's a 96 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:42,240 save to keyboard but it's grayed out like it definitely changes like as soon 97 00:06:40,199 --> 00:06:47,880 as I change something find device here let me find devices yes 68g connect okay 98 00:06:46,380 --> 00:06:54,120 on utility web you have to give permission that's fine device found 99 00:06:50,479 --> 00:06:55,740 update sure uh while this is updating as 100 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:59,940 you could see before there is definitely RGB on the keyboard and that's really 101 00:06:58,199 --> 00:07:03,840 nice because while the keycaps are ABS they're a nice shine through ABS so it's 102 00:07:01,740 --> 00:07:07,199 really easy to see the RGB right through them that's kind of it's a surprising 103 00:07:05,460 --> 00:07:10,979 sticking point for a lot of people they ask me you know how do I get keycaps 104 00:07:08,940 --> 00:07:14,400 where I can see them with the RGB like I want to see the letters and the legend 105 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:17,460 lit up and yeah it's just shine through keycaps they're not that hard to find 106 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:20,880 It's just sometimes harder to find a really nice quality set yeah it just 107 00:07:19,199 --> 00:07:25,139 says you need to give permissions to the bootloader called wooding restore and I 108 00:07:23,340 --> 00:07:29,220 click the give permission button and then it's like it wants to connect to 109 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:34,319 the device wouldn't restore paired I say okay connect 110 00:07:31,979 --> 00:07:38,160 maybe I have to hit continue again we were trying it with the web utility 111 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:41,400 and it didn't work very well but once we downloaded the proper app set it up 112 00:07:39,900 --> 00:07:44,940 updated all the firmware and all that it seems good to go now if I go back from 113 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:50,520 performance to color and I change the brightness off means off half means half 114 00:07:48,300 --> 00:07:53,400 and full means full jelly what's jelly like 115 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:56,039 oh that's cool it's like Ripple but a little different that's sweet I you know 116 00:07:54,900 --> 00:08:00,419 I'm not crazy about this I would probably just leave it on like No Effects and keep it on just playing RGB 117 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:03,900 or I'd set it to a primary color we're just gonna set it to wait 118 00:08:02,039 --> 00:08:07,080 and then performance mode though this is super cool here's where we've got our 119 00:08:05,220 --> 00:08:11,940 lacquer switch and then you can the set the per key actuation so if you only 120 00:08:09,300 --> 00:08:15,960 want like your W for moving forward to actuate at the very top you can set it 121 00:08:13,380 --> 00:08:19,379 to just W which is super cool left click on the keys to select them or while 122 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:23,520 holding down left click select multiple Keys move the actuation slider to give 123 00:08:21,660 --> 00:08:27,660 them custom actuation points then wrap the trigger dynamically actuates and 124 00:08:25,620 --> 00:08:31,020 resets your keys based on your intention to press or release the key it starts 125 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:34,979 and ends after the actuation point tachyon mode optimizes your keyboard for 126 00:08:33,060 --> 00:08:39,180 input speed when enabled every keepass responds as fast as possible the RGB 127 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:42,959 effects are disabled analog stability might be affected okay well I don't want 128 00:08:41,039 --> 00:08:46,440 to affect analog stability but let's say you don't want to set actuation points 129 00:08:44,820 --> 00:08:49,620 you just want basically one of the fastest keyboards on the market so that 130 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:54,839 you can't blame your equipment anymore when you dot you can only blame yourself you miss that shot it's not because the 131 00:08:53,279 --> 00:08:59,459 keyboard or the mouse sucks one nice thing too is it comes with a bunch of different profiles that comes set up 132 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:03,120 with just typing rapid bracing and mix movement I don't understand why mix 133 00:09:01,560 --> 00:09:06,360 movement is thing but sure I'm just going to stick with typing profox it 134 00:09:04,560 --> 00:09:10,440 seems pretty typical across the board at 0.8 millimeter actuation for us the cool 135 00:09:08,820 --> 00:09:14,580 thing too is that this thing comes with eight megabytes of onboard memory so you 136 00:09:12,300 --> 00:09:18,420 can save all of these profiles to the keyboard so if you take it and you go 137 00:09:16,560 --> 00:09:21,779 somewhere else it's all still set up exactly the way you like it this thing 138 00:09:20,100 --> 00:09:25,820 does come stock with a bunch of poron and EPDM foam layers and 139 00:09:26,100 --> 00:09:33,660 it doesn't sound bad the space bar and some of the stabilizers could use a 140 00:09:31,140 --> 00:09:36,959 little bit of work but it's not awful by any means and I don't think that you 141 00:09:35,459 --> 00:09:40,200 like actually need to update them yourself I think 142 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:45,000 that if you want to just buy this and leave it stock that is perfectly acceptable and it's going to be you know 143 00:09:43,620 --> 00:09:49,500 surprisingly impressive to a lot of people many of you if you're not used to 144 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:53,100 a 60 or 65 keyboard for anything that's not on the board that's missing you can 145 00:09:51,420 --> 00:09:56,880 hit this function key and it basically acts as an extra layer of key presses so 146 00:09:55,500 --> 00:10:03,560 for instance I don't have an F5 to refresh I'm going to hit function five and that works as F5 basically let's go 147 00:10:09,300 --> 00:10:14,519 104 96 it's not my fastest it's actually 148 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:18,180 definitely one of the slower tests I've done and you know what while a lot of 149 00:10:16,620 --> 00:10:22,260 you are going to buy this specifically for the analog switches one thing to 150 00:10:20,519 --> 00:10:27,480 remember even though this is a hot swap board you can't just pop in tactiles if 151 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:31,019 you like tactiles the lecture switches are linear that's kind of on purpose so 152 00:10:29,459 --> 00:10:34,860 that you can have all of that play in the actuation for us and like the analog 153 00:10:32,940 --> 00:10:38,820 movement that you want to experience is only really going to be available 154 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:42,360 properly at least in a linear switch if you like linears that's great but if 155 00:10:40,620 --> 00:10:46,260 you're really into tactiles or clickies this thing honestly might not be for you 156 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:49,560 that's kind of a really big deal for a lot of people but for gamers everyone 157 00:10:47,820 --> 00:10:53,040 seems to love really light linear switches to have that instant kind of 158 00:10:51,180 --> 00:10:56,820 response I'm really into tactiles right now so it's not so great for me as is 159 00:10:55,079 --> 00:11:01,260 evidenced by this typing test but that's not why you're buying the board you're not buying the board for that so let's 160 00:10:59,339 --> 00:11:04,620 play some games and look at that I'm going like eight kilometers eight miles 161 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:08,940 an hour nine miles an hour whatever and then I press it all the way and rein so 162 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:12,660 like pedal to the metal oh man and for like it's such a big deal for racing 163 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:16,380 games without a controller when you're pressing keys instead of using a 164 00:11:14,579 --> 00:11:22,140 thumbstick a lot of the time pressing down a or D to turn left to right you're 165 00:11:19,260 --> 00:11:24,839 going to like do a full turn or a full turn you know so you're just like 166 00:11:23,220 --> 00:11:29,100 tapping it a lot of the time to try to get that really like Smooth curve in a 167 00:11:26,940 --> 00:11:33,240 racing game whereas with this you actually have the full capability to 168 00:11:31,019 --> 00:11:37,079 just you know just just turn just turn a little bit you'd have to play with the 169 00:11:35,100 --> 00:11:41,100 actuation points quite a bit to get it exactly where you want it but with the 170 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:44,459 turns it's definitely a lot more difficult to just tap it a little bit 171 00:11:42,839 --> 00:11:47,880 while you're playing but yeah it's honestly working and it's honestly like 172 00:11:46,140 --> 00:11:54,779 really really cool I don't think I've ever wanted to feature more in keyboards 173 00:11:52,740 --> 00:11:59,339 just all the time I don't know how much I'd actually use it personally uh when 174 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:02,880 it comes to racing games or fighting games or what else do I use a controller 175 00:12:01,620 --> 00:12:08,880 for that's pretty much it anything involving shooting on basically keyboard and mouse well it definitely works the 176 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:12,959 RGB looks good it feels and sounds pretty decent especially for you know a 177 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:17,640 keyboard that's more of a gaming Centric keyboard at 175 dollars though while it 178 00:12:15,839 --> 00:12:20,760 might not be the keyboard for me it could definitely be the keyboard for you 179 00:12:19,380 --> 00:12:25,019 especially when you're comparing it to more other like gaming Brands like 180 00:12:22,560 --> 00:12:29,700 Corsair or Logitech honestly I would buy the wooding every time if those are your 181 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:34,740 options there are plenty of other options if you want a really nice and 182 00:12:32,579 --> 00:12:38,339 fancy quote-unquote mechanical keyboard but the reality is if you want analog 183 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:43,200 switches this is one of your only options if not the only option so yes 184 00:12:41,279 --> 00:12:46,620 I'm gonna say that I would totally buy the booting 60he if it's kind of what 185 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:51,120 you're looking for I think it's not a bad buy and uh go for it it's a pretty 186 00:12:49,139 --> 00:12:54,420 cool keyboard thanks for watching this is ShortCircuit if you want to watch 187 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:58,260 another show circuit about keyboards we did the key boom recently that thing was 188 00:12:56,639 --> 00:13:01,700 really cool it was clear see-through pretty similar price too
