I get requests to cover budget gaming gear all the time so when my new friend from Chinese brand grande Vella reached out to me to review a couple of their products I figured why not today I'm taking a look at the new 40 US dollar mechanical keyboard called the mechanical Eagles at 77 first let's take a look at the design of this thing obviously it's a 10 Kahless board and there aren't any additional macro keys or midi keys on the keyboard there is however a function key and wealth of additional functions that can be found on the F keys as well as lighting settings under the number keys and on insert home and end windows lock is also available and you can increase the brightness of all of the back lights with the arrow keys the function keys all worked for me with no additional software or driver installation and the lighting controls worked the same way I'm not sure if it was necessary to have a different lighting setting for each number key and honestly I couldn't figure out what some of them did but I guess they do a decent job of giving you customization without the hassle of installing software the function on the insert key seems to be the best totally through a range of cool lighting effects now I bet up to this point you thought this might have been an RGB keyboard and I don't blame you I felt that too but then I realized it's actually a multicolored keyboard instead each room has a different colored backlight giving a rainbow effect from top to bottom so if you'd like to have all of your back lights and uniform you're out of luck here rather than try and explain all of the lighting effects available I'm gonna show you guys what they look like now the build of the keyboard actually feels quite good the backplate is made from a solid feeling aluminium with a curved Ridge at the front and the Eagle logo at the top the overall look is really simple but I think the key caps take away from this a little they used an unusual font which looks pretty good but that'll be subjective what makes it look clutter however is the secondary functions especially along the number row and for me this made the keyboard look a little confusing and yeah cluttered as I said the underside is all one piece and it's made from plastic with two wing emblems included there's two flip-down rubberized feet attached and two small rubber pads at the front so standard stuff here the switches on the model I receive with blue switches and it clearly copies of the Cherry MX blues they gave the same loud click you feedback and as a fan of the Cherry MX blue is actually family it's really great to use I can't comment on the reliability over time obviously but as far as I can tell they seem good I was also impressed with the low amount of key wobble on the keyboard too for those that like a sound test this is what they sounded like overall I was actually surprisingly impressed by this budget mechanical keyboard to be honest I didn't expect big things coming from a Chinese brand that I'd never heard of and with the price tag being so low I mentioned this was a budget keyboard remember well you're probably wondering how budget I'm talking on Amazon you can pick this baby up for just $39 and 59 cents making it far and away the cheapest mechanical keyboard I've ever used sure it is a 10k this keyboard and you have to be happy with having rainbow back lights but I honestly found this a delight to type on them for those that want copies of other cherry MX's it also comes in black brown red and purple switches according to the box there's a lot of functions available by default too and it was nice not having to install any software to use them all oh yeah and 87k anti-ghosting n key rollover is supported to the wall up I've got to say this offers the best value pure typing experience I've ever come across if your budget is tight and you want to just have that mechanical keyboard feel and feedback then this thing could be the go for under 40 US dollars I can't really bring myself to complain about almost anything and even without back lining it would have been a good price unfortunately I couldn't find anywhere to buy this in Australia maybe I'll have to import some do you guys know of any stability value mechanical keyboards let me know in the comments I'm your host man as always and I'll see you guys next time youtubers like me depend on your support to continue improving the quality and content of our videos to support the channel directly consider becoming a patron to also get access to a heap of cool rewards and exclusive giveaways also don't forget you can check prices and buy the products I looked at in this video through the Amazon links in the video description below thank you kindly for supporting me and the hardware on box channel it means a lot to me and I really do appreciate it and in return I'll continue to work as hard as I can to keep producing the content you enjoy
