is my hair okay oh my god is that the microphone this disorder keyboard has optical switches what the optical switches let's find out right after this excuse to to increase pawn speed maintain fans where they are the CPU loads about this is 100 you got in to be tree I'm not afraid to do that excellent you got two cables four connections I made sure they're fine ready to roll my silence is too important to allow noise to jeopardize your comfort okay my new pump is better I'm in charge of the speed do not worry I'm not worried I'm just thinking about my life I know you were planning to disconnect my lights I'm afraid I cannot allow it to happen alright X 62 you know I can just go for camp software right Dmitry this conversation can serve no purpose anymore go game so thank you either for that introduction but this my friends is it the sword Excalibur se Spectrum quite a long name but at $99 the store is trying to really stir the market a little bit for under $100 for a mechanical keyboard that has plenty of features that even enthusiasts and also budget-conscious consumers will appreciate so let's dive right in so first thing I want to talk about is the price at $99 despite on what it looks like on the outside and what feels like you're actually getting a pretty good deal here now despite this being a plastic fake body that kind of standard it is competing directly against the large tech g4 13 which is at $89 price points and the HyperX alloy both of which feature this metal plating on top that reinforces the frame whereas the dis or excalibur SE spectrum doesn't and so therefore it exhibits a little bit of creaking sound when you bend the plastic so it's a little bit you know doesn't have the same level of quality feeling as other keyboards but I would say it's pretty good but one thing that sure has stood out as one quality concern for me are the slip out feet at the bottom not only do they not stick around when you're trying to push on the keyboard but they're they don't raise the keyboard as much and they're just super weak forcing them to really close off when you're applying any pressure on the keyboard and that's unfortunate the cable is non-removable it's coming from the right side which is you know it might not play nice with your symmetrical design the font here I find extremely weird you know I prefer something cleaner but you know the arrow keys the caps lock the shift all have something strange the the letters the q-and-a and just everything is a little bit weird it's got spaceship II type of fonts I prefer something more clean going this font think it's ugly but now let's talk about the positives and they're plenty to say about this new keyboard first of all the key caps are double shot so there's a double injection which means extra durability and will not faint as much in the long term I do like that media controls and other functions are built into the function keys with the function key only on the right side nothing on the left and the keyboard is completely drivers also which I appreciate because the Sora's previous driver software UI looks like just want to avoid it completely but here you can do macro commands on the fly between F 1 2 F 4 and you can lock the windows key you can enable n key roll over so pressing everything in here or 6 key roll over which is nice and the only thing that I wish that they removed from here would be the break the rules above the arrow keys which looks out of place the font is ridiculous default doesn't even match the font on the lettering between the f5 and f/8 we do have four levels of adjustable repeat acceleration so that is how often is the key that your Prime tries to press will be registered again not exactly sure how you would use this in the regular scenario but it is there so let me know if this is something that would be useful to you in a particular game or particular keyboard scenario but the main highlight here are the new Tesoro optical mechanical switches available in the clicky blues also linear version so will be coming down the line these have been code designed with Gator on and I'm very happy with what they've produced the cool thing about the optical switch is its lifespan of a hundred million clicks and that is twice of the MX blue switches which are ready 250 milli of course it's usually higher because you know it's good quality and everything but a hundred million keystrokes is your keyboard will die long before or maybe you will want to replace the keyboard long before the switches die so that's awesome they are hot swappable which is good because you can simply pull them out on the frame and later on when linear switches will be available and potentially different variation of the switch you can sort of set up your keyboard the way you want that's what the switches behavior to me they feel more closer to razor greens as far as I remember and not like the MX blues MX blues have a bit of a crispier tactile actuation point whereas these ones are feel a little bit lighter I really like these and because their infrared nature they are dust proof and spill proof which is awesome to have this type of element I do like the three built-in profiles that are constantly saved onto your keyboard because of this driverless nature that's awesome the only thing that does not change in color are your nebula caps lock and the G key so that always stays blue but I really like the perky color customization directly onto the keyboard simply by pressing the key you can cycle the color and then just save that as your profile it's pretty awesome to customize the keyboard just the way you want and here's a quick sample on how these switches sound and so the disorder Excalibur SD spectrum is an excellent keyboard I was not expecting that because with the source previous very clunky and ugly UI software and sort of basic and almost overpriced nature of other keyboards that we looked in the past this at 99 bucks seems like a really good value compared to other things on the market and have really recently launched you know perky RGB elimination very nice switch that is tactile linear is coming later just as long as you don't mind the very bare-bones look of this board I would definitely give this good award oh wow that rhymed Wow the only thing to really complain about are the little flip out feet that are completely weak and don't really hold the keyboard when you apply any pressure on it and just fold under the weight of the keyboard and really just if they change the font here luckily the key caps are removable so you know if you're completely dislike the font here you can change them because they're MX stem compatible that is a thing but yeah the soar if you're listening make sure to take that notes for future keywords but guys what do you think of this keyboard let us know in comments below at $99 stop too much to pay for sort of you know this over encompassing gaming keyboard with overspill features and dustproof is that is that something that you guys care about let us know in the comments down below I'm Dimitri with how are Canucks that's Eva right there behind camera well you will plug yourself in there huh yeah a little-little Ebru action in the video you're already in the beginning man you want to be in the end too all right
