welcome to my unboxing of the Philco magic such - this is a mechanical keyboard and you can see here Philco has so many different configurations of the keyboards they let you have pretty much whatever you could possibly want in terms of the layout so you can have you can have different layouts different sizes different switches under them you can have different color schemes of the keyboards we've unboxed the camel one before which is pretty cool this particular one has a black body cover with a 104 key arrangement so it doesn't have the missing number pad it has carry MX red switches which are basically like a softer version of the black switch so that is to say that it's very linear in terms of the travel there isn't like a resistance and then a click and then a release it's very linear and it requires less force to depress then a black switch which isn't to say that it has like a neurological disorder that causes it to be sad that is to just say that it is being pressed down depressed not like you know like it needs you know help from somebody to become undepressed although actually no because it doesn't need help to get I'm the one making it depressed and then if I would just stop putting so much pressure on it then it would be undepressed I don't know where I was gonna think that's okay so let's have a look at the keyboard itself Philco is a world renowned brand they're a Japanese brand pretty much if you're into keyboards and more people are into keyboards than you would think you have heard of Phil Coke you are familiar with Phil Coke and you probably want a Philco keyboard in some shape or form so they are known for their build quality very very solid keyboards it's not quite a model M but then again nothing is what can I say right however as far as modern keyboards go you aren't going to do any better than this there's absolutely no flex to the deck self there is that weight to it like it's not you know once again it's not a model and like you probably couldn't kill a man with it but you could stun it you know like if someone broke into your like you're gaming dead and you're all like oh yeah you know no like ax is nearby have your keyboard be like what pow and then hopefully you wouldn't wreck the USB port because this keyboard does plug into your computer by USB or ps2 with the adapter it features NQ rollover which means you can press as many things as you want without running into any difficulty with you know random ghosting and you know if you learn to type with your face then you could type with your face and that would be really weird looking but like probably effective in terms of the layout I love it because I'm one of those guys who wants to see long shifts enters and backspace keys because I have small hands and I can't reach a backspace key over here without moving my index finger off of the J which means that I'll get lost when I go back and then it'll be a total disaster and I don't know what to do um note all delete key thumbs up again don't function key on this one that's kind of interesting so two windows keys this isn't I guess not a more gaming oriented model whereas on the last gaming oriented one we had a function key here with the via keys up here and just two windows key on this side we've also got a full number pad and honestly in terms of the mechanical keyboard typing experience the number pad to me is very important because in my particular job I do a lot of typing on a number pad I can actually touch type faster on a number pad than I can actually touch type in terms of written like words and stuff because I enter a lot of numbers into my computer and mechanical keys make everything faster everyone that I have put a mechanical keyboard in front of types faster and is more comfortable than they are at a membrane key switch because they do provide more responsiveness more feedback and just the better they become depressed where he's under pressed more easily as well so that's a good thing to again build quality huge rubber pads quality rubber pads these are incredibly non-slip four of them on the bottom you can also flip up these guys right here and they have folding rubber pads that aren't going anywhere if you want to incline the keyboard a little bit and when it comes down to the fill comb yes they're expensive yes there are much better typing experience and yes you can get pretty much whatever you want in terms of the layout the color scheme the switches that you prefer try keyboards find out what you prefer personally I'm not an MX red guy it's just not my thing however that doesn't mean that I couldn't get this keyboard with different switches because feel cold rolls like that so don't forget to subscribe to learn this tech tips for more unboxings reviews another computer videos
