me onyx light-years ahead of the game that is their slogan this is the Seibel 60 high performance gaming keyboard and this keyboard seems to have everybody very very excited about it so there's a bunch of different things that me onyx is going to call out on the back here and I will go ahead and run you through them it has media and illumination function keys up here it has a heavy-duty braided cable it has a full speed USB 2.0 hub that's actually a really good feature to see so many keyboards still include USB 1.1 hubs which is infuriating if you go and plug a flash drive in oh why is it going so slow well that's why okay it has green backlit Kia lumination which I love I love green lighting whether it's in the case or on your components or whatever the case may be love it I think it looks great it has a Munich's action key instead of a Windows key over on this side so you're not going to accidentally bump that while you're gaming a detachable wrist rest is also featured on the bottom which I'll show you when I open it up and oh my I can't believe they put this on the box okay we'll get to that okay black cherry MX mechanical key switches that is critical why is this expensive because it uses proper mechanical key switches cherry blacks so if you use any keyboard that has cherry black switches then you will know approximately what it's going to feel like catchable rest rest green backlit multi level brightness control neonics action key to access light flash media controls okay six key rollover and I'm going to skip this next one because it's hilarious I'm saving it for last okay you can connect through port connector ports for audio and mic full speed USB 2.0 hot plug and play and check look at this rage proof durability yeah I know right rage proof durability so we're gonna we're gonna have to have a look at this thing okay the Onyx Ziegel 60 start has been born model overview so they have to say for themselves the Seibel 60 is a fusion of the best keyboard components together great gaming features that give you the edge to your game engineered with non tactile interesting mechanical black Cherry MX switches that deliver the best feel to every keystroke I'm gonna have to see what they mean by non tactile okay with a six key roll over that allows you to perform up to six simultaneous keystrokes with any key on the keyboard remember that is a limitation of USB not of the keyboard itself otherwise I'm sure it can do more than six in addition to the performance feature that offers smart functions like to port USB 2.0 hub audio and mic extensions of media control keys for full integration with your desktop setup neato neat so neat semi Tiki neat okay responsiveness is two millimeters four millimeters to the bottom of the key let's look at all these technical specifications switch mount is 18 karat gold-plated backed Cherry MX black linear mechanical switch actuation force of 60 grams so if you care about any of this stuff you can read it here and finally we have installation which should be fairly straightforward for a keyboard and that's about it now let's look at the zile keyboard itself okay okay you know what I had said I have our I had glossed over the thick braided cable but I did not know how thick a braided cable could be this is a heavy-duty cable I will give them that check this out you guys this is like the thickness of a of my pinky finger almost huge look look thickness compared to an iPhone that is that is a heavy-duty cable if I have ever seen one that's the first thing that stands up to me about this particular keyboard right as I open it up here so I'm creeping towards assistant which I actually this is a new camera assistant who I don't really have a nickname for yet we'll have to work on something you know maybe if you guys want to leave suggestions in the comments of this video for what you think my new assistants nickname should be this is not crazy Russian and this is not the cameraman somebody else alright at the end we are going to find two USB ports one of them is for the keyboard and you can see it has a picture of what looks like a keyboard on it one of them is for the hub which has the word hub on it and finally we have pass-throughs for our headphones as well as microphone so that instead of plugging them around to the back of the computer we can plug them around to the back of the keyboard where we will also find the USB hub so there's your mouse there's a USB key boom there you go alright let's attach the rest wrist rest after we have a look at the bottom of the keyboard so we've got a couple of these guys in case you want it to lean up a little bit more we've got four rubber pads on the bottom so well yeah it says our grippy it's not going to slip around once it's put down outfit rage Oh see we're finding out if it's rage proof already alright we have four more rubber pads on the bottom of the wrist rest let's go ahead and let goes on and there is a keyboard as its intended to be used so the first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to evaluate the layout because I'm pretty particular about keyboard layout and it's going to get major points off if they've done anything outlandish so first things first if I need to capitalize something that I'm typing with my right hand will I be able to reach the shift key the answer is yes I hate short shift keys I can't reach them next if I do something over here can I capitalize yes I can nice long shift keys both sides excellent finally I made a mistake can I reach the backspace key the answer is yes I hate short backspace keys they are me I wish they all died in a fire okay next let's look at the overall layout of the other stuff here as well so we've got our function keys up here mute volume down volume up play stop forward and back brightness and keyboard button okay I'm not 100% sure what that one does go ahead and leave comment on the video if you know and then everything else is a fairly standard layout actually everything here is pretty normal they haven't gone in like you know changed these and made this like a long delete or anything like that it's all pretty normal we've got LEDs here for our number lock caps lock and scroll lock number pad and you know I'm just gonna have a good look at what I think I need mmm that's actually really nice I wonder if the keys come off easily that's something I've noticed about mechanical keyboards in the past is I've actually been in the middle of gaming and a gum like like this and the control key pops off but it looks like these are a little bit more difficult to remove than that overall it has a very matte finish to it so you're not going to have too much trouble with like it looking like a greasy fingerprint cheeto covered mess in time these are fairly quiet actually for mechanical keyboard as well so that's a consideration you know when you're in a late night gaming session and you're typing away on the keyboard here I'll let you guys evaluate for yourselves actually so it's not very very quiet it's not like a laptop keyboard by any stretch of the imagination but for a mechanical keyboard that's actually pretty darn good and I think that's pretty much all they're civil why don't we plug it in and find out what it looks like in the dark okay so we figured out what the keyboard button up here on the f12 does so if you hold the me onyx button and press it it actually toggles the different lighting modes so you can see it's either WASD nothing there's WASD right now or the full keyboard is backlit that looks amazing I hope I hope you guys can see how good this looks all of the keys are very evenly lit which is very impressive that's that's really cool because a lot of the time you see these backlit keyboard where it's kind of like it's bright over here and dim here and there's like another hotspot over on this side no looks really good and let's see what we've got in terms of brightness control so it looks like we have three different levels so there's the dimmest there's the next and there's the brightest personally I'd have this on brightest all the time I think it looks out standing so thank you for checking out my unboxing of the zville 60 don't forget to subscribe to Linus tech tips from our unboxings reviews and other computer videos
