Heca Tech 60% Mini Mechanical Keyboards-Phatom (Cherry MX Brown)

I have been wanting to try a 60% or a 65% keyboard for a long time.I have been wanting to try some switches that aren't reds.I have been wanting a keyboard that is pink, blue, and purple.So for $100 this is a no brainer. I have no idea what brown switches are supposed to feel like, but I like these. I wish there was more purple and pink in the color scheme but this board isn't my end game, it's just for fun to see how I like the smaller set up. When I plugged it in my computer said that "Poker" is now ready, but this is definitely a Heca Tech so I'm not sure why my computer sees it as a Poker.A pink light does light up beneath the caps lock when you plug it in, but to my knowledge this board is not back lit. (I pushed the controls to turn it on just to see and nothing comes on.)It does have 4 dip switches on the back. I'll have to figure out how those work, because I've never had a board with those.If you want a cute board that won't break the bank, try this one. If you want a perfect amazing name brand board to wow people on r/MechanicalKeyboards this might not be your bag of chips.

This is a solid 60% mechanical keyboard. I initially ordered the Cherry Reds by mistake and subsequently ordered the keyboard with Cherry Browns. Both of the keyboards I received were well constructed, the base is made of plastic and the keys feel nice. Both keyboards seem to have genuine Cherry keys and they both feel great (wish there was a Cherry Blue option, but then again I don't want to drive everyone in my office nuts with my incessant typing). Programming the keyboard is pretty simple and the instructions do a good job of explaining how to accomplish this. No external software is needed to program macros.There are a few details that are a little lacking. The boards came with alternative keycaps for alt, ctrl, and shift that were wildly different than the default keycaps - I'll definitely not be using them as they look atrocious. There's a small bit of flash from the molding process that's visible on the backs of the top row of keys - it doesn't affect performance in any way but it is a minor cosmetic defect. And again, the base of the keyboard is plastic and not metal so it feels a little lighter than I'd like. None of these things are deal-breakers, but they are things to consider if you're going to purchase this board.Other than the minor cosmetic gripes, this is a solid compact keyboard that is pretty feature rich. F-keys and media keys are accessible through the Fn key and cover nearly everything imaginable. I look forward to using this keyboard as my daily driver for my laptop.

Mostly okay. Comes with keycap remover and a few modifier keycaps.The stabilizers are cherry stabilizers, I personally prefer costar. The feeling on this keyboard is so mushy though that I think the manufacturer needs to spend more time on tuning them.The color looks lighter than what is shown in the picture, but it is okay.The caps look good, but the durability needs time to see.It is quite surprising that this unknown manufacturer can have a quite decent keyboard. Given the pleasant look and feel, this is really a good choice.

10/10 Would buy again. I'm the envy in my hip tech office. The girliest, cutest, marshmallow-unicorn-carebear-colored keyboard that ever was. It's also easy to use and functions great!

It's so pretty. I can't stop staring at it. I love the placement of the key labels as well. I've never used a 60% layout before, but looking at myself typing on this thing will make the learning fun. I got the red switches which is what I'm used to, but I agree with the other reviewer in that the keys are a bit mushy on the feel especially when its directly on the table. The keys also ping a bit. But! Using a keyboard mat pretty much solved both issues for me.One issue I have is that it's a bit odd how this keyboard isn't considered back lit and yet there are clearly LEDs under the capslock and spacebar that are functional. They only turn on temporarily when you connect the USB cord/assign program keys. Gonna have to hack around that somehow.
