HUO JI E-Yooso Z-88 RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Metal Panel, Brown Switches, 75% Compact 81 Keys for Mac, PC, Silver and White

I tried very hard to enjoy this product, but I had to return it because of 1) the awkward Shift key placement and 2) noise from typing. Because this is a smaller, economic-sized keyboard the size of the right shift key was compromised, and while I liked that the keyboard took up less space, I kept pressing something else. The keys themselves arent clacky like blue switches, but theres a reverb feedback from hitting the keycap against the metallic board.I thought I could ignore it, but in the end I couldnt. Overall, as much as I enjoyed its prettiness (lights are really cool and the boards white so it doesnt blend in with all the other electronics on my desk), I had to return it. Recommended if youre into flashy keyboards and dont mind constant small noises.

Its a beautiful keyboard. The white keycaps really work great with the aluminum plate. The lights are bright and looks absolutely mesmerizing at night. I was very happy when I got it because of the aesthetics. However, after using it for the better part of the last couple days, I am considering returning it- and, Ill tell you why. First, it misses keystrokes when typing fast. I am a programmer and sometimes I type hundreds of line of code in a day, so that was an absolute fail for me. Second, the aluminum backplate while pretty has this ping sound because it is hollow inside. Anytime I hit a key, even touch type- it drives me absolutely nuts with the pinging sound. I thought it was because of the keys, but its the plate and unless you put foam inside the case, that cannot be solved. I guess you get what you pay for. This might work great for gaming and such, but definitely doesnt work well for prolonged uses. I am gonna use it probably till the end of week, and if I still dont like it I am gonna return it.

El producto cumplió con las espectativas, fue un regalo y quede bien con la persona. Increíble la cantidad de variaciones de iluminación led que se le puede configurar, y lo mejor que se pueden cambiar tanto las teclas como los switches.

-songs >160bpm with held notes alternating with bursts and doubles are the major problem, and when i do play them correctly it feels like im using the same amount of energy required for playing on blue or brown switches (jackhammering around 90bpm also starts to feel very difficult for me) -alternating streams arent as bad on their own i find it easy to adjust for those -not a big deal if youre someone who ALWAYS bottoms out the keys anyways, and for what its worth the actuation point is consistent -feels responsive, and well made -the numpad feels like the only tradeoff for the portability, and feels good for everyday use -rgb is limited but looks nice in a less flashy sort of way Overall its a great product, but if youre someone who consistently needs to type fast, or play videogames that have a higher apm reliance id recommend figuring out what style youre coming from and if youll need to adjust.

I was pretty pumped up to find a mechanic keyboard for this price, so I decided to give it a shot, and went ahead and bought it. For any of those interested, I went for the brown switches. Ive had it for six months at this point, and have been using it as my main keyboard for all that time. When I bought it, I knew I had to keep my expectations as low as the price tag is, so I was pleasantly surprised when I received it. My first impressions were pretty good, with my only complaint with it at the time being the keycaps. They are big enough to put a strain on my wrists when typing for long sessions, which I have to do as I am in college, and constanly typing reports or essays, as well as code. This was solved with a wrist rest, and I foolishly thought that the worst had passed. Oh, how wrong I was. I play videogames during my free time, and tend to use the WASD keys the most. Well, two months after receiving the keyboard, I noticed my W key would stop working when I was running or walking forwards in a game at random times, making me have to press it again to continue moving. At first this happened sporadically, a few times a week at most. But over the next few weeks this happened more and more, and not just during game time, but while I was typing stuff. I would try and type words with the letter W in it, and the letter would not appear until I practically smashed the key. At first it was a minor inconvenience, but quickly became a major issue that disrupted my workflow. Finally after two and a half weeks of having this problem, I thought enough is enough and went ahead and replaced the faulty switch with one of the 5 spares they send with the keyboard. As soon as I did that, the problems stopped. For around 3 weeks everything worked fine again, until it didnt. It was the A key this time. Same exact pattern. Random switch malfunctions that got more and more frequent. This time I didnt wait, after a week of having problems with the A key I went ahead and swapped the switch for a new one. Everything worked fine again. For a month, give or take. Same issue, this time the S key. Waited a few days to see if it was a fluke (spoiler alert: it wasnt), then replaced it, only for the D key to start acting up a few days later, so I also had to replace that one. It took only a week from that point for my W key to start malfunctioning again, and there went my last replacement switch. Its been roughly one and a half months since that last replacement, and in that time, the W, A, and S keys are once more malfunctioning constantly, with only the D key seemingly working fine (hope I didnt jinx it by saying that). And before you ask, I checked all of the malfunctioning switches with a multimeter right before writing this review, because I had a hunch. And guess what, I was right. The switches work just fine. I am sure the problem Ive had could be solved by just soldering the switches to the PCB, as Im certain that it comes down to the switches loosing contact with the PCB because of poor switch holders, but my question is, why is this keyboard hot swappable in the first place? This keyboard has 82 switches, and a decent enough switch pack, like a 90 switch gateron red pack will set you back $25, which is more than half the price of the keyboard. Meanwhile, if you go for a 90 switch pack of CherryMX reds, thats $50, 10 more than the keyboard itself. For those prices you may as well buy a fully assembled 70 or 90 dollar keyboard, and probably get more out of it. What Im trying to say here is that theres no point in upgrading the switches in this keyboard, and so the hot swap feature is completely useless, and makes this keyboard a joke. In summary, if you dont mind soldering the switches to the PCB right after pulling the keyboard out of the box, then go for it, but otherwise dont bother.

I purchased this keyboard about four months ago, as I was looking for a keyboard with a 75% layout and brown switches. In that time, three keys have had faulty presses and had to be replaced; luckily the keyboard comes with a switch remover and five spare switches to replace them with. Its good that they can be replaced, but Im worried more might break in the future. The switches are Outemu switches, by the way. About the backlighting - I dont use the backlighting much, but it has many colors and effects to choose from, and its definitely bright enough to make out. Pros: Solid/sturdy and thick detachable cable(but not braided) Trenches on the bottom to route the cable to the sides or directly ahead Compact 75% layout 5 extra switches and switch remover Cheap Cons: Questionable switch quality (three failures in four months) Ugly gamer font Some flex when pressing down hard in the middle No bumpers along edges to protect keys when stowed in bag

Pretty decent budget keyboard. Been using many keyboards like the ducky 2, pok3r, and even opto mechanical keyboards from bloody and razer. Decided to try out this budget keyboard. The otemu switches are basically cheap versions of cherry mxs and i can notice the difference. Once the switches are broken in, they have a deeper sounding click. And these switches makes a ping noise when you bottom it out and again when you release it. Cant also use o rings on this keyboard. Feel is a little bit close to real mx blues imo. Typing is really hard for me if i dont use a handrest but thats really it about typing, types great. Right shift key has a weird size (1.15u i believe) which confuses me sometimes when i type. Gaming on these are not so great. Using blues on CSGO is really hard to get used to and its hard to do jumps and technical parts in osu!. The switches are hot swappable but its a chore to remove the switches but once you get it off its ez to put it on and off. Had to file the pins to fit cherry mx switches i HIGHLY recommend not to force mx switches in. It broke 2 pins on 2 switches. Electronic stuffs are okay too. Grey detachable micro usb cable looks kinda bland but gets the job done. RGB is awesome on this keyboard bright and sharp colors. Can also kinda hear the high pitch noise the rgb makes and its mildly infuriating. Little to no flex on the keyboard and the switches are plate mounted. Tbh this is a decent keyboard for people who wants to try out a mech keyboard for the first time or to people who wants a loud clicky keyboard to type with.

I love this keyboard for the most part, easy to use, great size, clack is nice, RBG works, and the modes for the lights are great; however, when using this keyboard Ive found the board dropping key strokes. I know I active the key, but sometimes its just a dead press.

This is my first mechanical keyboard, and I love the clackyness of it. I dont know the different types of switches or anything, so theres my knowledge on mechanical. I was looking at this keyboard because Im a girl with small hands, and I play games casually and I know theres hype around mechanical keyboards, so I went searching for something small and clacky.. only after I spilt tea all over my CM Devastor keyboard, which is another reason I looked at this keyboard, its waterproof! At first, the clacky noise is loud, only cause Ive never had a keyboard like this, and it was annoying to my roommates but they can deal. My small hands fit soooo nicely on this keyboard, and can actually reach all the keys, and I make so little mistakes as compared to the full size keyboard I had, so everything I couldve asked for is answered with this keyboard. Oh and I figured out pressing FN + PG DN cycles the different light modes, which I didnt see in the instructions? Maybe I looked over it but oh well. My favorite is the solid light mode, with the purple/lavender color ~ All that being said, Ive had the keyboard for about a month now, and I have no complaints so far!

I was very pleased with everything about this keyboard; the size, the lights, etc. However, within not even a use of half of year (decent amount of gaming, a lot of MOBA gameplay) the Q key has unfortunately started to become unresponsive. It will only Q if i hit the key harder than usual, which can be frustrating at times. Overall, you get what you pay for.
