A few days ago, 15+ days ago. I’m buy mechanical keyboard from online shop. Because spirit to have a new backlight keyboard and wanna taste how does feel when pressing keycap then *click! *clack! You know.. blue switch hehe.

Captured by me. Source from my blog.

I have many choice before. Therefore I need to find where’s the best can trusted. Because it was my first time purchase/using online shop platform to buy goods. However, there’s no shop that are sell mechanical keyboard with well condition. I mean, I can’t trust them about their product are in new condition (usually an old model/version).

To avoid that thing, I decided to try bought in online shop. After considering many times, then “Yeah, maybe I should try too. Why not?”

(I wrote my first experience using mechanical keyboard in blog before. Here)

The feels, ofc pretty loud. Because mine using outemu blue switch, and can’t be replaced. So, I hope this keyboard can be long lasting durability.

Experience using this backlight keyboard is, temptation to flex. Because you know commonly mechanical keyboard are capable owned by their flexing backlight. Pretty cool and I admit it, one of the reason I buy this one are.. yep the backlight.

And of course, the clicking sound. Pretty loud (again). But that makes more typing experience more intense. Dunno why, I just feel like satisfied when pressing keycap at writing something. Then hear their click-clack every I press one of keycaps.

But these loud may disturbing sleep time experience at night. I’m literally forget and don’t know how to say to my parents. About loudly my keyboard sound.

This keyboard worth up to 300k in IDR. So I need to improve my writing skill after spend up that much tho. It motivate me to more writing ‘n typing. I just can’t let it go about their backlight slashing animation tbh.

At first time using mechanical keyboard, my typing speed are reduced to 70+ word per second/wps. But now, I can be able to reach 80+ wps when I have quiet energy and believe to pressing every keycap when typing.

Wait, why need energy ‘n believe?

I’m using keyboard stock/built in laptop.. almost 9 years. I was so confident when typing, without doubt. Because laptop keyboard are very soft and you don’t need pressing to hard for typing. Just give a simple press energy and no sound.. coz it made by rubber.

Then when I migrate to mechanical keyboard (despite I’m using this when I’m using my laptop in home), I need to adaption progress about typing habit. Simply, I finally reach 80 wps after 1/2 month experience. So what’s gonna be?
