For today’s mechanical keyboard review, I am checking out one of the artsiest mechanical keyboard when it comes to keycap design.
Today’s review is for the HITIME x XVX M67 Topographic Wired Gaming Keyboard with IMD Tech Keycaps.
First and foremost, I am familiar with HITIME and XVX. With XVX, I am familiar with their Great Wave Off Kanagawa keycaps and HITTIME featuring more design-based keyboards utilizing XVX keycaps.
It has been several years, but I have to say that I do enjoy any creativity that comes to overall keyboard design. But this time, I think the company really hit it big with their IMD Tech Keycaps.
Featured in numerous colors such as black or white, what sets this mechanical keyboard apart is that it has this interesting pattern on the keycaps. And the RGB lights shine bright through them. In fact, there are 2 LED lights under each stabilizer and five LED lights on the space bar.
There is lettering on the front side of the keycaps but truth be told, this mechanical keyboard is for those who have memorized the QWERTY keyboard and can type without looking at their fingers.
Now, it’s one thing to be a creatively artistic mechanical keyboard, but you have to feature the standards and that it’s hotsweappable and gasket mounted. The other is tri-mode, but this is not a tri-mode keyboard, it’s a wired keyboard.
The keyboard also features PCB single key slotting for optimizing stability and making the touches more softer. As for gasket mounted, this mechanical keyboard features four layers of filling silencer. But have no fear, for those loving that thocky sound will like the thock this mechanical keyboard gives.
The keyboard features 17 built-in backlight modes, monochrome and full color modes that are easy to change via the FN plus arrow keys.
It’s important to note that the keyboard does feature a keycap puller, USB Type-C cable, brush and three extra switches.
Last but not least, this keyboard is 65% and features a unique curved body, has a tilt angle of 7 degrees and for the most part, this mechanical keyboard feels good to type on.
Again, this is a mechanical keyboard for those who memorized the QWERTY keys, because if you are a person who single strikes and has to look at the letters, this mechanical keyboard is not for you. It’s for those who can type and not look while typing.
If you like mechanical keyboard with an artsy touch, then definitely give the HITIME x XVX M67 Topographic Wired Gaming Keyboard with IMD Tech Keycaps a try!
