Category: Keycaps
My first set of dye-sub PBT keycaps, and the texture is that perfect fine grit that feels more solid than the cheap ABS sets I've used before. The grey and blue tones are slightly muted in person, exactly what I wanted for a clean desk look.
The color scheme is exactly what I wanted for my work board, and the dual-shot PBT feels nicely textured under my fingers. I appreciate that it fits both my Q1 and K2 without any compatibility issues.
The dye-sub legends are crisp and clean, even under bright lighting. The grey, white, and blue color scheme gives my board a clean retro look without being too flashy. I’ve been typing all week and the PBT texture still feels great.
Finally got these on my Q1 and the PBT texture is just right — not too rough but still gives that satisfying clack. The grey tones are much richer in person than what I expected from the photos, and the blue lettering stays crisp even after a week of heavy typing.
The blue legends pop perfectly against the grey, and the PBT texture feels noticeably more substantial than my old ABS set. Took about 15 minutes to swap everything out on my board, and the fit is snug with no wobble at all.
Installed these on my Q1 and the dye-sub legends are crisp and deep, no fading at all. The PBT texture feels slightly grippy and pleasant under my fingers, much better than the stock ABS. Only took about 20 minutes to swap everything out.
I was worried the blue keys might clash with my setup, but the dye-sub colors are subtle and look fantastic even in low light. The thick PBT feels solid and noticeably reduces the hollow sound compared to my old set.
Installed these on my Q1 and the thick PBT feels way better than the stock ABS—the textured finish helps with grip during long typing sessions. The grey, white, and blue colorway pops nicely without being flashy.
The colors are exactly as shown in the photos—a perfect muted blue-gray that brightens up my desk. The texture has that classic PBT grit that feels far better than the shiny ABS caps I used before. Absolutely worth the switch for the sound and feel alone.
I was worried these might feel cheap, but the PBT texture is really nice and crisp to type on. The blue legends are a perfect contrast against the grey, and they look great on my new board.
