Topre Realforce R3 Bluetooth Dye Sub PBT Mechanical Keyboard

I bought it for my boyfriend. Because he was saving his money to buy this model. So I bought it secretly and gave it to him as a surprise. He loves it! He told me that it's like Chanel bag to him. lol, So I'm planning to buy for me for the next time! :)

Best out of the box Keyboard experience I've had, as a mechanical absolutist, I will sell my whole custom build collection and buy Topre from now on

I upgraded to the 45g version of this keyboard from a Topre Type Heaven, and WOW! What a difference. I thought it would feel pretty similar, maybe just sound a little different with the PBT keycaps (vs ABS on the Type Heaven), but the typing experience is completely different. The actuation of the keys somehow feels softer and snappier at the same time. The sound and feel is a lot more like typing on my Niz Plum Micro84, just with higher quality. It's a lot heavier than my Type Heaven, which I didn't expect, and everything about the build seems quality to me. The black characters on black keycaps can be tough to see in some lighting conditions, but anyone buying this keyboard is likely to be a touch typist already and probably won't need to look at the keys. Supposedly this keyboard can be customized with some Topre software, but I haven't tried that yet. There are 4 LEDs at the top right of the case to show bluetooth and num/caps/scroll lock status - they are green for the normal functions, and blue for bluetooth. Not sure if the color can be customized in the software. I would also mention that the keyboard didn't come with AA batteries like it said, so something to keep in mind if you want to use it wireless. Overall, I love this keyboard. It makes me want to type more because of how good it feels. It has the smoothness of typing on my Niz Plum, but the snappiness of typing on my Type Heaven. I'm not a mechanical keyboard connoisseur, so all I can say is that this is the best Topre board I've used.
