the cable's an akko one that I bought separately but it does come with... the same cable on the box. the tylex box is a sound bar style Bluetooth speaker. i just bought it online from our local version of Amazon (Lazada).

I also got the speed pinks. Not usually a fan of clickies but they’re not as bad as I thought. Might mod them.

I'm a huge fan of LHS numpads and this keyboard seems to be the only one that is readily available, although I wish the numpad was mirrored!
What do you think of the board?

Oil kings vs. KS-3 blacks:
- Have the top housing cutout to eliminate (supposedly) north-facing interference
- have a flipped Gateron logo compared to the KS-3’s
- have a black spring as another commenter mentioned
- I believe also a slightly different bottom housing, I don’t think it’s the shape, it’s the mold marks (but you shouldn’t have to check that anyway as the first 2 are easier)
This is like the 3rd post I’ve seen (and maybe this was first idk) mistaking KS-3 blacks for Oil Kings. I’m not complaining, good to spread knowledge, but come on I feel like you should at least check for the top housing cutout, it’s a defining feature of the newer Gat molds like the Oil Kings and CJ’s

I’ve been doing this as well with my Keychron V3 for work. It’s still a little odd but it works well.

southpaw without non-flipped numpad is pretty awkward. keychron should do some research on layouts before replicating every single one of them.

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking the same. I probably will pull the trigger shortly. Can't wait to receive the keyboard.

Thanks you so much for the fast answer, I think I'll go for the outemu but I wonder if the colour of the switch make it ugly on the keyboard overall,
Planned to get myself an alpha 87 barebone with domikey-knight keycap set (mostly white - blue colours)
Don't know If I could go for a cheaper alternative for a keyboard tho

I had many people complain in the office when I had normal linears (they were very loud) and that's why I switched to silent switches. No one complains anymore.
If what you want is minimal sound, then definitely go for the Outemu. The feel on the Gazzew is better, but they are also heavier which makes typing for me a bit more tiring. The Outemu are lighter and also cheaper.

Just to reiterate the point made by others, the best switch is the one you enjoy using.
