Review on Womier K66 60% Mechanical Keyboard | Hot Swappable Type-C Wired RGB Backlit Gateron Switch | 60% Mechanical Keyboard for PC, PS4, Xbox | Blue Switch, White by Robert Espinoza

Not the best option if you need macros, but for general typing and gaming it's a great solution.

The stock is very comfortable and I was surprised to see that the plate mounted stabilizers were factory lubricated! Well done woman! However, there was still a slight rattle in the notches, so I removed the stock grease and reapplied my own, clipped the stabilizer legs, and glued the bar to the plate so the toggles would fit snugly. The result is very quiet stabilizers compared to standard stabilizers. The standard transparent buttons have the functions printed on the sides, which is another great touch! (Does a great job, Womyer). The keys were fairly thin, however, and if key sound is important, switching to a dual set of PBT keys helped achieve a deeper sound. Overall my complaints are pretty minor: Gat Yellows is a great option. I built this board for a friend and he wanted "gaming switches" so I installed Akko Vintage Whites for a budget build. The vintage whites went in fairly easily, but some of the switches didn't work. I'm not sure if the board was too tight in some holes or if the switches were too big, but the top layer of the board came loose from the main pinhole after installing a switch. 2) No Board There is extra space at the bottom of the folded acrylic case. That's both good and bad. I was worried I wouldn't get the right sound when typing unless I could add cushioning to the bottom (foam etc) but surprisingly it turned out pretty good! However, your mileage can be highly dependent on the derailleurs you use, so don't rely on the ability to add damping materials. 3) The missing keymapping is a bit problematic for me. I do a lot of work on my PC including editing videos, writing reports and playing games. I would love to be able to place additional layers in it. BUT for a friend who plays games on his computer and writes simple texts, it's no big deal.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Older model
