The seller on ebay included the Keychron switches so I swapped them out and I like the sound a little better, at least at first impression. We'll see if that lasts. The keycaps may be more for aesthetic than sound, tbh, but I'll keep that in mind!

These are just the default keycaps that came with the board, even from keychron directly. I got it on eBay tho, so the previous owner might've swapped them out, but I doubt it.

I don't have much point of reference for comparison, but they seem... alright? The spacebar and other modifiers sound very different than the rest (but I need to double check, maybe they've got different switches). I'll have a better idea of my thoughts on these keycaps if I can get another set to compare them to.

And boy am I glad I did it. I wasn't expecting the weight it's got - feels more premium than any other keyboard I've used!

Right now it's got Gateron browns, but I've also got some extra Keychron K Pro browns and Gateron G Pro browns (included with the board since I got it on eBay).

I'm gonna give it a shot with these three sets of switches, but I think my next step will be foam and/or tape modding, and finding a new set of keycaps. If I get lucky I'll find the iqunix hitchhiker set for a little cheaper on eBay, or I might custom design a Buzz Lightyear themed set like I saw hipyotech do on YouTube.

I'd love to hear y'all's recs for mods, macros, or anything else!
