Like butter...
The action of the keys, the heft of the whole unit, and the thoughtful industrial design make me eager to get to typing for work every morning. The shape, sound, and layout are absolutely perfect. Amazing job.I'm not a gamer - this is a for writing code. It's not too obnoxious in terms of the key sounds, so I'm not waking up my family when I go late into the night, or start early in the morning.

Solid build, easy software, satisfying knob, high quality keycaps. Disappointing font colors.
Coming from a $250 iquinix FN96, this competes very well for half the price. The build is incredibly solid. It's really heavy and feels dense. All the dampening features are doing their job and keeping the board very solid. In contrast, I was using the Drop SHIFT which I had to return after comparing to this keyboard because the low profile aluminum design was painfully hollow and pingy. The only quality concern is my whole board is shifted just barelyyyy to the left. It's not noticeable in the keys but I can tell the knob is off center because it's snug on one side of the cutout with a gap on the other side, and if I turn it a certain way I can hear it scrape.The tactile switches it came with were pretty nice and felt solid but were a bit on the squishy side. I swapped them out for kailh box jades and pinks for ultimate clicky-ness. The included switches were incredibly easy to remove though, unlike the kailh boxes. The included keycaps are amazing quality. The rounded edges do feel softer and nicer as intended, but I'm not sure I'm necessarily a fan of it. There's something about regular sharp edges that give the setup a cleaner look and feel. My biggest gripe with them is the font color. In all their product photos, the color temperature is cool with cool grays and bright whites. In reality, you need to rely on customer photos to show how warm the colors are. The whites are a bit off white, the gray in the fonts are beige gray. They were probably going for a vintage look but it I wish it was cool gray for the clean modern vibe.The software was easy to install and use. I haven't done much customization but it's a very clean UI that works as intended. I haven't installed the Dukharo software for my gf's VN96 (which is the exact same keyboard, different brand and software) which I've heard is disgustingly awful. I'm glad I got the better variant.Overall this is a great purchase. I gave it 4 stars mainly for the knob and the misleading photos of the disappointing beige gray font. Otherwise, it feels great, looks great, and has super bright RGB backlight, although that may be partially credited to the crystal casings of my switches (they were half as bright with the included switches).

Great 96%
Great 96% keyboard to get into the hobby of building a mechanical keyboard. The keyboard stock sounds nice but once to lube the switches and re-lube the stabs they sound amazing. The silicone dampening makes a huge difference in sound with it or without.

Very loud spacebar.
I think it came with missing parts under the spacebar when compared to the other keys with stabilizers. Also the spacebar was super loud as a result. Returning immediately - sad because the keycaps are pretty dope and everything else seems great and works great. Company needs better QC I guess.

Great keyboard, great price, missing home key
I absolutely love this keyboard. I'm not new to mech keys, but starting to explore customizing keyboards. The look, heft, build quality and feel are superb. I bought this for home and work, so went with 10 key. I bought wireless version so I wouldn't have to plug and unplug constantly. I got the bugderider switches.PROS feels, looks, and sounds fantastic. Easy to use. It's wireless and hotswappable. Pairing between 2 PCs is easy. I love typing on it.CONS missing the HOME key. I wish pg up and pg down where home and end. I'll have to edit registry or download software to make that change. I really wish wireless version came with via compatibility like the wired version. The keyboard dies fall asleep, so it will take a few seconds after hitting a key to wake up and re-pair.

This is a very nice keyboard.
I got the TH96 with Budgerigar switches and the enlightenment caps. The sound and feel is *immaculate* -- really, it is just such a snappy switch and combined with whatever else makes up this keyboard sounds tremendous!1. ordered the theory keycaps separately because the font looked better, but hated them. theres something about the rounded textured feel of the enlightenment caps that makes this keyboard feel amazing. i also prefer the color scheme.2. volume knob stuck at places, but pushing the whole knob up with medium force resolved this permanently.3. the space bar got stuck a lot out of the box. I think if you put it in upside down (which is how it came?) it tends to stick a lot, also the switch seemed to be a bit broken as well (put in other keys it didn't always return up), it was the only such one. They included extras so no harm.the software, as far as i can tell, works great.I also have a Keychron k8 pro, which i put Durock T1s in initially. Those switches were my favorite until I found these. So I ordered the switches separately, and put them into the K8 too. The switches feel great, but there's something about this board and keycaps that sounds "thockier" and feels more pleasurable.These and the T1's are hands down my favorite switches.Btw my WPM typing on both switches: 120 on these budgerigars and 105 on T1sAlso, throughout the purchase the support was responsive and very willing to help. I hope that continues

Love the rgb effects, keycaps come off pretty easy tho
When i first unboxed it, seemed pretty standard, some extra switches/keycaps, keycap and switch puller, and a usb c cable. I played around with the rgb affects for a while, and was really impressed with the lighting. Bluetooth is pretty easy to do, and i love the keycaps. But the downsides are, the keycaps come off pretty easily with not much for, didn’t need the puller at all, build quality feels pretty cheap, but its only a 150$ keyboard. 8/10

Disappointed
Build quality could be better for the amount of money. Battery is fine, around 80 hours with LEDs turned ON.Edit: After a couple of months, a fully charged battery won't hold charge even for a week (with LEDs OFF). Was so promising in the beginning, and now it's slowly turning into a wired keyboard. Be aware.

Keyboard died; Epomaker washed their hands of it.
I bought the keyboard 53 weeks ago and it worked fine for 52. It was a nice keyboard, the keys were awesome, felt solid; just worked really well.It died 5 days after the end of warranty and on reaching out to Epomaker they basically told me I was on my own. This is the first keyboard I have had die on me in ~30 years of buyig keyboards; I won't be buying another Epomaker again. Which is a shame; when it worked, the product is awesome.

Bellissima tastiera forse la migliore che abbia provato da tempo
Per me gli attuatori meccanici tattili che monta sono una figata pazzesca ma ovviamente dipende dalle preferenze di ognuno!

Ottimo feeling
Tastiera dall'ottimo feeling sia sonoro che tattile. I tasti "tactile" della epomaker hanno un feeling eccezionale e una buona profondità. Il livello di pressione necessario non è ne troppo ne troppo poco, e ogni click è una goduria.Da programmatore che scrive tutto il giorno, trovo questa tastiera eccezionale.Unica nota criticabile è il colore dei keycaps, che a gusto mio sono un po' troppo.. grigi? Ma si possono cambiare. Ottima scelta produrla con il profilo "SA". Rispetto a un profilo piatto, riesco molto più facilmente a trovare i tasti senza guardare
