Womier - SK75

I just got this keyboard for Christmas. It's my first mechanical and customizable keyboard. Previously ever owned simple $10 keyboards. So this thing is night and day. My only current complaint is that there isnt any way to adjust response or sensitivity like halo effect boards that I'm aware of. Again new to the game here but I would like to be able to press the key half way or less and get the same response in game. Maybe I can mod it???? Anywho this board is amazing otherwise. Very impressed 

Not OP but have an SK75. I have traveled with it for a few days now but only until my lofree lite gets delivered. This thing is a solid 2kg, feels very sturdy but therefore it's not an ideal kb to move around with imo.

Just returning here to thank you again for the advice. Womier SK75 + Akko penguin is perfect combo for me. Cheers!

Haven't seen many reviews for this thing so i thought I'd weigh in. I am absolutely blown away by the quality of this board. Now granted I have not tried the Rainy75 or ND75, and my previous budget boards that I'm comparing this to are the Akko 5075b, Feker IK75, and Monsgeek M2, but this is the best feeling and sounding keyboard I've used. I heard some people saying the finish on the SK75 aluminum case felt lower quality, but I totally disagree. It gives it a ton of character, it's slightly sparkly in the right light, and the texture is easy to grip. The back weight is beautiful (despite the horrible lighting in my garage). It's a heavy board and yet it takes up less horizontal space than the typical exploded 75% trend from last year. It feels very substantial and well designed. The board has a flex cut PCB and flex cut PC plate. This is my first time with flex cuts - I found that when I removed the case foam it was way too flexy and borderline unstable. However, with the case foam the flex is just right for me. The Womier website sells an FR4 non-flex cut plate that I'm tempted to try so I can run the board without case foam. The sound - again, I haven't tried the Rainy or ND75, but damn. This thing gives me the tingles. It's like my own personal ASMR video. The full POM mint blizzard switches are very smooth, slightly clacky, and very creamy sounding with all the foams. The built in light diffuser is actually really cool and enhances the RGB quite a bit in my opinion. There is the slightest amount of leaf crunch in these switches, so maybe a potential upgrade to be made in the future, but for now I'm loving them. The stabilizers. Holy shit the stabilizers. I have never used a mechanical keyboard with perfectly tuned stabilizers before now. The crazy thing is - there does not seem to be any grease on the wires. They're just...really well fitting? And they're plate mounted and yet still this good?? I have TX AP plate mounted stabs on my Monsgeek M2, and these stock SK75 plate mounted stabs are better. VIA support was huge for me, it works great. Another small thing I love is that whenever you hold the function key, all of the mapped layer keys will light up white. And not just the default mappings - any mappings you add in VIA to that layer will light up when you hold Fn. Some cons: this board is pretty annoying to mod. The hidden screw design means you need to remove 6+ keycaps to open it. Then once you get the case off, the little gasket nubs will just fly off the plate for no reason. Whenever I moved the PCB to get to the JST connector or add or remove foams, I would jettison at least 2 or 3 nubs and have to crawl on the floor looking for them. You also need to remove the JST connector every time you want to change the case foam, although if you want you could just cut that part with scissors. There's also not a spot on the board to hold the USB dongle, but I have been using wired and Bluetooth mainly. That's my long ramble. Sorry for the horrible lighting in photos - I'm planning to post new photos once I get my ghost judges keycaps in the mail. I'm just blown away by how far the budget keyboard market has come in the year or so I've been in the hobby...I got into it for the modding but there's no way I could mod this to be better.

Honestly, as someone who's looking for one around that price point, I've entered the world of mechanical keyboards, and having learnt a lot, I would strongly advise against getting anything from any of the brands who call themselves gamer focused, this includes anything from logitech, steelseries, etc. Reddragon used to make decent keyboards, but since the past few months this space of mechanical keyboards especially under 100 usd has kind of exploded to a point whereby keyboards that used to cost around 250 or 300 usd, are now selling for less than 100 usd. Some of the ones I'd suggest you checking out would be the Womier SK75, UPCOMING Womier RD75 (a youtuber named merkeebs made a review on this recently, it's on pre order currently, so it's much cheaper cuz of their kick-start campaign), Bridge75, Yunzii AL75, Aula F75 (this one sells for around 60 to 70 usd. Solid board, but made of plastic compared to the other ones made of aluminium and has less bells and whistles compared to other ones, something like a back plate or some accent pieces). A lot of these boards will look similar cuz they're made in the same factory with some minor adjustments in terms of their pcb or switches. If you want to get your board from a more established brand, keychron has been making some good boards, but honestly, I'd pick the other boards over them as the company does charge a slight premium for that recognition. Nuphy is also a pretty established company and I personally have been eyeing on their Halo75 V2 keyboard (costs around 450 to 500). Then there are some other brands like akko and monsgeek, (suggest you checking out the m1w v3) who also make pretty decent boards. (both are sisters companies, so there boards are pretty similar as well) I've mostly looked at 75 percent keyboards, so that explains why I'm suggesting so many of them. Some models also have larger layouts. Btw, wired or wireless? Doesn't make a difference, good software on the boards pcb makes a huge difference. Some boards can have better wireless delay compared to some that run wired. For gaming I'd suggest looking for ones that are sub 10 ms. There's a youtuber called thoccnology, perhaps the only one out there that does input latency tests, so I'd suggest checking their reviews for latency comparisons. I'll give you a quick switch understanding breakdown. Essentially the switch or key you press can have 3 different types of feel - linear, tactile or clicky. Linear switches are usually the ones that are recommended for gaming cuz they have a quick and smooth bottomout meaning you press a switch and there's no bounce or feedback when you bottom out, allowing you to apply less force to actuate each switch. Tactile and clicky switches have a small bump at the end, providing a haptic feedback, making them a decent choice for typing. Having used linear switches, those are my go to choice as they can be used both for gaming and provide a decent typing experience as well, but at the end of the day, the switch you choose is just a preference. There are also hall effect switches (HE for short) they're magnetic switches that are much better for gaming as you can adjust the actuation point via software, but since this is a pretty new space, apart from one company (wooting) there aren't a lot of companies that make good boards, definitely not in the sub - 100 usd price point (they all use the same boards) There's a lot more stuff to get into here, we've barely covered the bases here, like the sound you prefer a deeper sound (thocky) or more louder and sharper sound (clacky) or a creamy sound (hard to explain this one tbh), also foam makes a huge difference in how a keyboard sounds, more foam equals deeper sound. Less foam equals more louder and sharper sound. There's also VIA/QML compatibility, basically custom firmware you can run on these boards to optimise performance or extend battery life, or map some keys to do certain actions, like open apps (setting macros basically). I'd suggest you watch some guides online that can explain this in much more detail. I know this has been a pretty long write up, but lemme know if there's anything else I can help you with.

75%, it has everything I need and doesn't have what I don't need 😂 I am rocking a Womier SK75, and absolutely love it

womier sk75 > aluminium > via support > sounds good stock > very nice design > 110$

100% - you should try the Womier SK75 next! Beautiful board out of the box. Omg I’m in love with mine. Watch some videos. I hope the sounds give you full body chills
