I finally understand that rubber domes are endgame.
Now you need to try an authentic HHKB, Leopold, or Realforce. In my experience, nothing beats the classics :)

New HHKB Type S Classic
Ricoh era centred legends keycaps are not great. No where near as pleasant as the offset to the top left. Oh well. Interesting if you look at the press release, they are changing around the product lineup, introducing these 6 new SKUs but retiring 9 other SKUs: Looks like they are retiring: HHKB Cla

5 year old HHKB
A classic beauty. I had a home break-in 7 years ago and the only notable item stolen was my HHKB modified with Cherry MX stems and the GMK Persona keycap set 😞

Enso E - HHKB Split Ergo by Clever, merry christmas
Considering the price of actual PFU HHKB keyboards, this seems like a great price point. FYI, in case you're not taking it into account, the kit pricing does not include switches. If you're using the Dynapak, it would be another $142. The final cost would be $520 + $142 + whatever keycaps you want t

LF Opinions of HHKB Pro Classic

(120 USD) I am currently a student and I just have enough to afford the one i saw and I was wondering if it is rlly worth the money? Fr

Did anyone else notice that newer HHKB models are rated for only 30 million keystrokes?
That weird because as I know PFU Japan do not include that info at all. Below is the page for the Classic Type-S https://www.pfudirect.jp/view/item/000000001577?category_page_id=hhkb But Realforce do include that info like this https://www.realforce.co.jp/products/R4HB21/ Notice the: “スイッチ寿命 1億回以上”= s

HHKB Upgrade Dilemma
Honestly. NO amount of upgrades, nothing, beats the feeling of typing at the speed of your thoughts on a blank keycapped HHKB. I ran the full keybr.com torture course on Colemak-DH until I hated it, and then honed in on monkeytype.com. But then again, I was absolutely convinced and commited to true,

honestly, i'm glad the "foamed-out thock" trend is finally dying.
Cipulot (and now Metapulse) setups aren't complicated at all, if anything, they're peak customisability haha! Naevies switches are a little soft compared to actual HHKB (I've got both) Metapulse EM60/Cipulot EC-60X PCBs accomodate any 60% layout, you just have to find the right plate. If you board i

It is scary how little I'm using my other boards ever since getting the HHKB. It's simply too fun to type on, and I love how it sounds especially after lubing. I didn't use sile

Should I get a second Hybrid Type-S (Snow)?
Does the Snow version yellow over time with sun exposure? My desk gets decent light so that’s a real concern. Starting with the Pro 3 (Classic / Hybrid), they transitioned to AES plastics for their White and Snow. AES plastics are a lot more resistent to UV-caused yellowing than the original ABS cas
