Retro Mechanical keyboard with red switches ? TW1867 review

Retro Mechanical keyboard with red switches ? TW1867 review
Wazzup everyone and welcome back to the channel. After my recent sensor panel review I got from mechdyi, today I'm gonna review another product from the mechdy website. As you have seen from the intro we are talking about a compact wireless mechanical keyboard but not an ordinary one, thanks to this retro Typewriter look .
The product is available in 3 colors, the black and wood that I will be reviewing today and we also have a pink and a white version. I chose the outemu red switches which is the one most popular among gamers but blue, brown and golden switch options are available too on the website. Also this is the white backlight version but there is an RGB version too.
But now follow me in this review!

    Since the whole thing is angled up, I feel like the keys should also be angled so that they're flatter. Would make typing on them easier, in my opinion.

    By chance, does the return key make a "ding" sound? It would be really cool if they somehow made that sound to give the feeling of the old manual typewriters.

    ​@@fgtechtips Do you know what company makes this model? If it is all metal (keys, base etc.), why are there plastic knock-offs out there (e.g., 7Keys) that use the same product number, as if theirs were made by the same manufacturer? At least the knock-off Querkywriter is (was?) called the "Quertywriter" so that those savvy enough to recognize the difference in spelling could know it wasn't the same product. With this one you have to have the knock-off in-hand to realize that most of it is plastic. I don't expect you to speak for the manufacturers but this is a kind of bait-and-switch that nobody seems to recognize or acknowledge. Thanks for the purchasing link!
