Ғылым және технология
The Jelly Epoch is a legendary keyboard that is still pulling a lot of demand on the aftermarket. Owlabs is set to release its predecessor, the Jelly Evolv. This keyboard has a few additional innovations up its sleeve and maintains what made the original keyboard so popular. Let me know what you guys think of the new Jelly Evolv. Will you get one?

YOOO thanks Chris!
Would love to see the Duality review next. Especially with the GB ending soon™
I just love how u recognize the Jelly for pioneering the ultra-foamy genre of sounds and allow it to stay that way instead of only looking at it from the perspective of the big anti-foam wave going on now. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a stellar thing to have boards sound good without foam and I’d personally take a good sounding foamless build any day of the week, but sometimes we might rly have to be more open to diff ideas. Love this one bro❤

Ayyyeeee I appreciate that man. Yeah I think there is a lot of anti foam content, and I'm sometimes guilty of that myself. But I've learned there is room for all. ❤️

i still dont understand why the foam sound get so much hate rofl i tend to believe part of the reason is because its something that could be achievecd by anything and anyone, but to me the jelly foamy sound will always hold a special place as long as keyboard goes. ppl just hating for no reason i swear lol

This board looks awesome! I’m having trouble with my space bar stabs on one of my keyboards. The stems are too thin/small to stay in the spacebar so it keep sliding out. Anyways what are your favorite stabilizers? There’s a ton of options nowadays so I’m hoping to go off your recommendation!
That is a great sounding keyboard!

Great review! I am debating on getting the Jelly Evolv or the Mammoth75, but I am having trouble deciding. How do they compare in terms of typing feel, overall build, and flexiness?
Very nice even sounds different. Was surprised that even no foam sounded good. Pom plate is my favorite, can you try pom maybe without foam also? Well you may need a solder pcb for that due to the flexibility and them not wanting to stay/pop out. My bad

I really wanted this so I could put KAM Sewing Tin on it, but I haven't decided if it's worth pulling the trigger on the raffle yet. It's a beautiful keyboard, but I already have a Sonnet and a Tomo, and they both have that right blocker design. It's a gorgeous board for sure, but maybe not worth it in the sound department.
Sounds soooo nice. I’ll buy this one!!

Thanks homie! Tough call! I like the design language and ease of build on the Evolv. Still tough tho. V1 my baby!
Thanks for the review and commentary on the board!! I gotta say, I think I much prefer the v1 design, the lip/chamfer around the top case in the evolv just doesn’t do it for me, and the foamless sound just seems underwhelming for a board at this price point. No doubt if you’re about the foam life and enjoy the design, certainly seems like a quality board.

@@ClackbaitI'm doing well, thanks man! Definitely am a huge fan of these more easy to open boards (thinking of the TKD cycle right now as well), it's a huge gift to those that want to modify their boards!
What are the negatives? How is the hollowness in different parts of the keyboard?
By having to put the top case in like that did it cause it to rub on the bottom? I wonder how many people are going to scuf their boards putting it in
@Clackbait
11 ай бұрын
Nope no problems at all my homie! ❤️
I still don't prefer the blocker on the right side instead of the 4 key nav cluster (both the Tomo and Sonnet use that layout)... it doesn't look balanced for me. Sounds like the non-flex PCB is the way to go on this board. It's a beautiful board nonetheless and feels definitely like a step up from midrange boards like the QK75, Zoom75, and JRIS75. Any difference between the V2 and V3 stabs?
@Clackbait
11 ай бұрын
Yeah it's def better quality and sound then the QK boards. I haven't tried the V2 stabs to compare homie

Sry i’m new in the game whats the diff between FLX & NFX? Which one would u recommend?
@Clackbait
11 ай бұрын
Flex cut PCBs have cuts to make the typing experience have more flex. It does come at the cost of sound loss, only if you plan on not using the included foams. So it depends on how you want to setup your board. I prefer the non flex since the keyboard mounting system has plenty of flex as it is. Hope that helps.
Owlabs sure know how to make a sexy keyboard.

Why people wants Hiragana characters on their ANSI keyboard is beyond me. Here, in Japan, keyboard use the JIS standard. not ANSI. We dont care having these characters and we dont use them since the implementation of IME...Only the very old folks and word-processor fanatics want them. Is that a trendy weeb thing to have characters you cannot even 'read nor use on your keyboard ? LOL
