Little update here, Work Louder replied to the accompanying instagram post of this video. The issues I had with the keycap were known and are supposed to be fixed as they were only present in the first round of production and got corrected afterwards. They are also aware of the other issues mentioned and are working on solutions.

I hope they send out a revised unit because as it stands there's no way we can verify if any of these issues are addressed

when I first saw this board on Instagram, I thought it was one of many concepts that I see on there and nothing more. Today I learned this is actually a real board and looks just as cool IRL as it did in the renders.

I just amazed how good your videos are. Everything in the right place: sound, montage, design, jokes and storytelling overall. Thank you very much for this pleasure. I really disappointed about subscribers number, but hope it doesn’t bother you at all. Cheers!

Thank you so much ☺️ the sub count doesn’t bother me, I’m surprised how much it is actually 😅

thank you so much for featuring this board! i've never seen it talked about by other channels before. great work as usual sir

This was an amazing review, I hope Work Louder continues to produce more boards and further polish the product. Hopefully lowering the cost if they sell enough units and providing more options to purchasers.

Your videos are an inspiration! Good work. Want to learn how to make my own now

I'm a hobbyist keyboard layout designer and I think that there aren't enough modules to justify the slight benefits over just getting some other keyboard with your preferred layout. The price is actually somewhat reasonable compared to similar keyboards but sucks that the switches are soldered in and can't be modified for better type feel. I would recommend getting something like a gergoplex or a corne instead and adding a macropad. For a budget of about 400 you can probably also make them wireless and have someone else build them for you. The ergonomic and customizability gains are huge and even bigger with optional features like tenting and wirelessness with nice!nano but it does take some work to figure out what you want.

I really enjoy the production of your videos (and the humor) I have been looking all over a keyboard solution such as this.

Thanks for this review, it was really good! This keyboard is really tempting to me, but I think I will wait for a V2 since I'm used to the Preonic and prefer to have a 5th row for numbers. It feels a little bit ironic that they made a modular keyboard, but I can't add a number row to it. It's still early times for them, so I hope that will come soon.

You need way more views, everything in this video was top notch.

This is such an excellent review. I was eyeing the creator micro, but no automatic profile switching and sluggish controls are a deal breaker for me I think...

It sure looks amazing but I’d love a more symmetrical option like a full knob top module and a 60% plank without the right knob that comes default with the base keyboard.

1:02 you can make foam sound panels with that stuff too!

Can't believe you don't have move viewers. enamoured with your videos, keep making more.

Thank you for let me know that it's and how we can do better. I also try to build a modular keyboard for myself, so I try to search anyone have same idea and I find this. I am so sad to see that I haven't seen a better version until now. The product more like a art than a keyboard (what a mockery). Maybe I can do better and I want, because I'm a programmer which means I also must use it to work not just louder saying "work louder".

First of all your vids are amazing... And you are so right the concept is amazing but the execution left a lot wanting.. I'm disappointed this ain't what it could be.. I would have definitely bought it if it had

You can mitigate many of the software gripes by using VIAL instead of VIA. It's a GUI just like VIA, but with much more of QMK's features exposed for programming/assignment. No further flashing of firmware is required too -- it'll work out of the box with QMK/VIA firmware

I would probably modify the entire keyboard only to improve the constructability. Unless they design an upgraded version which I'm constantly following for updates in their Notion blog.

Love the look of this. But really wouldn’t want to use it with that straight layout. I’d mistype everything.

@@CheeseTurbulence Yeah I saw that, what I meant was like make a normal keyboard, but replace all the keycaps with these flat square ones, but keep the standard keyboard layout and keysize. Like a long flat spacebar, tabs, enter, etc being bigger than standard keys.

This keyboard is sexy af but the 249$ and 400$ tho... I understand that they are a small company and the 400$ you are paying includes all of the small details that you mention like the video manual, their responses to the customers and other details but i can't wrap my head around a 400$ non custom keyboard and kailh only switches keycaps. I think the bouncing issue could be fix by adding some screws for the middle. You put a lot of effort into this video and this is amazing too! keep it up.
