    Are you a keeb beginner? What do you think you'll start with? :)
  • They say the first minute of a video is the most important for retaining a viewer. By 39 seconds I feel like this dude adressed the overwhelming nature of the topic and really understands the audience. Half the videos are basically shotgun-on-the-shooting-range attempts.
  • @ashVGF
    Great review, it's like im talking to a friendly salesman at a store who knows his stuff and is not forcing me to buy. Great examples, clarity of voice, editing. Good stuff!
  • I really like this video. I feel like it was practical and a great start for a beginner like myself. I have watched a fair few videos on the topic and they are often far TOO detailed for someone who is just looking to start out- to the point where it becomes overwhelming. You struck the right balance, in my opinion, between informing and over-informing. Thanks so much!
  • Wow, I've finally found a video that goes straight to the point at the same time it's informative. I really wished I'd seen it before buying my first mechanical keyboard :/
  • Absolutely stupid how HELPFUL this video is. Perfect blend of humor and information. In person demonstration is a must. Would love a link to demo all key types side x side. Like one key is red the next one is blue etc. thanks for great video. Subbed
  • This is the most comprehensive video for mechanical keyboard beginners I've ever watched. Love it, thank you
  • ive been looking into keyboards for a bit and havent found a good guide for someone that doesnt already know much about mechanical keyboards, thank you
  • Always heard you talk about mechanical keyboards over on DYEB and wondered if you'd venture making that content! This is supercool! Thanks for the quick and dirty guide, Pete!
  • @zckom
    After watching so many videos, this is the only one that I can understand and have a clearer picture on what to do for my first custom mechanical keyboard.
  • This is a very good video for beginners like me. Spent the past few days doing some research for getting my first keyboard and I wish I started with this video because it’s a perfect summary of what I’ve come across :)
  • This is probably the most helpful video I have come across to help me start with this hobby and decide which keyboard I want to get so thank you for that!
  • This was a great video, and really helped. You've explained everything without getting too detailed, without over explaining, and now I know what to look out for without getting lost in the technicalities. Gonna go spend money now, haha. THANK YOU!
  • @KA-zq3yp
    Great video. Well put together and prepared. Thanks for your time on this.
  • @dgutie8
    Great video! Answered all my questions! Thank-you!
  • @RhaianyLeicy
    you honestly answered all my questions, so happy i found your video, thanks!! very informative and straight foward!
  • @davidadegoke
    Thanks for the awesome video! 🙌🏽 Recently started getting really interested in mech keyboards and was just about to make my first purchase (CIDOO V75 prebuilt) and it’s so great to see that all the points mentioned in your video were quite helpful in arriving at this point.
  • @blankuhaku12
    Straight to the point, simple and with examples to show. Most importantly, easy to understand. Awesome video thanks!
  • This video is actually very helpful, thanks. Ordered my very first mechanical keyboard, cant wait for it to arrive somewhere this year
  • @InnocenceVVX
    I did not know this topic and video had so much to give, kudos to you sir. Great vid.
