Very good set of keycaps
As most reviews will attest, the packaging is excellent and the unboxing is out of this world. Plus the amount of options this keycap set provides is beyond expectations - I dont think there are many keyboard layouts these sets cannot accommodate - 40%, 60%, 65%, 75% TKL, 1800/96 and full size layouts should all be covered with this one set.The keycaps themselves are pretty crisp quality, couldn't see any imperfections in printing or the keycaps in the set I received. Only thing to be aware about, these are pretty high profile keycaps, so just make sure that suits you (I use a wrist rest with a Drop Alt high profile, so I am ok with the height). Also there is a bit of wobble and somewhat hollow sound, though suspect that is due to the stem being shorter than the profile (using on a Drop Alt with Glorious panda switches). Overall, not too bad and no issues with typing etc even with this.

Bang for your buck!!!
Well, recently due to online classes I got myself a laptop stand as I could no longer stand my stiff neck after long hours of studying non-stop at my computer ( like the studious student I am) ( i am not )I decided it was time for me to grab myself a bluetooth keyboard to pair with my new setup as well, but have always been interested to get into the field of mechanical keyboards to have a taste of what it feels like to TYPE ASMR, and after many youtube review videos as well as many reddit post reads, i chose to purchase my very first which was this!! The Epomaker s68, even promoted by epomaker to be their staple entry model into the mechanical keyboard world... and truth be told, they did not disappoint, for what I got for 39£ with a voucher and i suppose good timing I have been using the keyboard for the past week and it has been nothing short of amazing..Devices i use:- MacBook Air- iPad Prothe switch between device to device is simply amazing and one that is very fluid, and although there are no Mac keycaps that come with the s68, fret not as they are completely compatitble and you will find the CMD key you are looking for to be the ALT key on this keyboard, simply by just changing from Windows mode to Mac mode, the experience is a seemless one. However, I'll have you know that I have never own a mechanical keyboard in my life hence i have no idea how this stands up against the likes of keychron etc... but i was looking at the logitech k380 as an alternative as I wasn't sure if mechanical keyboards would be my thing but so far i have not looked back and my experience has been very good so far!!!The only issue i have:- the ENTER key is not as pictured in the photos of the black keyboard, they are those pictured in the white keyboard instead, something only important to those who would like to eventually swap out keycaps... but not a big issue for those who would like to use the keyboard as the stock versionVerdict:- I got the brown keys and safe to say am very happy with what i got so far and that the experience has been amazing thus far...- Its a 60% keyboard which is amazing for ergonomics but may need some time getting used to... but i'm certain you'll get the hang of it!- if you're considering a mechanical keyboard and have a tight budget (student things) i suggest to go with this the EPOMAKER S68!- and do not be afraid of the bluetooth 3.0 configuration of this keyboard, there is barely any noticeable lag interms of input/output speed the latency is very very smooth!!!!if this changes i'll be sure to notify you guys haha, till then have a good day and enjoy yourselves if you choose to pickup the Epomaker s68 :D

Go elsewhere
I've had this keyboard for 3 months, here's how it's been:Pros:-Nice and compact-Great battery life-iso layout-Great feeling switchesCons:- the BT connection is laughably short (to the point I can't even pull the keyboard to the edge of my desk before keys just won't get registered at all and considering the pc is less that 1ft away it's a real nause)Picture to show distance that it loses bt connection at- for some reason the keyboard has felt the need to disconnect itself multiple times and is now no longer allowing me to pair it with any Bluetooth device as it won't go into pairing mode, I have checked to ensure that the Bluetooth is enabled on both devices and it just won't play ball.All in all, super disappointed as I was hoping to get a great keyboard at a good price point but this just hasnt lived up to the task. I would reccomend avoiding this products

Excellent
WOB feel smooth in PBT on an Epomaker EP84 keyboard. Lovely presentation case makes fitting easy. Excellent quality and no imperfections found. Delighted and will buy AKKO keycaps again.

In love!
I never understood the hype over mechanical keyboards until I started working from home. It's so satisfying hearing the 'click' sound whilst I type. The keyboard is also compact which means that it doesn't take up too much space. The cherry on top is the variety of lighting modes. In addition you can also use this keyboard wired or wireless. A double thumbs up from me.

Made my keyboard sound 110% better
The feel of the key are amazing and are a joy to type on during work and game during the evening. Would 100% recommend! Although to be warned, the cap set doesn’t include all UK key like the enter key or the UK orientation for @ and “ but other than that I would highly recommend it as you can get use to that.
