amazon iKBC Table E series reviews
We often know iKBC for its big, heavy, thick, and extremely reliable keyboards. However, their creativity is not limited to that.
iKBC table E is a disruptive product line of iKBC, bringing a new breeze in the mid-range mechanical key market. The following will be a quick review of one of iKBC’s E-series keyboards – iKBC Table E401
Design
Not as fierce as gaming keyboard models, not as lean and thick as non-LED keyboards. Table E series follows a completely new design style.
At first glance, you will see that the keyboard has a very large area due to the design attached to the palm rest. However, it is this design that gives it soft and delicate lines, not square like many conventional mechanical key models. This palm rest also has a very moderate slope, helping the user’s hand always have a comfortable use position.
Perfection
Case
The cover of the keyboard is finished with a rough finish, giving a relatively good fingerprint resistance, the case is also very solid without any creaking, giving a very reliable feeling of use. At the bottom of the keyboard are 5 very large rubber feet that prevent slipping very well. This keyboard also has 2 levels of lifting and lowering to be more suitable for different usage habits.
Keycap
The keycap part is made of ABS but has a rather hard plastic, the surface of the keycap is not rough, but feels very grippy. The coating of the keycap is also very well-finished, giving sharp characters and absolutely no light when the LED is on.
Plate and Stabilizer
The plate part is made of metal for a very strong and sharp bottom-tapping feeling. The stabilizer is also very well finished, the long keys are very stable and do not emit a metallic sound when typing strongly. These are also typical strengths of iKBC.
Palmrest part
Palmrest is simple, but not sketchy. From the width and slope to the roughness of the coating, iKBC has designed it to be very optimal, giving users the most comfortable feeling.
Switch
The type of switch used on iKBC table E401 is the Cherry MX switch, a switch that has been known and recognized by mechanical key users for a long time not only because of its good, uniform processing quality, and smooth pressing feeling, but also its high precision, great reliability.
LED system
Although the LED system is only white monochrome, it is also very well-finished. The light shines through extremely evenly and sharply on each character, the LEDs also give very high brightness. Particularly, the space key is very long, so it is equipped with 3 LEDs for more even lighting. The lighting modes and brightness of the LED system can be adjusted instantly thanks to the macro keystroke system.
Practical experience
Typing feeling
It can be said that this is one of the keyboards with an ABS keycap for the best typing feeling that the writer has ever experienced. The cherry switch gives a very smooth typing experience in the key presentation, the metal plate feels extremely solid when hitting the bottom. Although the keycap is made of ABS plastic, it feels quite good in contact with the coating that is very grippy. The extended palm rest allows the wrist to always have a rest when operating on the keyboard. For the writer, although the typing feeling is not too good, it gives an extremely pleasant user experience.
Conclude
iKBC Table E is a revolutionary keyboard line of iKBC when this keyboard line does not follow their usual thick, sturdy design. Table E keyboards not only give a very good typing feeling in the price range but also bring high aesthetic value because of the elegant, soft, and delicate design style.
If you are looking for a keyboard that is both good in experience and can become a beautiful decoration for your entertainment and working corner, then the iKBC Table E series of keyboards will be the best choice for you. Not a bad choice.
