    At 44 years old, I never cared about my keyboard or speed. I was jealous of my wife 80Wpm and decided to take a test..., 10 wpm and I was watching my keyboard. I took the free classes online and started touch typing and after 2 months I was at 25 Wpm(98% acc). Then I purchased a Moonlander thanks to your video. In less than 1 month, training 1-2 hours/day , I reached 50wpm(98% accuracy) various times. This is a game changer, and probably it should be a standard as It made my shoulder pain completely away. A must have and thanks again for your amazing review.

    I travel with mine. It gets checked in, so I use the case often. I swapped my liner red with Kailh silent browns. Love them. Also, the long keyboard cable works well when operating on a couch. Agree, the cables are a bit naff

    This review pushed me over the edge, I gotta get one now. The split looks soooo good for the wrists
  • That's a great video. Just some FYIs for anyone watching this video, you can get the Moonlander with blank keycaps (same goes for the ErgoDox EZ and likely the other 2 from ZSA). You can choose a longer warranty (so you're not stuck to a 1 year warranty).

    Thanks for the review. Just a note: the metal piece under the red keycap is a stabilizer, not spring.

    Thanks! Great, genuine review!!!

    I really loved this review. Normally the people that review the Moonlander (that I've seen) are professional keyboard people. Not normal people. I'm a professional programmer, so I type all day, but would rather hear a review from someone who works hard with their hands than someone who has 6 bajillion keyboards. So thank you for the review. You're the reason I'm buying it. As for your complaints or hopes for improvements. I feel that they were all valid. I personally don't care about the RGB effects, but I can see why you'd want the ability to set them up to be more intuitive especially since you're the end user so you suffer with it more than the engineers at ZSA. I also loved how you learned about the spring for the red thumb button during the video! It made me laugh and I think I'll try the same thing on removing the metal bar and see how it feels. Great review man

    FYI you can change the color of the (single-color) rgb animations with the "hue +" and "hue -" keys. You can also configure a key to set the hue to a specific color.

    Thanks for this review. Pulled the trigger--loved my keychron but time for a change
  • @DeshanJayampath
    thanks for the review! a little different than other similar reviews, but it's pretty good.
  • @John-thinks
    I think the metal piece under your red key is called a stabilizer and if you lube it, that will deal with the sound without having to remove it entirely.

    That is a nice keyboard. I’ll never give up my X-Bows though, it is very very ergonomic and at the price of good mechanical keyboards, not a price to the moon. But this seems very good too and maybe even more versatile. May I add that ortho is mandatory but it is nothing without a dvorak disposition.
  • @caddgames9885
    I'm so excited for mine to come! I ordered the black moon lander earlier today. I've never used an ergo keyboard before and this one definitely seems amazing.
  • @rodrickzero7248
    Excellent review!! Btw I'm genuinely curious on how you edit videos using it. I use both Premiere Pro and After Effects regularly and I'm afraid I won't find a layout that helps me with it, could you do a video on it?
  • @oes2546
    I just invested quite a bit in some nice keyboard(s). It's nice to switch it up a bit for typing comfort I found. This was mostly in anticipation of the considerable hours I'll be spending on my degree and a couple of computer-heavy subjects the next year. However, now my wrists are starting to hurt quite a bit from the excessive keyboard usage, and I wish I spent the money on this in the first place! It just makes so much sense, but it's far to expensive for my student budget right now.

    I used my traveling case every day for a year, it was very useful. It’s a good thing to have, even if you are say, moving to a new home or something like that. Keeps the keyboard safe. I am a year and a half in, and my kids have never cracked.

    As a remote worker who travels a lot for work the case is a dream
