XVX PBT Keycaps - Side Print, Shine Through Custom, Retro Keycap Set, 128 Cherry Profile Keys for Mechanical Keyboards, Plum Blossom

These check every box a little. They are PBT, so glorious clack and clomp. They'll also last forever before going "shiny" on you. Their compromise for backlit/shine-through key legends depends on your mood. They move them to the front of the keycap. I like it.The wood grain look is done well. With your backlight off, these could be wood. Someone could think they are. And typing on them isn't going to do anything but convince someone they are walnut, if the backlight is off. I'm typing on them now. They are fantastic. Very very quick. They work well with the Gateron Browns I prefer, and promote quickly floating over the tops of keys just barely activating them. Little things are nice too. They include a lot of extra keys, so I was able to fish out a second WIN key, one for backlight, one for screenshot, etc. They addressed something that's a pet peeve of mine, and missing on a lot of modern keysets. The J and F keys have perfect indents at the bottom you can just feel with your fingers to let you know they are the home position typing keys. No hunting in the dark. This is great for gaming.Are they perfect? Pretty close. There's things they could have done. Like making the wood grain pattern match across the keycaps. Or slightly different shades of wood for function vs letter vs F keys. Little style things. They could have included printed legends on the top also. But again, at this price, I'm more than satisfied. They even Include a little key puller, and separate the caps into 3 sets with the common keys in one, and the fillers in the others. It's all very logical and very well done. I'll be buying more of these.

Surprisingly nice keycaps. I bought them as sort of a joke since I've never seen keycaps that have a woodgrain look before but I was pleasantly surprised. They feel nice, they're not slippery and have a very slight grip to them. They feel dense and high quality while having a clean design. The rgb of my keyboard shines through beautifully as well. Since my keyboard has south facing LEDs these keycaps were perfect for my needs.

I have been buying different caps to test and try for awhile and I wanted to see how the wood style caps held up.The color is okay but the caps are thin to the point the LED tends to bleed through the top. Apparently, all the offered patterns suffer from this flawI will say that they feel very durable and the tenge texture is granular like wood. The don’t advertise this but they do behave like a phantom keycap where the lettering is not visible without the lights on.The shine through is very good and I was surprised how bold the font was. Just keep in mind that these are a lower profile cherry keycap and the top and bottom rows may overlap with the rows in front of them.With the right switch these keys can actually sound like a wooden thock and I love that about these.Definitely worth a buy if a wood aesthetic is what you want.

The media could not be loaded. I got my Wormier S-K80 4 days ago and immediately realized an issue, the key caps are not illuminated, and the leds on the switches will only light side print key caps. After doing just a little searching I found these XVX caps that went with the keyboard theme so I thought I'd give them a try. As you can see by the pics and video above they compliment the keyboard in every way.Great product and the price was better than expected.

Pros: Keys look and feel good. They light up very well with south facing LED keyboard like the Keychron V3 that I have. Page Up and Page Down are abbreviated the standard way of PGUP and PGDN. Home, End, Ins, and Del are also abbreviated the standard way. A couple of blank keys are provided that have no shine through for customizing.Cons: The alternate Caps Lock keys post is misaligned and therefore does not actually fit this set because it hits the A key. There is only one WIN key, two would be good so both left and right sides are the same. Blank keys are limited to only a couple and they do not cover all the sizes for a normal key, caps lock, shift, (ctrl, win, alt, options, command) keys. No alternate keys are provided for Scroll lock, Break, and Pause keys. My biggest complaint was about the spacebar being slightly to big and slightly warped. I contacted the manufacturer and they shipped me a replacement set of keycaps which arrived within a week or so of contacting them. Everything now works as expected and still looks good. The second set they sent were a slightly different color but that worked out great for me as I now have a two tone keyboard with the letter keys from one set and the control/action keys from the other set.TLDR: Good overall keycap set, great customer service, easy install and absolutely no reason not to buy now.

I like the way these look and feel, however, I have an issue with the spacebar. Whenever I try to put the spacebar on my keyboard, it's as if it gets stuck and has difficulty fitting properly. Otherwise, I believe these are good quality items and work as they should.

Looks very nice bought these for my hubby and he loves it, if there was anything to say bad it’s just that the light shining through the keys isn’t super bright. Gives a nice clacking sound if you like that, and it’s pretty easy to put them on and off since they give you a tool to do it.

great keycaps that make my bad keyboard sound better, just a little to slippery
