LTC NB681 Nimbleback Wired 65% Mechanical Keyboard, RGB Backlit Ultra-Compact 68 Keys Gaming Keyboard with Hot-Swappable Switch and Stand-Alone Arrow/Control Keys (Hot Swappable Brown Switch, White)

I bought this keyboard for a laptop to use for gaming and let me tell you! This keyboard is so underrated! The build feels nice and sturdy, and if you’ve seen videos it’s highly customizable! I got the one with red switches and was thinking about switching my switches to those cream milky ones but these reds feel nice! I’m not crazy keyboard dude but in terms of feel and functionality it met all my standards and the price! Like bruh the price is nice too! I definitely recommend for someone who wants a smaller keyboard or if they just want a keyboard for their setup. 5/5 for me and hope you guys buy it and see for yourself!

I think this is my 4th keyboard and finally I found the one I absolutely love. Love the action. Its way too noisy for a shared space, but for my office by myself its great. The action is just amazing, I can type noticeably faster but mostly it just feels great to type on. I wanted a lighted keyboard to work in the early am hours with dim light. I don't use the fancy light modes, just constant color so I can see the keys in the dark.

I love how compact the keyboard is and allows for a lot of room for the mouse, especially when you have a small desk like mine. The backlights are absolutely beautiful and the amount of customization makes this an amazing choice for people into aesthetically pleasing items.I chose red switches which are really nice and smooth to type with, however, when it comes to gaming the switches lack that 'click' that lets you know you've pressed the key. This has interfered with my gaming as I have accidentally pressed unwanted keys. But that is easily fixable as this keyboard is fully customizable and you are able to exchange the switches.This keyboard doesn't feel like it's cheap. Not that I know what an expensive keyboard feels like, but for those who just use keyboards for their basic functionality, I would 100% recommend this one for its price point.So far, this keyboard has been amazing to do work/game with. I recommend this keyboard for those who are looking for aesthetically pleasing keyboards and are on a budget. I also believe this is a good product to play games with if you understand how to modify switches to give yourself the best experience. For me, I'm looking to exchange some of the red switches with more tactile ones so I don't accidentally press down on them during games.Overall, I love this keyboard so much and I am in heaven using this keyboard to type out this review. I hope this has helped.

Background: Definitely not my first mech. Probably not my 10th either. I'd like to think I've spent enough time in the mechanical keyboard community to properly judge this thing. I got this because I wanted a cheap hotswappable board to try out. Can't beat this things price for what it offers.I spray-painted my top and bottom case and I outfitted it with some off brand red samurai keycaps. For the time being, I have some KTT rose switches, they're a 63.5 g linear switch.Pros:1) Its form factor is not to everyone's taste but I like it. I need a separate arrow block and its nice to have 4 nav keys. 68 keys is about what you get inmost 65% percent layouts.2) Mac compatability is a big one, not enough mechs have this feature and its a darn shame.Mac users need representation to and its nice that this keyboard considers that3) RGB is cool.4) You can get the program from their website that allows you to reprogram keys, and every key is programmable5) Stock stabalizers are bone dry but they clean up VERY nicely. They become shockingly good with some lube and grease.6) Stock red switches are surprisingly good. The slider is not factory lubed but they're not even that scratchy. They're so good that i even decided to keep them. They're on par with a cherry or Gateron Red I'd say. I also think they lubed the springs with some oil, cause i couldn't hear any spring ping on them.7) It uses Kailh hotswap sockets, which are the best around. Or, at least they are what eveyr high end custom keyboard uses for their hotswap sockets.Neutral: I have literally no idea what the plate is made out of. I heard iron, fiberglass, steel, and aluminum. Whatever it is, it's hard and denseCons:1) No per key RGB programmability, I tried in the software and its either not there or I'm too stupid to figure it out,2) You can't edit ANY layers, not alt or ctl or shift or function. Whatever functions the keyboard has is all it has. If you reprogram the key, the function layer on that key also disappears. This sucks, especially with a small form factor like this, which NECESSITATES you have function layer programmability,3) The 1U alt and the 1.75 unit shift suck d**k. There is more than enough room to have a standard sized bottom row and a standard sized right shift, this only serves to make it more expensive to customize the keyboard (which is the whole point of a hotswappable board) as now you have buy extended keycap sets that have more than the standard 104 keys. they're all over the place, but its a hassle.4) The sound of the board is very muted. This is a preference thing but I love the clacky linear sound. However, in this board, every switch sounds muted, no clack, no thock, just a barely audible bottoming out sound, and for some reason the key press feels mushy when typing fast but typing slow it feels fine. There's just something wrong with how it feels to me, and the way it removes the characteristics of switches is a real turn off for me. I tried to fix it by burger mounting the screws with 3mm o rings and i got rid of the 2 center screw posts, and that helped, but only a little.It's a board for trying switches, not really for the feel of typing.5) Stock keycaps are bad, generic oem abs doubleshot with a translucent material.

I have had mine for about a year an a half. I didn't want to spent a fortune on a gaming key board and I made the right choice. Great price, sound, value and quality. I am even using it to write this review right now!

the keyboard is very responsive and has no current issues with good rgb and works not just for gaming but everyday use

I got this for my boyfriend as a birthday gift and he really loved it! We both like it because it has a satisfying click sound but not to loud ! Easy to clean and even comes with some extra keys ! He’s had this for a little over a year so I would say it’s very worth it and long lastin ! Rgb light are vibrant and colorful, haven’t had issues since first use ! If your thinking of getting as a gift for a loved one very much recommend! (My boyfriend uses his keyboard every day for school work and gaming both for multiple hours and have had 0 problems)

Excelente teclado, tal como se describe. El layout 65% es bastante compacto y con el tiempo de uso aprendes a usar las teclas menos comunes con Fn. Es de muy buena calidad, hotswappable por lo que su durabilidad tambien sera muy buena. Los switches se sienten bien y viene con algunos de repuesto. A precio original es una buena compra. En descuento, una gran compra.

No tengo mucho contexto para poder comparar este teclado con algún otro, ya que es mi primer teclado mecánico. Sin embargo mi experiencia hasta hoy ha sido bastante buena.El teclado se siente de buena construcción, solido. El cage parece ser de aluminio, la calidad de las teclas se ve muy bien y sin duda el RGB y sus modos de color son muy atractivos.Tal vez el unico punto en contra que puedo ponerle es que no soy tan fan del tacto "clicky" de los switches, pero compre este teclado con el plan de personalizarlo a futuro y ya que el teclado es intercambiable, no debería de ser un impedimento para comprarlo si también buscas personalizar tu teclado.Como dije, no tengo mucho con que compararlo, pero creo que si en tu caso, así como en el mi, este es tu primer teclado mecánico, definitivamente diría que es una buena compra.Actualizare esta reseña cuando le haga algunas modificaciones al teclado para comentar acerca de la experiencia de desarmar el teclado y personalizarlo, pero hasta ahora le pongo un 10/10

I am not a die-hard keyboard hobbyist but I own a few other mechanical keyboards and have gone through the effort of adding foam their cases, lubing switches and stabilizers and buying nicer switches. I purchased this keyboard because I wanted a cheaper board to throw in my bag when working in an office or coffeeshop. I went with the linear switches to keep it on the quiet side. To my surprise (at this price point) I opened the package and found the board already quite pleasant to type on. The switches were JERRZI linears and they were decently smooth already (keep in mind I am not a linear fan so take that opinion with a grain of salt). I pulled out all the switches and lubed them. While lubing I noticed there is a huge variation in spring length (1-2 mm) across the switches. I don't notice it while typing but maybe someone else would. While I had the switches out I figured I would lube the stabilizers and add some padding. However, the stabilizers are already lubed and there is padding pre-installed! I was really impressed. The only downside I found is that the switch stems seem to be slightly smaller than standard so my other keycaps feel loose on them. They aren't loose enough to fall off when flipping the board but there is very little resistance removing a cap by hand. The keycaps that come with the board are tighter and hold onto the switch stems very tightly. Speaking of the keycaps, they are obviously thin double-shot ABS. They aren't the worst I've ever used. The legend is not gamer-y and doesn't stand out in an office setting. The backlight through the caps is very non-uniform if you care for that sort of thing.Overall, an amazing value and I'd recommend to someone to even just buy and use out of the box. Since it is hotswap, switching to another set of switches down the road is easy.

Die perfekte Tastatur für jedes Setup ich würde empfehlen noch ein coiled-cable zu kaufen

If you want something affordable and good for your money this might be the best thing you could get. I was surprised to hear that switches were pre-lubed and the case was fitted with extra foam for sound dampening. Realisticly it's also one of the easiest keyboards I've ever customised, with a removable front plate, hotswap, and already great LEDs. This combined with the 2 extra USB slots alongside the removable USB C for power is just a dream. My only slight gripe with it is that the red switches are a little bit sensitive however that's probably just me as I used to use a blue switch as my daily runner.
