Custom mechanical keyboards are getting more popular today given that you can fine tune the keyboard to your exact preferences. Keyboard enthusiast will rejoice as Dreamcore launches of the Hex.4B Dreamcore Edition, a limited edition colourway of the popular 75%-layout Hex.4B mechanical keyboard by Hex Keyboards.
Wait, what is Hex.4B?
In case you haven’t heard, Hex Keyboards is a locally keyboard manufacturer and their Hex.4B is one of their latest keyboard launched this year. Here’s a quick rundown of the Hex.4B Dreamcore Edition keyboard:
- Vivid Nightshade purple CNC aluminum case
- Internal brass weight with Dreamcore branding
- 75% Layout with compact function row
- O-Ring PCB Mount
- VIA Compatible PCB
- 7 Degree Typing Angle
Do note that the Hex.4B keyboard is a plateless keyboard, which utilizes soldered switch mounting. This means it is not going to be your convenient hotswap PCB like what the Supersolid DT-001. However, this also means the typing feel is going to be different from a keyboard with a plate, expect it to be bouncy and gentle. Again in the custom keyboard scene, it is up to personal preference.
Limited edition – only 100 units
Yup, you read it right. This unfortunately won’t be an in-stock keyboard. And there only 100 units available – 20 fully assembled, 80 barebones.
How much is it?
The Hex.4B Dreamcore Edition will retail at S$350 for a barebones kit, and prices will start at $500 for fully-assembled units. These units will be available for purchase at hex.dreamcore.com.sg starting 09:00 PM Singapore Time on 19th November 2021.
