Clavier entièrement en aluminium ATTACK SHARK X75

I was initially impressed by the quality of the Attack Shark keyboard I bought for my child, considering its affordable price. When I saw the Attack Shark X75 on sale and discovered it was all-aluminum, I couldn't resist.

Upon receiving it, I immediately noticed the excellent build quality and enjoyed using it immensely. Unfortunately, I also found a minor dent on one side of the keyboard, likely caused during shipping.

I contacted customer support to inquire about replacing the frame. To my delight, their service exceeded all my expectations. Their prompt and helpful assistance has turned me into a loyal customer.

I will undoubtedly be purchasing more keyboards and potentially mice from Attack Shark in the future. Thank you for this exceptional customer experience!

It’s beautiful keyboard. Good switches, great sound, great body. All’s well… Except a little detail. You lost RIGHT ALT key!!! Why? For a God’s sake way? That key is very important in Serbian keyboard, that I use. This is incredible. Except that little detail - everything else looks good.

カラーごとに商品の塗装やバックプレートの質感が違うようです。
紫は筐体が光沢でバックプレートが銅、白は筐体が非光沢でバックプレートがシルバーガラスでした。黒は買ってないので分かりません。
本体の質感がとても良くいいモノを買ったという気持ちになります。
打鍵感はAula f75をやかましくした感じでコトコト系です。

This is going to be amazing so I alrady offered it 5 stars!

This is a follow up after receiving the board. -SM
Initial Impression:
Right out of the box I was impressed to find a mode switch and USB storage on the front of the keyboard. I'm a big fan of not hiding the wireless switch under a keycap. The board itself has a good weight to it and a smooth finish that doesn't promote fingerprints. Almost slick to the touch.

Powering it on, I was greeted with very colorful, bright LEDs glowing from under the cherry keycaps and echoed nicely through the POM or PC non flex cut plate. Most LEDs controls were bound to keys that I considered to be the standard controls for changes, i.e. brightness, mode and speeds. Using VIA, I was able to assign the others where I wanted them with no issues. Even found a couple of new ones that I fancy.

Speaking of VIA, while I was modifying bindings, I swapped the location of the delete and home key as well as the FN and CTRL keys. For me, they were both backwards. Also backwards was the windows and mac mode bindings. On this board, FN+A brings you to the Mac mode and Fn+S switches you back to windows. I left that one alone, I tend to agree that Apple should be A and Windows should be S. (for whatever you like that rhymes with S …)

While the details of the switches are not disclosed, I can tell you that they are linear switches and light ones at that. I’d guess them to be between 40 and 43g of actuation force needed to trigger them.

The sound of the keyboard is nice and thocky with a bit of marbley thin cream to it. Using the standard cherry caps on it is fine, however, they are a bit on the thin side and I look forward to changing them out soon.

Updating FW and programing with VIA:
Attack Shark’s website has posted a good version of the JSON file, it was easy to find and worked as expected with USEVIA.com. There is a firmware update available for the USB dongle. While I dont use it, with a little trial and error I did successfully update mine. It’s not clear on their website what the firmware update does and to make things more confusing, the PDF file of instructions included in the ZIP appears corrupt. From my experience, the FW is intended only for the usb dongle. Not the keyboard itself. To complete the update, I had to add the dongle to the computer, then connect the keyboard via 2.4, then launch the updater and it will complete successfully. Once completed, I had to move my dongle to a different usb port to get it to work again. After that I just put it back into its storage as I use BT.

Modding:
Nice trick they played with the case screws. 7 of the 8 worked with a 1.5 hex bit. The last one took a Torx bit to remove. “That one trick” almost kept me out of the board. I must be getting lazy. That said, I'm nothing if not stubborn… The screws release the top bracket which gives way to the top/surface mounted assembly of the PCB and Plate. That rests with silicone gaskets on the base of the unit and three connectors allow you to separate it from the battery, mode switch and usb daughterboard.

Since I had the board apart, I figured I’d apply some tape to where the top of the case meets the bottom to dampen the small amount of case ping I could hear. I was out of painter tape at the moment and since the board sounds good as it is, I left the rest alone. For now.

The Highs:
Low Cost
VIA
Onboard USB Storage
Physical Mode selector switch (Because some of us still like shutting stuff off when we are done easily)
Lighter than other boards in its class
Comfortable flex from the gasket mount with flex cut pcb
Easy to mod with the right tools
5KmAh Battery which is longer lasting than most
Comes with two spare switches, alternate caps to customize your look, usb cable and keycaps puller.
No need to change out the stabs
The stock switches are thocky and generally smooth and light.
FN+Alt gives battery indicator lights

The Lows:
The quality of the Keycaps, the OEM’s are a bit on the thin and cheap feeling side.
The Mirror black plate weight should have just been omitted. It’s got a rough surface, it's not that good looking and generally doesn’t fit the aesthetics of the board well in my opinion
After a little bit of very unscientific testing using a Web site, I was able to get the results of a 500Mhz polling rate when wired to my laptop. I’ll be honest here, I’m not very well versed in that however it seems simple enough to use and get the answers with.
At the time I ordered, the board was only available from attack sharks website. Shipping out of China was very delayed so it took about 2 weeks to arrive in the US. Most of that time was on the ground in China.
Advertised as having a 7000mAh battery.
Conclusion:
The all aluminum 75 segment has heavy completion in the $100 dollar price range. If you catch it on sale for 68 bucks all in like I did, then pull the trigger. It’s great for general day to day usage, has features other boards don’t and can be...
