Been looking for ages for a 75/80% compact keeb with aluminum body, ISO-DE and 2.4Ghz Wireless.

Finally got my package with the IQUNIX Super Zonex 75. Gateron Silent MX Reds and Keychron Developer Cap Set to replace my old Corsair K70.

Super happy with the Zonex 75, decently heavy, looks and feels very nice. 6000mAh, VIA support, and great lighting, absolutely in love. Gateron reds feel very well, but I've had several broken pins in my batch and had to swap several switches since they have not been working. No idea if I screwed up, since it's my first custom build, or just a bad batch. Keychron keycaps are also feeling super nice.

In my first and only build I screwed up a couple of cherrymx while inserting them in their sockets, luckily I managed to straight them and they worked. The issue is that when you start you are super careful while putting them in, after 15-20 you feel an expert and you screw up :D

Anyway, very nice build!

Here is mine

Third Pic had a long Island for celebration

And I just realized I never took a picture of the final build

Nice build as well - Keychron Kit, right?

And yeah, the flukes started when I got faster. I think I also misplaced the foam between the PCB and mount slightly. Had a few spares due to the 75% though.

Yes. It's the full sized wired one. All from keychron.

I was thinking about buying a bling bling as an ESC key from Etsy. Like a silver one XD

Makes no sense but it's so thrash I love it
