QPAD MK-50 (or another in the series)

[Automaton]

anyone got any experience with this keyboard?

It uses Cherry MX Red switches; the only ones I want ATM.

It's the cheapest one with red switches I could find without going into some shady areas of tenkeyless (keyboards such as the KeyCool 87 - ones with mixed reviews that aren't that well known).

Do QPAD make good quality products? Will this be any good for Starcraft II Gaming and typing?



Thanks in advance.

It's an rebranded xarmor. So no, it's not a quality board.

They have however made the stabilizers better, so it's not as bad as the xarmor boards was. I'd go for a keycool instead of Qpad anyway tho.

I got one of these for my brother, for two reasons mainly - one of the first readily available ISO keyboards with mx reds, and the price.
It's a good keyboard if you all you want is mechanical switches and don't require extra features. I think it's a bit taller than say, a filco keyboard, but it comes with a wristrest. As a side note, the 4 red WSAD keys that came with my brother's keyboard were actually too small to fit on the switches!

I actually haven't tried it very much myself, but enough to tell that I must get a mx red board myself.
