KEEBMONKEY WOBKEY Crush 80 Reboot CNC Aluminium 5 seconden Quick-Release Triple-Mode Connectiviteit Mechanisch Toetsenbord met Superieure Akoestiek (Lite Zilver)

Okay, so I'm going to separate this review into a few different categories. I also own the Rainy75 (essentially the smaller sibling of the Crush 80 and still made by Wobkey) so I'm going to be comparing the two a lot. To quickly summarize my opinion though, I think the Crush 80 is a phenomenal board at this price and I think, in general, it's a better value purchase than the Rainy 75.Build Quality and Features:This keyboard has most if not all of the premium features you expect out of a good keyboard in 2025. It's got tri-mode connectivity (Wired, Wireless, Bluetooth), it's got RGB, It's got quality of life features like ball catch closure and pogo pin connectors.As far as quality, the Crush 80 feels very, very premium. It's made of CNC aluminum and it is very heavy. I believe it weighs around 2.4 kg or 5.4 lb. This keyboard is chunky and on the larger side, being a TKL (80%). The rubber feet, side RGB, RGB ECG feature, etc are all great. I think the navy blue one I got is anodized too, which in my opinion feels more premium than my spray coated blue Rainy 75.The magnetic ball catch case is so nice to have if you plan on modding this. Essentially, the case and assembly still feels very solid but when taking the keyboard apart to mod, you do not need any tools. There are no screws to handle unless you're fiddling with the bottom weight specifically. It takes 2 seconds to open this keyboard up. With the rainy 75, you have to take out 12 keycaps, which will reveal screws that, when taken out, will finally allow you to take the top of the case off. The Crush 80 is so much more convenient to mod.Another QOL feature is the POGO pin connectors. Instead of having a cable that connects the battery/case to the PCB, it's a simple contact-based magnetic connector. This means there is no cable to unplug and potentially break. You can just lift the PCB assembly right out of the case without unplugging anything internally. This is also a feature that the Rainy 75 is lacking.The Crush80 has some nice RGB accents on it aside from the key lighting. It's got an RGB heart ECG design that is above the arrow keys as well as two downward-facing RGBs; one on either side that will shine some light on your desk. Interestingly, I have not found an option to turn these off. Even when I turn the key backlights off (Fn+backspace) these accent RGB lights stay on. This doesn't bother me much though.The power switch for this keyboard is under the caps lock key. This means that just to toggle the keyboards power, you need a keycap puller. To use the keyboard in wired mode, power can be off. This is personally a non-issue for me as I just use this keyboard in wired mode. I'm not going to be traveling with this 5 and a half pound keyboard, so I personally don't have a reason to use the switch ever.One other thing this has that the rainy doesn't is a spot on the keyboard to store the wireless USB dongle. On the Crush 80, there's a little magnetic "hatch". If you remove the little cover, you'll see a spot to store the dongle. The rainy 75 has nowhere to store the dongle, meaning you will need to keep track of it.As far as sound and feel go, it's been an absolute privilege to type on this keyboard. It's marbly and creamy. The stock experience out of the box is wonderful. The keyboard is very loud though. I don't think this would be appropriate for an office setting at. With this being a hotswap board though, it's easy to change out the switches for something quieter.The Crush 80 also comes with more accessories than the Rainy 75. You get a solid, premium-feeling case, a microfiber keyboard sleeve, a decent braided (non-coiled) USB-c cable, and an average keycap/switch puller. You also get parts like extra switches, extra rubber feet, extra gaskets and screws. They even provide an aluminum plate in case you want to swap out the FR4 plate, and they include additional poron foam that you can put in the keyboard.The Rainy 75 is still a very well-designed and functional keyboard, but I think that the Crush 80 is a better value with its features and included accessories. At the time of this review, the Crush80 Reboot Pro is only $21 more than the Rainy75 Pro. The crush 80 is even less expensive from other vendors, but buying from Amazon provides that peace of mind when it comes to delivery and returns. Wobkey themselves (The manufacturer of this and the Rainy75) do not have the best track record so being able to order this through Amazon is really nice.

The heavy and tactile keyboard. I used Varmilo VA 87Mac before and now use Lofree Flow for work. This one is for gaming. It didn’t work wired from the box, so I disassembled it and reattached the flex-connector. I won’t lower the rating because of the very convenient "catch ball" mechanism. However, I would like to see keycaps with a better quality

Having gone through more than a few mechanical keyboards that did not live up to my admittedly high standards, I have finally decided to take the plunge and get this highly-acclaimed keyboard. Its reputation is richly deserved - the build quality and the quality of metal finishing is absolutely spectacular in comparison to other aluminum keyboards in $150-$200 range. I know this keyboard is more expensive than those boards, but it is fairly obvious that the quality control on it is much higher than that of its competitors.In terms of actual functionality, RGB is perfect, switches sound and feel amazing and are medium-weight linears which I personally enjoy a lot. Stabilizers are lubricated properly. Keycaps are dualshot PBT with sharp legends and feel fairly smooth to touch - I do prefer slightly more coarse surface of dye-sub PBT keycaps, but the legends on those are not as sharp. Wifi performance is flawless, but I personally use it in purely wired mode, so I simply disconnected both batteries. The packaging is also spectacular as the keyboard comes in its own carry zippered case inside a carboard box. Extra switches gaskets and other trinkets are included. Crush 80 is also toolfree disassembly and is super easy to mod. The only exception is the battery compartment which has 6 screws that are large and made of very strong metal, so they are not easy to strip.If you are a mechanical keyboard connoisseur, this keyboard is worth is massive weight in gold. It will save you a lot of time and headache in the long run.

At first, after watching many reviews online and many videos, I thought it would be too loud as it was in the videos, but in reality, it was incredibly smooth and well-built and it's so easy to disassemble and make some customization if you're the kind to change the foams or the switches, while reading through the reviews I haven't seen anyone comment on the carry-on case that comes with it and I think this is one of the best keyboards for this price. If you're gonna buy it go for it.
