DROP DCX vs GMK vs PBTFans | Cycle7, Arc60, Envoy

Hi, it was rainy night, so you might hear it a bit on background, sorry for that.

*Envoy is not my, friend give it to me to try it out, and there probably not going to be any more sound tests with this board.

I used DCX keycaps on my Arc60 for a few days for now and here are the conclusions that I came up with so far:

They are smooth, literally, and gets fat from your fingers reaaally fast, I can't say that it's bad, but definitely unique feel for sure. The index bars slightly higher than GMK, it's kinda annoying tbh.

Sounds wise, they are most close to GMK from all ABS Doubleshots that I tried, curious to try also Keykobo. I believe PBTFans uses actually a mix of some other plastics, like PC, to achieve the transparency, because between these 3 - they are the deepest, it's especially sounds bad on mods with plastic plates.

By sound (deeper first): PBTFans - DCX - GMK
By surface roughness (smoother first): DCX - GMK - PBTFans

Also, the straightest spacebars I have ever seen, lol.

Full HHKB support, which means x2 1.5u Supers and x2 1u Alts on bottom row, as well as Pipe-Backspace and Caps-Control, love it, no need to buy any separate kits or novelties to do not make your bottom row look ugly. No 6u spacebar to make it 100% real HHKB compatible, but bruh, who uses 6u spacebar for real.

I guess that's it, if there is gonna be another DROP BOGO on DCX keycaps, I most probably consider grabbing some more of them, DCX 9009 looks good tbf.
