keyboards you would have heard of NY the

way I heard about it was reading a

comment try the newy you idiot on my

lowf free flow keyboard video so I

bought it the next day and here it is I

even got the this thing for it cuz this

looks so cool online and it's actually

cool in real life right off the bat

here's what differentiates NY from the

rest NY makes you feel freaking good

from the website buying experience to

the

unboxing and these little additional

things they give you so funky bro like

anime stickers this bag badge thing a

cat key come on bro who else does this

also I think it looks pretty good too

with this two-tone color with a pop of

orange and and red I like it I like how

it looks actually let's take this to my

wife and just see what she prefers in

terms of just

looks honey can I get your opinion on

something real quick what do you what do

you think is prettier I'll go with this

one this pretty cool it's transparent

this is this is very cute oh I like this

keep I'm going to give to you guys okay

so stick around to the end just like

subscribe comment and that's all you got

to do and I'll choose a I'll make a bot

find a

winner whilst the NY does a lot to make

you feel good with these like free stuff

my beloved lowf free flow doesn't make

you feel the same way with the whole

unboxing in fact you get Jack crap out

of the box but the key caps and the

keyboard itself feels much more

substantial metal little Parts

everywhere smooth ass thuck

Galore bro it's got thuck even when it's

not on the table like in midair look at

that holy moly and so here's my first

impressions of the newy typing

experience right out of the box we've

got this thing newy did not send this to

me newy if you're watching send me

something what is this what the freak is

this

the Loy

feel five times better than this in

terms of feel in terms of looks I prefer

this look let's give this thing a shot

for the next 30 days also and see what

it's like to live with I'll either give

away this or this they're both brilliant

and this test is going to be much harder

and I feel like I need to live with it

for at least 30 days to to really make

make my judgment on this because I'm

still in love with just the Aesthetics

and the the feel and the free stuff that

they've given me I used this thing a lot

I used it to type scripts edit videos

photos and just

[Applause]

therapy something about these mechanical

keyboards that just feels good so I know

it doesn't directly impact productivity

but kind of does cuz they're so

enjoyable to type on oh wo w w now once

you get used to Mechanical keyboards you

don't want to use anything else like

those membrane o I used it at the studio

on the dinner table at random cafes I

even hooked up my phone with deck with a

portable monitor and this keyboard and

fell in love with the newy folio case

thing all right so I am itching to know

with every new keyboard I want to know

how fast can I type on

it I got 102 words per minute with about

91% accuracy that's pretty good that's

up there with my low free flow but let

me try two more times and see if I can

beat this score

okay 102 words per minute second time

you know what I want to try the low-f

free

[Applause]

flow

105 words per minute bred Force

productivity this is it but there are

some things about this keyboard that I

love for example software support newy

finally has qmk and Via support I didn't

even know what that was until someone

commented on my keyron video not a

single mission of the qmk and Via

support I'm like what the hell is that

so I looked that up turns out this thing

had it Lowrey doesn't have it and so I

checked it out

and

boy it's good so when I press this

button check this out do you see that it

just typed in command space typed in

notion and then pressed enter press this

button notion calendar boom it opens

notion calendar just press this button

opens Chrome pretty cool no keep using

this keyboard for the next 30 days and

see how we go I'm doing an experiment

where I'm literally replacing my laptop

with a phone yeah my monitor does come

with a keyboard but I paid for this

pretty ass case so I I need to put it to

use right I'm still not completely

full-time like financially on YouTube

but um I think we're going to get there

we need to get there if we get there we

can accelerate our impact together even

quicker look I'm not going to lie

setting up this folio case and keyboard

is a bit of a fa but once you do set it

up it feels surreal having a mechanical

experience

whilst out in the wild and it actually

made me feel like I was getting more

work done than I actually was and it's

overpowered by this by the way

wirelessly it's nice mate having a

proper keyboard makes you work longer

makes you feel better when you're

working yeah I'm going back to the

studio and finishing off this video

you're watching guys guys guys I have

some exciting news I reached out to my

friends over at newy and asked if I

could get the smaller version the the

nuffy a60 V2 and um they said no so I

was like F you I'm just going to buy it

so I bought it look how cute this thing

is waa sugar jeez anyway um huh I

accidentally threw the keyboard she saw

my keyboard and she's like that's so

cool I wish it was

smaller little one big ass one like this

is my phone okay look at that this is

technically my wife's whoa but I'm going

to use it for my review purposes because

how cool would it be if I could take oh

got a mad scratch on it my wife prefers

the clicky clacky switches so I got her

these she has no idea that you can

change switches on here she's never done

switch switching before so let's

actually do a switch switching session

for her keyboard this is her first

mechanical keyboard ever but she prefers

tactile switches you can also change the

Caps if you don't like the colors

whatever you oh really yeah and then you

hold the

keyboard you pull out the key okay it's

just like I really like

that feel MH that's why it's called

tactile

not wife took about 15 minutes to do her

first switch switching from Wisteria

linear switches to her favorite blue

tactile switches how does your new

keyboard feel I love it ooh feel like

I'm working so

hard that's so cute look at that my wife

made her own design products that she's

putting on cups and whatever and she

actually used the newy keyboard as her

[Music]

inspiration Mia I have a question for

you

no do you want Lowrey flow or do you

want

noofy

noofy you want nofy okay then take it

that's

yours the world's first baby

stist

see even baby prefers this it feels

better I'm telling you I've decided to

create a review database of mechanical

keyboards called not a keyboard guys

ratings keep in mind I've only tried

four mechanical keyboards and they're

all low

profiles Let's uh start off with the

keyron K3 and what rating that gets a

total score of 33 MX Keys only just

edges out the Kyron K3 with only 36

points low free flow let's go 50 out of

60 that's very high man and that's why I

chucked every keyboard in the bin and

kept this so let's see which keyboard

we're going to give away because I have

raided the

newy this is exciting okay the design I

gave

it a solid nine brand Vibes definitely

at n no you know what I'm going to I'm

going to increase it I'm going to give

it a 10 like I haven't seen a keyboard

with better brand Vibes than this this

is like it just makes you feel so good

build quality seven typing speed Eight

Features 10 th

level like listen to

this compared to

this so yeah th level I give it a a four

so you tally that up and that gives it a

score of 48 and I'm so sad

because I want to

keep this um I need to get my hands on a

high-profile keyboard don't I by the way

the guys over at Kyron actually

approached me again and said hey we saw

your video about our keyboard it sucks

bus and they said we would love for you

to try our flagship keyboard and it was

a high-profile keyboard so I might

actually take that offer to see what

this whole high-profile thing is about

lucky you if you've been rooting for the

newy because I am going to give you not

only this but I will also give you my

beloved folo case as well this stuff is

expensive uh all you got to do is like
