Review: Solid investment , Great Build quality! - Personal owner of both the Drop Shift and Drop Ctrl keyboards bought both with Halo True 65g tactile switches . I have been the owner of 2 Corsair high end keyboards over the years and and 1 Razer when i first purchased a mechanical many years ago and have had to luxury to test many mech keyboards and can say these are amongst my favorite in build quality . They also present hot swap like alot of keyboards on the market now , but this is my top pick for hotswap unless you are looking to build one yourself. They are heavy duty built well sounds great , stabilizers are pretty decent quality right out of box as are switches . It is driver less and controlled via QMK firmware RGB is as well and that is on the lacking side out of box but from i her can be modified in the Drop configuration/compiler for QMK on the Drop website and only on the Drop website , but RGB isn't a priority for me so I cannot verify. Overall I would highly recommend this over other hot swap keyboards on the market if you are looking to just buy one pre assembled , the Shift , ATL and Ctrl are all solid keyboards and Drop has parts available if you ever need to replace them or want to customize them making it a strong investment.
Review: Good, but not great straight out of the box. - I like this keyboard. In fact, I'm typing on it right now. The 1800 layout is unique and is more compact than a full size keyboard while still preserving the numpad, which is something I can't live without as I use it a lot for work. The SHIFT is incredibly well-built. Out of the dozens of keyboards I own, this is by far the most solid-feeling of them all. The diffuse RGB around the edge of the board is a nice touch and the RGB can be turned on for only the keys, the keys and the edge, edge only, or completely off. The keyboard only comes with a limited amount of pre-programmed RGB settings. There are probably options to customize the lighting, but I haven't tried as it's not a big deal for me. The reason I gave four stars instead of five is that for this price I found the quality of the keycaps and the keyswitches (Halo Clear) a little lacking. The switches were among the loudest, most ping-y switches I have used. I have switched them out for Glorious Pandas. The Halo Clear switches do feel and sound a ton better after lubing, but I haven't tired them with this keyboard. The keycaps that came with the board look good but feel like cheap plastic. I quickly upgraded to a higher-quality PBT set. These two upgrades cost almost exactly as much as the initial cost of this board. These upgrades aren't necessary, of course, but just something to consider. I would recommend this keyboard in general, but only to those who are comfortable with spending anywhere from $270 to $500+ on a keyboard. Buy it.

## Features

- INTRODUCING OUR FIRST FULL-SIZE KEYBOARD: The Drop SHIFT is our largest and most ambitious undertaking yet. Done in the compact 1800 layout, it’s still significantly shorter than a traditional full-size keyboard, which frees up desk space for other gear while still including a number pad.
- HEFTY ALUMINUM FRAME, PREMIUM MATERIALS: Heavy enough to stay put when you're cranking out an email or locked into an intense FPS match, the frame has a low profile to complement your desktop. Known for its toughness and ability to hold a finish, anodized aluminum plays a starring role.
- KAIHUA SPEED SILVER SWITCHES: Utilizing the popular Cherry MX form, these speedy linear switches are made with 3.5 millimeters of total travel with 1.1–1.4 millimeters of pre-travel. They’re easy to press and boast a 70-million lifetime click rating.
- HOT-SWAPPABLE SWITCH FUNCTIONALITY. Want to switch your switches? Customize the SHIFT with ease thanks to hot-swappable switch sockets, which allow you to swap switches in seconds—no soldering required.
- OPTIMIZED PER-KEY LIGHTING WITH MILLIONS OF COLORS: The SHIFT is illuminated with fully customizable RGB backlighting and under-lighting. Set your millions of LEDs to a single color or light them up with custom rainbow wave patterns.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better off getting other switches
*by H***I on July 12, 2021*

This is one of the few hotswappable 1800 layout available. The keyboard itself is nicely built, however lack of weight itself makes it just miss the premium feel part. The switches are nothing to write home about, I switched them for lubed C3 tangerines after about 10 minutes. Pretty pricey for what you get, but in this hobby. This is a bargain price keyboard One major issue with this is USB-C cable compatibility. Unless using the supplied cable, the keyboard would randomly turn off and has to be disconnect reconnect to work again.
