Product Description

The Ducky Shiba Says One 2 is a full-size mechanical keyboard designed for users who want a distinctive aesthetic combined with reliable typing performance. It suits typists and gamers who prefer a standard ANSI layout with RGB lighting and Cherry MX switches. The keyboard is not hot-swappable, so it is better for users who do not plan to frequently change switches. Its unique keycap design and adjustable stance appeal to those who value both form and function.

Key Features

  • Detachable USB-C cable allows easy transport and cable replacement.
  • RGB LED backlighting provides customizable illumination for low-light environments.
  • Side-printed Mandarin phonetic symbols add bilingual usability without obscuring legends.
  • Includes 12 unique Shiba Says R4 profile keycaps and 2 collectible stickers for personalization.
  • Two-step kickstand offers adjustable typing angles for ergonomic comfort.

Build Quality

  • Plastic top and bottom case keep the keyboard lightweight but may feel less solid than metal alternatives.
  • Plate-mounted Cherry MX switches ensure stable keypresses and consistent feedback.
  • PBT dye-sublimated keycaps resist shine and fading over time.

Typing Experience

  • Available with various Cherry MX switches, including tactile (Brown), clicky (Blue), linear (Red, Silver), and silent options, catering to different typing preferences.
  • North-facing switch orientation affects RGB lighting direction and keycap compatibility.
  • MDA profile keycaps provide a sculpted, uniform key shape that some users find comfortable for extended typing.

Compatibility

  • ANSI layout with US QWERTY logical layout suits most English-language users.
  • Compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux operating systems via USB-C connection.

Trade-offs

  • No hot-swappable switches limit customization for users who want to experiment with different switch types.
  • Plastic construction may not offer the durability or premium feel of metal cases.
  • Lacks built-in audio or microphone ports, which may be inconvenient for some setups.
