For day-to-day stuff — browsing, writing, or general work — the NaughShark NS68 felt totally fine to use. The 68-key layout retains the arrow keys while remaining compact, and since it follows a standard layout, there’s essentially no learning curve. The Fn shortcuts for the missing keys (like the F-row) are straightforward, and you can tweak them in the software if you want.

This is an amazing Halifax budget keyboard and I really enjoy it after typing on it. So, I'm going to give you the full review video and this is something that's also cool that is coming in a lot of different keyboards nowadays. It's just really cool to see the design and the logo. But this keyboard is, like I said, a 65% layout.

The Gamakay x NaughShark NS68 is noticeably a cheaper keyboard in feel, but those internals truly are phenomenal. Rapid trigger will be key here for counter-strafing in CS2 or Valorant—honestly, since switching to Hall effect, I notice a massive difference in my ability to counter-strafe whenever I go back to mechanical.

My name is Yia and today I have a new keyboard super budget super high performance from N Shark and Gamma K. Okay, so today we have NS68 which means it's 68% mechanical keyboard with magnetic switches and whole effect sensors. 68% means that we have arrow keys. We have we don't have a function row but we have additional page up and page down home and uh end on the right side.

Overall, my first impressions is it looks pretty nice. Obviously, it's just got that standard wooting look, that whole hall effect keyboard look. Um, but it looks really nice. I do like the little logo on the bottom here. So, let's talk about some of the details and the specifications of this keyboard.

The Gamma KX Noshark NS68. Very small form factor. take some design inspiration after booting as most of the keyboards in this price range do. Shockingly, for this price, it is tri mode. Obviously, it does track fingerprints pretty badly here, but that doesn't really matter to me on a keyboard. Has some support feet.

Typing on the NS-68 actually feels better than I expected at this price. The switches are smooth, and while the stabilizers aren't screwins, they are decent and don't rattle too much. Here's a quick sound test so you can hear it for yourself. Not bad at all, especially considering this is aimed more at gaming. Although, I would have liked to have seen a bit more foam to remove some of the hollowes

One of the areas the Gamakay lacks is its software. Perhaps one of the single biggest flaws in most great keyboards. It works fine, but it isn't the cleanest-looking software, and the UI could benefit from a great deal more polish.

Because it's a keyboard that's been designed to be affordable , the typing feel is a bit cheap, but for those on a budget, it's definitely an option. We'll now introduce each feature in detail, so be sure to watch until the end! First, let's try typing. There is a sound of keys reverberating inside the case.

Don't buy if. ❌ You want a high-quality case and top-notch typing feel: The Gamakay is a lot of things, but high quality in terms of the materials, it is not.

I'm personally not a fan of it, but there are many people who really enjoy it. We still have the K Shrek logo on it here . No idea. And here's the part on the side where the tape goes in. The design looks relatively copied from the Rooting board, except that it's a 65% board and the side is closed off instead of being open on the Rooting board, so it's basically just a kind of barrier.

I liked the look of it, the design was clean, and the house turned out surprisingly solid. It didn't crackle or crunch, even though I worked it properly. The bottom of the case is not overly complicated, with the NS logo in the middle and anti-slip rubber feet in the four corners.

It is being produced by Gama Kay for a company called Now Shark. If I butchered that, I apologize, but they do have a wireless version of this board, and I would just keep your eyes on the wired cuz I wouldn't confidently use the wireless for anything competitive.
