Lily58 Cherry / MX

I have been looking for a trackball integrated keyboard for a long time and discovered that keyball keyboards had a seamingly brillant way to provide this combination in a very convenient from factor.

Parts are premium quality and final product is awesome. Since it was my first time with this kind of keyboard, Holykeebs did also a great job with a very clean soldering and answered all my questions with the kindest patience to help me with my mistakes.

Bought a keyball39 that had a 3D printer filament casing for the trackball, and it wasn't very good.

This ball case, being resin printed, has a much better shape and feel and the ceramic bearings are amazing, making the ball rotate almost perfectly with very little stuckness like the metallic bearings tend to do.

I never really thought I’d have a need for these until I went to use my keyboard in the same room as my wife and she made me stop until she’d grabbed some headphones. I tried the nocturnals and the twilights - both are great, but I’ll use the twilights for thumb keys and nocturnal everywhere else.

Super nice.

Super nice.

From helping me chose some options, to fast and quality build to a very good and swift after-sale service ; everything went perfect !
Highly recommend their services.

not completely clear, but great product

it's awesome!

As a programmer who previously relied on an MX Ergo and a Logitech ergonomic keyboard, I can confidently say that the Keyball61 has been a game-changer for me.

My absolute favorite feature is not having to move my hands off the keyboard while working. This seamless workflow has significantly boosted my efficiency. While there was a short adjustment period for my hands to get used to the new position and avoid accidentally nudging the trackball, it's now second nature.

The thing that truly sets the Keyball61 apart is its incredible customizability. The integrated remap-keys.app support for modifying keymaps is incredibly easy to use, allowing me to tailor my layout precisely to my needs without any hassle. This, combined with the power of QMK firmware and my own customized Miryoku-based keymap, creates an amazing and efficient typing experience.

Furthermore, the support from Idan at Holykeebs has been exceptionally responsive and helpful throughout my journey with the Keyball61.

While the biggest learning curve for me was adapting to the Keyball61's unique key staggering and diving into more advanced keymap configurations, if you're already accustomed to an ortholinear keyboard, integrating the trackball will likely be a breeze.

I highly recommend the Keyball61 to anyone looking to enhance their ergonomic setup, streamline their workflow, and enjoy unparalleled customization!

I would appreciate instructions as to how acrylic plates should be mounted.

Got this board as my first split keyboard and I couldn't be happier. Service is excellent, I ordered the pre soldered version and everything was greatly done. The OLED display got damaged in shipping unfortunately, but I was able to get a refund for its cost easily. The TPS43 trackpad is nice, but not as precise as a good laptop trackpad, the scrolling especially is not great, either too fast or too slow depending on the buffer amount. Maybe that can be fixed in future firmware updates though.

Overall, very happy with my purchase!

Title says it all! QMK is easy to work with (using VIA) and the build feels very solid. My biggest problem is coming up with a keyboard mapping that is more or less consistent between my Corne and my Lily58 wireless (pesky extra keys).

I got this presoldered (not assymbled) and the solder job on this board looks fantastic! The 3d printed case is simple and nice, and assymbly was simple. My only gripe is that the firmware that it shipped with was setup to have the right board as the master, so I had to flash it myself, which was a difficult process to figure out because the micro controllers used aren't well documented by QMK, but that's not inherently this product's fault. I've been having fun making all sorts of weird layers and layouts. Will definitely recommend their services to anyone that's shopping around
