HyperX x Ducky One 2 Mini Mechanical Keyboard Review

Image credit: HyperX

Ducky is a brand I've had my eye on previously, and I was very interested in trying one out for myself (particularly after watching this incredibly-well produced Hardware Canucks video and reading this Rtings review).

At $109.99 this is not an insignificant purchase, but that price is close to the lowest-cost Ducky One 2 Mini designs (they start at $99 from MechanicalKeyboards), and these can actually sell for quite a bit more depending on the edition, color scheme, and of course where you live/shop. 60% keyboards are not for everyone, and if you're shopping for this form-factor you probably already used to enthusiast-level price tags.

And finally, while I was a little thrown by the lack of software control with the HyperX x Ducky One 2 Mini, this could just as easily be a selling point to users who prefer on-keyboard control.

I found the overall quality and feel of the HyperX x Ducky One 2 Mini to be well above average, manufacturing issues with the bottom edges of the alternate key caps notwithstanding. In the end I found the feel – and sound – of this keyboard to be, well, addictive. I want to use this keyboard even though my usage patterns are better suited to a larger layout with arrow keys (not to mention a numpad). It's that good.

Games: PC Engine Mini is gaming's latest dinky do-over

Image
PC Engine Mini By: Konami WITH the heirs to Microsoft and Sony's hardware now revealed, it appears the next generation of gaming will see what looks like a mini-fridge battle a giant Wi-Fi router. But there was once a time when the most powerful console on the block was positively tiny, and following the success of the SNES and Mega Drive Mini, the latest dinky do-over resurrects this curio from Eastern climes. While the great unwashed frolicked with their Super Nintendos and Mega Drives, a loyal band of Japanophiles sought out more exotic meats. The arcade-perfect Neo Geo was undoubtedly the Rolls-Royce of consoles, but in early 90s Northern Ireland you could buy a house for less. There was a third way, however, in the diminutive form of the PC Engine from Japanese giant NEC. An 8-bit machine jacked with 16-bit graphics chips, the palm-sized underdog outsold even the NES in its native Japan, with those powerful guts giving its impressive...
