According to the official Drop website, pre-orders for the YMDK SPLIT 84 BAREBONES KEYBOARD have begun.
Pre-orders are scheduled to end on April 20, 2023 Japan time, with an estimated ship date of July 14, 2023, for the relatively inexpensive price of $139.


The GB on the official YMDK website has already ended, so if you did not make it, don’t miss it.
As for the split keyboard, it was very much talked about with the release of the Keychron Q11, and since this model is less expensive than the Q11 barebone kit ($185.00), it seems like an easy purchase.
