In this video I build and take a first deep look at the Zoom65 V3, and yeah—this thing is kind of insane for what it’s trying to be. I go through the unboxing, what’s in the kit, and the overall design direction Meletrix is going for: clean, modern, and very “premium-feeling” without needing a bunch of extra work to get it there. I also talk through the parts and options you’ll care about if you’re actually building one—switch choice, how the board feels during the build, and what stands out immediately in terms of quality. After the build, I focus on the stuff that matters once it’s on the desk: typing feel, sound (yes, the thock potential is real), and how the board performs as an all-around daily driver. I also touch on RGB and programmability so you know what you can tweak after you’re done building. If you’re deciding whether to upgrade to the V3 or you’re new to customs and want a safe “it’ll probably just be good” 65%, this video is basically my full walkthrough of why the Zoom65 V3 is such a standout option right now.
