My havit KB395L died. It was cheapish, but great for me. I should have bought 3, because they don't make it anymore.

I bought a Red Dragon Horus (k618rgp-pro) with red switches as a replacement. The form factor is fine, and I like the wireless, but the keys feel mushy and I make typos constantly.

So, now I'm looking for something with:

  • Low Profile
  • Blue switches
  • Tactile (feel the bump on a key press)
  • Full size (I guess I could go ten keyless)
  • Backlight Bonus features:
  • Wireless
  • Hot swappable switches

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the great write up. I'll take a look at these. I've read a few reviews about keychrons having defective keys, etc. Any issues there?

That's where I was leaning towards, but I haven't ever used one.

I have 4 Keychron's and have not had any mechanical issues, though I did have a missing foam layer in my Q0 Plus that was indicated as being part on the website. I did not care enough to follow up on it.

I find their QA good enough for the price point.
