I've had a cooler master keyboard with cherry mx browns (my first mech) for a few years but looking for a change.

They seem really popular so I'll check them out. Thanks!

you're very welcome. they're probably the most solidly built boards that are readily available not through a group buy. Nuphy are good too but the Q-series of boards are great quality for the price. If you want customization for a lower price though, their v-series are good too I hear.

Keychrons are great. If you want some other brands to look at there is also Akko/Monsgeek. Mikit and Iqunix are decent too with quirky designs if you want something different.

I'll look into this. The fact that it's USBC would be nice since I have to use micro USB right now haha. Do they include basic keycaps or I'm guessing you have to pick the ones you want separately? Thank you for the suggestion!

Pretty sure you’ll have to provide your own caps.

I’m a big fan of Ducky and quite a few of theirs fall into that category. My current daily is a Mecha Mini 2 with silent reds. It’s been a great keyboard for several years now.

Had this for a few years and love it. Use it at work and at home.

I got a keydous nj80 for 150 bucks and its fantastic.

Very nice selection of pre lubed switches, optional brass or steel weight, all assembled and ready
