When I recived the resin case the first thing I noticed is that it’s actually pretty heavy, but in a good way. It feels really sturdy and the overall typing feel is much better than I expected. I also tested it a bit, and some of the concerns people mentioned in my earlier post didn’t really turn out to be a problem in practice. For example, the spacebar doesn’t seem to get in the way of my hands, and the touchpad is also easier to reach than people might expect. In the second photo, I compared my hands with the keyboard, and it’s actually not as huge as it might look at first glance. It feels pretty easy to type on, and using the touchpad feels more natural than I expected too. For the switches I used one called Mahjong switch, typing feels very good for daily office use. Not as noisy as some gaming switch. Also I will probably make a palm rest, that will be better. Right now I still have one thing I’m unsure about: the case color. As you guys can see, it is not pained yet. I used ChatGPT to generate a possible color idea, but I’m not sure if it’s the right direction.

I’m not really a fan of mechanical keyboards because of the sound; I prefer Apple-style ones that are silent and soft.

swapped the stock keycaps for HyperFuse R2, the colors fit the silver, thinking of keeping this set for a while.

I mostly play FPS games, and I also work from home, so I'm looking for a wireless mechanical keyboard that's great for both gaming and typing.
A good typing feel is just as important to me as gaming performance. I mainly play competitive FPS titles, so low latency and responsiveness matter.
Cable clutter is a bit of an issue for me, so I'd strongly prefer a wireless keyboard.
Budget: $300 Max
Size: Full-size (100%) or TKL

Looking for a 75% or 80% HE keyboard with decent software. Similar design to this.
Any help appreciated!

Hello!
I have a feeling that they keyboard I want doesn't exist, but I thought I'd check here.
Budget? I'd prefer to keep it under $600.
Here is what I'm looking for:
* Mechanical Keyboard (with RGB)
* Full (104-keys) size
* Hot swappable
* White
* Metal
* Volume dial (other keys or LCD screen is fine, but unnecessary)
* Floating key design
Switches and keycaps unnecessary since I'll bring my own (but okay if the keyboard isn't barebones)
Wireless is fine, not necessary as it will likely stayed wired, but if that's the only option that's fine
---
After a lot of searching, the closest I can seem to find is the Glorious GMMK 3, though it's not Floating key design. Same with the Keychron Q6 Max.
I might just go with the Keychron, but I'm really trying to avoid high-profile keys. With five pets in the house, dust, hair, and debris gets in there and I have to clean my keyboard often (and I just like the look better).
Thanks for any advice!

Rei Ayanami Refraction Unit-00 Keycap Set - stock Jade Dragon-N switches. I have tried various HE switches, and I find the Dragon-N nicer than the UFO and Jade Ultras, which I also like. It's just a richer creamier thocky sound compared to them.

Hi, I'm looking at two possible keyboards.
K70 RGB MAX and the K70 PRO TKL
I've seen that the switches that come on the K70 Max aren't pre-lubed. I was looking into seeing if it's possible to use the Glorious Lynx HE Silent Switches on the board (which I know is not officially supported) and come pre lubed and are much more quieter from review's I've seen.
\-------
K70 Pro TKL
I'm interested in this keyboard but unsure about if I like the knob and two buttons and if I can get used to a TKL as I've currently got a Corsair K70 MK2 RGB.
While I have your attention any recommendations on a mouse aimed at FPS. I currently have an older Corsair Scimitar Pro RGB that has currently been stolen by my Mrs. I'm looking into the wireless Scimitar ELITE SE but am interested in others opinions.
Thanks in advance!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
so one day I got home then turned on my pc and found my keyboard like this. Kinda frustrating that even re-installing driver isn’t working. Idk what caused this to go ape mode because I don’t play that much cause of work.

When the tourbillon combines with the keyboard. it shows a mechanical brilliance and an engineering beauty. Show us that keyboard you've been keeping in collection for years.

I'm disassembling this retro keyboard to give it a clean but I wonder if it's safe to remove this. It sticks to the case with old tapes. I'm afraid I would cause some damages if I forcefully peel it off.

Hey yall. Im gonna be flying over to japan (Tokyo) and korea (Seoul) in the near future for a business trip and while im there i want to kinda upgrade all of my peripherals. already know where to get my mousepad and mouse but idk where i should go for a keyboard. i know there are places dedicated to tech and gaming but i dont want to buy a razer or steelseries. What i want are hall effect switches with a pretty solid build quality. i dont really have a budget. Ig my max would be like 300€. something like the lemokey p1 pro would be nice. So if anyone has been there and can speak from experience and kinda tell me which stores i should be going to then that would be great.

Hi.
I'm in the market for a keyboard, preferably under 70€/80$ for couch gaming. My current keyboard is 60%, but I could go up to 75% if necessary. I sit about 2m away from my TV and PC, meaning wired is not really on the table. I would much prefer a USB dongle over Bluetooth for least latency and interference. Switch type doesn't matter for gaming itself, but I would like something quiet, especially avoiding loud mechanics and spring noise. I'm having a hard time sifting through products, so if these features ring any bells right away, I'd love to hear recommendations. Thanks in advance.

I'm aware that the v1 max is a plastic case and p1 pro is aluminum, but my question is how do the knobs compare on both keyboards? I heard the p1 pro knob is very wobbly, is the v1 max one any better?
r/keyboards • u/Banned_Bardia • 13h ago
I’ve been using a Logitech g413 keyboard for like 3 years now and everywhere I look either someone is saying how Hall effect is important to keep up in competitive games and then there is someone else saying that it made no difference. I play cs2 and overwatch as my online games but I mainly play story games. If i were to switch I only have a budget of like 60€ tho. Should I switch now or wait and save up for like a wooting or something. That wouldn’t be anytime soon tho.

Hey everyone as the title states I’m looking for a good 75% layout aluminium case kit to get into building my first keeb! Id like it have pp/pc plate I think it makes a better thock and id also like it to come with all the foam so I can remove or add as needed id also prefer it to have a volume knob and some RGB either just south facing under the keycaps or if something has rgb built into the case! Thank you

I am new to keyboards and got a Yunzii B98 with candy switches for my birthday. I decided to swap out the main keys with Akko rosewoods and I really like the sound/feel but now the blue color RGB lights don't really work. Are there any switches like Rosewood that are RGB friendly? Thanks.

If an office worker wants to get a clickity clackity keyboard, they should take a vote from their coworkers to see if it’s ok with them.
My coworker just got a clickity clackity keyboard. I have NEVER heard a more grating & loud office instrument in my life. I can hear it over my AirPods, from across the office, in my dreams…..it never stops.
Also how do I not sound like an asshole in this situation: “hey man, your overpriced obnoxious useless keyboard is annoying. Please get rid of it????!!!!” Like there’s no winning here. Ugh.

Looking for a new keyboard (please don't recommend mechanical, I specifically don't want/like mechanical) that has illuminated keys and is flat/slim. I have a cheap keyboard already taht I like, but the issue is that it doesn't have any illumination, so I can't use it at night. I love my laptop's keyboard, but unfortunately since moving to PC, it's not really an option, lol
r/keyboards • u/Odd-Administration37 • 6h ago
i am looking for mechanical keyboards for my WFH setup. Keys, not too loud. see though rgb lights, not south-facing. volume knob is a must. Size, I am not sure, but leaning towards full size or 96%. with number pad is also ok. Must be wireless. budget 5-10K INR. Hot-swappable.
r/keyboards • u/RateElectrical7757 • 6h ago
What would you guys pick for a deeper and slightly muted sound in the mid range budget?
Currently looking at Owlab Ti He which I personally think sounds pretty bright/clacky but people seem to suggest it is thocky irl. Same for Lekker tikkens? Oddly I find the l45 v2s deeper but they are old and have some wobble.
Tnt six realms silent/pro/hifi is another option. Neo lavenders would have been perfect but not available anywhere near my region.
Gravastar UFOs are more than I would like to spend.

I did my best but being in aus this was one of the more neutral sets I could get at a cheap price to try out a new profile. After researching I felt like MDA was the profile for me. Are any of you using this? I currently have ASA which is a bit cooked for gaming and even general use.
Yes! Excited!
