Hex80

In my opinion, both of these are kind of niche and best when it comes to 75% keyboards. There is simply no better option out there right now. I know that Everglide is planning to release su80 (tkl) keyboard like su75 but with newer MCU and etc etc, the date of release is still unknown so I wouldn't

Coming from somebody who owns all the keebs I’m about to mention, consider the following. The Wooting 60he v2 is great, but I hated the stock switches and didn’t start enjoying the board until I swapped the stock Lekken switches with geon raptor v2’s. I had a much better stock experience from the AT

In most cases, magnetic boards will be louder, so you're going to swap with silent switches, which can feel quite mushy. I'd get some good prebuilt like Everglide SU75PRO / Chilkey Slice75 HE / ATK HEX80 and swap switches with TNT Six Realms Silent (they shouldn't feel as mushy and use almost the sa

ATK HEX80, Weikav K-ONE 80 (might be discontinued, can't find it for a reasonable price anymore), but they don't perform as good (nothing really noticeable IRL though). There's also RAKKA 80, but imo it's overpriced as hell.

I spent about 3 weeks researching after going down the rabbit hole. Here's the gist of it. I prefer exploded 75 or 80/TKL boards. Software and firmware seem to be very iffy on the Chinese boards, there a few that come close like Nuphy, but at 100 bucks more (WH80). Rongyuan PCBS are the worst and an

Ok so you gotta mostly pick between HE or a good sounding board on the sub 3k price point. The elecfox Linky87 works nice but it isn't HE. The one that best fits your needs is an ATK Hex80 or a Wooting80HE if you need both HE and good sound. Akko Mod007HE is a good option but its a 75.

I have everything on this list and what I prefer above all of those is the QK x ATK Hex80. Spent around ~150k on HE keebs alone including GB limited ones and I think Hex80 is the perfect combination of custom keyboard feel with very good HE functionality. OP you can get the hex80 for 9k on shopee rn

so Mechanical keyboards take in only mechanical switches, HE keyboards take in just magnetic switches. TMR takes both so you can have something like WASD on HE with the rest being mechanical. For around that price point, I really wanna say ATK Hex80 but I think your boyfriend will like the Akko Mod0

None of the ones mentioned are good. Wooting is passable, and has a larger community, but the price isn't justifiable compared to other options. However if you want warranty, and don't mind paying extra for worse performance, they are much better than Keychron or Akko, which are pretty much bottom t

QK x Atk Hex80, Chillkey Slice75, Wooting 60HE v2/80HE, Wormier SK75, Neo65 Sonic HE+, Everglide SU75 Pro all better options at various price points. Monsgeek Fun60 clears all as well on a budget.
