Akko vs Aula vs Royal Kludge
Bought an Aula F75 Black Side-engraved from shopee like 6 months ago, keyboard still looks brand new, and feels brand new to type on. Like most electronics, you may or may not get a lemon unit, it's really just a lottery whether you get unlucky or not. P.S. I use the F75 wireless more than wired, an

Do you actually notice the difference between premium and budget keyboards?
Not a KB snob, and I must admit that for me getting used to mechanical keyboard was a journey, but once you develop tactile "taste" so you can feel the actuation point with your fingertips it just getting so much easier to type, and going back to membrane feels like you typing on the clay, and must

Need help picking a new work keyboard. This one isn't great.
Keychron C1 or C2 might be perfect for you - they're in your price range, have the shallow responsive feel you want from your laptop, and come with backlighting and decent spill resistance

A very fast touch typist needs a new keyboard - and v. confused
I love the 8bitdo C64 with the Kailh Box White V2 switches for a clicky experience. But my main keyboard for all the typing I have to do is a Keychron C1 Pro 8K that I’ve installed Akko Creamy Purple Pro V3 switches on. I followed the advice of another Redditor who praised these switches and works a

Search for a silent keyboard
Definitely as a silent option. But I like it in general as well for the aesthetics a And build quality. My general keyboard recs for highest quality at cheapest price are the Kisnt KN85 for best/cheapest and the Bridge75 for Best/Under$100. Full size options are way more limited. For budget options

Which one of these keyboards should I buy?
I think the reply I just gave in a different thread applies here, too, so Ill paste it here: (In reference to the Nuphy Node high/low profile keyboards with Blush switches) Definitely as a silent option. But I like it in general as well for the aesthetics a And build quality. My general keyboard rec

Overwhelmed by keyboard options - where do I even start?
Short Answer: Keychron C1 Pro or C3 Pro Long Answer: Ok...based on what you've said, it sounds like you want an inexpensive, non-magnetic, non-low-profile mechanical keyboard that has separated arrow keys, and that has a bit of touch feedback without it being too intense (this is called light tactil

Keychron c1 case swap?
Plastic cases are thockier than metal and swapping the case wont solve the issue. Tell us the mods you have on your board so we can figure out what we can put or remove. The Keychron C1 is a very very solid beginner board, I've had mine since the pandemic and I've modded a ton of keyboard since. I k

Are expensive keyboards even necessary
tl;dr $50-$100 US seems to be the sweet spot for quality. My most recent keyboard is a Keychron C1 for $60. It has a very nice premium quality and satisfying key strokes. The one before that was a Corsair Strife RGB mk2 for $115 that while very nice, isn't as satisfying to type on. Both are mechanic
