Keychron is a joke
I will say that there are also plenty of people that have not had any bad experiences. In the last year I have ordered a K5 Max and a V6 Max (orders were a few months apart). I use both of them daily and I have not had a single issue. Like I have seen on here i order them via Amazon to avoid having

Trying to find a keyboard thats 100%? But small in size
Consider some floating design with minimal edges, such as Keychron K5 Max, Cherry mx10.0 or MX10.1. For something slighter more compact, there is Nuphy Node100 or Keychron K17 Max. All of them are low profile.

Novo nos Teclados
Epa, comprei há coisa de um mês um um Keychron K5 max com brown switches, não tenho qualquer razão de queixa. Funciona bem, como e hot swappable dá para trocar switches, keycaps. Comprei diretamente a keychron, o primeiro que chegou não sei que lhe fizeram vinha completamente amassado, parecia um S,

Conseils pour un clavier iso-fr, plutôt profil bas et avec numpad

Low profile tactile keyboards
I have a Keychron k5 max that came with gateron reds and I swapped those out for a mix of banana and wisterias (both tactile and feel/sound way less cheap than the browns). I like Keychron, they have good quality for the price and I was pleased to find out regular keycaps fit the low profile board

Government Job = Excuse for a Pink/Feminine WFH Upgrade
Some mechanical keybs with low profile switches feel nice. Like a Mac keyboard, but better. Good brands have different key cap options. Here's a Keychron in white (not sure of AU availability, but gives the idea) https://www.keychron.com/collections/mechanical-keyboard/products/keychron-k5-max-qmk-v

Best mouse and keyboard
Some people seem to enjoy the MX Keys (both regular and mechanical) and MX Master combo by Logitech, though the MX Master 3 and 3S have a rubberized coating that deteriorates over time and becomes sticky; also the 3S has had some issues with click buttons stopping working. If you want a cheaper alte

Best sounding/most silent OEM switches for the K5 MAX?
Yes, basically. A tape mod filters out the high-pitched clack sounds, making the overall keyboard sound deeper, thockier and more 'poppy'. But also louder. Adding a thin (1.5 mm) O-ring to the keycap stem dampens the bottom-out noise, but also gives it a soft, cushioned feel when bottoming out. Some
