Besides better case materials, and generally aesthetic stuff, what more is there even to ask for? If you want fancy switches/keycaps you ca

Media Buttons on Razer Keyboard are unlit

If a key dies on my current one

You can get a Keychron V5/Q5 MAX or a V6/Q6 MAX if you want a wireless keyboard. It'll last far longer than anything from Logitech. The V6/Q6 is a fullsize while the V5/Q5 is a compact-fullsize about the size of a TKL while still having the same amount of a keys as a fullsize. If you plan to use it

Thanks for great list! I was looking at other keychron keyboards but somehow missed Q5 max. I have an option to get one for 150€, maybe it could be good option after changing switches and keycaps
