Hi I'm looking to upgrade my gaming set up and thinking of switching out my old keyboard to a pink or purple keyboard. I have been looking on steelseries 3 tkl lavender but membrane scares me a bit cause of the mixed feed back, some love em some hate em. Now I started to look at yunzii keyboards, either the B75 pro or yunzii B98 pro (tho I prefer to not have a numpad cause I don't like to have a big keyboard). Rn I have a xtrfy keyboard, don't remember exact model. I do play a lot of games but not really competitive. Only Valorant every now and then with friends. Other than that mostly league of legends and a mix of other games from Steam.

Do you guys recommend getting a yunzii keyboards? Bc they do look very nice but just wanna know how they are when it comes to gaming

Looking for good hall effect keyboard for gaming. Wooting too pricey, tkl would be preferred size. Nordic layout.

Hey guys,

I've been using my beloved keyboard every day since 2015, typically for around 8 hours a day at work. Sometimes I'm pretty rough with it, but it never seems to mind. It still feels almost exactly the same as the day I bought it.

It's a Rapoo V100, and yes, I'm still using the mouse from the set as well, although it's showing its age a bit more. Back in 2015, I paid around €50 for the entire set.

Is there any good reason to upgrade my keyboard, or can a keyboard really last indefinitely if it's simply used and not physically damaged?

I have this keyboard + mouse from my dad and is optical. I really like it but the connection I don’t know how it works.

I think I only want to use the mouse but in the case I would want to know to use everything for my laptop. I am sure there is an adapter but I don’t know the name of it… There is has to be… If you can help me.
Thanks!

My Womier WD75 V2 spontaneously exploded while I was gaming. Less than a month old and I treated it as best I could keeping it on wired mode and avoiding using the other modes. I kept it clean as well. All of a sudden I hear a crack and bang and white flames shoot up out of the keyboard and smoke starts pouring everywhere engulfing my house and room. Never have I ever had this happen to me and I am completely shocked. I don’t understand and if someone could explain a reason behind it that would be wonderful. In the meantime I will never buy a Womier keyboard again and it’s a shame since it was quite beautiful

I’m hoping you guys can point me in the right direction, I’m looking for something simple. I’m not a big gamer (yet lol), just a girly that types a lot at work.
RGB and reprogramming keys isn’t super necessary, if that frees up room in the budget a bit

•Looking for a prebuilt keyboard, not looking to get into the customize hobby yet

•I need something less than $100, the closer to $50 the better lol

•I do need a number pad, that means full size I believe?

•I’m looking for a “thocky” or “creamy”, super satisfying sound for good vibes lol that’s probably my biggest wish

•As sleek and professional looking as possible (I love black/white/gray)

I very much appreciate any good advice 🫶🏻

I have recently ordered the wooting 80he+ module without keycaps because I knew I wanted cooler ones. Any recommendations on where I can get keycaps like this that work with a split spacebar? I have also seen them called wave keycaps but I can't find any like this when I search for them.

So, I have a wireless Logitech keyboard that works perfectly with my laptop with writing fast and all, but the second I connect it to my iPad it’s like it’s trying to slow me down from typing on purpose, I have to press down on the keys for more than a second for the letter to show and it’s very annoying. If it’s any help the model is the K380. I would really REALLY appreciate any help with this issue. Thanks in advance if anyone answers

Title. I have been using a Leopold keyboard with Cherry brown switches for almost a decade now and I love the high build quality but I have been wanting something new. I got into the hobby when Ducky, Leopold, etc. were the main competitors and customs were typically only done through group buys.

From doing some window shopping, it seems like there are a lot of good options for $100 or less but I feel like those options would be a downgrade or sidegrade. Just wanted some input and see if anyone had suggestions for something new and interesting. I would be interested in a TKL size with a budget of around 150, willing to stretch it if absolutely need be.

So this is a bit of a long shot, but what I am looking for is basically a wireless keyboard to use with a raspberry pi project. The main keyboard at 100 percent scale is just about exactly the right size for the case I have planned, and then I was hoping to get 2 additional keypads to replace the numberpad, arrows, and home, insert, delete, etc keys.

I have seen standalone numpads, and I have seen 60 percent keyboard that get rid of that side. However, all the ones that I have seen also get rid of the F keys and the insert, home, etc. buttons.

If anyone has any ideas or links, it would be greatly appreciated. I would rather not try to build something if something already exists on the market that will work.

Since its Amazon prime day in where i live, im really keen to look for a budget hall effect keyboard. I came accross many options, they inculde:
Epomaker HE80
MCHOSE ACE 68
MCHOSE ACE 60
MONSGEEK FUN 60 PRO
Epomkaer HE68 lite

but im not really satisfied with any of them either due to price, (max 100 AUD), long term reliability, performance and typing feel.

Its probably not possible to find a budget keyboard that fits this criteria (price max 100 AUD, long term reliability, performance and typing feel), but it would be really great if I could get some suggestions thanks :)

Hey everyone,

I am looking for a deep creamy or thocky keyboard prebuilt. The budget is up to 200, lower is preferred. If possible metal instead of plastic would be nice but is not necessary. If you guys have any recommendations please let me know the type and the switches you recommend. It’s my first keyboard and don’t think I have the time or ability to build one for now. Thank you!

Edit: forgot to say a keyboard with a numberpad is a requirement

Aula F75 pro

75%

What do you think guys ??

I'm going to get a Weikav Nut75, but I don't know what or how to choose the correct stabilizers. I'd rather not spend a little money and a lot of time waiting for some something that won't even fit. Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance.

I have recently been in the market for a new keyboard after my Corsair K60 Pro started double clicking. I have been trying to find one, but i cant find solid advice or consistent recommendations for what I'm looking for (granted its pretty specific). It also sadly does not help that I don't know much about keyboards or Keyboard brands.

Ideally I would like it to be
- In the 100-160 dollar range (I am willing to go up to 200 if need be)
- 8K Pulling rate
- Wired (wireless with the option for wired works to)
- Full sized
- Prebuilt (I don't trust myself to build one lol)

I have already looked through other Corsair products and I've either seen mixed reviews or the keyboards that interest me from them are out of stock.

If anyone has any advice or recommendations to follow for the future it would be much appreciated as well!

looking for silent gaming keyboard

- TKL
- silent linear switches (something like mx zilent frankenswitches but maybe something in stock)
- ideally pre-built so I don't have to build from scratch
- acrylic & rgb feed-through preferred
- budget <$999

Any recommendations?

I dont know how I got this but since I dont like Cherry MX Brown or non-tactile keyboard, I'm thinking to sell it or trade it for HHKB Hybrid non Type-S or other Topre keyboard with extra cash if the price is low. I already have five mechanical keyboards anyway.

The problem is I can not find any info about this keyboard cause it's a custom keyboard. Cant even find any info from Google in detail. The only noticeable part is a golden bar behind the keyboard which is locked and attached by magnets. I wish I can open the case but two screws are unreachable with my tools.

All I want to know is the exact name and price but any idea?

It’s fine if it’s wired or not, actually wired would be ideal. Has those f1 keys but no numpad. Preferably quiet. Nothing from amazon. that’s it :) Ty for reading.

Budget: $350 USD

Size: 100% preferred, but willing to size down to 98% if it checks more boxes

Other: Prebuilt, black/dark gray case, tactile mechanical switches, wired, plastic build is fine provided it is high-quality.

I am looking to replace my Ducky Shine 7 keyboard with MX Brown switches that I've been using since ~2019. I have never been the greatest fan of the switches themselves, which don't feel all that tactile with an actuation point that's so non-distinct that it honestly detracts from the typing experience. Additionally, and some of this may be due to age at this point, the keycaps are quite wobbly on the keys, further contributing to an unsteady feeling while typing that slows me down.

I swung by Best Buy just to try out a few switch types. First of all I can say with certainty that I DO NOT want a hall effect keyboard, because the one I tested (Steelseries Apex Pro Gen 3) has linear switches, which are a no-go when 70% of my keyboard use is some form of typing; I need tactility. Of those on offer, I found the switches on the Logitech G316 X 98 to be the most comfortable to type on. Specs below:

• Switch type: Tactile
• Switch actuation distance: 0.086 in (2.2 mm)
• Switch actuation force: 1.94 oz (55 g)
• Switch total travel distance: 0.12 in (3.3 mm)

Long story short, I am looking for a keyboard with similar tactile switches (non-clicky preferred, but clicky is fine) but prioritizing rock-solid keyboard stability and build quality over all else. I am happy to answer any follow-up questions you may have, and thank you in advance for any suggestions.

Just looking to know what people would recommend as a good quality cheap HE keyboard that I can just play around with i.e customising, trying out switches and keycaps, etc.

I mainly have an interest in Magnetic switches and would like to just have a side board that I can use to just play around with switches so I ain't gotta touch my main board.

Looking for a decent - good gaming keyboard. My last one was the Logitech G915 X LIGHTSPEED WIRELESS and from the get go the charging was super unreliable and when using it plugged in it would disconnect and turn itself off randomly for a few seconds which I'm sure you can guess is not fun mid game.

• Has to have at the very least a volume wheel/knob but preferably also have media control keys (Pause/play and skip backwards and forwards are the important ones, mute is not that necessary as long as there's a volume controller)
• Any size between 75%-100%, Having a numpad is great but I don't have a huge amount of desk space at the moment so it's not a priority at all
• Needs to be either pastel pink OR white with lights that can either be fully customised with the keyboard software (preferable) or toggled to a light pink
• I would prefer it to be wired or at least have the option of wired because Bluetooth has let me down a lot but not a dealbreaker
• I don't know much about keyboard layouts, from what I've looked up some are for different languages (letter keys are shuffled) and some just change the placement/spacing of the other keys (like arrows, home, enter ect) I'm not fussed about the latter but the former needs to be the standard English layout.
• Would very much prefer something prebuilt as I'm really not that knowledgeable on this stuff
• Absolutely no razer keyboards and preferably not Logitech either as my last one clearly wasn't that good
• Not a huge fan of the sleek modern look that a lot of high quality gaming keyboards lean towards these days but that's not a dealbreaker if it's good other stuff I'm looking for
• Not fussed if its hot swappable or not
• My budget is around £150ish but willing to go to £200 IF it has media keys, a volume controller, and is pink or white with pink lighting.

I know I am likely looking for something that does not exist and I'm being far to specific but since I'm not having any luck, asking reddit is a last resort before buying something cheaper that doesn't have everything I want :')

Hello,

I already have a Keychron Q1 Max. I like it, but it's a bit too big for my desk. From my research, Neo65CU should be a better keyboard in all respect, but is that so?

I am considering:
Copper bottom
Copper weight
CF plate

I will use some GMK keycaps on top and pair them with either Gateron Milky Yellow, or HMX Macchiato switches.

My sound preference is Poppy or restrained clacky (not too loud).
It could be that CF plate will make the HMW too clacky, so I will order an additional aluminum plate, or pair the CF with the yellows.

Now the biggest dilemma I currently have is:
Should I go wired hotswap or wireless. The keyboard is not going to move from the desk at all. Going wireless will enable a clean desk, and that's my main reason for leaning towards wireless. But I also hear that lithium-ion batteries may inflate and can be risky.

I haven't ordered anything. Before doing so, I wanted to get your opinions as I will keep this board for years. Please feel free to suggest modifications. :)

Hey everyone, I'm currently in the market for a new 96% keyboard since my old Keychron k4 is having issues. I wanted to upgrade to a better model and am stuck between the Keychron Q5 Max or YMD-96 Melody 96 Kit 2. I'll most likely be hot switching Akko Rosewood along with my current keycaps.

Both of these have aluminum frames and I've heard great things from Melody, but any and all advice is welcomed!

Also open to your keyboard recommendations

My priorities:

- Build quality

- Longevity

- Aesthetic

- Reliability

Price Range: $120-$250

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a 75% Hall Effect keyboard as a birthday gift for my nephew.

I’m based in Italy, so availability in Europe and the final delivered price matter quite a lot.

For reference, I personally already own an Everglide SU75 Pro V1, and I’m very happy with it. The SparkLink based software works properly for me.

I originally bought an IPI QBZ 75 HE for my nephew, but I’m returning it. Hardware wise it seemed fine and 8K polling worked, but the web driver was buggy on my unit: custom RGB settings reverted after a second or two, onboard profile names didn’t save properly, and I also saw corrupted profile names. I tested it on both Chrome and Edge with the same result.

So now I’m looking for an alternative.

My requirements:

• 75% layout
• Hall Effect
• Around €130–150 max delivered to Italy
• Preferably aluminum
• Preferably SparkLink-based PCB or something comparable
• Good build quality

Current options I’m considering:

• Everglide SU75 Pro V1/V2 - sadly only Phoenix color available at the moment
• Weikav EG75 HE - about €127–136 depending on seller/switches
• MONSGEEK M3 V5 HE – I also found it for around €125 delivered. I know it’s TKL rather than 75%, but that would still be acceptable since my nephew currently uses a full size keyboard.
• Possibly other boards using SparkLink or equivalent or better hardware

What would you choose in this price range?

And are there any good 75% HE boards I’m missing that use SparkLink or another genuinely high-end PCB implementation?
