Oh I love this one. How are gateron switches compared to MX? I had shitty romer g on logitech and replaced it with another one with MX and its day and night difference
I’ve had nothing but good things to say but I’m also not particularly picky. I’ve got cherry blues on my og daskeyboard and I like both for sure. Well, maybe not OG. It’s a Professional Model S from 2013.
It took a little while to get used to the smooshed layout. For the first week or two I kept hitting numlock when reaching for backspace. But I did get used to it and I enjoy having nearly all the keys (no print screen, FYI) with a footprint about the same as my old TKL board.
I have a wired FL-Esports FL-980, which I love at the price I paid ($45 “used” board on Amazon + $15 aliexpress keycaps + $30 switches). Even if I hadn’t sprung for the keycaps or switches, it came with Kailh Box Whites (same as this 8bitdo IIRC) and some decent double-shot PBT Dolch keycaps (if a little thin) in Cherry profile. They make a wireless, but I’m not sure I love it as much at 2x or 3x the price of my bargain basement board. The basic types you’re looking for are called “96%” or “1800” though.
Nah, I just brought a full form factor from eagletec and customised it a bit for sound dampening and added pudding caps, which was its own headache as I’m in the UK so my layout is just off what most cap sets are made for, lol.
Any suggestion on a smaller form factor wireless *with a numpad?
I like my Keychron K4
That’s what I’m using. Lovely keyboard. Aluminum frame feels high quality, keys feel good, and design is very minimal and understated.
I spent a lot of time debating between the k4 and the k3. I think I just like compact layouts.
