Looking for nice budget keyboard
Looking for nice budget keyboard
I want to buy a new mech board but not looking to drop a lot of money on it. What's the best pre-built budget mech keyboard you've ever tried? ~$100 or less.

Can't go wrong with Keychron: https://www.keychron.com/collections/normal-profile-keyboards
But it does depend on what you're after
I love Keychron. I have a K2. Was thinking about a C1 Pro Custom. Only $80.
So many options from them, really. You could also look at epomaker, and even Drop has a few options, but you'll get most bang from Keychron
Can't really go wrong with that, if you like it, go for it!
The first board that made me fall into this rabbit hole was a K2, it's a great budget board! My friend has a C2 and is quite happy with it.
This is a personal choice. I've had Keychron and theyr'e very good entry level .. but I DESPISE the fact that they have Bluetooth only. The fact that you have to press a key to wake the keeb up and then wait 2-3 seconds for Bluetooth to pair before you start typing bothers me to no end.
I ended up selling mine to buy a RoyalKludge one which is an amazon clone ... it's pretty much the same thing but it has a 2.5GHZ dongle that doesn't have that same delay.
It also has RGB LEDs programmable software, hot swappable switches and it costs under a hundo ....
Been using it for 2 years now, very happy with it.
I really think those Amazon brands would see noticeable sales improvement if they paid a native English speaker $10 to come up with a better name than "Royal Kludge".
Hmm I don't think you're using the right Keychron boards. Mine has USB.
I'm not worried about that because I hard wire my keyboards anyway.
What are you talking about? All of my keychron boards have a hard wired connection and Bluetooth
My Keychron has a dongle, although it was one of their more costly models.
