G switches by Logitech. Propriety. Not many keycaps available for those. Logitech itself may have some variety of those keycaps, but it's going to be very limited in choices.

usually what switches for GMMK keyboards?

People usually go for more expensive switches.
FOR EXAMPLE ONLY,
Boba U4Ts, NovelKeys Cream, Glorious (Holy) Panda switches, Gateron Ink Blacks etc.
Many switches with different key feel/sound profiles.

Already getting GMMK keyboards that's highly customizable, might as well go customize all the way instead of using the standard Cherry MX or Gateron Red/Blue/Black/Brown.

I'm using them, gateron browns. Its good, battery last long but there's 1 thing i super don't like is that the usb cable connection is at the bottom of the keyboard. Its difficult to plug in and out the cable. I prefer keychron's design where it is at the side.

Where did you bought it from? Are there any keyboards identical to this in terms of the layout of the keys?

Not OP,
but Keychron and RoyalKludge has the same layout.

Keychron K2 and RK84

There's also Akko 3084, EPOMAKER EP84, Tofu 84, XD84 Pro.

Just google 84% keyboard and you'll find a few.

Thanks for the recommendations. Any idea if there are any low profile 84% keyboards besides the Keychron?

Sorry, never seen any before. Hopefully others may be able to help you.

i believe xd84 is low profile? else vortex race 3

the "kbd75" layout has fallen out of favour in recent years, with most preferring the split cluster/65% blocker layouts.

Same like me, looking at RK61 or Anne Pro 2 for a new KB. To be honest with you, RK61 have more plus points over Anne pro 2.
RK61 has hot-swappable switch support, cost S$30-40 cheaper and has more RGB effect. if you like to swap switches then RK61 is the obvious answer. And it will be since if you have issue with any switches you can replace them yourself.

But i went for the Anne pro 2 in the end.

Cos i do not like the RK wording on the front

Or you can consider the RK68 too.

Bought it long time ago from gamersmart at plaza sing. Yeah, key layout is the same. I bought keycool because I couldn't find available stock for the keychron model i wanted.

have been using it for more than a year already. I think i only charge it 3 times? My daily usage is low though.

Interesting, I thought it's finally becoming mainstream thanks to the gmmk pro and keychron q1.

Last time it was so damn hard to find... I got my previous keycool kc84 after several hoops.

Anyway I just got a RK84. Some issues though: the WiFi and Bluetooth keeps blinking when there is no wired connection but the cable is still plugged in, even when off (eg if you have usb charging enabled on your PC). Kinda irritating. I have my keyboard connected to a powered switch so I have to unplug the keyboard every night. Looking at getting a usb hub with individual switches to mitigate this.

Also, there is some delay in wired mode whenever the computer boots up. So occasionally I have issues entering bios lol.

Just ordered a hotswap kc84 from taobao. Only 50 with keycaps and all before sea shipping. onna see how it goes.

Btw are there any shops that allow you to test individual switches? Like glorious panda boba u4t all those

Just a minor thing, the Keycool home/end/pgup/down cluster is ordered slightly differently from rk84.

 

[trenzterra]

Btw I also found this keydous k80. Seems pretty good but pricier. The wired version has south facing LEDs too for those using cherry profile. Also has rotary encoder!

 

[vamprose]

gmmk pro/q1 are considered as 75% within the keyboard circle, not 84%

 

[caesium2108]

Receiving this new gmmk pro tomorrow! Can’t wait! Modded by hankeebs from carousell. Just sharing!
