[Recommend] Good Mechanical Keyboard

[jasonwsc]

Oh. Welcome to Monsgeek gang. Its a great keyboard! I saw this on Monsgeek Discord and liked it!

Good choice on switches, how are they?

Decently nice to type on, especially for the price. Figured that I should start trying out linear switches after years of using MX Browns.

Also swapped out the keycaps for some Akko doubleshot PBT MDA-height ones I got from Taobao. Around $30 as well, but the lettering and quality feels noticeably better.

Personally has few tactile switches on different kb for comparison, from worst to best.

Gateron brown < cherry brown < akko cream blue v3 < feker panda 67g

Can consider the latter 2.

Dunno it feels really bad on my keychron kb, when compared to my old ducky cherry brown. Like almost can't feel the tactile bump.

Want tactile just get the everglide dark jade also known as moyu black.

 

[poooooo]

I see the price of dark jade i faint already.
1pcs @ 1.60, Akko cream blue only around 13~16 per box for 45pcs.

Actually some of the switches expensive yet the consistency not there IMO

 

[ragnarok95]

Switches to me are like personal touch. Some like it, some hate it. Best to try out first before committing.

Bought akko 3068b and paired with their creame blue switches. Some are still stocked jelly purple on those miscellaneous keys etc. never bother to get more creame blue. Coupled with few layers of tape mod and it’s wonderful

Bought the Keychron Q2 to replace my gmmk 2 which is acting weirdly these few months.

 

[YouHeypiCanLiao]

nowadays for budget.. is GMK67 still king ah?

 

[ragnarok95]

GMK67 still one of the best around.

My Keychron Q2 is here! Overall i feel its an upgrade from my gmmk 2. The box it came with also felt more premium. The build quality overall is better than the Gmmk 2 plus and it has south facing layout. This KB is heavy and solid. Overall... like it!!! Worth the investment for me! Using Sakura switches here.
