@@arandomdudeontheinternet4199 Input interfaces have almost a larger impact on your experience, than the computer itself (as long as it is minimally competent) and good peripherals can last through multiple upgrades and even decades. If you're spending a full time work week (add to that ). Now people out there chasing the dragon enthusiasts for whom the grass is always greener getting deeper into exclusives and are getting a new custom to match their new set up, like redecorating - are more like your story. A lot of it starts with RSI needs, function, feel, features and some BIFL types. The looks might sway you between models or looks, but is a tool that companies use in a competitive space and marketing wise. Even coloring keys differently has functional applications. Also, once someone is paying more, then that has a tendency to raise other aesthetic considerations, as well.

what did you end up going for?

[@M3galodon]

@@flo9133 I settled on the Glorious GMMK but I haven't got one yet for a variety of reasons. They launched a new keyboard since and from what I've seen I'll probably go with that. In the meantime, I nicked the Microsoft Sculpt from my work computer (I bought that keyboard myself) which I love the ergonomics of, but I hate the low profile membrane keycaps, and though they're not bad for what they are they are tragic for gaming. I game on the Razer Tartarus Pro which, love it or hate it, I can't live without and I'll still main even after I make my custom keyboard.

[@CalMillward]

This year I was looking for a keyboard. I had the choice of the Steelseries Apex Pro or the Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition. I went with the Razer Huntsman TE. I snatched this keyboard for only £80 on Amazon Prime Day. It took me a while to get use to this keyboard because it's so responsive where I could accidentally click random keys but now I am at the point where I've pretty much almost mastered it. The only reason I didn't go for the Apex Pro is the ABS keycaps and the whole keyboard isn't optical switches which I bet if I spent nearly £200 on that keyboard, they would release another one with full optical switches and PBT keycaps. For £80, it was a no brainer.

[@HyperGlameow]

The alloy origins core was my favorite the hyperx red switches are so much better than mx reds it's insane definitely recommend especially for the build and price point

[@EmperorWasHere]

I have that exact keyboard and I personally feel like they’re too “deep”. I prefer more of an assuring click

[@inepsaog9631]

Awesome video with different guests and their opinions! I still love my K95 but those smaller boards are starting to catch my eye

[@ddonuts444]

What are the prices for all of these? Personally, that's the most important factor when buying a keyboard.

[@trowawayacc]

Above 50$ way to dam expensive.

[@Coeb005]

Above $100 definitely the custom one way higher price

[@iatwiatw]

Check out Tecware and Redragon if you're looking for affordable but still quality wired mechs. I have the Tecware Phantom L and I really like it. For wireless, check out Keychron and Epomaker's Ajazz sublabel. The problem with Keychron is that their keyboard cases are super thick.

Great video, some interesting keyboards out there and love the fact you guys have gone out of the box on some choices, keyboards otherwise many will never have heard of (including me!). However I use and truly love my Logitech G815, the full sized wired big brother to the 915 TKL. I use the numpad, so TKL isn't of use for me. I chose the tactile (brown) feedback rather then my usual trusted MX reds, and glad I did.

Glad to see my beloved G915 TKL. Great video, as always, production quality is insane.
