Top 5 Budget Mechanical Keyboards 2024

[@willy8067]

Today, prebuilt has good aesthethic, accoustic and very cheap compared to 3 years ago. Now gasket mount become mandatory. I love too see your keyboard video after a while

[@SpilledMug]

Finally a keyboard video that suits my budget, that budget being: "Third World Country with an insane amount of taxes budget"

[@camiiii31]

I LOVE that you get STRAIGHHTTT into it!! such a comprehensive video for a newbie like me to the mechanical keyboard game

Feel better man! I’m sick as well something’s going around!

[@zak_facts2676]

i love you

[@UniqTeq]

that Tecware Phantom + Elite is wonderful... ❤

[@Caxel108]

The phantom+ elite has 5 pins. Theres a thin layer of foam on top of the plate that covers the 2 extra holes but if you use a 5 pin switch, it punches through. Literally the only down side to this keyboard is the steel plate but its the only steel plate ive seen that doesn't sound pingy.

[@BentTimeAndSpace]

You should note that the Shadow X now comes in 4 colorways!! Picked it up the other day and wow the keyboard is absolutely beautiful and needs minimal modding

[@sethbrown5268]

Right! I got it with the budgerigar switches and it feels so crisp

[@jdduarte937]

I don't recommend phantom keyboards, after just a couple of months, the top metal plate loss the paint, and the switchs starts to fail very fast, worst buy ever

[@ItsaNoah]

Glad to see you still posting the new era hasn’t gotten you as many views as the keyboards so I hope y’all are doing alright love you los don’t give up

[@MyToasterIsMoist]

Man, seeing the Tecware Phantom Plus in the number one spot kills me. I bought one a few months ago - was an incredible keyboard until key chatter started plaguing the keyboard and making it almost completely unusable. Not to mention the keys that became flat out unresponsive, and *maaan* I tried everything to fix it: -used compressed air to clean the keys/switches -swapped out the switches/keycaps for new ones -used different cables, as well as different computers (Windows AND Mac) -installed/uninstalled the software for the keyboard (all 4 of them) Once it started it just never stopped. I've seen a lot of people on Reddit/Amazon saying they've been experiencing the EXACT same thing..which is frustrating because I've also seen a lot of people say they've had it for years with no issues; anyway sorry to vent, I'm just still incredibly salty LOL

[@ethann_1]

I bought it about a month ago and do you recommend me doing anything to keep it in good condition? I dust it with a brush and wash the key caps every 3 weeks

[@AverageStudent1-l8m]

you must wait for the rainy75! it will be the budget keyboard king, it can be used out of the box without modifying, even the stabs!

[@thesphyrth]

And yet the Tecware Phantom is still a solid choice after all these years.

[@ronnturaray4571]

You sir got me into mechanical keyboard. Just wish that its not that expensive here in Philippines so it'd be easier to do mods or buy a spare keyboard. More power to you this 2024!

[@Hand-Banana]

The thing about the Gamakay K61 Pro that I had an issue with is quality control. I ended up sending the first on back because the RGB was dead in the lower left portion of the board . Those lights stayed red. I had the bumble bee switches in that one. The second the RGB in the bottom isn't the same as the first one, it's not as bright and the cyan color is not the same either. The replacement had the crystal switches (Bumblebees are better feeling imo). The switches started having issues around the 6 month mark and after a year more switches starting having issues, so I had to either press keys harder for them to register or hold them down. I did replace the switches with some WS Morandi switches and it's night and day how much better they are than Gamakay's switches. Still worth the money for a customizable keyboard. Upgrade the switches and caps and it's so much better, maybe even do a tape mod and for sure lube the stabilizers. I still recommend the K61 Pro for anyone who wants to make a custom keyboard on a budget with killer RGB.

[@NubAnSkrub]

Ajazz ak820 is pretty good, and it's only $41. If you pay an extra 10, you can get one with a screen (it's small, though)

[@vladimirbondzic5850]

[@MyFlXsh]

I’m confused on how you can put the 5 pin in the 3 pin techware phantom + keyboard can you help 16:00 ? (Maybe you meant cutting it off) if not please explain and can you please make another video with a hot swappable good gaming keyboard for 5 pin switches around 50 bucks so I can add the Akko switches pleaseee and thank you

[@ameko5722]

I thought you sounded a bit different from you other videos, hope you feel better! Keep up the great work and love your videos!

[@sethbrown5268]

I got the Shadow X with the budgerigar switches and it feels amazing! Night and day difference to my old red dragon fizz. thanks for the help on picking the right option!

[@user-qk6wq3pg8l]

yo, thank you so much. The keyboard on the laptop I use is getting a little worn out, and since it is membrane, you can't just swap out the keycaps. I also found the keyboard I use a little too sensetive.

[@sentimentalhermit]

Really wished the Phantom+ Elite supported 5-pin switches... not that I'm going to swap the Wraith orange switches any time soon, but it would be nice to really try out any switch and not clip the extra legs

[@Caxel108]

Actually it does, the ixpe layer just covers the 2 holes for 5 pins, if you use a 5 pin switch it punches right through.

[@sentimentalhermit]

@@Caxel108Nice! Good to know

[@MOCHIII01]

Juat purchased the Tecware Phantom Elite the amount of features it has and for only $100 is absolutely insane

[@japanesecinema6736]

I have a poker ii keyboard, and I just dont see what makes these newer keyboards worth picking up. It's been solid for years.

[@zelfakari1848]

Are these options better than the redragon k530 pro?

[@zzz8891]

of course,redragon is very very outdated for keyboard,my advice is either go tecware phantom or aula f87 pro(u need to find some way to buy this not all countries can buy),these are two best budget keyboard currently

[@empty_peace]

tecware phantom plus elite vs m75 which one better ?\

[@Jesticles85]

I think i have the same cold as you right now lol. get well soon. These budget keebs are getting ridiculously good. I'm over here still rocking a modded redragon and just got some akko jelly blacks (thanks to your recommendation) for it for christmas.

[@lrbaysang2]

I have the redragon vishnu. (Got it because of your review!) Served me a good few years but just broke. I absolutely love my vishnu but its no longer in the market. Do you have alternative recommendations?

[@musicspace5354]

THANK U SO MUCH BRO, i was looking for a keyboard like epomaker style, just like the rk r75, if i didnt see this video i would just buy some unknown epomaker keyboard because i liked the keycaps, thanks so much. RK R75 ON TOP 🤑

[@cheokfungchiew9741]

i've tecware phamton elite for 1 year+ still good to use, u should try ajazz ak820 only 50 dollar and sounds very good .

[@Zerusovfx_2]

which one has better quality and sound ? and am getting it for gaming

[@AdiJustChaotic]

Bro I think I got the wrong Tecware Phantom Keyboard, after a YEAR, some keycaps became unresponsive and I have NO CLUE how to fix it. PLEASE someone tell me how to make my keyboard good again.

[@abrarjimahmed7584]

R75 vs aula f75? I don't know exactly which one should i pick?

"Budget" 80€ is budget?

[@Invixnlty]

Yes, maybe this hobby isn't for you.

[@stateportSound_wav]

@@Nixhekoolol yes, as mere casuals who exist outside of this hobby… this is their world, and we just get to type in it 😅 for a cheap $80. I just saw another comment thread about how $100-200 is cheap… Some of the $35-50 can surprise you with quality, but shopping around I’ve seen a huge leap in quality at the 65-80ish range, for the budget, wireless demographic.

[@AAmxs]

@@laxsanpavalarajah146 I did not get it for 35$, but from what I've seen online, it was originally 35$, but they increased the price since then, but even then, its not too pricey, I got mine for like 45$ from a local keyboard shop in my city, I would still say its worth it for that price, the marbly pop sound is just heaven

[@janmokracki]

This moment when someone talks about the budget keyboards and the cheapest one is $69.99. Are you for real? Those are not budget. Budget ones are like below 30 bucks.

[@zzz8891]

this is considered budget for mechanical keyboard,for very good 30bucks mechanical keyboard only available in China,most of the below 30 bucks keyboard are crap

[@KYZX_]

how is it not? budget is legit anything under £100

[@janmokracki]

Average pay in my country is like $1400 and minimal pay is like $800. Paying for something close to 10% of ones monthly income is nothing close to being budget. And I get the fact that below $30 keyboards will be Chinese stuff but in my mind this is exactly the budget stuff. As I need to put an extra work to make it semi-decent, but it's dirt cheap.

[@KYZX_]

@@janmokracki imma assume you meant 1.4 per month and go on that. Would it not be easier to buy things from your country seeing as the salary is so low? Seeing as it'd be synonymous or at least closer to the level of pay the citizens receive. My fault for not considering your circumstances, but you could see from my point of view why I found your statement to be absurd. The target audience is targeted towards people in the UK, US and Canada. You're not from UK because you said dollars, not pounds, and your not from US cause your salary would be based off tips, and that wouldn't be a specific amount like $800 to $1.4k, if I understood how the system works over there correctly. So why not look for tech reviewers from the same country as you, instead of making a critique of a video that was specifically catered to people that lived in the aforementioned countries. That was why I found your comment to be funny and rude, because you did it without thinking.
