How about this?

cherry mkb

is this a good kb?

any other alternative/competitor for within my budget?

i have never tried the CHERRY MX-BOARD 2.0 myself but there's a lot of negative comments online saying that the typing feel is really bad even though the MX Board 2.0 is using cherry switches.

the keycaps are low profile so it might suit your preference. just bear in mind that the Capslock key on the MX Board 2.0 has a weird mounting that normal keysets won't be able to fit on this key.

Your budget is too low, most Cherry MX switches keyboards are above RM 300.
Since this club is established for so long, your budget is not realistic.

For recommendation according to current pricing:
Ducky One TKL Non-Backlit (Doubleshot ABS keycaps) = RM 319
iKBC C108 Non-Backlit (Doubleshot PBT keycaps) = RM 349
iKBC C87 Non-Backlit (Doubleshot PBT keycaps) = RM 329

These 3 are considered near to RM 300 marks while reputable branding.

That Cherry definitely a low tier board. I would suggest save up and get a better ones like a Filco majestouch 2. Yes it is bloody expensive but for the quality it offers, worth it.
I know because I am using it now as I type this comment. It is like a typist wet dream and it is so discreet that the wife did not even notice I changed the keyboard to mechanical.

Filcoislove,Filcoislife

Guys,
Need opinion.

Products that are good (in general) between below brands in sequence.

From Best to good

Filco > Leopold > iKBC > Ducky

Let me know your thought.

do you need the numpad? if no, consider TKL (tenkeyless) boards

since you're using your keyboard in the living room, then you should consider non-clicky switches like browns or linear switches like reds. you can also use o-rings to dampen the sound.

maybe you can check out other brands like ducky, cmstorm, or even china keyboards like magicforce, obins, etc.

imo steelseries/razer are overrated for mechanical keyboards

Recently got my masterkeys pro L. Didn't know that it is quite high. Not sure if I should go and find a wrist rest.

Get a wooden wrist rest.

Interested in this model as well. If u can, please share with us your thoughts on it.

Oh, and hi everyone. I'm very new to mechanical keyboards, would like to learn more here from sifus before I purchase my first one

depending on ur budget and usage, i suggest Filco.
why? cos Filcoislove,Filcoislife it is the best out of all kibod i use for typing. Mainly for the stab.

but if u opt for back-lit. i cant give my suggestion coz me kibod all no bling.

anyhow, me no sifu. above are just my 2cents. and welcome to mymkb !

Thanks for your input bro. May I know where I can test/buy Filco keyboards in KL? Price range for Filco? I went to Lowyat earlier today, all I found was some Ducky Zero's & One's (but very limited quantities, not much variety), Cooler Masters, Steelseries 6Gv2, Corsairs etc. Didn't see any Filco's Also, I was quite underwhelmed by the typing feel of the Ducky Zero (DK1508S I think?) that I tried, I think it had brown switches but I'm not sure. The feel is kinda..meh...

I'm quite keen on the Fuhlen as well, mainly due to the low price. But not so keen on the fact that it's a TKL, I think I'd prefer full size.

As for bling bling, it'd be nice to have an option to bling bling my board when I feel like it, but in the daytime or when doing work I think I'd prefer it to be off. So yeah, nice to have it but if takda pun takpa.

Ultimate Zone PJ.
try more keybs there. try all red, brown, blue.
dunno y u feel that, but the fact that i like typing on mkb more now is bcoz i dont need to bottom out keys. regardless of switch.
as for price, 400-450 brand spanking new.

not gonna commend on Fuhlen but more on size.
do u prefer fullsize or do u need fullsize.
do u use numpad a lot? if not, TKL is fine enuff. just buy a separate numpad. mech or not depends on ur pocket.
Y TKL is preferable, smaller n lighter n easier(fit most bags) to carry around.

bling bling is personal preference. u choose.

what do you think of cm storm suppressor keyboard. the price looks good for membrane kb and its quiet.

hey gaiz. so recently i picked up an anne pro.

my phone (xiaomi redmi note 3) can't seem to connect to the bluetooth. cannot detect any signals at all when i turn on bluetooth from the board.

firmware updated to v1.4

no idea if this is the cause (from their website manual):

Android部分手机虽然是4.4版本，但是不支持BLE HID协议，会存在兼容性问题，如无法搜索到键盘等。

"some android phones, even with android version 4.4 (and up), will still have compatibility issues like unable to find keyboard because of the lack of support of BLE HID protocol"

Hey guys, would anyone be kind enough to recommend me any mech keyboards that are silent( I know silent can be very subjective, so yeah any which is silent to you for now).

Preferably affordable but also decent in quality, Backlight that can be turned on/off too( not a must, but would be a plus). This would also actually be my first venture to mech keyboards, previously been using membrane and laptop keyboards, with the latter being used more so still a newbie.

Thank you and have a great night !

Will be better if you include a budget (e.g. rm400 etc.) and the layout you prefer.
If tkl or fullsize, can go for the filco with mx pink (silent switch) I think it's 419 from ultimate zone?
Or you can just go for install O-rings on linear mx switch as well.
