is it just that or including arrow keys?
tq for enlightment

For easier reference, I usually separate them into:
1. Alphas
2. Mods
3. F-row
4. Nav Cluster
5. Arrow keys
6. Numpad

1+2 = 60%
1+2+3+5 = 75%
1 until 5 = TKL

Going back to 75% keyboards, the reason I really like them is because I can fit most of what I want in a TKL into it without major loss of functionality.

Alright,noted.
What are the prices that are considered budget/cheap for the keyboards? I'm totally clueless regarding this.
Have read up a bit on keyboards that are silent before this, Logitech have keyboards that have o-rings pre installed on them right? Will try to do more research, thanks so much for the suggestions!
*
I suggest that you reach around MYR 300++ for your first keyboard. Current recommendation right now is CM series (TKL and above) and Anne Pro for 60%.

O-rings are really stupidly cheap and I can give you a set for free (or just Poslaju transport costs) if you ever need them.

Best for silent would be anything but MX Blues (because silent is a bullshit marketing term).

Also, you can join the facebook group to be spammed "Lifetime Warranty" shite-tier China boards whenever you ask for a recommendation. Of course, you'll wanna sell it after 6 months when you realize what is a bad board and what is a good board.

any good CM boards that's around Rm300? preferably TKL or 60%? and cherry MX red switch as well (really liked the quickfire rapid-i but its like RM400, which is wayyyy out of my budget sweat.gif )

CM doesn't do 60%s.

Few weeks ago got CM promo for browns.

Now no more. Thank Najib for price hike.

thanks for the clarification, how about TKL? Any TKL within the price range? or even full size but compact design will do

Don't think so. Either settle for shilte China board or save up RM100 more.

Any Logitech romer-g user here ? Do you guys experienced double tapping ? My g310 w and b key starting to double tapping​ alot after 1 year 2 months. Not sure what is the main problem.

Bad debounce code? I don't have any chance to examine the switches on romers, so I can't say this definitively.

Buy GMK set. Then buy addons. All kibod covered. Then you go ortholinear. So you buy XDA/DSA/SA or whatever. Then you dun like. So you go back to GMK and standard sets. Then you custom. Then you buy uniform profile again. Repeat.

sorry i know nothing about bt boards. i use only wired.

it's a full-sized, with backlit. with a budget of 200, your options can be what you have already named, and maybe 1st player firerose mk3. (i suspect all these affordable mkbs are from the same oem manufacturer; they all look the same to me, except for logos) if you want you can start with those brands with full size layout. you might also wanna look at tkl (tenkeyless, i.e. models without numpad)

as for the quality, actually no one can tell you the truth. what everyone is telling you now is about when these boards are new (they are still new in market; mostly marketing to me). no one can tell you what can happen to it after say 3 to 5 years.

btw it's ok to get stuff within budget. when you have extras, you get to choose from more options. we only suggest what we think better based on our limited experience, e.g. filco boards are with us for more than 3 years already (regular usage), and they are still going strong, like new lol

edit: note that filco boards doesn't have back light if it's important to you.

i mean i don't know typing feels can be improved this much, just by lubricating these parts (although the process is very time-consuming to me); and no i don't think you need to lubricate yours if you don't want to, mkbs will still be ok.

er maybe i oversimplified things by directing everyone into getting the idea of mkb is mainly about feelings. (although my conclusions are somewhat related to that) no to me it's not just about that. don't forget about their other advantages against membrane boards:
1. lasting. this is especially true for good boards. from internals like pcb and switches, it extends to maintained consistency of typing feels even after a good many years of use.
2. repairable. if it has dead keys, just replace those and move on. if it has scratchy switches, lube it and move on. there is no need to throw it away. (basic skills like soldering are required, but it's not hard to learn at all)
3. flexible. this is about customization. almost everything can be customized according to your needs (and budget). it's not that boring anymore for a keyboard.
4. rich form factors. 40%, 60%, 75%, tkl, full-sized, etc. there are choices to meet everyone's unique preferences.

All wrong. I get MKB because tuhao. No need other reasons.
