I'm totally new in this MKB field & i'm exploring to get an entry level one.
May I know where can I visit to try out a demo set first? Because I prefer buttons that aren't too loud so that I don't annoy other people in office. I saw from the 1st post sharing location details for: Filco, Razer, Ducky & Armageddon. Are those still considered entry level since it's been 2 years? Are there any other places for me to go try out?

QUOTE(horns @ Jun 12 2020, 01:21 PM) digital mall, lowyat plaza. I actually went to Digital Mall yesterday to look for demo set to try. Managed to try 1 only cause not many available. And i don't even know what i'm trying lol. Seems like their online business is so good, they're neglecting offline customers  So if i'm looking for a quiet switch, not clicky i guess, what should I be looking for? Especially for entry level ones. Possible if the switches are short? Low profile i think is the term for it. This post has been edited by NightHeart: Jun 12 2020, 03:52 PM

QUOTE(horns @ Jun 12 2020, 05:30 PM) ok maybe things have changed during mco. IPA might spoil the paint on stock caps. normally you should check out switch types (linear, tactile, and clicky; normal or low-profile) to see which one you're more comfortable with; then maybe features, e.g., form factors; layout; typing angle; with detachable cable or fixed; type of keycaps; type of stabilizers (for demo units, most of the times their stabilizers are bad); type of case (low- or high-profile) and plate. Yea, those are the things i wanna check out. Hence I'm looking for a place that has demo units for those. The best option is still either Digital Mall or Lowyat Plaza? Those distributor of tecware, ducky etc don't have demo sets in their showroom?
