its been a week + and i still havent had to charge the mkb with usb cable.
For this Aula F99.
the led light supposedly indicates the battery left, but it still seems like a fullbar to me.
when i set my pc to sleep, then want to wake it up, it takes about 20-30 seconds for the mkb to wake up properly before you can type. It's setup as blue tooth, so i guess that is acceptable.
Other than a not instant wake up (not expecting it to be), it just works fine, haven't noticed any issues.
the led light profile i am using is, when i type keys it the flashes lighting. but when i don't type, there is no lighting whatsoever. maybe that also helped reduced the battery consumption.
so after a week+ using it, i'm still liking this mkb

has numpads, good quality doubleshot keycaps (proper ones), led lighting (if you want show through keycaps then go the pro version). Switch is nice i didn't find any issue typing. Aesthetics is to my taste. Looks clean/professional.
If you want to change a key macro to something else you can. The software may not be perfect, but it reliably makes the change.
For the price and quality, it's very worth it. I can easily recommend this mkb to anyone.
Though if you want a better mkb case body (e.g. solid aluminium block), this mkb ain't it. To me it didn't matter. There is enough heft to keep mkb in place, so i'm not hung up on it needing to be a solid metalic block. But if you want to spend more for a more premium look you can just you will be getting further away from a best bang for buck mkb, and edge closer to pricier premium mkbs.
For battery i still don't know how long it will last before needing to recharge. I also don't know how long it takes to fully charge. But so far it's lasting quite a long time, so that is good

if you want knobs i think the Pro F99 has it. I don't particularly care, so i went with non pro.
Overall, due to heavy competition, lots of choice, mkb affordability is in reach for something decent to use. I've seen even cheaper mkbs listed. I didn't try those but i did try Aula F99 and i can vouch for it
