Hello guys, need some help.

I saw my colleague using Keychron K6 and I'm starting to fall in love. And I plan to get one. However, Keychron has way so many model, ( Q, K, C) and range with various number 1,2,3, etc .

So its a bit hard for me as well as take a really long time to research each and everyone of them. I am fine with/without keypad. And as long the item is best buck. I am fine. Kindly suggest any good model for me to make some comparison.

Or if there is any better keyboard other than Keychron, feel free to share with me. Thanks!

You do need to specify your budget for some recommendation

Alright. Let me put a base here, RM500 ~ RM700. of course if cheaper with good quality is fine as well. But i have this budget.

.. er you're like telling us, 'i saw my friend having a new girl friend. i would like to have one also, but i am lazy to pick one, because all are so pretty; well, i don't need her to have big boobs, but as long as she is cheap, i'm on.'

seriously, we all have different taste. i will suggest a black q2 bare bone, without knob, because i'm ok with the form factor, layout, and i don't use knob.

edit: by the way, keychron covers form factors from 40% to full-size. it's a good place for beginners to start own research.

Haha, sorry my bad. Cause the last time I bought mechanical keyboard is corsair K series cherry mx red. So my knowledge is like until red, blue, brown. Sorry if I offend you.

For me I also will not use the knob as well. I can do some researches my end. It just that I have to research from K1 till K14 and then C1, etc. So if there is good recommendation for your expertise, I would very welcome. If not, then I will just continue to slowly research all these keyboards or asking via other portal. Thanks!

aiyo don't apologize. it's just a dumb joke. i'm glad that you can take it smile.gif

it's just that the more hints that you can give to us, those who know can give you better options, e.g., budget, form factor, layout, switch hotswapping support, qmk firmware support, case type (plastic, metal), detachable or fixed cable, wired/wireless, with foam or not, fully-built or barebone, etc.

edit: i know the list is lengthy, but those are basic options that you can get at keychron at least, depending on availability.

I can only give you those that I know, cause i can be honest with you, almost half of the thing you listed here, I have no clue at all haha.

budget: RM500 - RM700 ( can top up more if needed)
case type: plastic and metal are fine for me, I'm not going to bring keyboard anywhere. so weight is not an issue.
detachable or fixed cable, wired/wireless: I think its together i believe. I prefer having both wired/wireless feature, if there is such option, for cable I think usb type-C port is my prefer choice.

other than that, I am not really sure for now haha. But one thing for sure, I prefer gateron red. biggrin.gif

And one more thing, i know there is one without keypad, another one with keypad. Actually I'm fine without keypad as well. Though I have been using keyboard with keypad. But I welcome to have a change if keyboard is good yo.
