I've had a cooler master keyboard with cherry mx browns (my first mech) for a few years but looking for a change.

They seem really popular so I'll check them out. Thanks!

Keychrons are great. If you want some other brands to look at there is also Akko/Monsgeek. Mikit and Iqunix are decent too with quirky designs if you want something different.

I'll look into this. The fact that it's USBC would be nice since I have to use micro USB right now haha. Do they include basic keycaps or I'm guessing you have to pick the ones you want separately? Thank you for the suggestion!

Pretty sure you’ll have to provide your own caps.

I’m a big fan of Ducky and quite a few of theirs fall into that category. My current daily is a Mecha Mini 2 with silent reds. It’s been a great keyboard for several years now.

I currently have the Ducky One 2 RGB (mechanicalkeyboards.com link) and really like it. I got it because it has programmable macros, which allows me to use the caps lock key as my left control key instead. That was the main reason I got it.

And Varmilo has some beautiful keyboards too!
