I want a Wireless, Back-lit keyboard that ISN'T a 10 keyless like the ones from Corsair, unfortunately that leaves me with 3 choices that I have found so far, this $200 Azio, a $200 Logitech Craft (non-mechanical) or a cheaper ugly piece of garbage Logitech K800 (non-mechanical), these Azio keyboards are literally the ONLY OPTION if you want to have the number pad, Wireless and Backlit in one keyboard that also uses mechanical switches.

So... 60% can pass?

The Azio keyboards are pretty...though way too expensive for my tastes...

Wow, the Rymek is laughable. I could hear how cheap the plastic was. The Retro Classic on the other hand, actually seems like a pretty solid keyboard that you could even use as a daily driver, and with a nice feature set to boot (the extra keycaps in particular is a real nice touch). It's pricey, sure, but if you had the cash and wanted something in that style, it seems like it hits the mark admirably. Damn impressive battery, too. Honestly, I wouldn't mind having one, but then again you'd have to convince me to give up my SK-8135.

 

Heh, Linus hitting 97 WPM on his repeat test with the Razer elicited a "damn you, we're tied!" from me. That's what I got on my second try. Having that built-in typing test at all is a neat feature for Bing. Google doesn't have that.

How I felt watching @3:20 Was really hoping James would show up with a monocle

are all kailh switches like this? o_o

Definitely not. Kailh switchs, the new ones, are regarded as one of the best group of switches you can get these days. You can find the new ones on Novelkeys.xyz

Linus said that if Rymek had Cherry to OEM its keyboard he would be more confident about it but why? Have you tried Cherry's own boards? They're pretty much some switches mounted onto some cardboard held together with a few flimsy plastic brackets. At least their Double shot keycaps were nice, but they sold their tooling for that.

might go on a DIY keyboard project soon, so I'll avoid them if they are ._.

 

EDIT: or maybe I won't avoid, beggars can't be choosers ,_,

Newer Kalih switches are pretty nice, also maybe try gateron switches? Their linear switches are much smoother than Modern Cherry switches.
