Mechanical keyboard recommendation needed

[tadasZ]

Hi,

 

i’m thinking of getting myself a new keyboard, currently i’m using Logitech MX Keys Mini, lovin’ it, but think I want to try mechanical one and I just love the look of those cute custom mechanical keyboards. Could anyone recommend one? or give any hints where to start looking as I don’t even know where to start, i tried googling “custom mechanical keyboard”, but it’s just too overwhelming..

 

my requirements/preferences would be:

- works on Mac and PC like “MX Keys” have buttons marked opt/start, cmd/alt (no need for device switching ability)

- wireless (with a dongle), but i’d consider wired too

- TKL or smaller, height wise "low" would be preferable, those full size ones are just too large, but with arrow keys (saw some without, i’m not vi user)

- changeable switches (Cherry?) 

- Shipping to Europe (not uk)

 

Looked and Keychron and NuPhy, but maybe something more exotic exists? :))))

thank you, this one look cool, but also looks really really tall, i'd like the frame to be as minimal as possible, could even be "invisible" - just the keys on top of a plate. Or maybe they are all with tall and bulky frames because of some limitation?

almost all of the good keyboards are high profile
