Wireless keyboard recommendation

[K0stas]

Goodday!

 

I am looking for a wireless tenkeyless mechanical keyboard with backlighting, media controls and long range (2 meters max when using it in the living room) and I need your help picking one.

 

So far, the only keyboards I found that met my requirements are the Logitech g915 and the razer Razer DeathStalker V2 Pro. I watched reviews for both keyboards and read several threads and articles about them but I still can't decide.

 

On the one hand, the logitech has twice the battery of the razer and can still maintain its wireless capabilities even when it's charging which would make it the only choice for me but from what I hear the keycaps are the worst and not even close to the quality standards you should expect from a 200€ keyboard. There are cases of keycaps breaking or even the letters fading out over time cause of the awful paint they used. Worst part is that it's extremely difficult to find replacement keycaps...

 

Is the razer a better choice in my case even though the battery is smaller and it cannot be used wireless when it's charging?

 

I am also open to suggestions so if you have something else to recommend I would be happy to hear it!

 

Thank you in advanced,

Kostas

40 hour battery life isn't bad, it can just be inconvenient at times if you forget to charge it every 1 or 2 nights. Keycaps breaking or fading out is bad. REALLY bad. So my personal recommendation is the Razer DeathStalker.

Thank you for replying! I have never used a wireless keyboard before so I don't know if the battery life will be any inconvenience at all. It's good to hear that 40 hours is not that bad.

A wireless keyboard is an essential piece of equipment for a tidy workplace. 
It should have a long battery life,dependable connection, comfortable typing,
 and creat a comfort device.

Good things to include in one but there’s no suggestion.

I have no big idea.
But I think Keychron K10 can bring a good result for you.

Looks like a great keyboard, it's even customizable and cheap but it's missing media controls which are essential for my use-case
