well the Logitech G502 Hero is a great mouse... I have a G502 Hero and a Yunzii YZ75 Keyboard, any Royal Kludge or Yunzii mechanical keyboard is good - they're cheap and well-made.

The g502 hero is a mouse I've been considering however I can't get the keyboard in my country unless I get it through Ali express (unreliable from personal experiences) or pay a lot on fees to get it in. Is there any other model/brand of keyboard you can recommend?

Can you narrow it down a bit for us? Like, what are your requirements and nice-to-haves?

• ANSI (US) layout ok, or do you need ISO?
• Size, full-size, TKL, 60%?
• regular or low-profile
• wired/wireless
• region and what vendors are available to you

The usual suspects here are Keychron, Nuphy, Monsgeek/Akko, Royal Kludge. There are however a lot of cheap but good options in the 75% range, like Yunzii or Womier, XVX, Rainy, etc.

 

Regardless of the keyboard you finally chose, one of the features to look out for is "hotswap switches", meaning the switches are soldered in but socketed. Makes replacing them down the line much easier and cheaper. Also means that if you are not happy with the stock choice, you can just invest $25-$35 for new switches instead of buying a completely new keyboard.

To narrow it down as much as possible.
Has to have AT LEAST english letters and be at least 75% keyboard as 60% are not comfortable to me
Stuff like wires or profile dont bother me But stuff like media keys or arm/wrist rest would be a benefit 
Regions is greece and my amazon like vendor is skroutz.gr

OK, so everything EU should be fine then.

 

Keychron, Nuphy, Akko all should deliver to greece.

Easy and relatively affordable is the Keychron V series, V MAX or K Pro, like these:

https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-v6-qmk-custom-mechanical-keyboard

https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k10-pro-qmk-via-wireless-mechanical-keyboard

 

You can find them also at keygem: https://keygem.com/products/keychron-v6-barebone-ansi?variant=44373525430540

Would need to buy your own keycaps and switches though. Plus I don't know how expensive shipping will be, caseking.de apparently charges outrageous sums for shipping to greece.

 

I had a look at skroutz.gr, but from the looks of it the prices there are insane (could be that I am missing something here, never shopped in/for greece before).

i personally recommend the ROG Keris wireless, you can change the switches of the mouse and replace them if they break with undoing two screws (doesnt void warranty as far as i know), has good lighting, comes with interchangable side buttons, weighs in at around 79g, has 78h of battery life without rgb and 56h with rgb on. only meh thing is the software,which is armoury crate. otherwise i can only recommend this mouse and the finger gripping parts are double shot pbt
