*RESOLVED* <$50 80 or 60% mechanical keyboard

srar9800

When I go to lan I want a small keyboard that is cheap, the ones without a numpad.

I would prefer blue switches or red

Less than 50 dollars

Any ideas?

*EDIT*

SHIT I FORGOT

The keyboard has to have a Swedish layout ._.

Or maybe I can remapp, whatever

Tenkeyless, minus more keys.

 

And I think that you won't be able to do better than a half-mechanical keyboard, @srar9800

Only if you're willing to spend an extra 15 dollars, look up the Rantopad MXX on eBay. They have the same feeling of cherry and you have a choice between blue or red. It's tenkeyless and the keycaps don't feel cheap. Only if you're willing to pay $65 USD.

100% = Normal, Full-sized keyboard.

80% = TKL, Tenkey-less. Without the numberpad.

60% = Even smaller. Without numberpad, F1~12 keys and the like.

How about something like this?  I'm not an expert on mechanical keyboards, but it's the one I have.

That's not 60%.

 

And looks like it has some pretty strong claims for its price point.

What do you mean by claims for its price?

It looks like it'll do the job well

It does.  Granted, I haven't tried pouring water on it like in the product page.  Even if it was some big name brand like Corsair saying it was water resistant/proof, I wouldn't pour water all over it.

 

They are actual mechanical switches, I can attest that much.  Also, it has pretty decent weight.  More than my old membrane keyboard I was using.  All in all, I don't think it can be beat for $35.

It's clickity, it's clackity.  The switches say "switch master."  But I've never used Cherry MX switches, or any other mechanical switches.  But yes, it is a mechanical keyboard, feels like one, and is for sure clickity clacky.

So if im not mistaken, you own one?

Could you perhaps send a video preview?

Yeah, sure, just give me a little while to make one.

 

And it's uploading to YouTube now, I'll link it once it's done.

Something like this? 

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01A9QOLV8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I bought one a few weeks ago (with the Outemu Blacks) and the only problem I have with this keyboard is the cheap feeling keycaps but they are solid as it they won't just break so this could be an option :P 

Looking at my signature are we now? Well too bad there's nothing here...
