Need a new good keyboard!

[Sordxyx]

Have had mine for nearly 8 years (nearly half my life) its a sleek dell one nice and compact i believe its a membrane, So yeah i have no idea what counts as a good keyboard but i do like leds! Is there any good keyboards thats white with aqua leds?

 

Format: QWERTY UK

Price range: Around £50

 

Extra info: I hate macro things on the left of the keyboard i like my hand on the edge of the keyboard so when macros are there it kinda disrupts me a lot

The colour is a bit off, but it is a true mechanical keyboard so an upgrade from membrane if you're into that.

There's also a white variant where I think the chassis makes the LEDS look lighter. But I can't find it on the Amazon.co.uk site.

• Country or area (UK)
• Budget (£50)
• Do you need the number pad? (No)
• What do you do mostly on the computer that heavily uses the keyboard? Gaming and internet usage
• Will noise be an issue?   I would rather one be a bit quiet
• Is key height an issue? My keys seem to be a bit tall this is my keyboard with a us layout ( i want a uk layout)

Been looking around and found the SteelSeries Apex M500 problem is its a little bit out of my price zone i like the minimalistic look and blue on it is there any like it?

Yeah if you want quiet mechanical boards won't really be the way to go. They're great (and feel much nicer to type on), but are much louder than membrane.

I agree that Dell membrana keyboard is the best membrana keyboard... Not kidin... =)

 

But regarding mechanical keyboards, I like the one that is lighter to press (red, blue, brown switches). I am old fashion dude that does not know anything regarding the new color switches (speed, gray, etc, etc).

 

Regarding brands, I think that it is not relevant...Only the switches brands... IMHO, Gateron, Cherry, Outemu swtiches are the ones that I trust. =)
