deskthority

Clears are not an option. I've settled on these two as they have the features and size I want.
I'm thinking Blue and red for myself.

I'm curious which switches are most popular in smaller form factors.

As the title says, I'm looking to pick up two new keyboards to replace my current dying model.
My current one is the Keycool 87 (browns)

the Rapoo V500s for £32
Noppoo Lolita Spyder 87 from £25 without or £35 with rainbow backlighting
or the ducky shine 2 for £50 with browns and blue LED

Has anyone on here had experience with the Noppoo Lolita Spyder 87, LBOTS or KEYCOOL?
LBOTS or KEYCOOL are top sellers domestically.

It is much harder to make fake computer components that are not obviously fake to buyers. This is why you need to read ...

They are much cheaper buying from Taobao and having lived in China for 5 years I've never had an issue with my orders. a Ducky Shina will cost around £50 with brown switches and blue backlight, will it be noticlably better than the other boards that cost £25-35?

I have been using Microsoft ergonomic keyboards for a number of years and I'm on my second 4000 series. The cord is coming apart and I'm in need of a new board. I'm in the UK with high prices so I'm looking to buy a board from China. I do game but I'm also working on my PhD thesis so writing is ...
