I think you shouldn't buy anything above the katana x2 , it's just enough clack to get you going
This is literally copy of evofox katana x2 I literally own one lmao
I would say you would like the ronin more than katana
Ant esports printed deskmat speed type 900x400cm best for 300-400rs . Most of the Keyboards under 2k are very similar tho my recommendations - katana x2 , katana s mini wired , redragon k617 , if you want wireless spend 200 extra get katana s mini wireless
I am just gonna paste the document I made when I was researching keyboards. It's probably useless to you but it's nice to know what's available. I would also suggest to not go with cheaper (<2500) Keyboards as their QC is mid at best and can be a bit or miss. -Full sizes- TVS gold bharat - Classic, Durable, Highly dust resistant, No backlight, no aesthetics, purely for office work, no n key rollover. No hotswap Acer Nitro G( And similar) - Chinese OEM keyboards rebranded , most aren't hot swap, Acer one is gasket mounted tho. Cheap (~₹2000), Yes levels of RGB to the point it can be used like a light source. AULA S series - Eg S2022, lower end offering from aula, good considering the budget but no customization. Also the wire is wonkydoodle clay like , I tried it for 3 days and then stopped. Portronics has a similar keyboard at similar cost but stay away from portronics keyboards. AULA FXXXX series -F2058 ,F3287 , better build quality than the S series but not as good as the F75. Comes around ₹2000 RK /MCHOSE/KEYCHRON - The full sizes variants are so good but so expensive (I only have tried the RKS98) -Not Full sizes - This is sweet spot for me, no one uses that Numpad unless you're an accountant or something EvoFox - There's the Ronin which is considered best budget keeb under 3k. There's the cheaper katana too . QC issues are there but warranty system is good. There are mini series but no volume knob . There's also the new X75 but idk how it is. AULA F75 - Really good keyboard, loved by many. 75% keyboard with a lot of switches options solid long term investment ngl. AULA M75 - It's basically the a keyboard which tries to be F75 but doesn't have enough stat points to upgrade it's build quality. Tri mode connection has problems. AJAZZ AK820- The most balanced keyboard- value for money. 8000 mah battery is lovely. RK 75/88/100- The benchmark of a good keyboard. Reliable. Warranty is good ( although most people don't require it.) --Other options-- Barebones - Can be good value if you get the switches and keycap used. And in the end it'll be YOUR keyboard. Although you could do this with any hotswappable keyboard lol. Hand wired - DIY get some 16 gauge copper cables, switches and a microcontroller and other smaller wires. JK don't build a keyboard if you are new . 60%s - Super compact , i love them . But there's a learning curve . Avoid if you absolutely need Arrow keys and the volume knob HE keyboards - Magnetic , Purely made for shaving off the latencies which are useful in eSports (Banned in pro eSports). Most aren't fun to type on but you don't buy HE keyboards to type .
Buy Evo Fox TKL , its much better
