Keychron - K10 Version 2 Full Size 104 Keys Bluetooth Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

V6 wired / V6 Max if you want wireless (also comes with the problem of built-in battery that will eventually degrade / fail). K10 Pro is a good basic board, but... it's basic. No gasket - it is much harsher with less dampening than the V6 / Q6. I use mine as a backup / testbed board for new switches and keycaps. Also, no knob.

Keychron V6 Max or Q6 with Outemu Silent Ice Snow (linear) or Silent Tom (tactile) switches. K10 (I have a Pro) is decent but very basic, no gasket and no knob, a simple tray mounted board. I have Outemu Silent Peach V2s in that. Edit: the quietest silent switches I tried are Outemu Ice Snow and TTC Frozen V2. Both are 40-45g linears, I replaced the springs with 60g ones. Haimu Heartbeat is incredibly loud (for a silent), so is Kailh Whale TTC Bluish and anything that uses those weird plastic bits on the stem instead of silicone pad inserts.

I have two Keychron Q6s, a Q9, a K10 Pro and an Akko 3098B Plus. One for every mood :) Also about 1000 unused switches of all sorts (linear, tactile, silent and non-silent) and 15 keycap sets in the drawer. The K10 Pro for $100 is just as good for work / game as the more expensive ones, the difference is just how they sound and how luxurious they feel (metal case, gasket mount).

Keychron K10 Pro. It has regular reds, silent reds, and browns. I own the silent reds version and I love mine for work. Bought mine for $80 on Prime Day sale, I bet you could get a similar deal on Black Friday.

I got the hype for it when I got my first Keychron, the K10 Pro, but I had just scratched the surface on Mech Keyboards. After using 100%’s for my entire life, I wanted to try something different. I bought the Aula F75 first because I wanted to try 75%, i liked the color scheme, and it was cheap (~$45). There’s a lot of things I like about this board better than the K10 Pro but I realized that the way I type is uncommon (self-taught) and I use the right shift to capitalize all of my letters instead of the left. I have some other areas of concern with the Aula F75, but the main lesson I learned was that my favorite layout size is 80% (TKL). I am now asking for what I am hoping will be my endgame (dream board) for Christmas, which is the MCHOSE GX87. I plan on customizing it with new keycaps and potentially new switches (unless I really like the ones it comes with) as well as disconnecting the battery to run it wired. I really think this board is perfect for me because it’s the only one that I’ve found that checks every single box of what I want in the perfect keyboard.

Keychron K10 HE? Otherwise wait for Lemokey to launch a full size HE board. It's Keychron's gaming brand lol. The L1 HE I have sounds a whole lot better than the other Keychron K series HE boards I have. Unfortunately, even Keychron's Q HE boards all have south facing RGBs...it's slim pickings for you 100% stans already, adding north-facing backlighting adds a whole new level of complexity lol. Otherwise, grab something like a Lemokey L1 HE and a separate NUM pad?

Oh yeah, the base K10 does have north-facing LEDs. So does the K10 V2 QMK (the better option because customisation). If you want the wireless features of the Max series, go for the K10 HE (hall-effect). Limits your switch options to Gateron double-rail HE switches, but they're good switches, and you obviously get all the benefits of HE, which is great if you like to tinker.

I've had a good experience with my K4 HE, and that's been great. I'd much rather use a Q HE series or a Lemokey L or P HE keyboard, because the aluminium chassis sounds and feels a decent bit better, but the K HE series is great nonetheless. The K10 HE is a solid affordable option for full-size HE.

You can avoid a lot of the nonsense by going with something like the K10 HE. HE sensors are less prone to failure in the first place, and the issues were mostly related to the PC plates on the Q Max series. Keychron's support should be a lot better than it is. I've spoken to the PR people about support policy, and it seems like their ideology is to take care of customers, but I think they just don't have enough capable people to deal with a high volume of support requests.

Keychron Q6 HE. HE switches are the new hot stuff for gaming. Alternatively, K10 HE.

I like the Keychron K lineup for a more reasonably priced KB, and their Q lineup for high end. I have a Q10 Max and I adore it. Sitting behind me is the K10 Pro. The K10 Max is on sale for 140 right now. Don't think you'd get much better than that for less.

I have a keychron k10 pro and my better half had an epomaker brick80, I honestly like hers better, the sound is absolutely perfect.

I like my keychron k10 pro with glorious translucent caps. It's a customizable workhouse with rainbow lights

keychron k10 QMK v2 and pick the hotswappable model. not a ton of fullsized boards in general, much less with north facing shinethrough

This is a fine answer - depending on budget... QMK/VIA more than doubles my price though, sadly. The AJazz Ak820_max_plus_retro is a 75% keyboard. I wish I had bought a TKL layout because it doesn't drop standard keys - can easily add a numpad but you can't add a direct key for ScrollLock/Printscreen etc which I used extensively for shortcuts. If you have to press Fn key to access ScrollLock, then any kind of Meta_ shortcut is disabled, because that just 'locks WIN' - for gamers and annoying for anyone else. However, the abovementioned switches make it instantly office friendly with a familiar tactile bump, similar to many laptop and membrane keyboards. The keyboard cost me ฿1499, whilst the cheapest available QMK keyboards around here... I was tempted by the Keychron K10 - full sized, silent keys, but ฿4,400 is just too much over the price of ฿1,490 which can type REALLY nicely already... The silent tactile ('feels like an upgraded version of a Logitech K270 or similar OEM profile with tactility offered by silicone domes) switches cost me $11 US so the total price (฿1,490 plus ฿365) was still under $50 US. So you do pay a fair bit extra for software.

You could get the Keychron K10 HE to get exactly the layout you have now, or the K8 HE is the TKL version. I have a K2 HE and can confirm it's fantastic.

Go for the Keychron K10 HE off Amazon. It's currently $107, but you at least know you're getting a qaulity brand. I recently bought a Red Thunder K65 off amazon for $55. Gasket and all that, but only reviews seemed to be "Vine free product review" people. Then I also bought a K2 HE for $100. Felt night and day difference on quality. Returned the Red Thunder that night.
