Redragon - K715 PRO

Your best option would be the [Nuphy Air60](https://nuphy.com/products/air60-v2), a slim wireless 60% with a "minila" layout that shifts the "Z" row 1/4 key width to the right to give you room to fit arrow keys and a delete key in the lower right corner. It is almost exactly what you're asking for, the low profile switches are quiet but not silent. It blows your budget out of the water though. The RK61 QMK/VIA version is not bad. The legacy version is awful^(*), though, and the new version is wired-only. The RK R65 QMK/VIA is a 65%, only very slightly larger, but it has separate arrow keys and wireless support. * https://www.amazon.com/RK-ROYAL-KLUDGE-R65-Mechanical/dp/B0D5HCQPY8 For silent switches, you'll have to spend a little more and swap them out yourself. I recommend the Outemu Silent Yellow Jade, you can get a package of 70 for under $20 even with Amazon prices which is enough for any of these boards. You can also get the CIDOO QK61 or Redragon^(**) K717 Alcor and configure them with mod-tap arrows, which lets you use the right-hand shift/alt/win/ctl keys as arrows when you tap them. * https://www.amazon.com/Redragon-K717-Programmable-Mechanical-Dampening/dp/B0DL578X3K * https://www.amazon.com/MechLands-QK61-Programmable-Swappable-Mechanical/dp/B0D8VMD3P3 [More info](https://github.com/ArgentStonecutter/keyboards/blob/main/via-boards.md)... Moving up a little bit in size, you might find you can fit a 75% board in your bag. The RK R75 and Redragon K715 are decent options. * https://www.amazon.com/RK-ROYAL-KLUDGE-R75-Mechanical/dp/B0D3GZYN1P * https://www.amazon.com/Redragon-K715-Programmable-Mechanical-Dedicated/dp/B0DKXLDJ24 For these boards you will need a 90 pack of silent switches. Finally, you can build a Minila layout board from parts, using the YMDK DK61 or DKKB DK6064 PCBs. This is a bit adventurous though. [More info](https://github.com/ArgentStonecutter/keyboards/tree/main/layouts/yr6095)... ----- ^(* All the legacy Royal Kludge boards are pretty awful, the new QMK/VIA boards seem to be a bit of an about turn. That would be the *QMK/VIA* versions of the RK61, RK R65, RK R75, and RK R87) ^(** Same caveat as Royal Kludge, only the K715 and K717 are good boards)

There's only two Redragon boards I would recommend, the k715 and k717. They're QMK/VIA and don't use the awful native Redragon software. One of the best options for Europeans are the oddly-named Sharkoon Skiller SGK50, they're legit QMK/VIA boards available in 60%, 75%, and 96% form factors, with plastic or wooden cases. I haven't had a chance to try one myself because they're not available in the US. Eg: https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Sharkoon-Skiller-Gaming-Keyboard-Gateron/dp/B0DHCF13Q6

The only decent Redragon boards are the K717 and K715.

The software for Redragon's legacy boards ranks somewhere between awful and appalling.

The K715 PRO is a great keeb but it's not tri-mode, it's USB and BT only. I totally love mine, though.

Got a hold of their Devarajas hot swappable mechanical keyboard on closeout from Micro Center a couple weeks ago. Pleased so far.
