Royal Kludge - S98 Wireless Hot-Swappable RGB Keyboard

F99 pro side backlit variant for 8.5k would be the best bet imo - Has double the battery capacity of the F99 with opaque keycaps worth 7k. Pro also comes with a knob. Alternatively there is a "7 day manufacturing defect warranty only" RK S98 on Genesis pc for 6.4k. Comes with a LCD screen and knob. I got a similar unit from stacksKB for 4.2k a month ago.

MX keys mechanical is good if you want a low profile board. I tried nuphy and really wanted to like it but it wasn’t for me. Still would recommend, it was very high quality and a very nice keyboard, we just weren’t a match. My daily drivers now are a royal kludge S98 for my work computer, and their southpaw version L98 for my personal computer. The pros are it was the only mechanical southpaw I could find that was reasonably priced, cons are that it doesn’t play well with Mac’s.

S98 user for about 6 months now. Pre ordered it with my first salary so it was 6.5k back then. Pretty solid KB if you maintain it. It has Chartreuse switches which I have no complain with, exactly what I wanted(not clacky at all as thoccy it gets). There's low chance for customisation, but it didn't matter for me. BTW, my PBT keykaps have gotten a bit dull and the white is kinda warm yellowish, if anyone knows a way of shining it back up please let me know.

I really like my Royal Kludge mechanical keyboard. Can’t remember the model number but it feels nice!

I think it was an S98, but I imagine their whole line is pretty nicely made to be honest. I don’t think I have a bad thing to say about the S98.

I don't know but I really use royal kludge keyboards for my professional setup. Maybe you can try that out too. Royal kludge RK S98. Hot swap Pbt keycaps 98 keys Wireless Rk chartreuse switch

I had a rks98 for a year, great experience. I bought an aula f75 max recently, again great experience but sounds a bit better. I can recommend these two

I had similar thoughts when I built my PC, ended up with a royal kludge and haven't looked back, first one died on me, drink spilled on it not by me. Immediately ordered a second one it is worth the $80 and I don't see any reason to spend more for a full mechanical keyboard

I had a rk years ago and it was fine, until a key failed. I have a keychron now and love it. But I'm also not a small keyboard person. For the price it will probably work fine for a few years, but also probably good for someone who wanted to try 60% and see how they like it.

Razer keyboards hot trash. RK royal kludge is a much better option.
