Apex Pro TKL (2023)

I used the fun60 as an example and specifically asked for no one to tell stats on the largest 3 analog kb companies, I literally have an analog rn but it has shit build quality and is falling apart so I want an upgrade, and if I will upgrade I don't want to waste money on a razer, wooting, or steelseries that are overpriced asf, I want to know if there are any genuine downsides to the "budget" analog keyboards compared to the primary companies, for perspective I currently have a 2023 Apex Pro TKL

performance wise, steelseries does have some pretty close numbers to wooting, but I wouldn't buy from them again because of their terrible build quality, my stabs are literally falling off of my steelseries apex pro tkl

I have the steel series apex gen 2. Im debating between wooting and Gravastar. Wooting because it has full keyboard and gravastar only has 75% for the HE butttons

I will say it depends on the game that you play. If you play games that require strafing such as fortnite or valorant I would say it makes a difference on what kind of switches you buy. Hall effect switches are magnetic and allow the sensor to detect the switch anywhere in the key press. This mean they allow you to set when the switch activates and displays on your screen. So you can set them to really fast .1 actuation so that you can press it as fast as possible and it also allows you to have rapid trigger. Rapid trigger basically allows the switch to release and insantly deactivate this allows quick presses. If you are not playing these sort of games it doesnt matter that much on what you get. I would personally just get somethign that is smooth and has good stabalizers so its not too rattaly. I would say go for a hunstman mini if you want a decent overall option and they also come in different sizes as well. If you want a competetive top line I would get a wooting 60he. Apex pro mini and tkl are also rly good options for competetive gaming.

I'm using the Mchose Ace 60 Pro with the TTC Uranus Magnetic SE switches. It's under $50. Simple and does the job. The software has gotten much better since launch. I used to complain about it but it's so much better. Not perfect but it works as it should now. Low bar i know. Sounds decent. Good weight... better than my more expensive Apex pro TKL ( didn't last as long for the price ) There are better so I'm told. TMR switches are modern and the direction gaming Keyboards will be going. One aspect of TMR, it uses less power which means they don't need a big battery in them and can go wireless and last a decent time before recharging. Mine is wired. Something to consider. He may want a clean, wireless Keyboard. I'll post the link to mine. It's pretty inexpensive.

MCHOSE Ace 68 Turbo ... I have the Ace 60 HE pro. I have been impressed. So the Turbo....I mean, it's in the name. Turbo...lol. Must be good. j/k. I got mine $74 delivered. I'm pleasantly surprised by the quality of the hardware and software. Much better than my Apex pro TKL HE

I'm sure there are better, but for the price I've been very satisfied. I didn't want to drop hundreds after my experience with the Steel Series Apex pro TKL. It's literally double and then some. The Mchose has been better. It's a 60% but it's heavier than the TKL and the software, while I'm sure there is better, does the job for me. Switchable profiles. All the Hall effects goodies. I don't even use the 8k polling... I don't feel the difference in my play style. the only thing I'd say is better on the Apex pro software was the macro programming. It's very rudimentary on the mchose. It works.. but maybe it's the way I set it up. I'm used to Logitech so it may not the way i do it.

Really struggling. I wanna buy a new gaming keyboard because my Apex Pro TKL just isn't working well anymore. So, I wanna ask for suggestions. I want a gaming keyboard that is nice, but no wild custom build or anything. Just a solid and simple keyboard. Willing to go for most prices just give me recommendations for like budget, mid-tier, and high-tier prices please. Thank you this is urgent
