A cheap 'tenkeyless' keyboard

kration · 2 Jun 2017 at 12:44

I'm looking for a reasonably priced 'tenkeyless' keybard. Wired or wireless are fine.

I'll use it for typing and gaming, though I'm not that bothered about gaming performance. A lot of them are aimed at gaming with a price tag to match. Any recommendations?

Most of the pricey ones are pricey because they use mechanical keys which many people prefer, sure there's a gaming or RGB LED tax on some. Are you looking for a reasonably priced TKL mech keyboard (and which case any preference on type?) or just any TKL keyboard?

I'm looking for any TKL keyboard. As long as it has a UK key layout (a lot of the ons I've seen have a US layout)

You could check the usual drop shipping sites.

I've checked the usual sources and it just seems to be US keyboard layouts.

TBH, I'm just looking for a brand or model name that I can google.

im using one of these US layout. motospeed k87s got it in a sale for £38, was going to get a Ducky but got this to tide me over until it was in stock and now im not going to bother, a great little keyboard, its my 3rd mech both my others that were top end lasted until just after warranty run out and went faulty considering this is a quarter of the price its a no brainer really.

Edit i run it with all the RGB crap off just with backlit keys in green.

Check out the Ajazz AK33, I've got the full size AK60 version and is quite nice. The Red switches they use are a bit lighter than the Cherry Reds I am used to but was still a solid board.

I'd only recommend this keyboard if you like mechanical keys...that snap off if you look at them the wrong way.

I speak from experience.

I still like my Coolermaster QuickFire TK. Main complain is the cable, just be careful to not yank it out. SO far so good, but it's not exactly 'secure'.
