Currently using a Keychron Q5, paid about $230.
Damn. I got my K5 Pro on sale for $125 (IIRC). But I love it, and would pay more if I needed to in the future.
Probably $250 US with the customizations. Probably $100 for the Keychron V5 at the time. Upgraded the switches several times to figure out what I liked probably $50 there. And the right shine through keycaps from Etsy was another $100 or so.
I spent roughly 300 EUR. Self built.

- Split
- Concave
- Ortho
$40, Red Dragon, and it came with a mouse pad, mouse, and headset.
The mouse is super basic and the headset was garbage, but the keyboard is the same quality and tactile-ness as the Corsair K70 I used to have, and that thing was like close to $200.
Thanks, their keypad looks good
I have a red dragon too, but it no longer works because some of the keys sometimes fail to register
$120 keyboard from HyperX (before they got bought by HP).
$120 is the limit of my budget for a keyboard. That being said, I am never going to membrane keyboards (if I can help it).
It’s a Varmilo keyboard that I paid about $100 for, got a good black friday deal on it.
$250 realforce r2 topre switches 55g
I got mine for $3 (I bought it at the thrift store)
$120, Wireless Varmilo. Superb keyboard, except that the super key is waaaay too difficult to reach.
$80. It’s that 8bitdo C64-style one. I am a big fan. Love the feel of the box white v2 switches combined with spherical keycaps.

What model is it? Where did you get it?

For my daily drivers I have a pair of Kinesis Advantage 2’s, purchased in 2007, still kicking.
A couple of years ago I hit up their email support with what I thought was a stuck key. They (correctly) diagnosed it as a failing switch, helped me identify another that was failing, they figured out that I’m handy with a soldering iron, and mailed me a handful of new switches and other swag free of charge.
$370/ea 18 years ago, and I’m pretty sure they MSRP for the same price today.
Nearly all of the labels have worn off of the keys. I never mounted the fabric palm pads, and the plastic palm areas are now mirror polished from use. I also modded them both with a Thinkpad style nub mouse.
Things I’d change, but given I’m pretty good at modding and haven’t done them they are relatively minor:
- Less clicky switches for the one I take to work. I already tend to pound the keys, and I make a noticable racket on the rare occasions I’m in the office.
- USB-C connections, including PD on the built in hub
- Qi2 wireless charging in the blank gap in the middle
- A smarter programmable controller like the the nice!nanos on my corne
I’m seriously considering a DataHand-like keeb like the Svalboard
Impressive
Ducky 10keyless. Bought over 10 years ago for like $150
