Best Keyboard so far!!!

I don't like writing reviews but I do like reading them lol.
What I am trying to say is that don't sleep in this keyboard. I even liked it more than my Lemokey L3.
I got the one with the side printed keys and banana switches. This is my 3rd keychron keyboard.

Amazing Keyboard

Just received this board today, and I'm absolutely blown away! I've got a Razr Black Widow, an MX Keys, Keychron K1 v5, and a Ducky One 3 Daybreak, and this board is far better than ALL of them. The build quality is outstanding, the sound is incredible, and the typing experience is delightful. The Bluetooth and dingle receiver worked immediately with both my MacBook and PC. If you're in the market for a mechanical keyboard, there's no need to bother looking at anything else. Buy this and enjoy!

Amazing

This is exactly what I was looking for. A nice sounding & feeling keyboard that wasn't too expensive, and didn't require copious amounts of research and assembly. If it's in your budget, I'd highly recommend this keyboard.
