Honestly not too sure why, I do think it’s also called a 96%. But not totally sure, still new to all of this

I've been debating on this or the keychron q5 or k4. Can't make up my mind. Never heard of this board before but it has just what I need - the 96 or 1800 or full size layout, the knob, hotswappable, and wireless.

SmallT808 OP t1_jabu8py wrote

I love the knob, I find myself using it quite a bit and the sheer girth of it makes it easy to turn. I was debating on the q5 as well, but I didn’t like how big the bezels were and I wasn’t looking to spend that much since this is my first board. I’d highly recommend this if aluminum isn’t your main priority!

Thanks for info. The Canadian pricing is absurdly high though ($230 CAD; $177). Alternatively about $120 USD from Epomaker website.

Honestly I was looking at keychain aswell. They make amazing keyboards (for a budget) but I needed wireless and I don't like using Bluetooth.

it's so annoying keychron doesn't offer a lot in 2.4ghz right?

Bluetooth is really dog shit when it comes to batterylife, 2.4ghz lasts me weeks/months on a single charge with my rk.

100%

I'm a very very low impact user and my 2.4ghz is currently sitting on about 4 months ona single charge.

When I find a good wireless tkl board with a chunky knob (I love the th96 knob) I plan on getting my first second board lol.

I’m using Bluetooth right now and wow I didn’t know using the 2.4ghz makes the battery last so long! I might have to switch to that

I only used my keyboard about 2-3 hours a day though so factor that in lol

This former member of the 1800 club has moved on to self-designed split spacebar orthos.
They have all the same functionality of an 1800, including the numpad, but fit into a 60% case.

Just go on Amazon, it came fully assembled barebones. All I needed to do was pop in the switches and keycaps

Thanks! I play MTG and had an extra play mat lying around. Thought I’d use it. Do you play?

If you're on windows, Win+shift+S is so much better than print screen you won't even miss the key.
