Verdict

Cherry MX 10.0N

7 / 10 Expert Rating

A premium low-profile board whose genuine Cherry-branded switches give it a manufacturing pedigree most low-profile competitors using third-party switches can't claim.

Keychron C3 Pro

7 / 10 Expert Rating

The cheapest legitimate way to get a hot-swappable QMK-capable mechanical keyboard from a known brand.
