Verdict
Ducky One 3 SF
8 / 10 Expert Rating
A compact enthusiast favorite whose stock keycap quality and acoustics genuinely punch above its price, without full QMK/VIA programmability.
Keychron K2 HE
8 / 10 Expert Rating
One of the only wireless Hall Effect boards on the market, and it doesn't meaningfully compromise the magnetic-switch feature set to get there.
