Filco Majestouch 2 TKL

8 / 10 Expert Rating

An unchanging, reliable classic for typists who want nothing more than a great Cherry MX board with full NKRO.

Keychron V1

8 / 10 Expert Rating

The best entry point into gasket-mounted custom boards for under $100 — nothing else at this price feels this close to a hobbyist build.
