Verdict
Keychron C3 Pro
7 / 10 Expert Rating
The cheapest legitimate way to get a hot-swappable QMK-capable mechanical keyboard from a known brand.
Razer BlackWidow V4 X
7 / 10 Expert Rating
A solid, no-frills entry into Razer's ecosystem, but the lack of hot-swap sockets is a real limitation at this point in the market.
