😳BEST BUDGET KEEB??✨

omg guys this keeb damn lit. say reals the sound is so nice and even the space bar doesn’t sound bad as most budget keeb would! I bought this in Style Vision Computer Store @ The Mall, Mid Valley Southkey for RM 299 and it’s worth!! You can test it out in the shop too!

oh and the switches are hot-swappable and factory lubbed! so you can switch out the switches if you want to! the base also feels sturdy and their existing keycaps don’t feel too cheap!

If you're searching for a budget-friendly keyboard at Mid Valley with great sound, this one should definitely be on your list. From my experience, many budget keyboards struggle with noisy keys, but this model pleasantly surprised me with its well-dampened sound profile. The highlight for me is the hot-swappable switches feature. This means you can easily customize your typing experience by swapping out switches without soldering—ideal for enthusiasts who want to experiment. Additionally, the factory lubrication on the switches ensures smooth and quieter keystrokes straight out of the box. Another nice touch is the build quality; the base feels robust, adding to durability and typing comfort. The keycaps included don't feel cheap either, which is unusual for this price range. As a bonus, the keyboard comes with a matching cord and even a cleaning kit, making it practical for keeping your setup neat. If you’re around the Mall at Mid Valley Southkey, you can test it firsthand at Style Vision Computer Store before deciding. For anyone on a budget yet keen on quality sound and versatility, this keyboard offers excellent value and I highly recommend checking it out.
