Another MX Red ABS-key board with a non-standard bottom row? I'll give you $60 tops.

Unsilenced and unlubed MX red + cheap ABS keycaps + cheap g@m3r font + RGB + "premium" price = instant trash

I just can't get on board with red switches. They are touted as one of the best gaming switches, but I just can't do it when tactility for typing is still important.

Probably going to be overpriced despite there being significantly better keyboards out there. ROG tax.

@NCC1701D
almost electrical typewriter had any feedback on their KB, and millions probably billions on this planet
were used in offices without any problems, incl ppl that really could type fast.
properly learned 10 finger typing (blind) doesnt require tactile feedback, and i learned typing on mechanicals (TR).
