About this deal

The people who benefit the most from 60% keyboards are those who tilt their keyboard when gaming. The smaller size of the 60% layout keeps your keyboard from hanging off of your desk. What’s great about the keyboard is that it also comes with Bluetooth, so you can use it wirelessly if you want. The range is about 10 meters, which should be good enough, and you can pair it with up to three devices. Switching between them is pretty fast, which makes this keyboard perfect for people who want to use it on multiple devices. The 1900mAh battery should last you a good while, which is neat. However, I have several gripes with this keyboard. The first is the sound, there seems to be some faint rattles and pings if you listen closely but it shouldn't be a problem if you don't pay attention to it. The bigger keys have bad stabilizers as they feel restricted and not as linear compared to the smaller keys with no stabilizers. In other words, the smaller keys feel smooth but the bigger ones feel rough; the spacebar is an exception though. The keycaps feel like they are made out of ABS plastic and aren't PBT, but they have texture to them so it will take longer to oil out--it looks different from the fabricated product images. Moreover, the cable is bit short as I needed to use my longer usb-c cable from my TKL and use it. The cable it comes with is not braided and only one colour (blue) is available for lighting. Both options are made from PBT plastic and come in the OEM profile. Only difference is the colorway you choose. You also have RGB lighting which makes the keyboard light up your desk and illuminate the legends on the keycaps for easy typing/gaming in the dark.

The RGB also really pops on this keyboard due to the white color. The RGB has a nice fuzzy glow to that really pops on your desk. A mechanical keyboard is a premium option that offers a whole new world of options up to a user. Due to their increased manufacturing costs and design complexity, they tend to be a lot more expensive than a dome keyboard. Razer PBT keycap smakes upgrading to a new keycap set really affordable and easy, with amix of different color optionsto create a unique style for your mechanical keyboard. Need a specific setup for typing, gaming, or programming? Configure macros and key placements with the Glorious software.If you want to choose an option that will satisfy your 60% needs, this is the keyboard we recommend. If you’re looking to build a custom mechanical keyboard, there are a ton of different options out there. We recently built the DZ61 from the Kebo Store and really enjoy it (actually typing this article on this keyboard).

The Keychron Q4 is a premium 60% keyboard with a high build quality and a very satisfying typing experience. However, its latency is much higher than the SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini Wireless, so the Q4 suits typists and casual gamers better. The high-quality PBT keycaps have a bit of texture, so your fingers won't slip off of them, even during tense, competitive games. They also have clear legends that allow the RGB lighting to shine through them, making them easy to read in darker rooms. Overall, this keyboard's gaming performance is unparalleled at this price point, with its higher-than-average maximum polling rate of 8000Hz and split-millisecond latency for a highly responsive in-game experience. It's also compatible with Corsair's iCUE software, meaning you can sync up your lighting effects with other Corsair products, like your mouse or PC components, for a unified theme in your setup. Usually keycaps have a slight angle to them to make them easier to type on, but on the SK64 they are all the same shape and height. Almost all keycap sets will work for a 60% keyboard, as long as they are compatible with a full-sized keyboard. If you’re the type to play on a lower sensitivity and make long strokes with your mouse, the extra space created by a 60% keyboard will be well recieved.The double-shot design lets your RGB lighting really shine through, so you can add even more color to the mix if you’re feeling it. The keycaps also don’t have any sub-legends to them so you can’t see exactly what letters are on the lower layers. This makes it difficult to use keys that don’t have a dedicated button. For that reason, this keyboard is quite popular for those that play Fortnite, Valorant, Apex, OSU, and other competitive games as the analog switches are great for supreme keyboard control. The SK64 also has hot-swappable optical switches which makes it super easy to remove and replace them with another optical switch variant.

We highly recommend you explore custom keyboards as an option as they are a ton of fun to build. Conclusion The keycaps don’t shine RGB through them, but the PCB offers south-facing RGB LEDs, which look amazing at night. And if you’re feeling spunky, you can find shinethrough keycaps for this keyboard for a nice light show. I stand firmly by my belief that Cherry profile is the best and usually you have to buy the keycaps separately and replace them. Not with the Durgod Venus. It’s worth noting this keyboard is NOT compatible with any other switches on the market, only the Wooting analog switches. You won’t have to spread your hands apart as far when gaming leading to a more comfortable setup. Better Portability

The upside to this keyboard is the fact that it has dedicated arrow keys and a delete key. Both of which are not usually found on a compact 60% keyboard. The keycaps aren’t without flaws though, as we noticed a few keys had uneven legends and were slightly deformed.
