    Just like the other person, I have no idea about the brands listed, but I’ve been looking for a numpad recently. Looked it up and seems like this is going to fit my needs perfectly. Thanks for sharing!

    Never heard of any of those brands but I dig the look of the blacked-out one in the middle. Are the keycaps shine-through with per-key RGB?

    These look awesome! I’m curious what your favourite switches are out of the bunch? I’m also interested in a comparison between the Boba U4T vs MMD princess, if you have any thoughts to share!

      This is a good question. the bobas have cost me 4x what I paid for the princess, and part of me might like the princess more, they have a more noticeable bump. My only complaint about the princess switch is that they are very clacky. I have swapped out the springs in the bobas to 45g and it has made them feel more poppy and emphasises the tactility.

    i gotta say: Puddings are somewhat nice, but always too gamer.

    I reckon, “Pudding refined” with milky white bottom and Cherry style legends would look nice on most keebs.

    I really liked the feeling of the mechanical keyboards. I’m a newbie at this and I bought one, and got pain in wrists within a few days. So had to stop using it and go back to my almost flat Logitech.

    It seems it’s required to use palm rests to have a good experience?

      Maybe you just need switches with a lower weight requirement to depress then?

          Was trying to think what a tactical switch was for a second there, assumed it was a gaming thing, then realised you meant tactile, lol.

          Those are my bag, great feeling without being too loud.

      By design, mechs are quite a bit taller, because the switches are taller.

      Unless you’re a “floating” typist, I would recommend a palmrest.
