I think I'm finally starting to understand you guys the numbers tell me
that y'all really like cheap sh and your
comments are giving me a slightly different version of the story one that
I think I've also figured out you want to see the cheap stuff that's also the
good stuff so we went looking for the
least expensive keyboard on the market
but one that is still fully mechanic mechanical and without
any of that mechanical feel marketing
Malarkey either so here we go then a
Roundup of the nine cheapest true
mechanical keyboards on Amazon
enjoy the be quiet! dark Bass Pro 900s
modular design supports a variety of different layouts and configurations
click on the link in the video description to learn more first up is our audience's favorite
brand apparently red dragon products
have been flying off the shelves like
fire since our last peripheral Roundup
available here this is the red dragon
k551 Vara the product page says it is
built like a tank and actually we're
inclined to agree it's Splash prooof and
the exposed steel back plate is sturdy
not to mention heavy AF it's got double
shot injection key caps with a gamery
but very readable Legend over top of what they describe as Cherry green
equivalent switches but they both look and feel a lot more like blues if you
ask me with that in mind then the typing experience is pretty good but the key
caps are a little on the slippery side and keystrokes produce a metallic twang
that like country music you'll either love or
hate the backlight has a generous 10 steps of brightness including off but
unfortunately only one effect breathing
though an RGB version is available and
there's an unlit one as well in case you want to save
$2 owas Demon King is a 10 keyless with
according to the Box its own branded owa
mechanical Blue switches but it turns out that they're actually just Gaton
blues and the diagram on their website is a ripoff of Razor's marketing
materials for their razor green switches produced by Kale anywh who the keyboard
itself is nice and heavy but with more deck Flex than other keyboards in our
Roundup and typing is overall okay due
in large part to the laser engraved key caps whose WID and raised Corners are
debatably fine but whose keycap wobble
is not the Dual Purpose keys have the symbols beside each other rather than
stacked so the backlit version that we're assuming exists can illuminate
both but on ours it's just kind of hard to read or funny my favorite keys are
the 5% key and the
one on that subject there's also an indicator light for numlock even though
there's no number pad it's a decent board overall if you don't
mind the annoyingly narrow Enter key since it uses the European ISO layout
rather than the North American NY the next keyboard on our list isn't a
mechanical keyboard at all it's the airox k500 Irina capova named after a
Russian actress for some reason we're actually including this one just to
highlight how easy it is for people with little experience with mechanical
keyboards to order the wrong thing this
one is in Amazon's mechanical keyboard
category even though it uses scissor key
switches for what it's worth though she feels a little cheap but she types
pretty nice if you're into low profile switches if Apple made a mechanical
keyboard aimed at Gamers with a rainbow
LED scheme at okay it's not very Appley at all but the 10 keyless z77 from e-
element is actually pretty sweet anyway it's otmu Blue switches are a little
louder than Cherry MX Blues but otherwise they offer a very similar
tactile experience and they also have
some extra brackets around the cross that are supposed to increase stability
but it should be added you won't be able to add your own sound dampening O-rings
the build quality feels solid and even though the backlight colors can't be
changed on this version it comes preloaded with nine effects that are
easy to control with without the use of software finally I'm not sure if this is
a good sign or not but they included a few extra key switches in the Box should
the board's original PCB mounted switches fail so ugly gray cable aside
this one is a great option and if you're
looking for an even more compact version
of the same try the 545 g e element z88
super skolar all all the features and
keys of the z77 but Smarter with a
smaller footprint and bezeless design it
actually has some other improvements too like a detachable cord Cable Management
tracks and multiple backlight color
choices but what if you want bigger and not smaller then there's the uh hey wait
a tick no this one isn't for me element actually it says it's an eagletech
kg011 one and yet it has a similar
finish and the exact same Legend as the
last two boards and that's the same
legend that the red dragon keyboard was using too okay so budget keyboard part
sourcing seems to be a little inbred but regardless this one is also a nice board
with an icy blue backlight that can be set to breathing mode and a Corsair
inspired metal back plate not to mention
that like the others mentioned switchable WD and arrow keys are
included in case you wear out one of the sets and now then for something
completely different this thing is called the kissan or magic Force smart
one depending on where you look it's our
smallest keyboard with just 68 keys and
weighing a mere 528 G the Blasted finish
of the back plate belies its low price tag and it's even available with
switches from Cherry Gaton or otmu for
different feels what they all have in common though is that the function and
number Keys which have been combined and
a removable cord and media on the go adapter are all included to make it a
very portable keyboard you might even consider taking this one to class since
ours uses the quiet otmu black linear
switches these have a similar feel to Cherry MX Reds the ones that are so
common in gaming boards but quite a lot
heavier okay now this 10 key actually is
from e- element though it has a different Legend different key caps and
even different stems the screws on this weird
compartment on the bottom made us think that they might have put weights inside
like a high-end gaming mouse but no all
1,220 G of this puppy seem to be from
the thick steel back plate it's got a
bunch of lighting modes even though the backlight color can't be changed and if
you're into that sort of thing it's probably our loudest keyboard in this
Roundup overall not bad and it's the
only one with an included wrist rest though with that said we couldn't find
anyone whose wrists or even Palms actually touched it the dro grammar or
gramar or caliber whatever it is is a
lone wolf in many respects it's the old only board in our Roundup that uses
Brown switches offering a happy medium between typing and gaming and apparently
it helps you use every Spell correctly
which okay it's also the only one with a
braided cable embedded numpad and the
ability to set up five of your own lighting schemes though the included
effects are a fair bit cooler as for the
cons the otherwise nice backlit double
shot key caps have additional pad printing on the outside that looks
blurry and cheap the casing is creaky and the caps lock key is illuminated
when caps lock is off rather than on for some reason overall though we really
liked its feel features and compact layout now then to hand out the trophies
the magic Force definitely put a spell on me it's sturdy yet light and is
available with a wide variety of
different configs very ious key switches key counts and even backlights if you're
looking for something big heavy and gamery though we ended up recommending
red dragon again and I also personally
thought that the e- element z77 was pretty well rounded with that said
though the big surprise here is that none of these boards stands out as bad
your mileage may vary though because at the low end of the market you don't get
the same quality assurance program that you would from a major brand though at
these prices there's the argument to be made that you could just pick up another
one if it dies Blue Apron lets you create
