They work just fine, specially Logitech's with their great wireless tech. I don't see the point tho, since you don't usually move the keyboard while using it. If you need to move it around frequently to a different setup that's a different matter of course. Answer from zarco92 on reddit.com

r/ErgoMechKeyboards on Reddit: wired vs wireless
January 15, 2024 -

So, I'm still new to this cool community and to ergonomic keyboards. One thing, which keep surprising me is how often I see wired keyboards. Or better to say I see almost only wired keyboards.

This is surprising for me, because I've been using only wireless keyboards from Logitech since 2016 and I've never experienced a single problem.

What is the reason for that?

  • are there problems with nano!nano v2?

    • when I understand it correctly, it is only ZMK compatible, is this a reason?

  • what are the possibilities for wireless? I though nano!nano v2 is pretty much the best option, but for example the FalbaTech builds use something else with WLAN, but I saw posts in mechMarket saying there problems with ghost strokes (something which never ever happened to me with any Logitech keyboard I have had and something I wouldn't accept)

Do you prefer wired or wireless keyboards?

I currently own a Black Widow V3 Razer keyboard that is wired. The 'W' key has started to become unresponsive and unpredictable, and after trying tons of troubleshooting steps I've made peace with the fact that the board is toast.

I'm now in the market for another keyboard, and was eyeing up the Logitech G195 Wireless keyboard as a replacement as I have a G Pro Superlight Wireless mouse and I love it.

What are people's thoughts on wireless boards though? Are they just as good as wired these days or should I avoid wireless and stick to wired?

Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone,

i need your help finding a Keyboard that is good for Gaming and Home Office.

I want to have an wireless Setup at home and a Full Size Keyboard for the Office work.

I have read SO much today about different types of Keyboards that im close to a headache.

Fort further information:

-Everything under 300€/$ is okay
-Full Size Keyboard
-Good Battery life
-Mechanical Keyboard

  • If possible, also quiet

Some Keyboards i have saved in my mind are the Logitech MX Mechanical (Which seems to have a bad latency) and the Keychron Q6 Max (which has not a good Battery Life?).

Thank you in Advance and sorry for my English!

Hello!

I'm planning to get a mechanical keyboard to add to my setup. The thing is, my usage of it will be both for work and entertainment (some games like Path of Exile. but more importantly, FPS where low latency is needed)

I've been looking at this keyboard which seems to be a nice quality / price deal, but I'm wondering if there is anything that could be suitable for the usage I want?

Key needs:

  • Fast wireless, but with capability to plugin for FPS gaming

  • Ability to use the same keyboard across two laptops simultaneously.

  • Prefer Low-profile, Linear, Mechanical setup.

I was looking at the Keychron K3 Max but I just saw a YouTube review where the guy had two major issues, being his typing speed was drastically lower (maybe a personal thing), and also the time to wakeup from sleep was annoying long (4 seconds).

If anyone here has a review to give of something that could be useful for me, I'll gladly accept!

Thanks

Hi looking for a gaming 75% wireless keyboard. That’s in a cleaner aesthetic.

I had heard the rainy75 or keychron v1/q1/he could be a good starting recommendations.

For the rainy75 is the standard or pro recommended? And they don’t seem to specify the polling rate but I had read on a comment that it was 500 hz. Is the rain75 good for gaming or is there better choices? I’m just looking for good performance it doesn’t need to be the best.

I have a wire keyboard and mouse that work good, but would really like to go wireless, but I don't want to do that if there's going to be a weird lag response. Also, does it make difference between using USB vs Bluetooth? I've seen a few Bluetooth keyboard/mouse and wondered if they functioned better than USB wireless keyboard/mouse. I mainly just want to know what I need to look for when shopping for one so that way I can choose if I want to get something that has all the bells and whistles (RGB, loud keys, etc) or go on a budget and just get what I need for performance.

Hi all, I'm looking at getting rid of my Corsair k70 for something like a Keychron Q5 HE or something along those lines. Hall Effect seems pretty cool, but I'm also open to ideas. Is that keyboard a good one at the price? It seems like everyone loves it. I'm more looking for a wireless that uses 2.4ghz for better latency, not a really needing gaming features. I'll take suggestions or validation in my current choice. Thanks!

December 2, 2024 -

Hello!

I am wanting to upgrade from my 10+ year old Logitech office wireless keyboard and mouse that cost less than £15. Watching tech reviewers, I am not an 'aficionado' when it comes to keyboards - by which I mean I see reviewers talk about buying keyboards in the hundreds because of the types of switches or its customability and other bells and whistles I don't care about. I'd ideally like to buy both within a budget of £50 - £150 unless I get enough response that this is unreasonable. Below is really all I care about or the keyboard:

  • Low latency for gaming (but I don't play professionally or competitively so it doesn't need to be high end)

  • Bluetooth wireless (I don't want to use a USB dongle or wired - I understand it would be higher latency than a dongle but I'm hoping only to the extent it would matter if I was playing competitively)

  • Numeric (I like having the numberpad and I use it constantly)

  • Mechanical and RGB would be nice but not a need

For mouse, pretty much just that it's low-latency for gaming and is also Bluetooth.

My main motivation to making this is that I know if I just search gaming Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, my main navigation is not wanting to go too cheap that I end up buying something that is just generic tat that will not last, but not wanting to overspend for those 'shiny keyboard features' I don't actually care for. I guess essentially reputable but budget keyboards.

Thanks!

Been using a 65/70% Logitech G Pro wired keyboard for some time but now looking to replace it with a wireless keyboard and not sure what to pick. I mainly use it for gaming and the current one i have has red linear switches which i have enjoyed and never complained about. I do however love looking up vids of ones with lubed switches and enjoy the sound of them a lot. But when looking up keyboards now a days there are magnetic switches now a days that i have no knowledge on.

It doesnt need to be wireless but im in school and often push my keyboard out of the way and a wireless one would just make life easier sometimes but at the end of the day i care about being able to stay competitive in games and perform to the best of my ability.

So

  1. What is the best switch type for gaming?

  2. From what i understand wireless can be just as competitive as wired with virtually no latency as long as it connects via 2.4ghz and not bluetooth. (is this correct?)

  3. Are there any good keyboards from the answer of Question 1 that come with lubed switches? Ones that are lubed and also wireless? (depending on answer to Q2)

Top answer
1 of 2
2
anything with rapid trigger (depending on the games you play. in some games it doesnt matter) correct idk how common factory lube is in hall effect switches. Gateron Magnetic Jades come prelubed. I have the Slice75 which comes with Jades; it's wired but I like it!

1. One you press down to activate. Really, there is no "best switch type", but rather just what you prefer. It could be argued that hall effect, optical, and TMR switches are "the best" because they can be configured to have extremely short activation depths, but I'd argue scissor switches are thus also among the best since they've always had extremely short activation depths. That said, some of the software side things that are being done on analog switches, like hall effect, TMR, and some optical switches, could be considered to have some real advantages. Enough to the point that some competitive shooters consider some of the features cheating and will ban people if its detected. An example of a non-banned feature enabled via software on analog keyboards is extremely short activation points. Since you were using clicky switches, those don't activate until they're pressed down far enough to click, at which point the internal plunger pops down and activates the actual switch under the key cap. Analog keyboards are generally linear switches, meaning they have no click or tactile bump at all and the activation point is at whatever depth they've been programmed to use. For some keyboards you can set that to be 0.1mm. Most mechanical keyboards are closer to 1.2~2mm of travel before they activate. Wooting keyboards also added a "rapid trigger" feature where the key resets not at a specific depth, but at a user specified rise distance. Their official page on it describes it better. https://wooting.io/rapid-trigger A few other analog keyboards have copied this feature as well. The other thing they have, and the that's banned in several games, is you can set two keys to be in a pair, and as soon as one of them is activated, the other is considered released. An example of this would be A and D, as you can flutter between the two keys and only one will ever be active at a time letting you strafe back and forth very fast. Most games if you press both A and D at the same time, you stop and stand still for a moment, and that feature makes it so that never happens and you're always moving, hence why it's often banned. However, some people really hate linear keyboards because there is no feedback at all, and while configurable optical switches may be "objectively better" than any other keyboard switch out there, if you hate using them you're going to play worse than an "objectively worse" switch. I personally highly prefer scissor switch style keyboards. Their activation point is usually much higher than mechanical keyboards, with their total throw often being about as deep as the activation point on mechanical keyboards. They're also extremely thin and flat which I prefer as well. I'm not necessarily saying you should get a scissor switch keyboard, I'm just saying it really a lot more about personal preference than there actually being one particular switch type that's best. 2. 2.4Ghz receivers can get down to around 1.5~2ms in latency. Some wired keyboards get down to below 1.5ms, and a small few get below 1ms. The lowest time for Bluetooth is around 8ms. But most Bluetooth devices will be around 15ms. Note that plenty of wired keyboards can be upwards of 20ms as well, and not all 2.4Ghz receivers are any better than that. Bluetooth will generally be the worst, for any keyboard that supports multiple connection types, and Bluetooth only keyboards are almost universally terrible. And really, anything around 10ms or lower is considered good enough for competitive gaming. Unless you're a professional playing in an in-person tournament, your internet is going to be a far bigger factor than that. 3. Probably a ton. Ask on r/MechanicalKeyboards

I'm after a wireless Mechanical keyboard with backlit keys, prefer 60-75% boards and something like a mx brown switch. At this point, I just want something that is going to work well and be less than $300CAD.

I have two Keychrons already that struggle to get along with Linux.

Thank you for any suggestions!!

I'm moving my wife's PC into the living room since she rarely uses it and I'd like to get a good wireless mouse and keyboard. I'd like to get something that's good but not so good that I'll be sad if my dogs get ahold of it. It doesn't need RGB lights but a backlight would be nice but not necessary.

I'm going to be putting the PC either next to or behind the stand where our TV is located so I'll be anywhere from 8-15 ft away. Any suggestions on good quality ones? No Razer products and full size keyboards are my only caveats.

Hey everyone! I was hope you all could help me with choosing my next keyboard. I am currently rocking a Razer Blackwidow Chroma v3 which has done me good overall but my situation has changed a bit. I am starting to move back and forth a lot recently with going from my University to home and back so im moving my set up a lot. Luckily i already got a mini itx build so the pc is no problem but ive noticed that the bulky and full size keyboard hinders me a bit as i constantly have to unplug and reroute it every time (same goes for the mouse). Ive decided to make my life easier and get a wireless and smaller form factor keyboard so id appreciate the help as im not too well versed in keyboards (ive been with razer since i started building pcs 10 years ago)

My Criterias:

-Wireless but also has wired functionality

-75% or smaller just as long as its not as big as a full size

-good battery life with usb c charging

-under $150, $200 if its really worth it

I do not care much about rgb or programability, as long as it has some sort of backlight. Ill prob just leave it at a single color anyways. I use the yellow switches on my blackwidow v3 and i like them so if there is one with similar switches that is great but im open to suggestions.

I will be mainly using it for school work and gaming so durability and stoke life is important.

I was thinking of getting the Razer Huntsman mini but ik “real” keyboard people disapprove of razer so i thought id ask. Ive also been told that the RK Royal and KeyChron are good but wanted to confirm.

Thank you for your help (and if u have any wireless mouse recommendations, send them over as well)

Hey, I'm looking for a high quality keyboard around the £50 mark. It doesn't need to have flashy rgb or a numpad or anything. My preference is that it has low latency, a long battery life, and is the UK layout (I use that backwards slash button next to shift lol)

I have a gaming laptop but I'm slowly realising that looking down at a screen playing games isn't very good for your neck/posture.

I've been looking around on hotukdeals and I'm finding a couple but they all have RGB etc. and so I'm a bit worried about battery life. Genuinely hate charging things, my gpw lasts months without a charge after turning all the flashy lights off and I'm hoping I can find something similar in the keyboard market.

If you know if any current or future products that seem good then please let me know. I can wait a few months so if something is on the horizon or you forsee a sale then I'd really appreciate it too.

Thank you.
