r/keyboards on Reddit: Recommendations for 100% ISO layout keyboards?
June 10, 2025 -

Hello everyone!

The cheaper keyboard that I got when I first built my PC is finally giving out and I'm looking for a new keyboard now.

I'd love to stay under around $200 USD and I would need the seller to ship to Mexico since that's where I'm located.

My requirements are:

-ISO layout since I intend to use the Latin American key layout.

-100%/Full size keyboard since I do use the numpad and a lot of the other keys that are cut by smaller keyboard layouts.

-Backlit (Doesn't have to be RGB but I do need to be able to see my keyboard clearly in the dark)

-I'd love dedicated media keys on the keyboard, but I'm completely fine with using the FN + F## combos as long as I have a way to control my volume and music from the keyboard (Pause, play, previous and next songs, etc).

-I am fine with both wired and wireless keyboards.

I would like the keyboard to be mechanical but Ireally don't know much about keyboard brands, switches, etc. besides what I've randomly come across on the internet, and was hoping y'all could help me here. I do a lot of writing, both normal and programming, a bunch of math related stuff including CAD software and excel, and also play videogames on my spare time, so I'm not sure what I would need in those regards.

I'm also fine with putting the keyboard together myself if it would help me save some money, I even think it might be fun, not gonna lie, but budget is my main concern here.

If you have any recommendations for keyboards that fit my needs (if not all, most of them at least), or you think there's anything I should know about keyboards before continuing my search or in general, please do let me know.

Thanks for your help in advance!

How to Choose the RIGHT Keyboard Size (60%, 65%, TKL, 100%)
June 21, 2021 - The next size down is a 65% keyboard, which is the same layout as the 75%, but without the dedicated functions row which makes the keyboard even smaller depth wise. This means the functions row is now built into the numbers row as secondary controls usually activated with the FN key.

This keyboard design is an absolute eye-catcher! The layout is thoughtfully designed with a modern and futuristic look, especially the top case's ice cold smooth anodized finish with one of the functional and playful screen I have seen on a keyboard. To add icing to the cake, there is a dot matrix which lightly up and customizable as well.
