This ain't a deal, it's literally cheaper on Banggood right now.

I got mine for $102 last year.

Anyone tried Royal Kludge keyboards?

I don't really care about the mechanical thingie, I only want full size keys that aren't 1mm thick...

Arrow keys are a must for me so I bought this: https://m.banggood.com/RK-G-87-87keys-W ... 52277.html

I really wanted arrow keys, and there aren't a ton of options for tenkeyless bluetooth keyboards.

Would love to hear your feedback on the keyboard once you get it. I was eyeing the amazon non-bluetooth version of the wireless RK keyboard.

Lol I hope you have your flame suit on buddy. Your comment reveals nothing except your ignorance on the mechanical keyboard world.

Gateron and Kaihl once known as cherry clones manufacturers have surpassed Cherry on terms of quality and offerings.

Just a note that this isn't really a sale, it's this price all the time on Banggood.

60% boards are actually more efficient to use than full size boards. Everything is on the main part of the keyboard, just hidden under FN command layers. Most 60% boards have a DIP switch on the bottom of the keyboard that makes Capslock the FN key to make it easier to use. The only thing you miss is the numpad, and I can't even remember the last time I used the numpad outside work.

Gateron's are smoother with less "scratching" than Cherry keys, but they wobble more.

There is a catch though. Yes, it's cheap for a 60% board, but the Anne Pro 2 does have problems. Quality Control seems to be an issue. Just go to r/AnnePro and scroll down and you can see the issues. Basically, it's cheap, but you're getting what you paid for.

I apologize I meant to list this as the Anne Pro 2. The updates are an improvement. I have to say when I purchased it around December 2018 the RGB configs were horrible. The RGB were somewhat flickering as it moves across your keyboard, there weren't that many settings besides changing colors and breath mode. They added a moving rainbow pattern and a ripple pattern when you press the keys. Also the RGBS wouldnt turn off when you shut down your computer. They fixed most if not all the problems. I'm actually impressed a chinese company when the extra mile to improve the software.

you can call me semi-newbee, as I only owned four mechs, and i only played around 10 mechs (owned by my friends). Yes, Anne pro is a no-name. After quick search, Anne pro, a product line from Obin, is a kicker-start product from JD.com (chinese version of amazon). So, yes a no-name brand.

thank you very much for your ignorance judgement. I have owned cherry black and blue (not 2019 though), razor green, vapoo brown, kaihl brown switches. the two chinese switches are way more inferoir based on my experience. From the reviews I have read, gateron switch has some problems as well (the switches are flimsy and shaky after use).

exactly. shows RMB349 in the chinese website, which is equivalent to CAD$70. So you are paying extra 90% to 100% of its original price to newegg to ship it to your place. And some other Kaihl swtich 104 key keyboard can be had for $60.

The Anne Pro 2 actually has a tap layer where you can tap on the bottom right keys and they function as the arrow keys,

I think it's the
SHIFT (up)+
FN (left) + FN2(down) + CTRL(right)

Works wonderful for me as I like using arrow keys as well

I love my original Anne pro. And anyone who thinks it's a no name company probably doesn't know anything about keyboards. It literally has its own subreddit at r/annepro

Well if you didn't sound so arrogant in your initial post and actually elaborated more you wouldn't have sounded so ignorant. Offer something more constructive next time, it'll make this forum a much more pleasant and resourceful place.

You can program this on any 60% that allows macros/programmable keys.

For example, for my Ducky One 2 Mini, I just set the dip switch so that the bottom right keys are Right Shift/CTRL/Win/Alt and I used the onboard macro system and set it so they're arrow keys (without the need for using the FN command). I also set it so FN R-Shift/Win is Page Up/Down.

Works very well.

Warning!

Newegg is notorious for bad customer service! Read their reviews on google.

If anything goes wrong, be prepared to go through a nightmare. They are slow to respond to email, and often won't help track lost items. The prices are good, but buyer beware, many customers have lost out by dealing with them.
