It's time to talk about mechanical keyboards. They are characterized by a clearer impact than membrane due to the excellent principle of operation. The basis of the mechanically openable contacts, because of which the tactile connection is felt more clearly. The keys of such models have no backlash and work until the end of their turn. This not only has a positive effect on the gameplay, but also helps when working in copywriting.

F keys can be used as multimedia, the benefit at the program level, developers have laid this opportunity. The weight is almost 1200 grams, which is a bit too much for a model with no digital layout.

The second revision has fallen dramatically in quality, almost 50% of buyers in their reviews complain of backlash and incorrect model operation. It is better to look for a version of the first revision, but as the first mechanic it is good. If we talk about the backlight, then it is not here. She and the people who like to work and play in silence will not like it, the sound of pressing is very loud. All indicators are on the left panel.

9 GAMDIAS HERMES 7 COLOR Black USB

Unlike all its predecessors, Hermes 7 has its own switches, which are essentially analogous to MX Blue. Impressive manufacturer claimed pressings - up to 50 million for each button. Customer reviews are mostly positive, and there are no negative reviews towards working capacity. The layout does not stand out for something special and is standard. Immediately make a reservation - the keyboard is noisy, so it is better to get good headphones.

If we talk about compactness, then, alas, it is not here. But there is a comfortable stand for hands and digital layout. The brightness around the periphery of the keyboard buttons is identical, a solid braided wire will serve you for a long time. There are 7 colors to choose from and several backlight modes. We must pay tribute to the manufacturer - he did not become wise and released a high-quality budget product for games and work, without departing from the canons.

8 Qcyber Dominator TKL Black USB

This futuristic-looking keyboard is worth the money. It has branded switches that are not inferior to the MX. By pressing the device does not seem cheap and leaves a pleasant impression with prolonged use. Minor flaws are the large Enter and Spacebar keys, and the backlash is felt on them. However, this is a disease of many models.

The keyboard comes backlit and it's great. High-quality LEDs have their own color, which gives a rich color and pleases the eye. The design in the style of Skeleton is made without a digital panel. F-block is shifted to the right. The model does not bend even with considerable effort, the body is made of aluminum and thick plastic. It is equipped with red switches, which are considered one of the quietest in their segment. The names of the keys are not painted and are located immediately in keycap. This makes them more durable; after a couple of years of use, you won’t even think that something has been erased.

7 Razer BlackWidow X Tournament Black USB

In general, high-quality gaming device at a good price.

6 Logitech G G413 Black USB

Finally, a Logitech model appeared in our top. If in the budget segment, the company is all bad, then from 5,000 rubles good, but controversial models begin. For example, the G413 has a simple but stylish appearance in the style of Skeleton and has backlit keys, there is almost no space in the space below them, which makes cleaning easier - you can just walk around with compressed air and dust is gone. Of the additional options there is an extension cable to which you can connect a card reader. Keycaps are very thin, so be careful when installing. The main materials are aluminum (base plate) and a good plastic that does not bend or wear out for a long time.

As for switches, everything is ambiguous.There is a specific feedback expressed in the low threshold and extremely small key travel. Partly position saves damping mustache, smoothing blow at the end of the turn. The keyboard comes backlit, but it is not RGB.

Finally, the company Corsair has released a product, the quality of the corresponding price tag.

2 BenQ Zowie CELERITAS II Black USB

Beautiful, high-quality and at the same time simple keyboard, but even this is not its main advantage. The main chip is optical switches that read the power of your depression. Impacts to the buttons are impossible - the smoothness of operation is simply phenomenal. The model itself is full-size and without additional buttons, made in a classic style.

The materials are very pleasant to the touch, but the surface gets dirty easily and collects all the dust and dirt that can be found. She does not ride the table, but her legs are missing. RGB backlight is not. It is difficult to call it budget, but for such a price you are offered the most modern technologies and long-term use.
