Title: Recommend me a 65% - 80% keyboard
Post by: Ragsters on Sat, 18 April 2020, 12:01:35

Hello,

I'm looking for a white, classic looking keyboard. It does not need keycaps. Something like the Doro 67. Can you guys suggest something that is available or worth waiting for?

Leopold tends to have factory keyboards available in off-white colours such as eggshell or cream whites, if that's what you're looking for.

If you're looking for more of a bright milky white, Varmilo has that.

The JER-A06 / J80 is being run around this time, with at least one 'classic' white option. And some people are selling their slots for E-white on the E8.5 GB.

Thanks for the reply! The "classic" that I was referring to is the bezel/case not the color of white. I really do like both of the boards (E8.5 and Jer-A06) you suggested. Do you have some links? People who are selling slots?

Here's the link to the J80 buy, comes in e-gray or e-milky white:

Hard to get slots. Check the thread, I think it's basically some kind of raffle to get a slot?


You can find a couple people selling their E-white slots on the E8.5 on this page of the thread:

Just PM them, or post there indicating that you would like to buy an E-white slot.
