Title: Cheapest 60% keyboard(s)?
Post by: uzoc2005 on Tue, 05 September 2017, 23:48:25

I've seen the 60% Royal Kludges (cheapest?) on MechanicalKeyboards.com but they only come with blue switches? I'm looking for Cherry brown or clear, any suggestions?

Anne Pro starts at $50-something on Taobao, and I believe it's commonly recommended.

Forget about OG Cherry MX and especially MX Clears at this price point and from these de facto no-name brands. The closest you can get to Cherry is KBP/Vortex (V60 or old Poker X respectively).

OK, thanks.
