list of dual mode keyboards?
« on: Fri, 12 January 2024, 05:53:42 »
Hey guys,
I'm on the lookout for a good fullsize dual mode keyboard, doesn't have to be mechanical.
Is there a list somewhere of keyboards with dual modes only - if not, please do throw in the dual mode keyboards you know, so I hopefully can find the one to purchase.

if you are talking about both wired and wireless then the keychron K10 Pro is one that I know of that does seem pretty decent - https://www.keychron.com/collections/keychron-wireless-keyboards/products/keychron-k10-pro-qmk-via-wireless-mechanical-keyboard

cherry blacks - unlubed - filmed and springswapped with tx 55g mediums - alu Plate | pretty happy with this, the blacks were cherry picked so they weren't that scratchy to begin with, but currently breaking them in, may lube them with a dry lube like ro59 or ptfe powder.

lubed with tribosys 3203 | like topre a lot, prefer it lubed but did make less tactile but that might have been a skill issue. probably will get more tactile over time as the domes age.

bad orange alps lol | definitely needs a restoration. planning on wax boiling them and maybe a replacement pcb because the board has only 2 key rollover apparently.

gateron yellows - lubed with 205g0 - 62g tx mediums - pc plate | probably my favourite keyboard already, feels super nice and sounds pretty good, it's got a great layout as well. probably gonna build this with mx browns, I feel like it would suit the board more.

stock with silent reds | Pretty cool looking board, the silent reds are actually good, they are smooth and I don't mind the mushiness (it's not even that mushy as well). the layout is pretty weird, but is useable. will probably mod this in the future. maybe a pcb and plate swap, change the keycaps to something dolch like, and also spring swap the springs in the silent reds.

stock, needs a cleaning and probably replacement foam. Do plan to change layout so it has split bs and rs, as well as ansi enter.

Built with new nixies on pc half plate. Love this board already, probably the best looking board I own, those brass accents are so mint. Really like it as is, but I do want to try an alu build (probably with nixies as well) just to experiment with that.

after you guys suggested keychron i was browsing their webpage and found https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k17-pro-alice-layout-qmk-via-wireless-custom-mechanical-keyboard?variant=40588287148121
which is also low profile, as well as being wired/wireless!
