New member here, got my first mech keyboard last Friday. Had been playing it over the weekend. Very happy so far.
My story: I have been looking for my first mech keyboards for few months. My ideal mech keyborad is Backlit + 1 to multiple Bluetooth + TKL size + Cherry MX Blue, but there is no such product on the market.
After all the research and comparison, I decide to get either KBT Race 2 or Deck Hassium Pro. As KBT race 2 is not available anywhere in Australia, and the Hassium Pro APAC version has pretty normal font, finally I chose Hassium .
New keyboard in the box.

p.s. thanks to this mini switch tester, which allow me to test the finger feeling on switches before purchase. I was struggling on choosing switches for quite a long time. LOL
