    Apex pro TKL

    It’s very lightweight, the keys are very comfortable, and the sound they make when you press them is really good. Every time I clean it, it’s very quick and easy to remove the keys. With the lights off, the lighting is very soft—perfect because it doesn’t glare or bother you. It doesn’t take up much space, and it’s very satisfying to work with. The wrist rest is very good; I don’t use it often, but when I do, you can really feel the difference. I could say it’s the best mechanical keyboard out there. I’ve bought four because it makes an excellent birthday gift, and people always tell me it’s a very good keyboard. It’s not hard to use, everything feels very comfortable, simply the best mechanical keyboard on the market.

    Steelseries apex pro tkl

    The design of SteelSeries keyboards is the best on the market. It has the simplicity of a compact keyboard, but the TKL version is just the right size for those of us who don't just use the keyboard for gaming. The response is fast, highly recommended for competitive games like Valorant and CSGO. The RGB is also something that doesn't disappoint. It has it all; the best keyboard, now with magnetic activation.

    Best keyboard OAT

    Got this for my birthday. The price is high but you will 1000% think it's worth it after. 10/10 it's very responsive. I highly recommend for games like fortnite and valorant, although it's not a very good option for people that really like RGB. The lighting is amazing and very bright in the dark than my last keyboard. This keyboard has dead rgb which isnt a huge deal breaker for me. There's no way to get a yellow color because it shows up as green on the actual keyboard, and white is more of a cyan color but I found that putting it to a very light red or a very light purple works well. This isn't a problem with buying from best buy though as it is a steelseries problem with many of they're keyboards. As seen in the pictures the one taken when it was day seems blue while the one taken at night is a white color. Another thing to mention is the software. It automatically enables steelseries moments which is a pain to disable, it made my playing experience very laggy and my fps dropped ALOT. After you disable it there should be no problem at all though.
