Buying a custom mechanical keyboard is a great way to improve the performance of your computer. You can get one with multiple functions, or a combination of features. The best custom keyboards are well-made and designed to fit your needs. Some examples of such keyboards are the MelGeek Mojo68, Drop’s Sense75, and the MelGeek Q3.
MelGeek Mojo68
The MelGeek Mojo68 custom mechanical keyboard is a mechanical keyboard that can be custom-programmed to your specifications. It features a wide range of configuration options including six wild styles, three profiles, and five switch types. Its transparent chassis design and unique internal gasket-mount custom mechanical keyboard design makes it ideal for personalizing. With the Mojo68, you can usher in a new era in mechanical keyboards.
Drop’s Sense75
If you’re looking for a mechanical keyboard that has just the essentials, you’ve come to the right place. The SENSE75 Barebones keyboard comes equipped with components that enthusiasts love and the build quality that enthusiasts demand. The barebones design keeps things simple and offers a low price, making it an affordable option for any budget.
Drop’s QMK
The QMK custom mechanical keyboard from Drop is one of the most customizable mechanical keyboards on the market. It is designed to be easy to use and configure. It also has two USB-C connectors on the top for attaching peripherals. However, its design means that it is not ideal for long-term use.
MelGeek Q3
The MelGeek Q3 custom mechanical keyboard offers a classic tenkeyless layout and hot-swappable aluminum keycaps. It supports QMK/VIA keyboard standards and has 24 manufacturing stages, including a double-gasket design. The fully assembled Q3 comes with prelubricated Gateron G Pro switches.
Keychron Q3
If you are looking for a custom mechanical keyboard, look no further than the Keychron Q3. Its solid aluminum chassis and steel plate make it a sturdy keyboard with little flex. The double-shot PBT keycaps offer a pleasant wobble and the keyboard’s four rubber feet help to minimize noise. Its build quality is exceptional, making it ideal for long typing sessions.
Drop’s VIA
Drop’s VIA mechanical keyboard is a solid option for the gaming enthusiast. Its 60 percent board and fully acrylic case make it a standout. The keyboard’s two USB-C ports make it a great choice for charging devices. Its lack of stabilizers and programmable keys are two of the few negatives, but it does deliver a good typing experience and looks good. Currently, the Drop VIA keyboard is only available for pre-order. The keyboard will not be shipped until November.
