So, I finally decided to get myself a new keyboard. After doing some digging, I ended up going for one with MX Brown switches. Let me tell you about my experience with it.
First off, I spent a good chunk of time researching different types of mechanical keyboards. I knew I wanted something with a nice tactile feel without being too clicky, and that’s how I landed on the MX Brown switches. The idea of having a noticeable bump without the loud click sounded perfect for both typing and gaming.

I hit up a bunch of online stores and even went to Costco, to check out their selection. There were a ton of options, from gaming keyboards like the Corsair K70 RGB PRO to more office-oriented ones like the Cherry KC 200 MX. It was a bit overwhelming, to be honest.

After comparing prices and reading reviews, I finally settled on a keyboard that I liked. It promised all the features I was looking for, including the MX Brown switches, a solid build, and a decent price.

When the keyboard finally arrived, I was super excited to try it out. The first thing I noticed was how satisfying it felt to type on.
