The best mechanical keyboards you can buy without breaking the bank
Mechanical keyboards don't usually come cheap. Most keyboards from well-known brands, easily surpass the $100 mark — especially wireless models. And mechanical keyboard enthusiasts are willing to pay much more for limited-run, luxury custom kits.
But not everyone can — or wants to — spend hundreds on a keyboard, particularly with the price of so many essentials creeping higher. Luckily there are plenty of budget-friendly mechanical keyboards that will give you a very good typing experience and that oh-so-satisfying click for less than $80. And if you end up buying a less-than-perfect mechanical keyboard, you can always try your hand at some custom keyboard modifications.
Before we get to our best budget mechanical keyboards picks, here are some things to consider while you're shopping around:
Shopping Tips
Choose your form factor: Keyboards come in several sizes, but the first distinction is full-size, which has a dedicated number pad, or tenkeyless (TKL) which doesn't. (There are some smaller keyboards that have number pads but these are exceptions — the majority of keyboards with number pads are full-size.) While number pads can be useful for data entry or just as extra keys that can be customized, many people just can't spare desk space.
