Try researching ReDragon. They seem to get a lot of praise here for being budget keyboards with good build quality (better than Logitech/Corsair boards that cost 2x as much). There are of course better options in the $80-$120 range, but for $50-$75 range these would be hard to beat. Maybe the recent sales and the Anne pros for $80 or so may be worth looking into.

If you are ok with an 87 and clackity (loud clicky blue equivalents), this might be a good budget option.

If you want the full keyboard, with all the macro buttons and what not more similar to the typical Corsair boards, you could go with this instead

Have not researched this boards in particular, however ReDragon seems to have a good reputation here on reddit.

Like I said, search on reddit for ReDragon keyboards and their build quality, and they actually seem great for their costs! My $33 black mechanical (cherry blue equivalents), red led backlit ReDragon is still going strong, even after a horrific beer spilling incident and subsequent cleaning. The backplate on mine is all metal, with only the top being plastic.

Just make sure whatever future upgrades you plan on are possible with aftermarket key caps and what not. If they fit, the ReDragon are great since they are cheap and reliable, and you can use the money saved on some $90+ Corsair/Logitech on some nice custom key caps. You will probably still have spent less!

Looking at your Post i got a few Suggestions.

Amazon has Refurbuished Corsair K70 MK2 SEs for 80 dollars https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RCY89WM/ Not a Fan of Corsair's Non standard bottom row but the SE has PBT keycaps which is a feature not usually found on Cheaper keyboards. Plus real German Cherry Switches.

Red Dragon is the King of budget keyboards but most of their boards are outemu blue switches and most people arent a fan of the loudness however they do carry a full size keyboard with Brown Switches https://www.amazon.com/Redragon-K550-Mechanical-Recording-Passthrough/dp/B00Y7JTJ8E/

Coolermaster has a few keyboards with decent setups with Gateron switches that are 75 dollars atm https://smile.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Mechanical-Keyboard-Backlighting/dp/B07D9GMYPR

Drevo Is the other budget brand that is popular on Amazon. They are know for their keyboards with unique layouts and features. They have an Outemu switch board option

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FC967M6/?th=1

Other People have already mentioned Tecware Phantom and their Keyboard is a decent option for Outemu Switches.

I think all those 40 dollar RGB keyboards you are seeing is probabaly the same keyboard from China with just different logo slapped onto them. You know the one with the exact same design They should all more or less be the same the only thing I would try to look out for is to make sure they have Outemu switches listed . Outemu is more a less the switch you'll find in most budget keyboards they aren't great but they are decent quality. Gateron, Kailh Box, and Cherry Switches are suppose to be better and more expensive but its debateable. If they don't have Outemu switches listed then they might be using a cheaper chinese switch.

IF you want TKL keyboards I can add a few more options but I think you want a Full Sized RGB keyboard.

Is razer still not recommended here? It's on sale at least.

And contacting them (i believe china company) didn't get any results (ignored).

Mhh, thanks for the tip! Couldn't find that one being sold in Germany. The closest that I could find was this one (Redragon MAYA K550W), but nowhere I can find what switches are in there. Unless the MAYA is the YAMA, and there are actually purples in there. Then I might just give this one a try, even though it's hella ugly :D

Been looking for a while for my first mech and was just curious as to whether anyone has any idea how this would be? [Redragon K550 Yama] (https://www.amazon.com/Redragon-K550-Customizable-Mechanical-Keyboard/dp/B00Y7JTJ8E?th=1)

u/Mylifeis4me · 1 pointr/MechanicalKeyboards

Does anyone know much about this keyboard or company? (Redragon K550-W Yama) http://www.amazon.com/Redragon-Backlit-Customizable-Mechanical-Keyboard/dp/B00Y7JTJ8E/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?ie=UTF8

I like the looks of it, but I've never heard of the company before, and as a first time buyer, I don't want to buy an awful brand/keyboard. (It's Cherry MX Brown)

Also, if anyone knows a keyboard that looks similar to this one, but with blue switches, can you tell me? Thanks.

I was looking for help in finding a white mechanical keyboard (preferably rgb) that has music controls on it. I have been able to find some but I'm not to sure if they are good or not. For example one like this https://www.amazon.com/Redragon-Backlit-Customizable-Mechanical-Keyboard/dp/B00Y7JTJ8E
