  Got the Ducky One 2 SF RGB Mechanical Keyboard Kailh BOX Brown with pbt caps and have no complaints at all

  Moving from a full sized to 65% wasn't that big a switch but going to a mini might be harder.

  Paid $111 + shipping a month ago

  I definitely prefer TKL for work, but I use my SF when I work from home and 65% is almost as good after I set up my macros. I used to use a 60% KB at home and I got used to it, but having arrow keys makes everything easier imo. So I would definitely recommend the SF over the mini

  Didn't realise how often I use certain keys like print screen. This don't have a dedicated key and need to use FN + another key but got used to it pretty quick.

  No dedicated arrow keys are something I can't live with tho

  The Ducky SF is a good alternative to this, and has been around $50 cheaper. SF has the arrow keys and home, end, page up and page down buttons, much like a laptop keyboard. TKL doesn't offer too many additional benefits, unless you use a lot of the function keys.

  The problem with Ducky keyboards is you only ever buy a new one out of want, not need.
  My original Ducky Shine has been going strong for about 10 years! I even spilt a beer on it once and it never skipped a beat. Besides a bit of dust and food crud, it looks and acts as it did the day I purchased it.

  I love the look of some of the new models but I just can't justify it.

  have a +1 for Ducky :D

  Is this model hotswappable? Some people probably won't like the Box Jades.

    It doesn't look like it's hotswappable. normally they would be quick to include that as a selling point if it was.

    Ducky only has one hotswappable board I think, which was their limited edition one (the grafitti one, Year of the Rat I think? I cannot remember for certain).

  I have had 2 Ducky keyboards…

  both have had keys randomly stop working… my other one, was the number 6 key on top row and on the one i currently am using.. the { key

  cant get them to work again.. but i keep using it because I love the actual keyboard.

  I would/hope to definitely buy another one, but lost my job at start of covid and havent got another one yet, so luxury :p~ ill still with my faulty one for now.

  Havent used them in awhile now, but i stopped using PCCG because of their delivery costs. hope it is better these days.

    It's kinda weird because that sounds like either the switch problem (replacing the switch could help) or a PCB problem (which I have no clue on how to fix).
    Switch problems I think are relatively rare.

    I am saying it's kinda weird since I've seen people talk so highly of the Ducky brand. Every time I see a deal on Ducky, I see people talking about keys not registering.
