The "best" mechanical keyboard is the one that fits your personal taste. It's up to you to decide the following:

  • switch type
  • keyboard layout
  • noise level tolerance
  • amount you want to spend

There are lots of different switch types out there. The CODE, for example, offers different cherry MX switches. You should look into what type you think you would like most. Better yet, if you have the chance, go try a few different switch types.

Personally, two of my favourite cherry switches are the MX clears, and browns. However my everyday driver is a Leopold FC660C. Topre is my favourite switch. I do change out different keyboards throughout the year ;)

Hope this helps!
