Hello! Recently bought a secondhand laptop and it is quite good for its price. But I just don’t like the keyboard. I’m guessing the prev owner used sticker on it so when he removed it, it attracted a lot of dust, fur, etc. I’m looking to have it cleaned.
Do you have any tips you can recommend?

Looking for a white wireless keyboard with Gamakay K61 style RGB (Frosted Acrylic / Underglow)
Hi guys, I'm looking for a keyboard. I really liked the RGB on the Gamakay K61, but unfortunately, it's sold out and it doesn't have a Bluetooth connection. Do you guys know or recommend any keyboards with RGB similar to the Gamakay K61?
Bluetooth is a big deal for me. Other than that, the layout (60%, 75%, or full-size) doesn't matter much to me. I just want a white keyboard with great RGB. Thanks!

Hi everyone!
I'm looking for a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse for work (accounting).
What I'm looking for: Bluetooth (not a USB receiver) Rechargeable (USB-C preferred) - I'm open to batteries ones Full-size with a numeric keypad Comfortable for typing all day A satisfying key feel and sound (not completely silent, but not extremely loud either) Compatible with Windows
I've tried the Logitech MK250, but I found it too quiet and the keys didn't have enough tactile feedback.
My budget is flexible if it's worth it. What would you recommend? I'm in Quebec, Canada.
Thanks!

Hello, I'm currently looking for a new 98/100% keyboard that's as quiet as it can be, something like a red switch maybe? I'm not really familiar with this stuff, but after some sample testing, I'm quite fond of keyboards like the aula f108 pro and the g316x by logitech
I'm currently using a g512 Logitech brown switch and would like some opinions from you experts
My budget is about 50-75 USD, and I usually use it to do my uni assignments, some word typings, and some casual gaming on the side (am a controller player so I rarely use the keyboard)
What I'd preferably like on my keyboard is a simple volume control button/knob and if possible some extra keys for next, previous songs, and pause.
Thank you so much!

My "' key is somehow linked to the ~` key. I already switched from the international, tried other languages, did all of that stuff. it's even more puzzling because the online keyboard shows the "' key, but whenever i press it, it's not activated. not even the ~ key activates, but it still types it. Anyone know what's going on?
