As someone who types for a living and reviews at least two keyboards every week, I know what makes a good keyboard. It should offer a comfortable typing (or gaming) experience, the switches should be responsive, the keycaps should be durable — these are just a few things to consider to determine whether it’s one of the best keyboards. So how about the Cherry MX LP 2.1? It’s definitely up there.
This low-profile keyboard comes with super speedy responsive switches, and it offers a delightful typing experience. With a 1,000Hz polling rate, it’s well-suited for casual gaming too, and its small form factor means you can easily travel with it. It comes in two colorways — dark and bright — so there’s something for both sides of the Force. But this is an expensive keyboard, and its subpar battery life doesn’t help its case.
