I need recommendations for a new keyboard for osu mania, the keyboard that I usually use does not work correctly at advanced levels (5 or 6 stars) which delays me a lot when I try to improve
I am from Spain so if it could be that the shipment is to any part of the world, I would appreciate it very much, it would really do me good
Thanks: D

Do you have any switches that you prefer over others? And what's your budget?

Thing about keyboards is that if the minor differences between switches and build quality actually affect your gameplay then you probably know how to find one. Generally osu people recommend cherry reds or browns, I've heard great things about gateron brown. Another factor is the size, 84 key or full sized. I use the numpad as keybinds so thats a factor as well.

I would say for most people aside from switches and keyboard size it's mostly how much you want to pay for aesthetics and build quality.

this is a popular one for budget, though it has recieved critisism for being "rng" and breaking within a few weeks. that said, it has a good polling rate, a large selection of switches, and no chord splitting. if you get a bad one, return it and get a new one.

if you want a cheap-ish keyboard with a lower chance of breaking, here's a good one:

it has all of the good qualities of the last one, but it hasnt been criticized for breaking within a few weeks.

I don't know if your area has it available, but try searching up techware phanton 104. It's was like $50 with 1000hz polling rate, hotswappable switches, and rgb. Btw if you are thinking about getting outemu browns, they require a force of 50g to bottom out. That's pretty damn heavy in my opinion. Try getting the reds. It's 45g to bottom out. Or buy your own switches.

There's also GK61, which is now $60 (used to be $50 rip). It has everything above, but you can select gateron opticals. There's also the DK61, which is also like the GK61.

O shit nvm GK61 AND DK61 don't have numpads

Or just get a chiclet or scissor switch keyboard
