She’s growing up, and she’s got a framework 13 laptop with fedora 40, which is great, but she’s been using hand me down peripherals.

She’d love a decent mechanical KB as she likes the clicky clicky of the keys, but the last one I got her, a Lofree, basically bit the dust in no time.

She’s SUPER into the aesthetics but doesn’t want RGB led’s, but DOES like a nice backlit keyboard.

When searching for it, amazon, best buy and the rest just pollute the results, so it’s actually difficult to decide what to get her. Her birthday is coming up so this will be her main gift.

What have you all had good luck with that might be aesthetically pleasing, that the quality wasn’t trash like Lofree.

EDIT: thank you for all your suggestions, I’ve sent her a bunch of links to look at and she’s going through them now. I’ll try to remember to post back what she picks.

    The 8bitduo NES/Famicom keyboard is pretty nice if you’re into that sort of thing, it doesn’t come with backlights or a mouse though

      I didn’t realize they did keyboards, I’ve got 4 of their controllers and they are great.

        They have one and I think it’s incredible, but if your kid isn’t into retro gaming it might not be the best stylistic choice.
