"I use the Redragon K617 Fizz. 60% form factor means some learning curve."
"Redragon k552 running for 4 years, running strong still gave to a friend after I got a new keeb."

Aula
4.2
(5)
"If you can extend your budget a little, you can check out aula f75. One of the best typing experiences you will get"
"These are the creamiest keyboards i know as i am using aula f65"
"I have a brand new open box aula f87 with greywood switches available for 3.5k including shipping cash on delivery extra 100 rs. It's much much better than this cosmic byte shi."
"Aula f87 keyboard, from backseat gaming, switches sound too good, downside is that it does not have knob and is wired, pros: it is hot swappable"
"It's compact though, 61 keys."
