Look at your keyboard. Do the keycaps excite you? That’s what we thought. You pound on that thing day in and day out. Shouldn’t it at least be attractive? Or even happiness-inducing?

But it lacks hot-swap and wireless, its keycaps feel cheaper and will wear out sooner, and its backlight is red only. The Q3 Max has a heavy-duty aluminum case and feels great to type on.

The X5 keyboard from Lemokey has shine-through ABS keycaps. The LED backlights are a vibrant red color and there is also a range of different lighting modes to choose from, depending on your mood.
