Question

What should I look for in a new economical keyboard?

Mar 7, 2018 1:45AM PST

Mine has many broken keys (due to water damage). I am wondering what is the best keyboard I can get for as cheap as possible 20$ - 40$ that has a good typing feel (RGB is nice but not required) and I'd prefer it be closer to 20$.

I'd look for keys in a keyboard.

A Logitech K120 is a common basic keyboard. I see it sold for euro 12,99 to euro 20,57 in webshops here (+ costs most often). However, to feel the typing feel, you'll need to visit a brick-and-mortar shop. You can't do that via the web.
