So, as the title suggests, I am currently on the hunt for a new keyboard

My current one has been serving me for about nine years now😲 and I think it is finally time for an upgradeπŸ˜‰

My primary focus is typing; I need something that prioritizes comfort above all else
It doesn't strictly have to be wirelessβ€”though, admittedly, reducing the clutter of cables on my desk would be a lovely change of pace
As for the budget, I am not planning to spend more than $83

I happened to come across this particular model, which caught my eye:

Apple MacBook Pro can be a genius. Stick with them or Logitech. Don't bother with anything else... 😁

And if you're a heavy typer, you definitely need to test the keyboard first. You might hate the key resistance, the size, or just some other detail...

Furthermore, if you spend a significant portion of your day typing, I would strongly suggest you actually test any keyboard before committing. It is much like buying a pair of shoes; you might find the resistance of the keys, the physical dimensions, or the overall ergonomics simply don't align with your personal rhythm.

Alright, thanks.

And of course, I certainly intend to try one out. 😁

I recall once testing a Logitech Wave keyboardβ€”it was such an experience I nearly lost my mind 😁😁. As for the cost, I believe it was roughly around $233. Ultimately, the price tag was simply too steep for me to justify, so I had to walk away from the purchase entirely. 😒

If you can find one, definitely give the Apple MacBook Pro a shot. It’s got that low-profile keyboard feelβ€”similar to what you’d find on a laptopβ€”but personally, I find it absolutely wonderful for typing. I’ve been sticking with them for the last five years now, and honestly, I haven't stumbled upon anything else quite worthy of replacing it πŸ™‚

Man, I have an HP laptop, and I honestly find it incredibly comfortable to write on. 😁
