Majestouch 2 TKL (Cherry MX Red) Keyboard

I really wanted something 1) wireless 2) mechanical and 3) compact. I settled for 2/3 and got this keyboard after trying out the Filco Majestouch Air with lackluster results. For those debating between switches, going with the cherry/red is a safe bet. The MX cherry switches are much quieter than the click versions (about the same as a regular keyboard) and the key resistance is comfortable for fast typing. If you have roommates or don't want to drive the people around you insane I highly suggest NOT getting the click keys. Some pros and cons about this keyboard compared to others I've owned:Filco Majestouch MINILA Air 67 Key Click Action Bluetooth Keyboard+Smaller, wireless, dip switches for customizing keys.-Poor reception not as good as USB, learning curve on keyboard layout.Razer Marauder StarCraft II Gaming Keyboard+More sturdy construction, backlit keys, softer key material-Wider chasis takes up more space, center LED is way too bright, tacky brandingUnicomp Classic 101 Black Buckling Spring USB+Unique, classic design, cheap-Much larger, much heavierMicrosoft Wireless keyboard 3000+Wireless, media buttons-Not mechanical, large desk footprintMicrosoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000+More comfortable typing position, media buttons-Not mechanical, large desk footprintDELL USB L-10 Keyboard+Basic, smallest chasis-Not mechanical, full-sized keyboard

I have 4 different Filco keyboards and each one is of excellent quality. Many people complain that the keycaps are poor quality and the letters wear off in short order. I don't know what those people are doing with their keyboards, because I've had other Filco keyboards for more than two years with 6 hours or more of use each day and not a single letter has worn off. I'm *not* using the keyboards for gaming, which might be the difference. For ordinary use for programming and browsing the web, these keyboards appear that they should still be fine in 10 years time.

This is the BEST keyboard I have ever had the pleasure to type on. After owning a dozen different brands of mechanical keyboards, I have never had one that has even come close to the structural quality of Filco. You can feel it in every keystroke. The heaviness of the materials and the weight of the keys, this keyboard will last forever. Owning a Filco is one of those things where you don't really understand what you're missing until you try it. I found it hard to justify paying as much as I did for a peripheral, but now that I own one, I would buy it again in a heartbeat if anything ever happened to the one I have.The Filco wrist rest is a must! Trust me.

As a coder coming from an old aluminum Apple "chiclet" keyboard, this was an amazing step up. I paired mine with 40A-R blue o-rings to soften the landing and shorten the throw a bit and it's perfect. A few of the keys are a little "scratchy" when not pressed on their edge but I've read that's common with red switches. I may try lubing them at some point, which is supposed to help. However it's a minor issue almost not worth mentioning.

Great board! Very solid and basic - which was exactly what I was looking for. Wasn't looking to spend on RGB, and wanted a simple TKL with cherry mx switches. Compared to the IKBC and ducky boards I have, this one has ABS keycaps that are a little louder and thinner in quality. Additionally, this board doesn't have a removable cable. Not deal breakers, but at the price point I would love to see those things. Big fan of cherry red's for gaming since they are so smooth. I did get some basic o-rings to make the noise a bit more manageable.

I find this much better than the old IBM keyboards that so many people still rave about, because the key movement is much softer.I was a little worried about the noise that other reviewers complained about, but it's fine in a home office. Yes, it is noticeably noisy, but I actually enjoy the clickety-clack of the keys. You will definitely want to budget for a good wrist-rest too. I love the Filco wristrest, even though it is quite overpriced.

So despite the 1 star review, I love this keyboard. But...When it arrived and I started using it, I realized the keyboard wobbled. It's been driving me crazy, and I couldn't figure out why. I thought maybe I had something stuck under it, or maybe the stand that flips up was moving too far in one direction...Looking at it horizontally, there's a convex bulge in the middle of the keyboard, so as I type it rocks back and forth. I'm sure this is a quality control issue and that most of them aren't like this, but I can't leave a positive review for a keyboard that rocks back and forth.I didn't figure out the issue until after 30 days from purchasing it, so I'm unable to return it either. Expensive mistake, I'm sure it would have been a great keyboard otherwise.

Built like a tank and easy to press buttons. Took a bit to get used to it not haveing a keypad, but I’m a law student so I’m much more focused on the letters anyway. The clean look and small footprint were exactly what I was looking for.

I wanted a maximum quality keyboard for gaming with no frills, and this delivered. I was worried the keys would be too light (I was used to MX-black) but they are fine. The tenkeyless leaves room for my oversized mouse pad. The key cap lettering is still looking great after well over a year of use.

Sehr gut

手感太赞了

メカニカルタッチでは老舗になるFILCOの製品。キータッチなど安心です。お値段が安くないのでお勧めとはいいませんが入力にこだわっているのであれば買って損はないと思います。競合に Happy Hucking や Realforce などありますが、Happy Hacking はUnixレイアウトで個人で使うPCにはあまり向いていないように感じてしまいます。Realforceは打建感に欠けるのでうるさい音のするメカニカルタッチが好きな私にはピッタリのキーボードとなります。

テンキー抜きでコンパクトな上、十字キーを始めとする標準的なキーが揃っています。押し心地も満足
