Quick verdict

Which one should you get?

Get the

Akko MOD007B HE

Hall effect

Build quality in the bottom 25% of 75% boards under $300.

Rules this board out

  • Magnetic switches only. Standard MX switches will not fit.
  • South-facing LEDs. Shine-through legends stay dark, and some sculpted keycaps can clip the LED.
  • No numpad.

Get the

Niz X99

Build quality in the bottom 5% of 96% boards under $200.

Rules this board out

  • Switches are soldered. Swapping them means soldering.
  • Compact full-size layout. The numpad is present, the gaps of a full-size board are not.
