Best for

What will you mostly use it for?

The VA80 Hygge is the more flexible choice for office use, programming and travel, with silent switches, wireless modes and QMK/VIA support. The VPG108 has the edge for Hall Effect gaming features and dedicated multimedia controls. Modding favors the VA80 Hygge for its firmware support and broader switch flexibility. Both are full-size boards, but the VPG108 is wired-only and ANSI-only.
