    this time im going small, but cant make up my mind between these 2

    kbt pure pro

    leopold fc660m

    both comes with PBT keycaps, both are non standard which changing keycaps a headache but not a issue for me, both have good built quality and both priced very similarly at taobao

    so hard to choose but can only afford one :mrgreen:

    White is the trend these days, but for practical reasons, I would go with the black.

    How much are they? 2.4 GHz or Bluetooth?

    white kinda sexy though but yea its hard to maintain

    the pure pro in china 549yuan and leopold 587yuan..close pricing and i like both

    they are wired not wireless but both comes with removable cable, another good must have feature at least to me

    Oh, so they have like a mini-USB port on the keyboard with a USB to USB cable?

    Hard to tell from the pics but it seems that the white one has better placement of pg up/down and home/end buttons, so better for typing.

    I always prefer numpad. that's the good thing about these keyboards, choices!

    yeap, the port i dont know type A or something then the usual USB at the other end

    the kbt pure pro have a even out of standard layout with small backspace and spacebar but the layout looks more clean and compact

    keyboard like this is out of the usual design, but its really about choice and preference which i really like

    im leaning more now towards the leopold, from review better build quality

    end up i bought this, but the seller make a mistake sending me this 84 model rather than 87..but using it for few days loving it..not a mistake i would rant the whole world to know lol

    at 1st kinda weird with the compactness of it but after few days its fine :thumb:

    84 is a mini model, 87 is the normal tkl

    the space saving is great now i can bring my mouse closer, build quality is good nothing to shout about and for the price around RM230 its phenomenal value

    the numbers usually represent the amount of keys.
