AUKEY KM-G12 RGB mechanical keyboard | $ 39 | Amazon | Promo code GFP66GNY

Hello player. For a short time, you can grab one AUKEY KM-G12 RGB mechanical keyboard for a low $ 39 with the code LML7QYBY. It’s 30% off the original list price of $ 55, so you’ll save a few dollars. One of our former writers, Elizabeth Henges describes the keyboard below::

The KM-G12 keyboard itself also feels like an absolute tank. I feel like it would be years and some bad accidents before I finally give up. It is important to note, however, that Aukeys KM-G12 is also like a tank LOUD. People joke about how loud mechanical keyboards are, but the secret lies in the switches. My regular non-Aukey keyboard uses Cherry MX Brown switches, which are known to be the quietest of the tactile keys. This one here uses Aukey’s proprietary blue switches, compares best to Kirsch’s MX blues, which are both “adored and maligned” for theiraudible click, ”Depending on who you ask.

And yes, it is quite audible indeed. I used the Aukey keyboard for three days during my normal workflow (which included a lot of typing, of course) and I got used to the loud clicks faster than I thought. Discord’s new noise reduction mode also managed to reduce the click when speaking to people on voice chat, which is good too. Provided you don’t annoy a roommate or loved one by typing loudly three feet away from them, that’s not bad.
