Best Low

You now have some options when it comes to the best low-profile mechanical keyboards on the market you could look at, but how do you go about choosing what is the best for you?

The easiest way to figure out this question is to understand what your use case is for your low-profile keyboard. If you want a good typing experience since you will be typing a lot of documents, then this is definitely not the choice for you.

Although impressive low-profile keyboards simply lack the space to include proper mechanical switches that would be good for your typing experience.

Are you perhaps interested in the lower actuation points and faster inputs for gaming? Well, once again this really isn’t a big deal when it comes to gaming since most pro players and enthusiasts use standard keyboards with switch options that just feel good for them.

So why would you choose a low-profile keyboard? The main two reasons are the aesthetics and the ergonomics behind a low-profile board. Besides these 2 points, there are no real reasons to go low-profile.

The ergonomics still are a somewhat debatable point still, but there is no doubt that the closer the keyboard is to the table surface, the lower the arch of your wrists will be when typing, therefore, being more comfortable.

This can be achieved with a wrist rest on normal keyboards but the aesthetics are not the same.

In conclusion, if you are interested in low-profile keyboards you should just choose the ones that look the best and fit your build the most. This is the only logical conclusion since everything else is done better by a standard keyboard, but nobody can replicate the sleek design of low-profile boards!
