Keyboard help

[Witski]

After year of using my trusty mars gaming slim keyboard i decided to buy a new one but i can't find anything similar to this that's not super expansive i guess or to my liking.

So i bought an Asus ROG Strix Scope II and used for about a week, great keyboard, really great but...to me the keys are super big and super far a part from each other, i mean, playing wow or any mmo is a chore and hard, can't reach almost any num keys, well, i can't with my current one but it's a lot easier anyway.

The asus in comparison with my current one works way better, but i suppose a deep clean and mainteneace will fix all the problems but i said to my self it's time for a new one.
(with the asus i do a lot of miss-typo or the keys are so sensitive that it's not needed the full pressing for type, a slight touch downwards it's all needed for register, maybe it's a good thing but it's not for me or i have to adapt, i mean casually afking with the hand on keyboard , speels flight right and left or i moove the character away from a tooltip quest for it to disappear, by just having the fingers on wasd).

Sorry for this book i wrote, but tldr, can someone help me with my eternal reasearch of something similar to my keyboard?

It's this my keyboard : https://www.marsgaming.eu/en/keyboards/mk0-gaming-keyboard_mk0

Anything new from mars gaming is a lot like the asus one so...is a no.

Price wise, doesn't matter anymore, if i have the option to choose from Italian layout ( which i don't want or like ) to USA or UK ( the one i used for decades and like) the price raise a lot for no reason..like almost 50 Euro more ( on amazon ) , the asus keyboard was italian..i didn't like it a bit, i don't want to relearn positions or have to use combination of keys to do the things i already do with the USA one, for the accented letters i don't care and don't use or need to since i write only in english if i must i write in italian with my phone or just use ' and be happy.

I kinda like this one but it's without a numpad : ASUS ROG Falchion RX Low Profile

I also looked at the new Logitech G G915 X LIGHTSPEED but someone reviewing the old one explained everything i don't like and it seems true, maybe things are changed with this one so who know, i could try it but i don't really want to make another refund on amazon, i said goodbye to the asus today.

Also the razer ornata 3, but people don't talk to it nicely, ghosting, few keypressing at the same time and letters tend to disappear from keys while being 50 euro more for usa version and 50 for italian so 100+ euro..

Well, sorry again this wall, any tips, i want it slim, confortable, numpad and multimedia keys for music are a must and if it's super compact like the mars gaming i have ( i didn't seen anything compact like this on a full size keyboard, by compact i onlt find half keyboards, 60/65% crap).

Also i don't really like the keys without anything uder like they float, ok it's great for clean but i don't know, maybe i have to adapt to it, didn't bother me too much on the big keys of the rog, but slim ones i feel the keys will wobble.

I've taken a liking to Royal Kludge 96 layouts and the full sized RK920.

While the light color scenes are a bit ugly, they're compatible with Keychron caps, so you can customize to Italian layout in different styles and colors and cherry switches if you want.

Seems a nice keyboard but i want a low profile keyboard and US layout, i tried something like yours with the rog keyboard..while my hands are huge the keys being huge / tall are...weird to me, i feel like i have to type on old mechanical keyboards with the paper that clicks at the end.
I measured the keys distances from my low profile keyboard to the rog i bought, almost the same and feels ten times further, i don't know if i descbribed well what i feel using one.

Edit: i discovered that my keyboard is a 96% keyboard! Now i have more options...all tall keys lol

I just bought the Logitech G G915 X without lightspeed since i don't need wifi/bluetooth connection , only wired, cheaped out 70 euro..i was about to buy the lightspeed for 279 and fortunatelly i saw the wired only version for 210...at the end the review i saw was about this guy that bought the wrong keyboard and dislike everything about it..a clicky one and he wanted tactile ( which is the one i bought, i really liked the snow thing about the rog keyboard and the sound seems similar ).
Thanks for the help, if want to say something else, feel free too, don't be harsh i tend to buy things and regret, i hope this is a good purchase...quality wise from what i saw seems good and durable...i hope.
Funny moment : when i bought the keyboard on amazon it told me that i have to give a password for the courrier to take the box for security on high price stuff...but on my pc components, such as my 7900 xtx it wasn't needed....5x the value of this keyboard.

I really like my G915 but the biggest problem I have with it is the letters on the caps wear out fairly quickly and Logitech doesn't include at the very least replacement W,A,S.D keys for a product that is priced pretty high.

Low profile mechanical switches are a thing, and a bit cheaper for a full set than some others I've seen.

ya, I had that issue when I got a new keyboard the last time.

previously I'd just been going with a cheapo staples keyboard that was like $30 and easily replaceable if I say spilled something on it.

but I guess they stopped selling so many cheap disposable keyboards that just work so now it's either spend like $150 on a good mechanical or get something that doesn't even have a numpad for like $40 and it sucks anyways >.>

ended up going with a semi-cheap logitech budget mechanical and regret it... mushy ol china knockoff brown switches, no wrist rest, and I swear the keys are like 5% smaller than other keyboards so I keep hitting the wrong keys...

which one you bought? A low profile one?

I got used and liked the wrist rest on the other keyboard i refunded, the Logitech i bought doesn't have it but in theory is not needed since is super slim, maybe slimmer than my mars.

The new keyboard seems cool, but i still press unwanted keys ( a lot ) ...the g keys on the left makes me press letters where they aren't ...so confusing, the rog was better in a way...and the keys still feel far apart from each other

How many refunds i can do with amazon?

[Witski]

The new logitech sux ass for me,it's super confusing having macro keys on the left, when i reposition my hands my fingers goes to q caps and s instead wasd, can't write at all without looking, ill try the apex pro or something since nothing from asus have layout usa but everything in Italian, even on their site i can't buy with other layouts.

+1 for Royal Kludge, they're a good keyboard brand on a budget

I also like Keychron's keyboards but their support is notoriously rough
