Trying here first before it goes on TM.

 

Had this for less than a year and have downsized to a 60% KB.

 

$160 pickup in Akl CBD.

I’m in the market for 60% too which one did you end up with? I’m trying to source a Ducky one 2 mini but locally is proving difficult.

I got really excited when looking at the specs of this, I've been trying to find a suitable replacement keyboard for ages, and had no joy then I saw the "Arx Dock" on this.. Then I went and read everyone on Reddit saying don't even bother it's garbage.

 

*sigh*

 

I really wish Logitech had either kept building keyboards with displays in them or taken this Arx thing seriously. Ahh well back to my eternal quest to find a new keyboard with a display, programmable keys, back-lighting, and ideally mechanical. 

 

*edit* 

 

Also can anyone explain the love for those 60% keyboards? I positively loathed the experience the few times I used one.

Was interested until I saw the issue with the backlighting, did you not try and do a warranty claim on it from pbtech?

For me it was more of a need due to living in a CBD apartment which we all know is limited in space which resulted in me having to get a smaller desk.
