I've been keen to buy a mechanical keyboard for a while now, and currently I came across some discounts and I'm ready to finally grab one. What would you recommend from the following ? I'll state what I like about each one, and the price in USD(converted from my currency) at which I can grab them.

Logitech Orion G610 - I like that they have MX Brown, which I think I prefer more. Never had a mechanical keyboard, but that's how I feel in theory(the clicky keys seem more pleasant to me). I can only find it with EU layout which is a minus, but it's not that much of a deal braker. I also like that it has backlit keys, don't really care about RGB, white is perfectly fine for me. Price: 85 USD

Corsair Vengeance K65 - I like the sleek design, I also like that it is TKL (never use the numpad) and the US layout. Don't really like that it isn't available also with MX Brown switches and the fact that it isn't illuminated although this is really the last feature I would be looking into when considering. Same price: 85 USD

Corsair Strafe - I like the design, different color keycaps, it is available with Cherry MX Brown and US layout. Would prefer for it to be TKL but oh well..Don't like that it only has red illumination(would of preferred white for single profile but at least it has). Price : 130 USD

CM Masterkeys Pro M - I like the build quality of CM (so I heard), it has Brown switches, it is smaller than a full keyboard, although I don't really like the right side with the numpad. It has white illumination. Price: 115 USD.

Out of them all I really like the Corsair K65 for design/TKL layout, and the CM Masterkeys Pro M since it usually is pretty recommended and it has mostly all of the features I want (except TKL 🙁)

LE: I noticed the Logitech Orion Spectrum G910 and the G810 are on sale also. However I would prefer Cherry MX rather than RomerG. Opinions? They sell for 115 and 130 respectively.

It really comes down to personal preferences, they are all great keyboards and hold their own.

My personal choice would be the Corsair Strafe, because LED's are a big deal for me. But that may be different for you.

But whichever one you decide to choose, they are all great keyboards. Corsair and logitech are both great brands.
