Machenike or Akko equivalent(s)

My top recommendation would be the FL-Esports FL980 mechanical keyboard. Based on reviews, it’s basically a wireless hotswap Leopold FC980M. Achieving similar levels of quality with its keyboard case and keycaps. You can get it from Aliexpress which should be U.S-friendly

  • Fantastic build quality - equivalent to Leopold FC980M
  • 3 connectivity options:- USB-C, 2.4Ghz wireless, bluetooth 5.0 (3 devices pairing) → you can connect to 5 devices total
  • 3,000mAh battery
  • 5-pin hotswap PCB
  • Your choice of Kailh box switches
  • Your choice of PBT Doubleshot keycaps (reminiscent of Leopold)
  • Compact 1800 layout with numberpad
  • Programmable with software
  • Per-key RGB
  • High profile case (you don’t see the switches)
  • Includes a silicon mute pad between plate and PCB

It does not have a dedicated PrintSc button but there are options to help you get it:

  1. Use the built-in default function of Fn + I
  2. Remap a key (e.g, Insert) as a dedicated PrintSc
  3. Create a new layer combination – my go-to on 60% boards is Fn + Enter
