I did a lot of research before settling on my first proper keyboard and the Bridge75 did not disappoint, sounds great, can use it on TVs because of the wireless option, customisability is good, all around very impressed, only issue I find is sometimes keycaps come off when removing the top part of the case, and aometimes switches come out when removing keycaps but nothing too bad. Can easily hit the on/off switch with a usb-c cable or an earring.
I purchased this keyboard to replace my Akko MOD 007s V2 due to my Akko's screws having threaded and the USB C Port becoming dodgy.
I did my usual looking online for reviews and decently priced keyboards that I could mod but not need to put a whole lot of work into.
The switches that came with the keyboard were surprisingly good, and if I didn't already order Gateron Baby Kangaroo V2's, I'd have used the stock ones. The stabilizers are also great, I won't be swapping them anytime soon, and the keycaps were fine, but I'd also ordered my first set of GMK's (Momo Yume) to go with it. The magnetic top case is extremely convenient.
My one gripe with this board is the "on/off" switch requires you to remove the top case (being magnetic helps), and use a small tool to swap on and off. I use the keyboard wired, so for me it's not a huge issue. But when I want to use it wireless it does present an annoying problem. Enough to remove 1 star, but not enough that I wouldn't recommend this board, because I 100% would to anyone starting the hobby, or wanting a solid, and well put together board.
Been using this keeb as a daily for a while now and still can't believe it's only $200 AUD! I find myself using this keeb more than my more expensive ones.

the custom keyboard scene has come a long way from how i remember it, back 4 or 5 years ago you would’ve had to part with like 500 bucks or more for something this good. snatch one yourself while you can.
