Excellent "budget " option for a 60% wireless mechanical keyboard

I've been looking into mechanical keyboards lately. I am currently using a Redragon K580 VATA Blue Switch (given to me by my brother who is a big gamer). I immediately fell in love with the sound and feel of the Redragon keyboard. Call me biased, but I wanted to see what else Redragon had to offer. I also recently bought an iPad Pro so I was looking for a wireless/bluetooth option. Then I came across this mechanical keyboard which was reasonably priced and suited my needs. I prefer the blue switches, but this keyboard is currently only available in brown (video included). If you're looking for something portable, reliable, wireless, and beautiful, this keyboard might be for you. Some of the buttons have multiple functions and there are some fun RGB patterns. If you want a wired connection, there's USB-C that offers that capability. All of your keyboard/USB-C switches are on the left side of the keyboard. Cons: I deducted a star for Bluetooth functionality. I've seen reviewers say they haven't had any issues switching devices, but unfortunately I had a few hiccups. I was experimenting between two laptops and an iPad Pro. When I've tried switching to each device, there's either a lag or the Bluetooth connection needs to be reset via PC or iPad. However, it's not that hard for me to get it back since it only takes a few seconds to plug it back in. There are many other Bluetooth keyboard options, but they are TOO EXPENSIVE. Try this keyboard if it's what you need in the market but you're on a budget.
