Best budget gaming keyboard under $50 in 2026?

[umairaalam]

Hi everyone,

I’m looking to upgrade my keyboard but I don’t want to spend too much. My budget is around $40–$50, and I mainly play FPS and some casual RPGs. I’ve been using a basic membrane keyboard for a while, and I’m thinking about switching to a mechanical one, but I’m not sure which brand or switch type is best for that price range.

Things I care about:

• Good durability
• Comfortable for long gaming sessions
• Decent build quality
• Preferably RGB, but not required

I’ve seen a few options online from brands like Redragon and some lesser-known ones, but I’m not sure which ones are actually worth buying.

What budget keyboards are you guys using right now?
Any recommendations or experiences would really help.


Thanks!
