    It may not be a Model M, and it may not be designed for gaming, but the TVS Bharat Gold keyboard is one of India’s most popular keyboards due to its great value…but is it still the best without Cherry MX key switches?

      cherry MX really isn't that special, I feel the word "clone" is thrown around a lot by people who aren't familiar with the mech keys market. At this point, the "clones" actually make cherry look bad, I remember using Kailh box white click bars for the first time, which use a different design form the click jacket in MX blues, but still have the same concept of the switch being "clicky," and they put blues to shame, the click feels sharper and cleaner, the sound is nice and thick, people really need to start looking at Kailh, Gateron, and Novelkeys more, as they have made so many improvements to their old designs that they arent really clones anymore like they were around 2012.

    Because it's so God Damn good.
    Mine's 8 years old and still works like a charm, the only thing I have to look out for whenever using that is whether the rig has a PS2 port
    Edit: mine has the original cherry ones though

      Ps2 to USB adapters have been around for ages.

      ye but the mechanical switches are way more comfortable than membrane and the old mechanical-like switches. But they break easier since they are a more complicated mechanism and I dd say getting 5-8 years off of them is pretty darn good

      Most motherboards should have at least one PS2 port, so no need to buy an adapter just yet.

      I had one till about 4 years ago. Spilled a little (like a spoonful) water on it once. It stopped working immediately. Not even a chance to dry it out or something. Later took it apart to test what went wrong. Apparently it shorted, somehow. Was great while it lasted but I am not a fan of large Enter keys (The EU layout is worse. Had to tolerate one at work for almost 2 years). I prefer brown switches now anyway. Still, the old TVS Gold was pretty much the only affordable mechanical kb we Indians had access to before the RGB rage really caught on.

    Why do English CZcamsrs Necessarily need to use an Indian Background Music in a Video related to Indian Stuff?😂

      It adds level of mystique and how hard it was to get that keyboard. Also keeps reminding us of that its a difference between west and east, or in this case India.
