I'm looking at switching to a 60% keyboard, I'm not too far familiar with all the different mechanical switches. Currently I'm looking at the Anne pro 2 but there is lots of different switch versions.

Could anyone give me advice on what is the go to switches and if anyone has a better recommendation for a different keyboard that would be awesome

I have an ASUS ROG Falchion 65% keyboard, I don't think I could live without the arrow keys. In terms of switches, you really just need to test them to see what you like, you can get Cherry / Gateron switch samples on places like eBay, although I tend to stick with Red or Brown switches as they feel good to me.

Switched from a full size keyboard to a 60% a couple months ago and was in the same case as Tele. Switched to a TKL and loved it ever since. Personally wouldn't recommend a 60%.

But to answer your question you could go to a best buy or a store similar and look at the keyboards on display and take a key off to look at the switch now not all are going to be the same but they'll mostly sound the same.
