Hall effect keyboard recommendations

[Acerius]

I currently have a Razer Huntsman V2 Analog, which is starting to give out after years of abuse, most notably my E key starting to fly off every time I hit the key too hard.

I have heard that 'hall effect' switches are supposed to be the latest and greatest compared to mechanical switches, and I wanted to know if anyone has used a hall effect keyboard and if they're worth the hype. If so, I'd also appreciate any recommendations on what to purchase.

I would be looking for a full-size or 96% keyboard only as I do regularly use the numpad, in a UK-ISO layout (not particularly interested in trying out ANSI).

Second hand info, so take with a grain of salt:
My friend has one and it has seemed pretty cool, they use it daily while I have only tapped on it once but it is pretty nice. Plus I am anti-clacky keyboard and that was probably my favorite part was how it makes less noise, but I have not heard complaints from them about it! I can see if I cannot get in contact and ask them if it is worth the upgrade, but from that experience I will probably get one myself when mine dies.

Currently using a Steel Series Apex Pro and I love it - there are cheaper alternatives out there that do the job just as good, but I have a couple bits of steelseries gear so I went wit this. Support is good, and config is nice. Steelseries GG software is useful, can be a bit buggy but is nice to use. Can change simple settings on the keyboard itself, alongside creating config profiles that stick to the board itself too, as I use it for both gaming and work, so I have different settings for if it's connected to the software, or to my work mac.

I haven't really used the hall effect magic much, it's nice being able to set the actuation point, and took a bit to get used to the fact I can make it trigger on essentially a hairpin touch.
It has some features such as dual binds eg if I press a key all the way down it can do something different, but like I say, not really touched that yet.

Overall, rate it well and it is a sturdy, very nice keyboard to use.

I'd say look at that, and any Keychron as they're rated as well.
