Whatgeek has the Ajazz AK820 Pro on sale for $48.39 after applying coupon GAMING12. Free shipping (7-15 days according to their website).
Available in 2 colors: White/Purple and Black/Grey/Yellow, and with 2 different switch options. The Gift switches feel a bit deeper and sound creamier, while the Flying Fish switches are lighter, faster, and sound clackier.
I've been researching mechanical keyboards for a while now — this is an excellent deal if you're new to the hobby or are on a tight budget. Yes, it has a plastic case, but everything else is an amazing value for under $50.
✅ Wireless (Bluetooth & 2.4 GHz)
✅ Hot-swappable switches
✅ South-facing LEDs
✅ Knob (if you're into that)
✅ TFT screen (if you're into that)

Their discord is a complete shambles.
I have ordered from them twice but recently things have gone downhill so I wouldn't support them.

The TH80 line is definitely worth a look, especially at $50. I'm personally not a huge fan of the TH80-X aesthetic (and also don't like the fact that you can't use that knob for volume control), but it has everything else that one might be looking for at this price point!
One quick point for anyone looking into the TH80-SE – that keyboard has north-facing LEDs.

I second this. Horrible experience with their customer support after receiving defective items. Eventually had to dispute the charge with my credit card because they refused to provide a refund

What's the knob used for then? Also, I got the TH80-SE. Was that a mistake?

Why key did you get if dont mind me asking? Sounds Just like cherry red?
Hipyo Tech has a good breakdown of the 3 versions of the TH-80 here: https://youtu.be/E-gx-X1Ifvo
TL;DR – the knob on the X is used to navigate the LCD screen menu.
Also, north-facing LEDs are only an issue if you want to replace the switches with certain types. There are certain brands of switches that aren't compatible with north-facing LEDs (not sure which off the top of my head). But plenty are compatible, so it's not like you have no options if you want to customize down the line.
FWIW, I would pick the SE if I were looking at the TH-80 line.
