Should I Get An External Mechanical Keyboard?

I am thinking of getting a new keyboard for my laptop as some of the keys have issues and since I cannot afford a new computer at the moment, I thought why not get an new external keyboard? I have one that was gifted to me from the office but I do not like it much and also it is kinda lousy. Should I get a mechanical keyboard? Looking at the benefits I might be tempted.

Mechanical keyboards have many benefits, including:

Typing experience – Mechanical keyboards provide tactile feedback and an audible click for each key, which can help you type faster and more accurately.

Durability – Mechanical keyboards are built to last and can withstand heavy use for over a decade. They are made with high-quality parts and durable materials, and damaged parts can be fixed without replacing the entire keyboard.

Customization – Mechanical keyboards can be customized to your needs and preferences. You can program macro keys, and you can also change the body, keycaps, layouts, and switches.

Ergonomics – Some mechanical keyboards are designed with ergonomics in mind, with features like a split design or wrist rest to reduce strain on your hands and wrists.

Gaming – Mechanical keyboards are a good choice for gamers because they offer superior key rollover and anti-ghosting capabilities. This ensures that every key press is registered accurately, even during intense gaming sessions.

Compatibility – Mechanical keyboards are compatible with many devices, including PCs, Macs, and some gaming consoles.

Aesthetic appeal – Mechanical keyboards often have a more premium look and feel than traditional membrane keyboards.

Arsenal 0 Newcastle United 2

Alexander Isak’s rich goalscoring form continued as Newcastle United took control of their Carabao Cup semi-final with a superb first-leg win against Arsenal at Emirates Stadium. Newcastle have never won the competition but will make their second final in three seasons if they avoid defeat, or lose by a one-goal margin, in the second leg at St James’ Park on 5 February. Arsenal, second in the Premier League, started the tie as favourites, but have it all to do in the return fixture. Isak scored his 14th goal in 15 games to set Newcastle on the way to their seventh successive win.

Goalkeeper Martin Dubravka’s free-kick was launched forward, Sven Botman headed the ball on and Jacob Murphy played it into Isak’s path with the Swede lifting a composed finish past David Raya. Anthony Gordon doubled the visitors’ lead in the 51st minute, converting the rebound after Raya could only parry Isak’s shot. Gabriel Martinelli had hit the post for the Gunners when the game was goalless, with Jurrien Timber and William Saliba also failing to score with close-range headers. Newcastle have been English champions four times and won six FA Cups, but have not lifted silverware since the Fairs Cup in 1969. However, their fans will be dreaming this is the year that long wait for a trophy ends.

Isak, a striker long linked with a move to Arsenal, showed the Gunners what they were missing with an excellent performance which got him a goal and an assist as he provided constant problems for Gabriel and Saliba. Having just seen his side lose at home for the first time this season, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta remained in defiant mood. Asked about his team’s chances of overturning a 2-0 home loss to Newcastle in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final, the Spaniard said he had “full belief” Arsenal could turn the tie around and still get to Wembley.
