Maybe too affordable. The Epomaker HE75 Mag claims to do many things at a mere $99, but in reality, there are simply too many issues to ignore. It's obvious Epomaker knows what goes into a great gaming keyboard. But, between the lacklustre switches and overall lack of polish, you're better off spending a little more or buying a mechanical keyboard.

All others are dwarves. A 15.6-inch screen is already mid-range for a laptop, but for a tablet it is truly huge.
