Our Verdict

Ducky One 2 Mini V1

Ducky MIYA Pro

The Ducky One 2 Mini V1 and the Ducky MIYA Pro are very similar overall. The main difference is that the MIYA Pro is a 65% keyboard, while the One 2 Mini V1 is a 60%. They have similar latency and are both available in various Cherry MX switches. The MIYA Pro feels better built and is more comfortable to type on for long periods. It has customization software, which the One 2 Mini V1 lacks, but it's difficult to use.
