Which is better for competitive gaming?

The NZXT Function 2 Mini. Its 8,000 Hz polling, 0.2 ms response and adjustable 1 mm or 1.5 mm actuation are aimed at fast play, and the small body leaves mouse room.

Which is better for typing and spreadsheets?

The AULA F106 Pro. The 104-key layout includes a number pad, which the MiniTKL NZXT leaves out.

Only the NZXT gives a figure: 100 million presses on its optical switches. Aula does not state a rating, so there is no number to compare.

At $49.99 as of November 2, 2026, it is cheap for optical switches, 8,000 Hz polling and an aluminium body. Whether it beats the AULA depends on the AULA's price, which was not given.

Does the NZXT work with a console?

Yes. The listing says it works with Xbox and PlayStation over USB. The AULA is listed for PC use.

Can I use either on a Mac?

Both list Windows and Mac compatibility. Expect some NZXT software features to be Windows-only.
