Although these are great mechanical keyboards, I don't think they are ideal for portability. The Keychron one you linked is 0.7Kg (1.6lbs) which is quite a lot if you want to carry it around. I have a Keychron TKL and it's really heavy with the aluminium frame.
Yeah, OP should NOT get one with an aluminum case. The K12 I linked has the option, unless I am mistaken.
