I've got the Keychron K7, it has low profile switches and keycaps and works pretty alright. Since I use my Deck as a dev machine and do my general computer stuff on it as well, In almost always bring it with me.
The downside to the K7 I'd say is the battery life. I often have it plugged in when at home and it lasts me when I'm out but the Bluetooth dies quickly on it when I forget to do so.
They have a re-programmable version of it as well and while I don't have that one to save a bit of cash I'd wager it works a bit nicer.
There's also different switches available to purchase. I have the keychron browns but hope to upgrade to the Gateron Banana or equivalent one day.
