2. If not which is the best one one, alphs, chicony or nmb?

NMB far better. Choose witch layout you want US, UK, FR does no mater.

its hard to say which is "Better" because its subjective. Ive used the NMB and the Chicoy and prefer the NMB, but I can und peopleliking the more travel from the Chicony
