Which to pick
Two budget wireless 75% boards with gasket mounts, hot-swap sockets, knobs and per-key RGB, both around $80 to $90 at US list price, and both described by owners as thocky.
The Aula F75 has the bigger battery (4,000 mAh against 3,000), the thick foam stack behind its soft sound, and Cherry-profile keycaps, which sit lower than the Akko's ASA profile. It's the one to pick if sound out of the box matters most.
The Akko 5075B Plus comes in far more colourways and themes, with taller ASA-profile keycaps and Akko's own V3 Pro switches, and its sockets are confirmed for 5-pin switches. Pick it if looks matter as much as sound.
Neither has a confirmed UK ISO version: Aula's ISO boards have German, Spanish or French legends, and Akko's EU ISO listing may not include UK legends. Both use their makers' own software rather than QMK or VIA. If you need a UK layout, look at the Keychron V1 Max instead.
