What customers say
Enthusiasts overwhelmingly praise the Mino Keys Neo65 copper extras for significantly elevating the keyboard's quality and feel. The copper weight is highly valued for adding substantial heft, improving desk stability, and delivering a luxurious density. A major highlight is the acoustic improvement; users report the copper components create a deeper, more resonant sound profile. The potential for a unique patina over time is also seen as a desirable personalization feature. While these premium add-ons carry a higher cost, the consensus is that the tangible gains in build quality and typing experience fully justify the investment for serious Neo65 owners seeking superior components.
Know before you buy
Plate material significantly alters the keyboard's acoustics and flex. Polycarbonate offers a softer, more flexible typing experience with a deeper sound profile, while materials like Aluminum or Carbon Fiber provide a firmer, more rigid feel with a crisper sound.
The Solder PCB requires you to manually solder each switch to the board, which is ideal if you want a specific layout or a more secure connection. The Hotswap PCB allows you to plug and play switches without soldering, making it much easier to swap them out later if you want to experiment with different switch types.
No, these extras are specifically engineered for the Neo65 Cu system. They are designed to fit its unique mounting structure and internal dimensions, so they will not be compatible with other keyboard models.
These PCBs are designed for Cherry PCB-mount stabilizers. Ensure you have a set of these on hand, as they are the standard for this mounting style and will provide the best performance and compatibility.
The accessory pack is primarily for users who want spare parts for maintenance or those who have lost small components during assembly. If your base kit is complete and you don't anticipate needing extra screws or gaskets, it is not strictly necessary.
Yes, the Hotswap PCB supports standard Cherry MX style switches. This includes most mechanical switches on the market, giving you a wide range of options for customizing your typing feel and sound.
