Know before you buy
TKL stands for Tenkeyless, meaning this keyboard layout omits the dedicated numeric keypad on the right side. This design provides a more compact footprint, allowing for better ergonomics and more desk space for your mouse.
No, this is a custom keyboard kit. You will need to assemble the case, install your own switches and keycaps, and configure the board to your preference.
The plate material significantly changes the feel and sound of your typing. A PC (polycarbonate) plate offers a softer, more flexible typing feel with a deeper sound profile, while the Aluminum plate provides a stiffer, more rigid feel with a crisper, higher-pitched sound.
Yes, the Zoom TKL EE is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux. Because it is VIA compatible, you can easily remap keys and create custom layers regardless of your OS.
Yes, the board supports Bluetooth connectivity, allowing you to use it wirelessly with your devices. It also includes a coiled cable for a clean, wired connection if you prefer.
The Poron dampening kit is designed to reduce unwanted vibrations and hollow sounds within the case. Installing these materials results in a more refined, 'thocky' acoustic signature and a more cushioned typing experience.
