Know before you buy
BNIB stands for 'Brand New In Box.' This indicates that the item has never been used, assembled, or removed from its original packaging.
The Copper plate is rigid and provides a firmer, more metallic typing feel with a higher-pitched sound profile. The POM plate is softer and more flexible, offering a cushioned typing experience with a deeper, muted acoustic signature.
Yes, a Solder PCB requires you to manually solder each mechanical switch to the board. This is a permanent installation method that offers a very stable connection compared to hot-swap alternatives.
The foam kit includes dampening materials designed to sit between the PCB and the plate or case. It is used to reduce hollow sounds and refine the overall acoustics of the keyboard for a more solid, premium typing sound.
The Envoy is compatible with standard MX-style mechanical switches. Since this kit uses a solderable PCB, you can use almost any 3-pin or 5-pin MX switch on the market.
No, the Envoy does not feature integrated backlighting or RGB LEDs. It is designed as a minimalist, high-performance board that prioritizes build quality and acoustics over lighting effects.
