Know before you buy
A 60% layout removes the number pad, function row, and navigation cluster to save desk space. While this is excellent for portability and mouse movement, you will need to use function key combinations to access features like arrow keys or F-keys.
Yes, the ACR59 features a hot-swappable PCB. This means you can pull out the pre-installed Akko CS Jelly Pink switches and plug in most standard 3-pin or 5-pin mechanical switches without needing to solder.
These are linear switches, meaning they provide a smooth, consistent keystroke without a tactile bump or audible click. With an actuation force of 45gf, they offer a light, responsive feel that is popular for both gaming and fast-paced typing.
Yes, the keyboard is compatible with macOS, Windows, and Linux. Keep in mind that as a standard mechanical keyboard, you may need to adjust your system's modifier key settings in the OS preferences to match your preferred layout.
The CNC-machined acrylic case is sturdy and provides a premium, solid feel on your desk. However, like all acrylic, it is prone to surface scratches if handled roughly, so it is best to treat it with care to maintain its translucent finish.
The ACR59 uses a wired USB Type-C connection. A detachable cable is included, which makes it easy to pack up for travel or swap out for a custom cable of your choice.
