Know before you buy
The gasket-mounted design uses silicone padding to isolate the plate from the aluminum chassis, resulting in a softer, more cushioned typing feel. It reduces harsh vibrations and creates a more consistent, muted sound profile compared to traditional tray-mount keyboards.
Yes, the Hyeku Y7 features five-pin hot-swappable sockets. This allows you to pull out the stock switches and plug in most standard mechanical switches without needing to solder.
You can connect the keyboard via a wired USB-C cable, Bluetooth for multi-device pairing, or the included 2.4GHz wireless dongle for a low-latency connection. This makes it easy to switch between a desktop, laptop, or tablet setup seamlessly.
No, the handrest is detachable. It is designed to be easily removed if you prefer a lower profile or need to save desk space, though it is included specifically to provide extra wrist support during long sessions.
The keyboard is equipped with a 5000mAh battery, which provides significant longevity for wireless use. Actual battery life will vary depending on your RGB brightness settings and how frequently you use the wireless connection.
The 82-key layout is a compact 75% design that retains the function row and arrow keys, making it highly efficient for both gaming and professional tasks. While it lacks a dedicated number pad, it keeps all essential navigation keys in a smaller footprint.
