Know before you buy
Double Shot PBT keycaps are highly resistant to wear and shine, meaning the legends will not fade over time and the texture will remain consistent even after heavy use. They provide a more premium, rigid feel compared to standard ABS plastic keycaps.
No, the Leopold FC900R OE uses physical dip switches located on the underside of the keyboard to adjust the layout. This allows you to swap keys like Caps Lock and Ctrl or change the OS mode without needing to install any background software.
The internal dampening material helps absorb vibrations and reduces the hollow 'ping' sound often found in mechanical keyboards. It results in a more refined, solid sound profile and a slightly softer bottom-out feel.
Yes, the keyboard is compatible with macOS, Windows, and Linux. While it is designed with a standard layout, you can use the dip switches to optimize the key functionality for a Mac environment.
No, this model does not include backlighting. It is designed for users who prefer a clean, professional aesthetic and do not require illumination for typing in low-light conditions.
Yes, the keyboard features a detachable USB-C connection. You can easily swap the included 70-inch cable for any standard USB-C cable if you need a different length or color.
