Know before you buy
Varmilo EC (electrocapacitive) switches use non-contact technology to register keystrokes, which results in a smoother, more consistent feel and increased durability compared to traditional mechanical switches. They provide a distinct, premium typing experience that is highly regarded for its stability.
Yes, the keycaps are crafted from thick PBT plastic using a dye-sublimation process. This combination makes them highly resistant to the shine and wear that typically develop on standard ABS keycaps over time.
Yes, the MA108M is compatible with Mac, Windows, and Linux. While the layout is standard US QWERTY, you can use it seamlessly with macOS, though you may need to adjust your system settings to map specific function keys if you prefer a native Apple layout.
The keyboard features subtle white LED backlighting that can be adjusted for brightness. It is designed to provide a refined, clean aesthetic rather than a high-intensity gaming glow.
No, this is a standard full-size mechanical keyboard and does not include a palm rest. It also does not feature an ergonomic layout, so it is best suited for users who prefer a traditional, flat typing surface.
The keyboard includes a 60-inch cord for connectivity. Please note that the cable is fixed to the unit, so it cannot be swapped out for a custom coiled cable.
