Know before you buy
While the layout and keycaps are optimized for macOS, it is a standard mechanical keyboard and will function on Windows. However, you will lose the specific Mac-labeled function keys and native macOS shortcuts.
Cherry MX Clear switches are tactile, meaning you will feel a noticeable 'bump' when the key is pressed. They are stiffer and have a heavier actuation force than the more common Cherry MX Brown switches, making them ideal for users who prefer a more deliberate, precise typing feel.
No, this model does not feature dedicated media keys. You can access media controls through secondary function layers, which is standard for a 65% compact layout.
The backlighting is single-color white. You can adjust the brightness levels and toggle through different lighting modes directly on the keyboard, but you cannot change the color.
Yes, the keyboard uses a detachable cable, which makes it easier to pack for travel or replace if the cable is ever damaged.
The 65% layout removes the number pad and separates the function row into a secondary layer to save desk space. If your workflow relies heavily on data entry or software that requires constant access to F-keys, you may need a brief adjustment period to get used to the function layer shortcuts.
