Know before you buy
The TKL design removes the number pad on the right side, resulting in a more compact keyboard. This provides extra room for your mouse, which is particularly helpful for gaming or smaller workspace setups.
Yes, PBT plastic is significantly more resistant to wear and shine than the standard ABS plastic found on many keyboards. The double-shot molding process ensures the legends will never fade, as they are physically molded into the keycap rather than printed on top.
Absolutely. The keyboard features a detachable USB-C cable, allowing you to easily replace it with any standard USB-C cable if you need a different length or if the original is damaged.
The adjustable feet allow you to choose between three different typing angles. This helps you find a more comfortable wrist position to reduce strain during long typing or gaming sessions.
Yes, it features full N-Key Rollover (NKRO). This means the keyboard can register every key press simultaneously, ensuring that no inputs are missed during fast-paced typing or complex gaming maneuvers.
No, the switches on this model are soldered directly to the dual-layer PCB. You should choose your preferred switch type at the time of purchase, as they cannot be swapped out later without desoldering.
