Ajazz AK870 Plus

The Ajazz AK870 Plus is a tenkeyless mechanical keyboard designed for users who want flexible connectivity and a quieter typing experience. It suits office workers or hobbyists who value reduced noise and the ability to switch between wired, 2.4G wireless, and Bluetooth modes. Its hot-swappable switches and improved battery capacity also appeal to those who customize their typing feel and need longer wireless use.

Key Features

• Triple-mode connection allows seamless switching between wired USB-C, 2.4G wireless, and Bluetooth, supporting multiple devices and major operating systems.
• Hot-swappable PCB enables easy switch replacement without soldering, supporting customization and maintenance.
• South-facing RGB backlighting with two-color PBT keycaps provides consistent lighting effects and durability.
• Upgraded 8000mAh battery capacity extends wireless usage compared to previous models.

Build Quality and Acoustics

• 5-layer FillingGasket Structure uses sound-absorbing materials to reduce cavity noise, resulting in a quieter typing sound.
• Single key slotted PCB and slotted PC positioning plate minimize typing noise by stabilizing key movement.
• ABS case material and gasket mount design offer moderate durability and improved typing comfort through vibration dampening.

Typing Experience

• Available with three linear switch options varying in actuation force, allowing users to choose a lighter or heavier keypress.
• Pre-travel and total travel distances are standard, supporting fast and smooth key response.
• Sound dampening features reduce harsh typing noise, making it suitable for quieter environments.

Connectivity and Compatibility

• Bluetooth mode supports Windows, MacOS, iOS, and Android, but Windows 7 and earlier require 2.4G or wired connection.
• 2.4G wireless offers low-latency connection for devices without Bluetooth or when stable connection is needed.
• Wired USB-C connection ensures reliable performance and charging.

Trade-offs

• ABS case is less premium-feeling and less durable than metal or higher-grade plastic alternatives.
• Keyboard weight and size are moderate but may be less portable compared to smaller layouts.
• Software support is available but details on firmware customization are limited, which may restrict advanced remapping.
