Its wired USB-C connection supports both Windows and Mac systems.

Key Features

Hot-swappable Gateron Orange optical switches enable quick switch replacement, letting users tailor the feel and sound without technical skills.
RGB backlighting provides customizable lighting effects to enhance visibility and aesthetics during use.
PBT dye-sublimated keycaps in OEM profile offer durability and a classic typing feel, resisting shine and wear over time.
Full 108-key layout includes a number pad, suitable for users needing extensive key options for productivity or gaming.
Winlock function disables the Windows key to prevent accidental interruptions during gaming or focused work.

Typing Experience

The pre-lubed Gateron Orange switches deliver a tactile response with moderate actuation force, balancing feedback and smoothness. The 4mm total travel and 2mm pre-travel distance support comfortable typing speed and accuracy. The keyboard’s sound profile is tactile but not silent, making it less ideal for noise-sensitive environments.

Build and Connectivity

The keyboard weighs 1.2kg and measures 442 x 132 x 41mm, providing a stable typing platform without being overly bulky. It connects via wired USB Type-C, ensuring reliable and low-latency input. Wireless options are not available, which may limit portability.

Compatibility

It supports both Windows and Mac operating systems, making it versatile for different users. The standard 108-key layout ensures compatibility with most software and keymapping tools. Firmware customization details are unknown.

Trade-offs

No wireless connectivity limits use to wired setups only.
The tactile switch sound may be distracting in quiet environments.
Unknown firmware customization options may restrict advanced remapping or macro programming.
