AULA HERO84 HE vs Epomaker G84 HEWired Metal vs Wireless Gasket

Only the Epomaker G84 HE is wireless. It supports tri-mode connectivity via Bluetooth, 2.4GHz RF, and a wired USB-C connection. The AULA HERO84 HE is a wired-only keyboard.

Yes, but only on the Epomaker G84 HE. It features a hot-swappable PCB, allowing you to pull out and replace switches without soldering. The AULA HERO84 HE is not hot-swappable; its switches are soldered in place.

The mounting structure differs significantly. The Epomaker uses a gasket mount with a polycarbonate plate and multiple foam layers, aiming for a softer, more cushioned feel. The AULA uses a standard mount with an aluminum plate and metal case, which typically results in a firmer, more direct typing feedback.

Yes, both the AULA HERO84 HE and the Epomaker G84 HE use linear magnetic Hall Effect switches. These allow for features like adjustable actuation points and rapid trigger, where the actuation point can be set as low as 0.01mm.

Both keyboards advertise an 8000Hz polling rate in their wired modes. The Epomaker G84 HE also maintains 8000Hz in its 2.4GHz wireless mode, but drops to 125Hz when using Bluetooth.

The Epomaker G84 HE lists more comprehensive sound dampening materials, including a PORON sandwich foam, IXPE switch pad, sound enhancement pad, PORON switch socket pad, and bottom silicone. The AULA HERO84 HE vendor description mentions a 5-layer sound dampening system but does not specify the materials.

Yes, the keycaps on both keyboards are standard mechanical keyboard keycaps that can be pulled off with a keycap puller. Both use PBT material keycaps, which are more resistant to shine than ABS.

The Epomaker G84 HE is more portable in terms of connectivity, as it doesn't require a cable. However, it weighs 1000g (over 2 lbs), making it quite heavy. The AULA HERO84 HE is wired but may be lighter, though its exact weight is not specified in the provided information.

Yes, both product listings explicitly state Mac and Windows support. The Epomaker G84 HE includes a physical switch to toggle between Mac and Windows key layouts.

According to Epomaker, the box contains the G84 HE keyboard, a multilingual manual, a detachable USB A-to-C cable, a 2.4GHz wireless dongle, a switch puller, and three extra magnetic switches.

Both have per-key RGB backlighting. A critical difference is the LED placement: the AULA HERO84 HE uses south-facing LEDs, while the Epomaker G84 HE uses north-facing LEDs. This can affect compatibility with certain aftermarket keycap profiles.
