Epomaker Split70 vs TH108Split Ergonomics vs Full-Size Value

The TH108 has a significantly larger 8000mAh battery compared to the Split70's 3000mAh battery. The manufacturer states the TH108 can last up to 160 hours with the backlight off, while the Split70 is rated for 260 hours off. For typical use with lighting, the TH108's larger capacity will provide longer wireless runtime.

Yes, the Split70 halves can be connected together with the included USB C-to-C cable to function as a single, fixed-width keyboard. You can also choose to separate them for the ergonomic split typing experience, offering flexibility in your setup.

The Split70 offers superior software customization. It supports both VIA and QMK, which are open-source tools allowing for deep, real-time remapping of every key and layer. The TH108 uses a proprietary web-based driver for remapping and macros.

Only the TH108 lists a specific silent switch option, the Sea Salt Silent Switch. The Split70 is listed with linear switches, and its vendor description does not mention a silent variant, though you could install silent switches into its hot-swap sockets.

The Split70 is specifically designed for ergonomic comfort. Its split layout allows you to position each half to align with your shoulders, promoting a more natural typing posture that can help alleviate tension in the wrists, arms, and shoulders during long sessions.

The Split70 includes a USB A-to-C cable, a USB C-to-C cable for connecting halves, a 2-in-1 puller, three extra switches, three Mac keycaps, and a manual. The TH108 includes a USB A-to-C cable, a 2-in-1 puller, two extra switches, a 2.4GHz receiver, and a manual.

Both use PBT keycaps in a Cherry profile, which are more durable than ABS. The TH108's keycaps are made with a double-shot technique, while the Split70's use dye sublimation. Both methods produce durable legends, with double-shot often allowing for backlit shine-through.

Yes, both keyboards list Mac compatibility. The Split70 specifically includes three Mac modifier keycaps (Command, Option) in the box to replace the Windows keys, making the transition easier.

Both use a gasket mount structure with five layers of sound dampening, but the materials differ. The Split70 uses sandwiched latex, IXPE switch pad, PET sound-enhancement pad, bottom sponge, and bottom silicone. The TH108 uses PORON sandwich foam, IXPE switch pad, sound-enhancement PET, PORON switch socket foam, and bottom silicone.

Both offer a 1000Hz polling rate in wired and 2.4GHz modes. The manufacturer-listed latency is very close: 3ms (wired) for the Split70 vs 2ms for the TH108, and 5ms (2.4GHz) for both. In practice, this difference is negligible for most users.

Yes, the TH108 is a full-size keyboard measuring 445mm in length and weighing 1200g. The Split70, when its two halves are placed together, has a total length of approximately 372mm and weighs 890g, making it more compact and lighter.
