Pros and Trade-offs

Your choice depends on prioritizing battery life or weight. The Epomaker TH108 is the better all-rounder for stationary use, offering superior battery life, more accessories, and ergonomic adjustability. The Epomaker F108 is the leaner option, trading battery capacity for a lighter build and a polycarbonate plate, suitable if you value a slightly less hefty keyboard on your desk.

Which Keyboard Is Better for Your Needs?

The TH108 holds advantages for office and content creation due to its silent switch option, larger battery, and adjustable ergonomics. The F108 is the better choice for travel solely based on its lower weight. For gaming, programming, and modding, the keyboards are effectively tied, sharing nearly identical core specs like polling rate, layout, and hot-swap capability.
