Pros and Trade-offs

If you need a compact keyboard for travel or a small desk and appreciate the included wrist rest, the Yunzii B87 is the practical choice. However, for users who want the highest feature density including a numpad, knob, OLED screen, and an 8000mAh battery, the Yunzii B98 PRO justifies its slightly larger footprint. The B98 PRO's aluminum plate and extensive customization options also make it the stronger pick for modders and power users.
