Pros and Trade-offs

For users who want a highly customizable platform with a screen and the ability to experiment with different mounting systems, the Meletrix Zoom75 TIGA is the clear choice. Its versatility makes it a long-term project that can adapt to your preferences. If you prioritize a complete, cohesive aesthetic and a ready-to-travel kit, the ZOOM75 X KITSUNE offers a beautifully themed package that is ready for assembly with fewer decisions to make.

Meletrix Zoom75 TIGA

  • +Full CNC aluminum case provides a premium and sturdy build quality.
  • +Features an integrated screen module that can be programmed to display various information.
  • +Offers a unique ball-catch system for tool-free switching between four different mounting systems.
  • +Includes a massive 8000mAh battery (2 x 4000mAh) for long-lasting wireless use.
  • +Programmable with both QMK and VIA for extensive keymap and macro customization.
  • −The full aluminum construction makes it very heavy at 3000g, which is less portable.

  • −The TIGA's 7-degree typing angle is fixed and may not suit all ergonomic preferences.
  • −It is a barebones DIY kit, requiring separate purchase of switches and keycaps.

Meletrix ZOOM75 X KITSUNE

  • +Kit comes with a Poron dampener kit and polycarbonate plate for a specific sound profile out of the box.
  • −Does not include a screen, which is a key feature available on the TIGA model.
  • −Its gasket mount design is a single mounting style, offering less flexibility for customization compared to the TIGA.
  • −The kit does not include a knob, despite having a knob module, so a separate purchase is needed.
  • −The case material is a mix of aluminum and plastic, which may feel less premium than the TIGA's full aluminum construction.
