Product Description

The DEADLINE Doys Pad Macro Keyboard is a compact macro pad designed for users who want to extend their keyboard functionality with customizable keys and knobs. It suits professionals and hobbyists who need quick access to programmable shortcuts and control adjustments. Its small footprint and dual connectivity options make it flexible for desktop setups or mobile use.

Key Features

  • Eight hot-swappable mechanical switch sockets allow easy customization or replacement of switches without soldering, compatible with most 3-pin and 5-pin MX-style switches.
  • Two dedicated knobs provide additional control inputs, useful for volume, scrolling, or other adjustable parameters, with two color options included for personalization.
  • Fully programmable via VIA software, enabling precise macro creation and key remapping to fit specific workflows.
  • RGB backlighting adds visual feedback and customization possibilities.

Build Quality

The case is made from anodized 6063 aluminum, offering a solid and durable feel. The compact design weighs 0.3kg, making it portable yet sturdy enough for desktop use.

Connectivity

The Doys Pad supports wired USB Type-C and wireless Bluetooth 5.0 connections. This dual-mode setup allows users to switch between stable wired use and flexible wireless operation depending on their environment.

Trade-offs

  • With only eight keys and two knobs, this macro pad is limited in the number of simultaneous inputs compared to larger macro keyboards.
  • Battery capacity is 600mAh, but actual wireless usage time is unknown.
  • The compact layout may not suit users needing extensive macro setups or full keyboard replacement.
