Product Description

The Ducky One 2 Horizon is a wired tenkeyless mechanical keyboard suited for users who want a compact layout with reliable Cherry MX switches. It fits well for typists and gamers who prefer a solid build and consistent key feel without the need for hot-swappable switches or wireless connectivity. Its distinctive blue case and keycaps offer a unique look for those seeking color variety in their setup.

Key Features

  • Equipped with German-made Cherry MX switches, providing a range of tactile and linear options to match different typing preferences.
  • Detachable USB-C cable allows for easy transport and replacement.
  • Three-level adjustable feet enable users to customize typing angle for comfort.
  • Full N-key rollover ensures simultaneous key presses register accurately, useful for fast typists and gamers.
  • Multimedia keys provide quick access to media controls without additional software.

Build Quality

  • Plastic case with an exclusive blue colorway and multi-colored PBT keycaps, which resist shine and wear better than ABS.
  • Plate-mounted switches contribute to a stable and firm keypress feel.
  • Dual-layer PCB enhances durability and signal reliability.

Typing Experience

  • OEM profile keycaps offer a familiar shape, suitable for users transitioning from standard keyboards.
  • North-facing switch orientation affects keycap compatibility with certain aftermarket sets.
  • Switch options include tactile, linear, and clicky variants, allowing users to select according to their sound and feedback preferences.
  • Not hot-swappable, so switch replacement requires soldering skills.

Compatibility

  • ANSI layout with US QWERTY logical layout supports Windows systems natively.
  • Unknown firmware customization options, limiting advanced remapping or macro programming.

Trade-offs

  • No wireless connectivity, restricting use to wired setups only.
  • Lacks built-in audio or microphone ports, which some users may find inconvenient.
  • Not hot-swappable, limiting easy switch customization.
  • Plastic construction may feel less robust compared to metal-bodied keyboards.
