Product Description

The AULA F87 is a tenkeyless mechanical keyboard designed for users who want a quiet, customizable typing experience with flexible connectivity. It suits gamers needing fast response times and typists who prefer a soft, cushioned feel and durable keycaps. Its hot-swappable PCB allows easy switch changes without soldering, making it a good choice for hobbyists and those who like to tailor their keyboard.

Key Features

  • Gasket-mounted design provides a soft, cushioned typing feel by isolating the plate from the case, reducing harsh feedback.
  • Hot-swappable PCB supports both 3-pin and 5-pin switches, enabling quick switch customization without tools.
  • NKRO (N-Key Rollover) and a 3ms response time ensure accurate and fast key registration, useful for gaming and fast typing.
  • Five-layer sound-dampening with IXPE and PORON foam reduces typing noise for quieter environments.
  • Durable double-shot PBT keycaps resist shine and wear, maintaining texture and color over time.
  • Adjustable feet offer two typing angles to improve ergonomics.
  • Tri-mode connectivity includes Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4GHz wireless, and USB-C wired options for versatile use cases.

Build Quality and Typing Experience

The keyboard’s ABS case houses a gasket-mounted structure that softens keystrokes and dampens sound. Pre-lubed stabilizers and a switch pad contribute to smooth, consistent keypresses. The included linear switches have a moderate actuation force and a lifespan rated at 60 million strokes. The compact TKL layout retains arrow and function keys while saving desk space.

Connectivity

The F87 offers three connectivity modes. Wired USB-C provides stable, low-latency input for gaming or work. Wireless 2.4GHz and Bluetooth 5.0 allow cable-free use with compatible devices, though wireless latency and battery life details are unknown. Switching between modes is seamless, supporting different setups and environments.

Trade-offs

  • The ABS case is less premium-feeling and potentially less durable than metal alternatives.
  • Battery capacity is 4000mAh, but actual wireless runtime is not specified.
  • Switch options are limited to the included linear types; other switch varieties require separate purchase.
  • Firmware and keymapping customization details are unknown, which may limit advanced remapping or macro use.
