Epomaker TH108 Pro Mechanical Keyboard

The Epomaker TH108 Pro is a full-sized mechanical keyboard designed for users who want a versatile device for gaming and office work. It suits those who value long wireless use, customizable typing feel, and visual feedback through a built-in smart screen. This keyboard supports multiple connection types and offers hot-swappable switches for easy customization. It is a good fit for users who want a stable, feature-rich keyboard with enhanced acoustics and a large battery, but less ideal if you prefer a compact layout or need screw-in stabilizers.

Key Features

• Integrated TFT smart screen and volume knob allow quick access to time, battery status, and RGB controls without interrupting workflow.
• Hot-swappable 5-pin mechanical switches enable users to change switch types without soldering, supporting customization of typing feel and sound.
• Tri-mode connectivity (USB-C wired, 2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth 5.0) allows seamless switching between up to five devices, supporting Mac, Windows, and Android.
• Large 10,000mAh battery supports extended wireless use, reducing interruptions for charging during long sessions.
• Adjustable RGB backlighting with south-facing LEDs enhances visibility and personalization in low-light environments.

Build Quality

• Thick ABS plastic case weighing over 1.1kg provides a stable typing base that resists movement during use.
• Gasket-mounted design with five layers of sound dampening materials reduces typing noise and cushions keypress impact for a softer feel.
• Double-shot PBT keycaps resist wear and maintain legends over time, supporting durability for heavy use.
• Plate and PCB feature flex-cut designs to allow subtle keyboard flex, contributing to typing comfort.
• Includes a two-stage adjustable kickstand offering three typing angles (6, 8, and 10.5 degrees) for ergonomic positioning.

Typing Experience

• Factory-lubed linear switches (Creamy Jade or silent Sea Salt Silent V2) provide smooth keystrokes with different sound profiles, from tactile thock to quiet operation.
• Hot-swappable switch sockets allow experimenting with various 5-pin mechanical switches to match personal preferences.
• South-facing RGB LEDs minimize interference with keycap legends and support dynamic lighting effects.
• Plate-mounted stabilizers are tuned for reduced rattle but are not compatible with screw-in or PCB-mounted stabilizers, limiting modding options.

Connectivity

• Wired USB-C mode offers low latency (2ms) suitable for competitive gaming or latency-sensitive tasks.
• 2.4GHz wireless mode balances responsiveness (5ms latency) and freedom of movement, ideal for general use without cable drag.
• Bluetooth mode supports multiple devices with slightly higher latency (11ms), suitable for casual typing or mobile devices.
• Easy switching between connection modes and paired devices enhances workflow across different platforms.

Trade-offs

• Full-size layout increases desk footprint, which may not suit users needing a compact or portable keyboard.
• Plate-mounted stabilizers limit compatibility with some popular stabilizer mods, which may affect typing feel customization.
• Absence of light diffusers on switches means RGB lighting is less diffused, resulting in sharper but less uniform illumination.
• Keyboard weight and size reduce portability compared to smaller wireless keyboards.
