South-facing per key RGB lighting supports better compatibility with certain keycap profiles and reduces interference with larger stabilizers.

Build Quality

ABS plastic case keeps the keyboard lightweight but may feel less durable or premium compared to metal or thicker plastic cases.
Gasket mounting, which uses a flexible foam layer between the plate and case, offers a softer typing feel by reducing vibrations.
Polycarbonate plate adds some flex, contributing to a quieter and more cushioned typing experience.
Foams in the case, plate, and PCB help dampen sound and reduce hollow resonance.
Plate-mounted stabilizers are standard but may not provide the tightest stabilizer feel compared to PCB-mounted options.

Wired mode ensures stable, low-latency input for tasks requiring precision.
Wireless 2.4 GHz mode offers a reliable connection with minimal delay, suitable for general use without cables.
Bluetooth 5.0 enables easy pairing with multiple devices and supports mobile or laptop use where wireless convenience is preferred.

Compatible with Windows and Mac operating systems, covering most user environments.

Trade-offs

ABS plastic case may not offer the same durability or premium feel as metal alternatives.
