What makes the MCHOSE Mix 87 different from traditional mechanical keyboards?

The MCHOSE Mix 87 utilizes Hall Effect magnetic switches instead of standard mechanical switches. This allows for ultra-fast response times, precise actuation down to 0.001mm, and a smooth, stable keystroke. Its adaptive dynamic calibration ensures consistent performance, and you can even fine-tune the actuation point for each key to suit your preferences.

Can I customize the lighting effects on this keyboard?

Absolutely! The Mix 87 features north-facing RGB LED lights with about 16 million color options and supports both static and dynamic lighting modes. Through the M HUB software (available as both a web and app driver), you can create custom GIF animations and enjoy music-reactive lighting modes that sync with your favorite songs.

Does the Mix 87 support hot-swappable switches?

Yes, the Mix 87 is hot-swappable, meaning you can easily replace or mix different magnetic switches such as the Apollo and Lightning variants without any soldering. This lets you personalize the feel and responsiveness of your keyboard to match your typing or gaming style.

How does the volume control work?

The keyboard is equipped with a smooth, tactile volume knob. You can rotate it to adjust your system volume in real time, and pressing it will instantly mute your audio. This makes on-the-fly adjustments during gaming or work both quick and intuitive.

What operating systems is the Mix 87 compatible with?

The Mix 87 is designed for wide compatibility and works with major operating systems like Windows, macOS, and Linux. Some advanced features, such as custom lighting effects and GIF animations, are accessible through the M HUB software, which is available for both web and app platforms.

Is the MCHOSE Mix 87 suitable for competitive gaming?

Definitely. With ultra-low latency as low as 0.08ms, an 8,000Hz polling rate, and direct ADC chip connection for critical keys, the Mix 87 is optimized for esports-level performance. The precise actuation and customizable key response give you a competitive edge in fast-paced games.

Can I save my custom settings directly on the keyboard?

Yes, the Mix 87 features onboard memory, allowing you to store your custom key mappings, lighting profiles, and macros right on the keyboard. This means your settings travel with you, even if you plug the keyboard into a different computer.

What type of keycaps are used on the Mix 87?

The keyboard comes with durable, cherry-profile PBT keycaps. They are shine-through, allowing the vibrant RGB lighting to be visible, and are designed for longevity and resistance to wear.

How easy is it to clean the Mix 87?

Thanks to its floating keycap design and low front height, the Mix 87 is very easy to clean. Dust and debris can be quickly removed, helping to keep your keyboard looking sharp and performing well.

What are some of the advanced key functions available?

The Mix 87 supports a variety of pro-level features such as dynamic key travel (DKS), hold/tap (MT), toggle switches (TGL), key macros, SOCD, and RS. These functions allow for advanced customization and can be tailored to your workflow or gaming needs.
