Product Description

The MK Point65 is a 65% compact mechanical keyboard designed for users who want a solid, customizable typing experience with a moderate footprint. It suits hobbyists and enthusiasts who prefer aluminum construction and flexible mounting options. The keyboard supports both per-key RGB and multi-layout PCBs, making it adaptable for different lighting preferences and key configurations. It does not include switches, stabilizers, or keycaps, so it is best for users who want to build or customize their own setup.

Key Features

  • Supports top mount and rubber gasket mount, allowing users to choose between a firmer or softer typing feel.
  • Includes multiple gasket options (30A, 50A, 70A) to adjust typing acoustics and cushioning.
  • VIA/VIAL compatible PCB with preloaded VIA firmware enables easy key remapping and macro programming without additional software.
  • Comes with three sets of press-in feet in different colors, allowing height and angle adjustments without adhesive.
  • Includes a clear coated brass weight that adds stability and reduces keyboard movement during use.

Build Quality

  • Constructed from 6063 aluminum, providing a durable and rigid frame.
  • Features a color-matched aluminum plate that enhances structural integrity and key stability.
  • Includes case foam, plate foam, and PE film to help reduce noise and improve typing acoustics.
  • Comes with a screwdriver and top mount screws for easy assembly and maintenance.

Typing Experience

  • The 6-degree typing angle and 22.4mm effective key height support a comfortable hand position for extended typing sessions.
  • Mounting options and gasket choices let users tailor the keyboard’s sound and feel, from firmer to softer keypresses.
  • Cherry lip PCB mount stabilizers are supported but must be purchased separately, allowing users to select stabilizers that suit their preferences.

Compatibility and Customization

  • Available with either per-key RGB or multi-layout PCBs to match lighting and layout preferences.
  • Compatible with VIA and VIAL software for flexible key remapping and macro setup.
  • Supports multiple 65% layouts, making it adaptable to different key arrangements.

Trade-offs

  • Does not include switches, stabilizers, or keycaps, requiring additional purchases and assembly.
  • No wireless connectivity options, limiting use to wired setups only.
  • Limited to 65% size, which may not suit users needing dedicated function rows or numpads.
