The series offers compact to near-full-size layouts, making it suitable for both space-conscious users and those wanting more keys without a full desktop footprint.

Full-key RGB backlighting with 22 effects enhances visibility and customization.

Full-key rollover ensures all simultaneous key presses register without conflict, useful for fast typing or gaming.

Build Quality

High-quality PBT keycaps resist oil and wear, maintaining texture and appearance over time.
Silicone-padded internal structure reduces noise and adds stability during typing.

Connectivity

Supports three modes: wired USB Type-C, 2.4GHz wireless, and Bluetooth, offering flexibility for different devices and scenarios.
Compatible with Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS without additional drivers.
Large 3000mAh battery supports up to 14 hours with backlight on and up to 350 hours with backlight off in Bluetooth mode, suitable for extended wireless use.

Trade-offs

Switch options are limited to TTC V2 variants, which may not suit users seeking other switch brands or types.
