RGB SMD lighting with 16.8 million color options provides customizable backlighting effects.

Includes a gasket mount system, which uses a soft O-ring to reduce typing noise and improve typing comfort by cushioning keypresses.

Connectivity

The keyboard supports wired USB-C connection and Bluetooth wireless mode. Bluetooth allows pairing with up to three devices, making it suitable for users who switch between computers, tablets, or phones. Wired mode is available for low-latency or charging needs. Specific wireless performance details are unknown.

Build and Typing Experience
