Full-key hot-swappable sockets enable easy switch replacement or customization without soldering.
RGB backlighting includes customizable effects and musical rhythm sync for visual feedback during use.

Build Quality

Gasket-mounted structure suspends the PCB with silicone padding to reduce cavity resonance, resulting in quieter typing.
Durable PBT keycaps with MDA/KOP profile provide a consistent feel and resistance to shine over time.

Typing Experience

Equipped with Kailh Box Cream Pro POM switches, offering smooth linear feedback with a longer travel distance than typical linear switches.
