Product Description

The Xinmeng X98 ProV2 is a compact 98% mechanical keyboard designed for users who want a balance between full functionality and desk space savings. It suits typists and hobbyists who value a comfortable, quiet typing experience and want the flexibility to swap switches without soldering. Its versatile connectivity options also make it a good choice for those who switch between multiple devices.

Key Features

  • 99-key 98% layout offers most keys of a full-size board while saving space.
  • Hot-swappable sockets let users easily replace switches to customize feel and sound.
  • Full-key RGB backlighting with side RGB strip supports dynamic lighting and music sync.
  • Large 5000mAh battery provides extended wireless use, lasting over 12 days without backlight.
  • Three connectivity modes: Bluetooth, 2.4GHz wireless, and wired USB, switchable with one key.

Build and Typing Experience

The keyboard uses a leaf spring gasket-mounted design, which cushions keypresses for softer, quieter feedback and faster rebound. Six layers of internal padding further reduce noise and improve typing comfort. OEM height dual-tone PBT keycaps offer durability and a familiar feel. The included Peach V3 silent linear switches deliver smooth, quiet keystrokes, suitable for office or home use.

Connectivity

The X98 ProV2 supports three connection types, allowing seamless switching between devices. Bluetooth is useful for mobile or casual use, 2.4GHz wireless offers low-latency performance, and wired USB ensures stable connection for gaming or heavy typing sessions. Switching modes is done with a dedicated key, simplifying multi-device workflows.

Trade-offs

  • The compact 98% layout omits a dedicated number pad, which may be less ideal for users needing extensive numeric input.
  • Battery life with RGB lighting active is limited to about 5 hours, requiring more frequent charging if lighting is used extensively.
  • Switches included are linear and silent, which may not suit users preferring tactile or clicky feedback.
