  • Switches: Akko Astrolink Magnetic, Rapid Trigger with 0.005 mm precision, swappable

Description

Fast response and flexible tuning

The magnetic switch sensor tracks the key position constantly, so Rapid Trigger can release the key the moment your finger lifts. Snap Key prioritises the last direction key, TGL turns a key into a toggle, and Mod-Tap gives a key two roles: tap and hold. The case is machined aluminium with a gasket mount. Per-key ARGB lighting refreshes at 500 Hz, and keycap and switch pullers are included.

Who this gaming keyboard is for

Players of fast competitive games who want to tune the sensitivity of every key themselves; gamers who prefer a small 65% board and more room for the mouse; and users who switch between wireless and wired use and value a large 10000 mAh battery. Settings are handled in the Akko web and cloud driver.

Questions & answers

Does the keyboard have Estonian letters?

No. The layout is US English QWERTY (ANSI) and Estonian letters are not printed on the keys. Add them in your operating system's keyboard layout settings.

How does this version differ from the other MOD68 HE?

In the switches: this one has Akko Astrolink Magnetic. The rest of the manufacturer data, including 8000 Hz, the 10000 mAh battery and 68 keys, is the same.

How does the keyboard connect?

In three ways: through the 2.4 GHz receiver, over Bluetooth 5.0 and with a USB-C cable, which also charges the battery. The manufacturer does not specify how many Bluetooth devices it remembers.
