KN85 Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, 75% Layout with RGB Backlit, Custom Hot Swappable, Creamy Sound, Bluetooth/2.4GHz/USB-C Compatible with Windows/Mac/PC (Textured Black,Linear Switch)

I kept seeing this keyboard everywhere — the one that kept getting away. I wasn’t sure about the build quality at first. Months ago, I saw a great review from Hipoyotec, but still didn’t pull the trigger. Eventually my keyboard addiction got the best of me, and I’m glad it did. This thing is thocky, creamy, sturdy, and feels like real quality when you’re using it. I love it. 100% worth the price. The layout on the right side is perfect, it works great with Linux, and it just looks slick. I do wish they included a bit more in the box — maybe extra caps or switches — but that’s just the spoiled keyboard addict in me talking. I’ve lost count of how many keyboards I own at this point. I’ll try anything: cheap, midrange, “premium.” I rarely spend over $150, and honestly, I usually stay under $90. I love finding hidden gems like this one. Half the fun of this hobby is taking something mediocre and making it great. A while back I bought a $7 keyboard off Amazon, swapped the switches, lubed it, threw on new caps, and took it traveling — it ended up becoming one of my favorites. Aluminum boards are gorgeous, sure, but they can be overrated. Leobog makes some fantastic ones too. I’ve got boxes of switches and caps I haven’t even opened yet. I’ve stopped counting. Probably over fifty by now. And don’t even get me started on HE switches — that’s another rabbit hole entirely. Anyway, back on track: this Kisnt keyboard is easily in my top ten, maybe even top five. Every Wednesday I rotate keyboards — swap, tune, re-evaluate — but this one doesn’t need a thing. It sounds and feels perfect right out of the box. Thanks, Kisnt. You nailed it.

Great keyboard with a nice solid feel. Sounds great and has a nice smooth "thocky" sound. I was surprised how nice the switches were from the start. Get this keyboard if you aren't looking to customize your keyboard. This one is a great setup from the start. I typically work with it wired, so I can't comment on the bluetooth connectivity, but it's plenty responsive while plugged in. No lag from what I can tell. It is made of plastic, but feels solid. The layers of silicone give it a heavier feel than I expected, making the keyboard feel far more premium for its affordability. If you're looking for something very solid, with a great feel and sound without emptying your wallet, I'd buy this keyboard without hesitation. Highly recommended.

For the price this guy is awesome, I would definitely recommend! Right out of the box I love the look, switches feel smooth and sound of this keyboard is nice and thocky. I bought comparable keyboards in the same price range but this one had the keys I was looking for like the pgup/pgdn, dedicated arrow keys and the ability for customization with the removeable switches. This keyboard almost made me regret my $100 keyboard purchase but its missing the volume knob so yah. I typically use the keyboard in Bluetooth mode and I don't notice any delay/lag but I don't use it for any type of competitive gaming. One thing I noticed is that the battery life on this is a bit low as it seems I have to charge it often in the middle of my gaming session so like 3/4 hours fully charged. But I also use that as a reminder for me to go and touch grass.

exactly as described, insane quality for the price, this is a great investment if you are considering buying this. keys sound perfect, and it comes with a key cap remover in case you want to change the caps. over 20 rgb color options are included, there are 2 heights to the stand, usb, bluetooth and 2.4gig connection options, there is a charging indicator and places to hide your wires under the keyboard. overall great product.

I'm a keyboard nerd. I have mechanical keyboards for everything, even my iPad (actually the iPad is why I got this keyboard). This Kisnt keyboard works and sounds great right out of the box. First of all, I love the price. I love the gentle 'thocky' keyboard sound and 'creamy' smooth linear switches. Even while the outside case is entirely plastic, it has good solid weight to it and rubber feet to keep it stable. There's a solid amount of sound absorbing material, but the typing feel of the keyboard is solid (no flex). To top it all off, the switches are replaceable. Simply amazing at this price. I found it odd though that they designed it with bottom-mounted RGB lights (which itself is great), but put opaque keycaps and switches on it. The RGB still looks good as accent lighting I guess, and is nice and bright (with different brightness settings). What I really wanted though was to be able to read the keys in the dark. In the end, I replaced all the switches and keycaps so they would shine through. I could've kept the factory switches and used a set of caps with lettering on the bottom side of the keys, but I couldn't find a compatible set of caps that went with retro beige color scheme. Connectivity is great with all my devices. I have the 2.4g dongle connected to my Lenovo ThinkPad, and use the BT for my iPad. USB wired works as you'd expect too. It has a long, detachable USB-C cable and seemingly robust USB-C connector. In terms of gaming, the software describes the response times for different connection methods. Off the top of my head, I think it said USB is 2-3ms, 2.4g is 8-9ms and bluetooth is like 25ms. It feels very responsive to me in any scenario - I notice no input issues even on BT. I'm not a 'pro gamer' though by any means. The battery life is good solid that I can game wirelessly all day on my laptop with the 2.4g dongle and it's still got plenty of charge left over, even with the RGB on (at 25% brightness, which is plenty bright believe it or not). By default the keyboard goes to sleep after 5 min of inactivity. With the software you can change the sleep timer, down to 1 min, or up to 30 min. You can control the lighting patterns using the FN key and the page up/down keys. For more functionality you have to install their software, which was a bit hard to find, and didn't come with any kind of signing authentication, so it tripped Windows' "this might harm your computer" warning. With the software though you can set a bunch more lighting effects, change the colors, brightness, etc. Some of the features of the software are a bit glitchy, but it works well enough. You can also see the battery level, and it does all of this while connected through the cable, or 2.4g dongle. (I haven't tested BT, but I presume it doesn't work that way). I like that I can switch between Mac and PC keyboard layout settings, and they map and function accurately. You can even change it on the fly without any problems. In Mac mode, my iPad and MacBook pro works 100% as it would if it were an Apple keyboard.

It is unbelievable you can buy such a good mechanical keyboard for such a reasonable price. I am NOT a mechanical keyboard expert but I’ve used many mechanical keyboards when they used to be standard with servers, workstations and even IBM office/personal computers. I have a couple of inexpensive (<$60) mechanical keyboards and used other higher-quality mechanical keyboards, which makes me an Internet expert ;). All kidding aside, this is the best mechanical keyboard I have owned and seems on-par with more expensive mechanical keyboards. It has great tactile feel and the sound these mechanical switches make depresses is pleasing. The quality, heft, and double-shot keys make it a real bargain but they also included a couple of spare switches and a key cap puller. While I have only ever spent $60 on a mechanical keyboard in the past but this keyboard is significantly better in every way. It’s a joy to use and the tactile experience and sound while typing is top-notch. I couldn’t imagine a better keyboard for <$100. It represent a true Internet bargain (which are increasingly difficult to find these days). Hats off to the supplier/manufacturer for keeping the prices and quality where they were before everyone and their sister found out your secret.

Kisnt KN85 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is super awesome. Works great with my IPad Pro 13” M5 tablet. A must have for the productive minimalist. The color is amazing and the quick key pops are music to my ears. The build quality exceeded my expectations. The keyboard stability was unmatched by my old gaming keyboard. The price point does the quality of this Mechanical masterpiece no justice. But thanks. Very happy with both.

I love typing on this keyboard. This may be the best feel of a keyboard I have had in my life - very smooth. It is great quality and solid in weight. I do a lot of typing and this gives me a better typing experience than the common modern flat keyboards. I really love the fact that it has 3 ways to connect - bluetooth, usb wired, or usb 2.4 - making it usable for a variety of devices. This was the best priced keyboard I could find for it's features. It is compact enough for me to travel with this. The only thing is I wish the keyboard did not make this noise. It's ok when I'm by myself, but it may bother others if I'm on an airplane or something like that. I did find a couple of unique nuances with the keyboard on different devices. For one online app when connected via Bluetooth, I needed to hit the delete key and shift at the same time in order to delete. I found that I needed to close the app and open it again with the keyboard already connected to Bluetooth to get the keyboard to engage correctly across the board.
