EPOMAKER K870T Hot Swappable 87 Keys Bluetooth Wired/Wireless Mechanical Keyboard with RGB Backlit, Type C Cable, 2000mAh Battery, Wheel Button Control for Game/Office (Hotswap Red Switch, White)

Got this over the weekend and love it so far!! Bluetooth works great for my Macbook. I am not be too great at reading through instructions, so it did take me a while to figure out how to setup the pairing in the mini manual they provide. Just in case this might help for others, Ill leave it here. These are primarily for standard/office use functions and might not be applicable for gaming functions. Bluetooth Paring for Mac 1. Turn switch to ON position on back 2. Press Bluetooth Mode button on keyboard to ON (blue light should turn on) 3. Press FN + Q keys (Q=1st device; When you want to connect other devices, you can use W (2nd device) or E (3rd device)) 4. Press FN + P keys for 3 seconds to enter pairing mode 5. On your Mac, open bluetooth settings and connect. I also went to my System Preferences > Keyboard > Setup Bluetooth Keyboard to make sure it was recognized. Then, viola! Youre connected. Other adjustments: Using FN keys: Under System Preferences > Keyboard > Unclick Use F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys. When its unclicked I can use most of the functions printed on the keys (from F3 to F12). When its clicked, the F keys do not work for me, even when I also press the Fn key. Modifier keys: Under System Preferences > Keyboard > select Modifier Keys... button > In Select Keyboard dropdown, select the AJAZZ keyboard > I adjusted my keys as listed below. I tend to use a lot of the apple command key shortcuts. This configuration works best for me. Caps Lock Key: Caps Lock Control Key: Command Option Key: No action Command Key: Option FN Key: FN function ---- Other thing I want to mention is that I definitely recommend a keyboard wrist rest pad for this keyboard. Most mechanical keyboards tend to be high, so this one is no exception.

I really loved this keyboard at first! The volume wheel is awesome and the bluetooth functionality is super convenient for switching between my work laptop and then my wired pc setup. HOWEVER, as of like the past month or so, some of my most used keys have stopped working - meaning sometimes i have to press the key more than once for them to actually register. This is pretty disappointing considering I’ve only had it for 11 months. The price was great for the product while it worked, but now I feel like I should’ve just spent the money for a higher end board :(

Amazing for the price. I have also used its Bluetooth option and it very easy to connect with the computer. The light is still bright after 8 months and the keys are easy to take off using the pliers they gave us. Overall amazing product!

Overall clickyness of the keys are good, typing is enjoyable. I liked the lighting even though I didnt buy it for its lights. Cost is great. However after few weeks A key stopped functioning properly %20 of the time it was missing the press. I took the keycap off, cleaned it and it worked fine for a while. The keyboard is kept very clean, but the issue kept on coming back. I contacted the Epomaker and they just asked me to reboot the keyboard (Fn + Ps for my keyboard but they actually told me its Fn + |, which is wrong). Rebooting combined with playing with the switch a bit helped, but the issue is back. So there seems to be a problem with the switch, which is making life hard while typing long documents. If the producer replaces the keyboard and the new one has no issues, Ill update the review.

***Edited*** TLDR: Found a board that fixes all my gripes with this one for very little more out of pocket money. I would only keep this keyboard now to gift to someone, or if i were a super enthusiast who wants a good looking keeb for the collection. Best on sale. After just a few days, Ive lowered my score. The Epomaker Cidoo ABM084 is basically this keyboard, except solves every real gripe I had with this board (BT 5.0 vs 3.0, 2.4ghz, foam) while swapping out the scroll wheel for a knob (Knobs are in!), at the small cost of Print Screen, Scroll Lock, and Pause (honestly the only of which I ever use is print screen for screen shots, and am sure can remap one of the media buttons to that on the ABM084). To be honest however I think I actually like the aesthetics of the Ajazz better. I do like this keyboard, still a hell of a lot more than GMMK in the price range, but this one honestly should be cheaper now. Maybe if it were the only one on the market, but for what this one is missing Id only pay half the price. On sale this board would absolutely be worth it especially to an enthusiast who enjoys opening things up and modding them. **End Edit** For me it was between this board and a GMMK, this board although being TKL (Which took me a while to accept and give it a shot) won out. The GMMK did have a superior case to this as far as materials go, however gave me a very Macintosh/apple feel that seemed a bit off putting. the GMMK also didnt have a choice of switches, which is nice. Ive already replaced the switches I got with Gamakey Pheonix switches, because I dont want my keyboard to stand out in discord or talk louder than I do. Theyre super nice but this isnt a review of those switches. However, I will say with these switches keypresses are quieter than the razer membrane keyboard Im replacing - except the stabilizers - theyre still pretty loud but its not overwhelming or to obnoxious. Pros and cons: Pros: bluetooth - although not a mandatory feature for me, its very useful to be able to use the board on a phone, tablet, or even laptop if I want to and I personally dont notice any lag. Hotswappable - Not the best hotswap board only 3 pin and north facing LEDs BUT it is hotswap. Volume scroll wheel - a nice touch - not necessary at all but very nice to have, and doubles as a dial to turn up or down the led brightness, very nice. Detachable USB cable - Always nice - although the way its recessed I see how people can have trouble with it especially using a cable that didnt come with the keyboard. Choice of switches - limited choices but any choice is better than none. Cons: cheaper plastic case, already got a crack where the screw holds in the top bezel directly underneath the f1 and f2 keys due to it being to thin. No usb hub - would be nice to be able to plug the mouse or even a pair of headphones into the back or side of the keyboard, not a huge deal though and this can likely be easily added in later with a custom case and a usb hub pcb. No padding between the pcb and keyboard plate - This likely not only affects the acoustics but also not having that padding means light from the leds can bleed into the channels for other switches, adding a foam layer here would probably help the light pop a bit more and keep it isolated in the channels for the individual switches. Also no padding underneath pcb. Theres no padding at all. Case, PCB, plate, top bezel, thats all youre getting. no seperate 2.4ghz - not a big deal for me at all though it may affect someone out there. Note the PCB _does_ appear to have an area for a radio chip for the 2.4ghz stuff, but doesnt include the radio chip or the caps/resistors/et al for it, but as the traces are on the board it means it may be possible to hack one on, but honestly only should be done for fun and or education because its likely you can buy a pcb with both bluetooth and 2.4ghz for $20 or so from china thats identical to this board in every way except has the extra radio on it already. The software isnt world class, and its often hard to get set the leds to white and they seem to want to glow a pinkish color when set to white. That its not compatible with OpenRGB or VIA is a con for me - which may not be to hard to solve with wireshark and usbpcap but thats not been done yet so for now Im using the Rakk Lam-Ang PRO software. Price: yeah theyre cool but seriously no keyboard should cost near $100 or over and still not have basic QOL features - like foam padding. Conclusion Would I buy it again? Probably. For the custom keyboard market it _seems_ to be an okay value. (of course it can be far better value ordering straight from aliexpress with different branding.. whos got the time or patience for that though?!) It beat out the GMMK Silver in my personal preference category due to functionality and aesthetics . Now if it had come with foam padding, and had the option for silent switches right out of the gate, it would be hands down a no brainer best bang for the buck. However, at its price point, the only thing it _really_ has mechanically over the $30 red dragon that has a hotswap board is: the bluetooth, volume knob, and some choice of switches..

I love that keyboard. I got it with a discount so good. quality is good- black switch perfect huano switcxhes

At its core, all of the keyboard shortcuts to change RGB and 3 savable bluetooth connections is GREAT. Its lightweight and easy to take for work without weighing your bag down. Def needs more cushion between and underneath the PCB/Plate. It has a very clacky sound even with Holy Panda Keys (bought separetly) due to the inner build. But nothing a little customization could fix.

Unbelievably fast delivery to Israel. 84 hours from submitting the order to receiving the parcel from the delivery guy. It cant be true in Israel. But it is. They sent it by DHL from their storehouse in Germany. The keyboard is fantastic. Really. I am new to the mechanical keyboards world, this is my only second keeb. But thats how I feel now, after just a few hours of using it. May be later on I will find some problems, but at the moment this keeb seems to be perfect. It has Red Noname(?)/Hauno(?) switches on board, they give a great feel and hear combination. I have a tester with MX Cherry switches, I dont feel or hear any difference between MX Reds on the tester and those on my keeb. RGB lightening - amazing. Keycaps - great feeling, the legends are highlighted perfectly. I did not replace the original white keycaps to the colored ones which are included in the package. The legends on the colored keycaps are not highlighted though they look fancy. Bluetooth - connected easily to the laptop and to the Android phone. Bonus - super convenient buttons and roller controller just above the arrow keys. Price - fantastic. Hope I will be not change my mind after a few weeks of months of working with this keyboard. Edit: one month and counting. Still love this keyboard. I am very happy that I bought a bluetooth model. I often disconnect the keyboard from my main computer and take it with me when I work on the notebook in other rooms. So convenient.

The on/ off button is poorly made. Other than that, great keyboard for the price!

I looked at several keyboard in the 100-200 range, this keyboard is a lot for the money. Bluetooth, ten keyless, USB type C, hot swap switches and of course RGB. I have bought many keyboards in the past, dont get me wrong this isnt a Corvette but its a Camaro that can be better than the sum of its parts. I intend on upgrading the stock switches and key caps, in the end it will perform better than the wired expensive keyboard I have. In stock form it is already better than I expected.
