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)

Keyboard is decent for the price. If I didnt collect keyboards, this would be a winner for the average joe. Im pretty picky on my keyboards and am very sound oriented. This keyboard checks pretty much every box of mine. Bluetooth, tkl, sound/brightness adjustment on a wheel, usb-c connected etc. The big one for me though is for the sound of the stabilizers . The stabilizers are extremely loud and make their own very noticeable rattle. Sound that is pretty horrendous, to me at least. The keys themselves, WSAD for example, sound great, but the shift, backspace, spacebar keys are extremely loud and rattly. Im still debating if its worth to keep this keyboard, because, for the price, this is an insanely good deal for what you get. For anyone worried about the sound of the keys, or factor that in as an important thing, be warned, its mediocre at best when it comes to sound. Everything else is pretty much top notch though. Very impressed for the price overall and wouldnt have any trouble recommending this to someone who isnt a keyboard snob like myself.

She loves it.

Ive only had this product for about two weeks now. I bought it for my desk at my dorm for school work. Ive been mainly using the bluetooth to connect to my Macbook Air and the connectivity/responsiveness has been great! The clicking noise is also very satisfying. The only thing I have a problem with is that the colored keycaps writing are not see-through, so the light doesnt shine through. Which is more my fault for not paying attention when purchasing the product. However I still like this product as someone who was just looking for a keyboard (aka not a collector or anything).

This keyboard feels amazing once you swap keycaps. Battery life lasts me days, Bluetooth is perfect. Cannot really complain about this one!

***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 how heavy it is without the bulkyness. The colors are vibrant! little delay when it comes to gaming, kinda loud but i have a noise sepression setting on my mic so it doesnt bug. the space can be kinda squeaky if you type fast. So many color settings! overall great for the price and what you recieve! shipping was quick also. lovely.

My first hot-swappable keyboard! This set came with the keyboard (and it’s corresponding wire/colored keycaps), a keycap puller, a switch puller, and a few extra switches (reds, blue, browns). The switches were really easy to pull up and pop out, and I’ve included a picture of what the board looks like underneath. I got the red switch, but I’m thinking of changing them to something else. The keyboard types great out of the box, and has many different rgb variations. Most of them are color changing, imo it’s a bit too overwhelming to look at. They also have less flashy options, which is what I ended up choosing (the single light option comes in a rainbow of colors). You can adjust the LED brightness OR the volume with the wheel. The wheel was honestly why I got the keeb in the first place! It’s so handy. As for the red switches it came with, Im not really an expert or even a novice, I’ve literally only used brown ones (and found that out prior to purchasing this), but it types pretty nicely, with a nice sound. The backspace key makes a sharper click than the rest of the keys tho, Im not too sure why. It’s the only thing off that I noticed about the keyboard. Other than that, all the red switches have a consistent sound and feel, nothing feels too wobbly, and overall it feels nicely constructed. Although be wary, the port for the USB-C cable is indeed only snug enough for the cable it came with, I tried using my old Vortex cable and it did not go in. If you’re looking for a change of aesthetics, I’d double check the cable you’re buying. One thing is, I’m not sure how to fully program the keyboard as the instructions mostly tell you how to change the RGB, connect to devices, and key functions; but I’m not really big on programming keys anyway. Overall, I’d give this a 9/10! 1 point off for that random clicky key, and the fact that the cable port is tiny. I think I’m going to really enjoy using this, hopefully with some new switches!

This keyboard was exactly as expected! Love the feel and sound of the keys.

Very nice keyboard. Lighting modes are very bright and nice. Had to return it because I missed the number keys but loved it so much and wish I could have kept it. Very nice and heavy weight. Really like the bluetooth feature.

It feels great when typing. Its configurable in every meaningful way. The battery lasts when you arent using it regularly.
