BOYI TK96 90% RGB Hot Swappable Triple Mode Keyboard,2.4Ghz/BT 5.0/Wired Keyboard N-Key Rollover Compact Gateron Yellow Switch Mechanical Gaming Keyboard(Zoological&Botanical Gardens XDA Keycaps)

Looks absolutely stunning in person. The keyboard has such a nice sound to it. It came packaged nicely, and the product itself feels very solid & high quality. It comes with extra key caps, a keycap puller, and some yellow switches. The instruction manual is great and so if the RGB, but I wish it could light up in a solid color and the RGB clashes with the keyboard aesthetic! Overall, I really like it.

Ive never had a keyboard like this before mine have all been higher-end ones nit this one is laid out as I have never seen before. It arrived just fine without any defects that I could see. On getting it out you get the keyboard, a c charging cable (I love that it is USB C charging), four extra switches, two keycap pullers, and a dongle. I really like how they attached the dongle to the USB cord that was a neat trick. To say this is quiet is an understatement I could be typing next to my wife sleeping and she would never know. The one thing that threw me for a loop is that it is missing the end key which is strange as I use that pretty frequently but have found ways around it. Other than that they do jam all the keys together Im used to the bridge above the arrow keys but this does not have that. it does have some neat backlights too but I wish they had made the letter clear as that would have made it more noticeable. All in all, I do like this keyboard (Im using it to write this review, it just takes a bit of getting used to.

Feels like good build quality but the Bluetooth is so slow its almost unusable

First thing I like to do when I get a new keyboard is test all the keys. This keyboard showed why I should keep doing that. The right enter key didnt work. Thankfully, this did come with a switch puller, so I pulled the switch and found a bent terminal. Yep, thatll do it. Also thankfully, this came with spare switches, so I popped one in and now it works. Thats great and all, but I shouldnt have to replace a switch 30 seconds after taking it out of the box. Someone in QC should have caught that. I can probably salvage that switch, but getting that straight is going to be...fun. The keyboard itself is fine. The fact that the power indicator is an LED under an opaque cap is an odd decision. They could have put an LED anywhere else. The included keycaps are completely opaque, so the backlight is kind of pointless. Well, you can always swap the keycaps. RGB just looks weird with the matcha caps anyway. The keyboard just sits flat. Theres nothing to prop it up. It also comes with no wrist support, so youll want to get your own. The charging cable also holds the wireless transmitter, so thats nifty. You can use it wired with that cable too. I plugged the USB-A end into my computer and it instantly worked with windows 11. Broken parts aside, the build quality is pretty good. There certainly are better built keyboards out there, but they are also more expensive. This keyboard would definitely be rated higher if I didnt need to repair it immediately.

OMG I finally found my perfect keyboard. I have gone through multiple keyboards in my quest to find one that feels solid, types well, and is satisfying to use. This checks all the boxes and then some. I absolutely love the feel of the keys, the satisfying click as you type, and the backlight is an added bonus. This keyboard is hefty and weighs in at just a tad over 2 pounds. Just to note in case anyone was wondering, if the battery is getting low the left CTRL button will illuminate and blink a white color instead of the normal lighting pattern. Its a quality keyboard that feels as though its made to last and provide as much enjoyment as one can get out of typing on a keyboard. And yes, I did type this review using the keyboard. :) Definitely recommend.

I am very happy with this board! I think it would be a great starting point for people that are getting started in the mechanical keyboard realm. Ill start with the keycaps. They are super smooth, I love the rounded edges. I only wish that the letters were translucent, I work late into the evenings and need to turn a light on to see the keys even with the RGB. But that is not a fault of the caps, simply my preference. The stock switches were surprisingly decent! I got the linear set and had the intention of swapping them out with Durock switches but I ended up keeping the stock switches in my F row and 10 key pad. There is significant spring ping on the stocks, but after some lube they sound lovely. I also filmed all of the switches. There was some key rattling but the films completely eliminated that. Now for the base, I didnt read that there was a foam layer so I had initially intended on doing a foam mod, and I still did but it was probably unnecessary. Taking the base apart was mildly difficult. It took some effort to get all of the pieces back in and aligned nicely. If you arent intending on doing any modifications below switch level, dont stress it. But if you plan on modding the base, mentally prepare for a little puzzle. I struggled to keep the usb-c aligned with the hole in the frame. Eventually I just plugged the usb-c in to hold it in place to screw it back together. Be aware that there are not risers on the bottom to prop it up, I missed that bit in the pictures but all in all, for this price I think its an awesome budget mechanical keyboard. I love the condensed setup without the loss of my precious 10-key.

I originally purchased this keyboard for a friend but I ended up keeping it for myself! Very nice sound when pressing the keys; I got the yellow switches, not too loud but not too soft. My old keyboard had been a low profile Corsair keyboard with cherry switches but it took up half of my desk! Compared to the size of my old keyboard this one gives you lots of space on your desk without sacrificing comfort. I definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking for a cute, comfortable, quiet, and compact keyboard!

The BOYI TK96 90% RGB Hot Swappable Triple Mode Keyboard,2.4Ghz/Bluetooth 5.0/Wired Keyboard N-Key Rollover Custom Compact Gateron Yellow Switch Mechanical Gaming Keyboard(Mars Green OEM Keycap: This is a really nice prebuilt mechanical keyboard. Gateron are among some of my favorite switches and these yellows are very nice linier switches. Also the keycaps feel, sound and look great as well. I prefer shine through caps as I work allot at night, so I will probably change these out for some shine throughs. However these are super nice and feel, sound and look awesome. There is no deck flex and all feels very well made and solid. There is a very, very slight ping at the bottom of the stroke, but otherwise the whole thing feels and sounds great. This leaves a little something for the keyboard moders to do. To be clear this is not really detectable on a solid surface. Overall the sound is very good. The chaise is all ABS on the outside, with a metal plate on the inside. Switches are hot swappable, and the keyboard comes with a keycap and switch puller, as well as 4 extra switches for when you wear out the W,S,A,D. This is a very compelling keyboard for the money, and the software driver is very nice and gives you control over lighting and key sensitivity. You can also control the lighting on the keyboard itself. All the normal lighting modes are present, however even at the slowest speed they move pretty fast. The LEDs are very bright, with very saturated colors and other than the quick speeds they look great. The keyboard base lays flat with no feet for angles. Some will love this, specially those who dont love wrist wrests. For others this will sit a bit low in the back, if you are used to a tall angle. I feel like the base sits at a decent height, however I do prefer a bit more angle, or at least Ive gotten used to more of an angle, but this feels good. Overall I feel like this is a great prebuilt for the money. Great switches, great key caps, a solid deck, and at least some of the normal moding improvements are already done for you. This is a great place to start if you dont want to build from scratch. This comes great right out of the box, and gives you plenty of room to personalize, with different caps and switches should you want. Overall I very much like this prebuilt mechanical keyboard for the money. Well done BOYI, great keyboard.

if youre just breaking into the world of custom keyboards, this is a mostly excellent choice. At this price, its really hard to find anything better. The PCB is compatible with 3 and 5 pin switches, and while the software is fully featured, There are a lot of issues with it. It is very slow to respond and does not show you what the System Functions are, it just tells you that you cant modify them. And while the process is very slow, you can reprogram all of your keys. So if you want to set the keyboard to function as a macro board or with Colemak/Devorak, you can do that! Just be patient... the software has to update the firmware after EVERY SINGLE CHANGE. It would be great if you could queue up several changes and then commit them all at once, like with ZMK firmware, but this isnt a deal breaker. That said, its also not intuitive. If you want the J key to be an N key (as in the Colemak layout), you click on the J key in the software and are presented with a menu that wants you lick Ctrl, Alt, Shift, or Win and then type a single activation key. Not intuitive, but the solution is to just NOT check a modifier key. You can also set and record macros, but you have to navigate to the Macro tab and record the macro first. Not a big deal, but coming from Razer, Logitech, and SteelSeries keyboards that have far more intuitive setups, this was a bit jarring. The macro editor itself isnt terrible, and I appreciate that you can mix mouse and keyboard button presses, just know you cannot mass-edit the delays between key presses after youve recorded, so make sure you set your delay time before if you want a baseline. Again: Dont lose the cheat sheet that the board comes with or you wont know what the functions are. My baby got a hold of it and destroyed it, so now I cant figure out how to turn on the backlights (once theyre off, the software will not turn them on). While there are manuals available on their website in the Download section, none of them are for this keyboard. The switches themselves are a bit spongy for my personal taste with too much travel, but that is easily remedied with a quick switch replacement. The board is shockingly heavy which makes for a pleasant typing experience with a satisfying sound. This would be a home run 5-star product if the software were more responsive, if the built-in functions were visible within the software, and if there were a downloadable manual available.

This keyboard is a double plus. It has a great action and very easy on the eyes. Also, it can be used Bluetooth or wired, which is great when I have a Bluetooth problem. This does happen. It is great to use. I am going to get another one!
