QwertyKeys has come a long way in a relatively short time – back in 2022, they released their first board, the QK65, officially launching the brand, and have continued to make customizable mechanical keyboards accessible to more and more people, regardless of budget. Now, almost two years later, they’re introducing a new generation of their milestone project – the QK65v2!
Seeing as how the original QK65 had a very safe and minimalist design, the QK65v2 incorporates the LCD screen and badge/bezel customization featured on the QK100, letting it stand out and giving it more of its own identity. Other changes include moving the boards cosmetic LED strip to the top left corner of the board, and an accent that exposes the bottom case on the front side of the board, rather than the back. Internally, the board has seen some revisions, with both top and gasket mounting supported for the build process, and featuring the positively received magnetic PCB connectors, obviating the need for internal cable management. Additionally, a clip-in mechanism has been incorporated in the case design, allowing the QK65v2 to be disassembled in a matter of seconds simply by popping off its feet and releasing the clips.
Extras for the Neo 65 include spare plates and PCBs, badges, LEDs, daughterboards, and more!

The RE65 R2 Keyboard from Nuxros Design takes inspiration from spacefaring ships, with a hint of the Linworks Dolinger in its DNA, involving beautifully curved sides and an RGB lightbar at the front acting like a rocket booster blasting this beautiful board into the top of your favourites! Ran first in Vietnam last year, the RE65 received high acclaim about the typing feel and sound, and so they want to help introduce the board to more customers worldwide!
While the prevalence of keyboard foam is high in the community at this date, Nuxros wanted to ensure the design and performance could stand on its own merits without any foam and would help provide a more true acoustic to each switch and plate material chosen.

Designed by streamline, the saevus Cor was created following a 6-month plunge into the foam rabbit hole; they felt that, while the foamed boards sounded great, the uniformity between their sound detracted from the personality of each. Thus, the saevus Cor was created: a plateless 65% XT keyboard that aims to produce a unique sound without the need for case foam. Beyond the gentle half-heart-shaped slopes of the case’s profile, considerations for comfort are present within the saevus Cor‘s design, as it features a low 6.5° typing angle and a cherry lip on the case front – providing a more comfortable typing experience when used without a wrist rest.
The saevus Cor has an aluminum case, available in 8 colours across two finishes – light blue, vibrant red, deep navy, lilac, rose gold, silver, and electrophoresed black or white. The board’s 65% layout is bookended by split XT macro columns, lending it a symmetrical appearance and a more even weight distribution, as well as a place to put artisan caps and helpful macros. Internally, the saevus Cor uses a brass weight, with a copper badge sporting a simple but attractive icon adorning the bottom. The board is meant to be assembled platelessly with its solderable PCB, but a polycarbonate plate is nonetheless included for hotswap users, as well as those who simply prefer to use one.

Shark67 was designed as an entry point to this exciting, but often expensive hobby – packing sought-after features like tri-mode connectivity, VIA compatibility, and RGB backlighting into an all-CNC aluminum case. The board is available in seven bright colours across a handful of anodized and coated finished, and was designed with a sleek, minimal style – additionally featuring your choice of an engraving or a PVD badge on its underside!
Internally, Shark67 uses a silicone gasket-mount structure, and includes a flex cut hotswap PCB with tri-mode connectivity and RGB, as well as a flex cut polycarb plate. PCBs without flex cuts and a variety of plates are available for separate purchase!

SP-111 R2 is the brainchild of BlindAssassin111, who has spent the past few years tweaking and modifying the original SP-111’s design, then iterating on these changes until satisfied. These changes include (but are not limited to): a lower profile due to a reduction in the height of both the case and the feet, added microcontrollers on both PCBs, and RGB status indicators as well as a polycarb light pipe located on the left side of the board.
So, why a split southpaw layout? Considerations for comfort and productivity are at the core of this decision – split boards can be arranged in whatever formation the user desires, and the southpaw layout allows easy access to the numpad while simultaneously using a mouse, which is very useful for data entry jobs as well as other applications such as CAD. Furthermore, the right half of the board’s uses 1800-style arrows and a vertical nav cluster, giving the SP-111 R2 the utility of a full-size board while fitting into a smaller form factor.
