The QK65 R2 shares much of its predecessors design, providing great value without sacrificing aesthetic or acoustic quality, and features a CNC-machined aluminum top case with anodized, coated, or electrophoretic finish, a PVD-coated stamped steel plate, a die-cast aluminum bottom case, and a large molded silicone dampener that comfortably fills the space between.

This set will be manufactured after the GB period. If you join this GB, you’ll receive the keyboard after production is completed in approximately Q4 2022. Please do not add in-stock items, or items from other group buys to this order. All in-stock items added to orders will be cancelled from that order and refunded.

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!
While the QK65v2’s iterated design has seen appreciation, QwertyKeys understands the additional external features offered in the v2 may not appeal to everyone, minimalists especially. QwertyKeys has made sure that these voices are heard, and thus have decided to introduce a classic version of the QK65v2 for those who prefer simplicity. By omitting the mini screen and the LED strip, the QK65v2 Classic aligns more closely with the original QK65’s design language. We hope this variant can meet the taste of those who prefer a cleaner look in their peripherals. 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. And finally, the addition of a Hall Effect PCB and accompanying Neo Lavender HE switches! Hall effect switches detect the strength and direction of a magnetic field generated by a permanent magnet or electromagnet, allowing for a digital (on/off) or analog (continuous) signal.
Plates are available in the usual five materials – Aluminum (alu-only for HE), CF, FR4, PC, and POM – and the QK65v2 features a tri-mode PCB with your choice of an ANSI or ISO layout!

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.

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!
