Review: Very good - It’s a good keyboard only annoying thing is one of the keys aren’t correct when I type out. So the “@“ key is actually the ‘ key. Other than that pretty good.
Review: Computer keyboard - Easy to set up and satisfying sound when typing. Excellent value for money. Would definitely buy again and recommend.

## Features

- GASKET-MOUNTED STRUCTURE: Unlike the traditional screw fixed structure, the positioning plate of the SKY98 creamy keyboard is fixed in the middle by the pressure of the upper and lower shells. There are gaskets distributed around the positioning plate to prevent direct contact between the interior and the shells, acting as a cushioning layer and effectively reducing vibration and noise generated when typing. This keyboard feels soft and even, elastic and has pure sound.
- 5-LAYER SOUND ABSORBING FILLING: In order to improve the noise situation, this gasket keyboard is equipped with a IXPE foam pad, PORON foam, diaphragm, EVA soundproofing foam and silicone absorbing pad in the gaps between the positioning plate, PCB board and bottom. This reduces the resonance space inside the keyboard, thereby suppressing hollow sounds and making every key press comfortable and pleasant. For gamers and office users, this keyboard is a great addition to the desktop.
- HOT-SWAPPABLE SOCKET & PRE-LUBED CUSTOM SWITCHES: This 96% mechanical keyboard is compatible with 3-pin or 5-pin switches, allowing you to personalize your keyboard. The switches are individually removable and can be replaced in seconds. The SKY98 keyboard utilizes MageGee's finely tuned switches, which are pre-lubricated at the factory and built to last up to 70 million keystrokes for responsive and creamy typing.
- STUNNING RGB BACKLIGHTING: This custom keyboard has 6 sets of default gaming backlight effects (FN + 1 ~ FN + 6), and 18 built-in backlight modes, as well as adjustable light brightness and speed. Bright static and dynamic lights shine in the dark, illuminating your desktop and enhancing the gaming experience. The switch on the left side of the keyboard turns the light off/on with one click. This 96 percent keyboard supports customized light effects and you can record by pressing FN + Back.
- 96% LAYOUT AND N-KEY ROLLOVER: With 99 keys, this hot-swappable mechanical keyboard retains a separate numeric keypad and all the necessary functions, while reducing its size to save more desktop space. 100% anti-ghosting, each keystroke is detected correctly even if you press a lot of keys on the board at the same time. Instead of the usual solid-color keycap layout, the keyboard uses a color scheme that mixes three colors for a more vibrant and attention-grabbing look.
- WIRED CONNECTION AND WIN/MAC SUPPORT: The SKY98 mechanical gaming keyboard connects via a detachable Type-C USB cable that is both stable and fast. Plug and play, easy to replace the cable. It works on both Mac and Windows systems, so there’s no need to worry about adaptation issues. Press FN + Home to switch between the two systems to help you work more efficiently.
