EPOMAKERGalaxy100 QMK/VIA Wireless Gaming Keyboard, Aluminum Shell, Bluetooth/2.4Ghz/USB-C, Pre-Lubed Hot-Swappable Linear Switches, NKRO, RGB Backlit (Creamy White, Marble White Switch)

This is my first time buying a mechanical keyboard brand new, not secondhand off Amazon or eBay, and I couldn’t be happier with the choice. I’ve used a few different keyboards before—starting with a wired Logitech, then moving on to a Keychron K1 Slim Profile. That one was fine, but the ultra-thin, chiclet-style keys made it a little tougher to get used to for long typing sessions. There was no real curvature to the keys, so it didn’t do much for muscle memory.I’m not super into the custom keyboard world, and I don’t know a ton about switches or keycap quality, but this thing blows every keyboard I’ve used out of the water.The standout feature? The build quality.The entire body is made of metal—something you almost never see in this price range. Most keyboards around this price point are plastic, plain and simple. The metal frame was 90% of why I bought it, and it did not disappoint. It’s got a solid weight to it and feels incredibly durable. This is the kind of keyboard that stays on your desk for years. I wouldn’t travel with it—way too hefty for that—but as a permanent setup piece, it’s perfect.Typing experience? Smooth and satisfying.The keys sound great—soft, muted clicks with none of the harsh clatter you might associate with mechanical boards. The default keycaps are a neutral tone that goes nicely with my setup (I’m using a white monitor currently), and while they’re not see-through, they still look clean and well-made.A few small drawbacks worth mentioning:• The included software didn’t recognize the keyboard at all on my system. That means I couldn’t customize anything—not even rebind the volume knob (which I believe is supposed to be customizable). This might just be a firmware thing, but it was frustrating.• The LEDs underneath the keys are okay, but the keys themselves are solid (not translucent), so the lighting doesn’t shine through the legends like it does on other boards I’ve used. Not a dealbreaker, but something to be aware of if RGB is important to you.Overall:If you’re looking for a high-quality, metal-frame mechanical keyboard without jumping into the $200+ range, this is absolutely it. It’s easily the best-built keyboard I’ve owned, and despite the software issues, I love typing on it. Would buy again in a heartbeat.

Excellent keyboard.Keys are smooth, long travel, and sound great.Whilst it pretty much has every key it's more compact than a full-sized keyboard- which took some getting used to.Its incredibly sturdy, and weights several pounds easy.Battery life is great.Was able to easily customize the key functions using the via app. Couldn't recommend more.If youre looking for a high end 95% mech keyboard this is the one for you

This keyboard feels great out of the box. I have been searching for a few days for a nice full size board and this one seemed to be a good start for entering the world of mechanical keyboards. I saw a lot of hate on this brand on reddit, but I decided to get it anyway because it seemed like a great deal. Also all the demo videos sounded really good. I can definitely say that the marble whites sound very satisfying, although, they are a bit light so it will take some getting used to. I have tried bluetooth, the dongle, and usb and it all works well. I really like the RGB option where it lights up the local keys around the ones you press. I do not care too much to customize the board functionality, so I cannot say how well that realm works. I am still new to mech boards.Overall I would say it is worth it. The aluminum frame is very sturdy and a good amount of weight. I am enjoying it very much so far!

This is the perfect example of a board with "good bones." For those who need a full size num pad, those extra keys allow you to play around with different switch styles (and switch combos if you're ADVENTUROUS...). Do you need heavy switches on the bottom row? How about clicky switches to remind you when you put caps lock or num lock on. Should you use basic switches for the function row, and lesser used keys? Tactiles for the arrow keys?With this board, you can become an oyster; and turn sand into a pearl.--- --- ---Who should buy this:This board is for any value-conscious worker bee mechanical keyboard enthusiast who demands a full-size numpad, and WILL tinker with it in some capacity. Gamers...Not so much IMHO.--- --- ---Pros:- Solid Aluminum build.- Off-white color is refreshing compared to the usual bleach white.- Bright RGB.- Hotswap.- Easily accessible mode selector switch.Cons:- Stock keycaps are...fineeee, but drab (for the white color combo).- Stock linear switches were instant trash.- A LOT of keycaps to replace means you need a larger keycap set.- 98% layout doesn't really save space compared to a true full size.- No onboard 2.4ghz dongle storage. Anywhere. Seriously???--- --- ---Parting shot:This is a quality board, made by a reputable company. If this board is singing it's siren seeing to you, just jump. You'll appreciate being pulled into the depths!!!Have fun. Ahoy!

I wanted a solid, heavy keyboard for work that also had a number pad. Searched around and read that this brand was good for creamy sound and it was a decent price. I love the retro color. Reminds me of the old school mechanical keyboard we had for the family computer in the 90s.

People said this was heavy, but that's an understatement. Needless to say the cats won't be able to jostle it. It took me a minute to realize I didn't need software to change the lighting, it's just done from FN keys. I also really love this lighting scheme! Has a satisfying sound that was pretty accurate to the videos I watched. I'll need a wrist pad as it comes up about 3/4 inch from the table to bottom lip.

This was my first “fancy” keyboard and it’s amazing. The wisteria keys sounds exactly how you want a soft clacky key to sound. The rgb light options are really cool as well. But the best thing for me is the solid build quality and feel, all aluminum, heavy and sturdy.
