Key switch type

Key switch type is the defining factor that determines the feel of any keyboard. We offer the following Kailh switch types; each has its character.

Let us first look at the vertical axis of the matrix. You may already be familiar with regular MX switches on countless other keyboards. The box switches feel more precise and better protected from dust; we recommend them for the best typing experience. The silent switches make your UHK more bearable in noise-sensitive environments at the expense of some mushiness.

For the matrix’s horizontal axis, we recommend clicky switches. They provide the best typing experience, but your environment may not tolerate their noise. Gamers often prefer linear switches; tactile switches are the best middle ground between typing and gaming.

If you're still not sure which switch to choose, we strongly recommend purchasing the UHK switch tester.

Layout and keycaps

The UHK keycaps are best-in-class double-shot PBT keycaps that offer excellent shine-through performance, and the legends are easy to read even when they’re not backlit. The surface of these keycaps never gets shiny with use, and their legends never fade. The keycaps’ side legends are silk printed. We don't offer custom keycap printing options, and you can only choose the ones provided.

You can select English US (ANSI), English UK (ISO), Blank ANSI, or Blank ISO. Being a backlit keyboard, we implemented the blank option by placing small translucent dots on every keycap. All these keycap options are made of double-shot PBT.

We only provide a bar-shaped Enter key. The main reason is that it's more ergonomic than the L-shaped Enter key, and it's super easy to get used to, even for ISO users.

If you want a custom UHK 60 keycap set (not backlight-friendly, but high quality), design and order yours from Yuzu. They have presets for German, UK, Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Swiss, Colemak, Colemak-DH, and Dvorak layouts. We don't get any kickback from Yuzu.
