Review: Beautiful and smooth clacking keys- unfortunately wired - I just used this for the first time to assist my son writing an article for a nomination entry. Worked smoothly and flawless. I love the sound the keys make and ease of finding the keys without looking. Sometimes the thinner keys on new keyboards catch my big fingers causing a lot of errors and taking time away from what ever project I am working on at the time. I think this is good for home and if you have a private office at work it would be fine. Cubicle working- the key stroke noise may bother some people. That is what I love about it the most. Pros- sound and smoothness Cons-it is wired and will not work without it plugged in. Sometimes I like to stand with a desktop keyboard riser, (sciatic issues) I don’t like the wires hanging. It’s ugly and my OCD wants to throat punch the maker. Lol. I need to find a keyboard with this quality, wireless and affordable. For now this is a great keyboard for someone who just wants simple happiness in their lives. I did see a lot of comments about taking it apart and putting different keys in basically rebuilding it… that wasn’t my goal. Okay well I said my piece, I hope this helps the people who just like the click sound and big keys for basic needs.
Review: Perfect entry-level mechanical keyboard - This was a great entry to the world of mechanical keyboards and a great value for the money. The keys seem to be comparable to reds and feels and sounds so nice. I got some extra keycaps to swap out and they swap easily. It feels sturdy and comes with a removable USB-C cord so if that every breaks I can easily replace it.

## 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful and smooth clacking keys- unfortunately wired
*by D***L on November 13, 2025*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect entry-level mechanical keyboard
*by A***R on October 28, 2025*

This was a great entry to the world of mechanical keyboards and a great value for the money. The keys seem to be comparable to reds and feels and sounds so nice.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great feedback and sound, I LOVE this keyboard
*by S***S on July 22, 2024*

I love this keyboard. The RGB lighting is simple to activate and change, and the keys make a perfect combination of creamy and clicky sound. The feedback appears to be great as well, but I haven't tried out a shooting game with it just yet - I have used it for Monster Hunter World and it worked perfectly. The color of the keys is exactly what I was hoping for, and I love that the key remover tool and additional keys are provided if you want to customize the appearance of the keyboard. Because it is a slightly more compact keyboard, there was a little bit of getting used to the orientation of the right arrow key making the 0 key on the numpad smaller, but it was a quick adjustment. A fantastic feature of this keyboard is that it plugs in via USB-C, meaning that if there are any issues with the cord, it is easy to replace just that part, and not have to replace the entire keyboard, which I appreciate, especially with a toddler in the house and hopefully a cat or dog in the future.
