Open Box Montech MKey TKL Freedom Gateron Yellow Switch Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

Our First Fantastic Adventure into the World of Keyboards

Montech finally launched the first keyboard in its MKey line after two years of meticulous planning and design. The MKey line aims to create keyboards that offer a premium typing experience while also delivering a captivating story for the product itself. These keyboards are not only functionally superior, but they also bring joy to the user, making typing a wondrous adventure.

A Story full of Adventure and Culture

Inspired by the iconic Osaka Castle in Japan, the MKey keyboard boasts a magnificent design that captures the essence of the castle. The MKey comes with two sets of custom keycaps that are themed around the Osaka Castle, the Osakajo Blue Skies, and Osakajo Dark. The MKey also offers the flexibility of using Cherry-compatible keycaps, giving users complete freedom over customisation options.

5-Sided Sublimation Print Process, Keys that Last

The MKey features the five-sided dye-sublimation keycap technique that ensures vivid and durable icon designs on every key. This technique guarantees that the design will not fade or wear off easily, providing a long-lasting and high-quality finish to each keycap. Even the most discerning of users will be impressed by the level of attention to detail and quality of the keycaps.

Premium MDA Profile Keycaps

The MKey keyboard stays ahead of the curve by adopting the latest trend in keycap preference, utilising MDA Profile Keycaps crafted from premium, high-grade PBT materials. These keycaps are a significant upgrade from standard OEM profile Keycaps, delivering a superior typing experience that sets a new standard in keyboard design. Once you've experienced the luxurious feel of these high-end keycaps, you won't want to go back to anything less.

The Silky-Smooth Typing Experience

The MKey uses Gateron G Pro 2.0 key switches that are known for their smoothness. Every single key switch is pre-lubed at the factory, ensuring a consistent and smooth typing experience. The 2.0 version of the Gateron G Pro key switch has improved and durable top and bottom housing that adds to the key switch's longevity. These features combine to create a keyboard that offers both a silky-smooth typing experience and a sturdy build.

Engineered Acoustics

The MKey incorporates a gasket structure and two custom-made silicone pads that are applied to the PCB circuit board and the bottom of the keyboard. These pads absorb any vibration or atypical sound, resulting in a flawless auditory experience. The gasket structure and silicone pads work together to create a keyboard that offers minimal noise and maximum comfort, ensuring that users can type for long periods without any distractions.

Dynamic and Glorious RGB

The MKey features a total of 18 RGB lighting modes, with RGB LEDs located beneath every key. Users can easily swap and change lighting modes directly on the keyboard or through software. Unlike other competitors, the MKey uses south-facing LED switches, allowing users to switch to different shaped and styled Cherry-compatible keycaps without any limitations. This feature provides users with the freedom to customise their keyboard's appearance to their heart's content while ensuring a seamless lighting experience.

MKey Rotary Knob: Quick Access to Essential Functions

The MKey's Rotary Knob has three main modes: zoom in and out, volume adjustment, and RGB mode switching. Users can easily cycle through these modes by pressing down on the knob, which features a Patent Pending bottom lighting ring that shows the current mode. The Rotary Knob provides users with quick access to essential functions without the need for additional software or keystrokes.

A Powerhouse of Features for Enhanced Productivity

The MKey keyboard boasts a wide range of impressive features. In addition to offering all twelve F-keys, it also includes a convenient Windows Key Lock function, N-key rollover, and a macro recording feature. These features can be easily accessed either directly through the keyboard or through Montech's MKey software. Moreover, the F12 key has an alternate "Boss Key!" function that acts as a direct shortcut to the desktop, providing an extra layer of convenience for users.

Your Keyboard, Your Hot Swappable Key Switches

The MKey keyboard boasts fully hot-swappable key switches thanks to Kailh's innovative Hot-swap sockets. This feature makes the keyboard highly versatile, as it is compatible with both 3-pin and 5-pin switches. Customising the keyboard to your liking is a breeze with the easy-to-use Switch Puller that comes included, allowing you to effortlessly remove and replace switches.

Ergonomic Design with Adjustable Tilt Angles for Optimal Comfort

The MKey keyboard offers three adjustable tilt angles at 3°, 6°, and 9°, all of which have been carefully tested to provide optimal typing ergonomics and comfort for your wrists and palms. These levels of adjustment ensure that you can find the perfect angle to suit your needs and preferences, minimising discomfort and maximising productivity.
