96% Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

The Epomaker TH96 is a powerful keyboard packed with functionality in a premium design. Thanks to the special structural design, the TH96 feels completely solid due to the stainless steel plate, which adds weight and strength to the board. It is innovatively designed featuring the silicone gasket mount structure, added silicone sound-absorbing foam, poron foam utilization, and a thick silicone damping bottom pad which all provide a responsive and peaceful typing sound..

Hotswappable Epomaker Custom Switches

When it comes to the feeling and performance of your switches, every detail counts. We are proud to present our latest innovations, the Epomaker Customized Switches! These mechanical switches are custom designed after extensive research on the market's most acclaimed switches and have been improved through community inputs. Strong, smooth, and see-through, Epomaker's first mechanical switches are available in linear switches or tactile switches.

Wired with QMK/VIA or Triple-mode with Bluetooth & 2.4Ghz

Equipped with different chips, this keyboard supports QMK/VIA under the wired version. With the QMK/VIA or the proprietary software, you can easily configure different keycaps for both Mac and Windows. Customize your keyboard with your personal typing preference! The wireless version, on the other hand, can be connected by either Bluetooth (up to 5.0) or 2.4GHz. TH96 can connect up to 3 devices wirelessly for seamless multitasking across your laptop, phone, and tablet. The modes can be easily switched by Fn+1!/2@/3#(Bluetooth) / 4$(2.4GHz) / 5%(USB Wired).

PBT Keycaps with MDA Profile & Dye-sub Technique

Continuing with our previous Epomaker TH66 and Epomaker TH80 models, which are already available on the market, the Epomaker TH96 also adopts PBT keycaps to provide a textured feeling and durability. Our premium PBT keycaps are made through thermal sublimation, meaning the labels will not fade over time. The classic MDA profile is for the Theory version and the MDA V2 profile for the Grey White Version. Compared with the classic profile, the MDA V2 inherits the height while optimizing the keycap edge to be rounder, delivering a smoother touching feel.

ISO Version Available

The whole community is calling for keyboards that has ISO layouts. And so, we are adding an ISO-UK layout to the TH96! With an L shape large enter key and 1u \| key between the shift key and letter Z, the ISO version can also fit other languages with the simalar layout.

Amazing RGB Effects with South-Facing PCB & Programmable with Software

Everyone loves RGB lights, but whatโ€™s the use when the typist canโ€™t easily see them? The TH96 is designed with south-facing RGB to better illuminate the keyboard backlight from the typistโ€™s perspective. The south-facing RGB is also free from interference if the user decides to install Cherry-profile alternative keycaps on their keyboard. With more than 19 types of RGB backlight settings as well as a static white backlight option. You can further fine-tune the RGB hue, saturation, brightness, and effect speed with ease.

Select the best switch for your style.

Before choosing what type of mechanical or optical switch, we need to understand it is mostly about preference. You need to look into what will work best for you and what you will use your keyboard for the most. Our Epomaker GK series, and some of our other keyboards allow for hotswappability. This means that even if you dislike the current switch you bought, you can swap it to another switch. Which switch you can swap to depends on your keyboard type.

Great keyboard, some issues, superb support

I had an issue with the keyboard unable to lay flat. I have contacted the support team and they have helped me with instruction vidoes and send me replacement parts twice over a period of two months. Abeit a long progress, they were very helpful and solved my issue (thank you Yvette!).

As for the keyboard, its great overall.

Pros:
- typing sound and feel is superb right out of the gate, no lubing is needed (pre-lubed)
- build is solid, plastic doesn't feel cheap
- good value
- looks great
- removable cable
- plug and play, but also supports QMK/VIA

Mid:
- nob's buttom is a bit hard to press; nob's shape and slippery texture makes turning it a little bit harder than I expected (you cannot turn the knob with one finger only)
- keycaps of the 4 arrow keys are somehow shorter, not a fan

Cons:
- does not support newest version of VIA, must use the version they provided (1.3.1)
- the three indicator lights are way too bright its like a flashlight lol, but its an easy fix (I put a small piece of paper to block some of the lights)

Other suggestions:
- would be great if home and end keys are also included

Love it! But just one flaw.

I love how nice my keyboard feels and the size of it is perfect. However, some of the keys donโ€™t work and need to be pressed multiple times to work.

Loving the keyboard for both work and gaming. However have had problems setting up QMK on it.

First Custom Keyboard - Theory ansi w Flamingos

This is my first custom keyboard so I'm using it stock (expt a few key caps). I went down the rabbit hole of custom keyboards on Youtube. This didnt have as many reviews as other keyboards but its design was my favourite by far.
I can say the keys are fantastic. Factory lube is pretty good. There are a handful of keys I would like to re-lube though.

Sound is great and thoccy (I have the linear switches).

The Nob is lovely and large.

I have the wireless version and with the addition of powertoys I've been able to remap and shortcut to my liking very easily. Not to mention its f*cking adorable.
RGB settings are pretty varied - you can change the speed and colour of each setting too.

It would be great if the lubing was 100% but I wont take any point off for that.
I'd love to see these come with extra lube for user application.

The best keyboard ever

I participated in the Kickstarter campaign for this product and I don't regret it. The materials of this keyboard are excellent. The RGB and functions are awesome. It's super easy to re-assign keys with the software and you can mode it by using other switches or keycaps.

I prefer to use this keyboard for work since it has the numpad included, which is awesome.

I had a problem with the windows key but contacted customer service. Now it is fine again XD

Thank you so much :D
