Shallow Gasket Structure & Bottom Foam
The GK980 keyboard is adapted with the patented Shallow Gasket design, which comes with an all-in-one silicone pad, which is meticulously made of lightweight liquid silicone with high precision to match each switch. Inserted in between the PCB board and the plate, the Shallow Gasket silicone pad not only eliminates the traditional designโs drawback of lacking support in the main typing area, but also cushions the shock under every keystroke. The keyboard also contains a foam at the bottom layer to reduce hallow sounds, as well as enhancing the feeling of typing stokes.
Hot-swappable Module for Knobs and Switches
The Skyloong GK980 keyboard is equipped with hot swappable terminals, with which you can install 3/5 pin switches directly without soldering. In this version, GK980 is with hotswappable modules specifically designed for both knobs and switches. By simply pulling it out, you can easily swap the knob with a regular mechanical switch and keycap. Thanks to the powerful proprietary software, you can also customize the knob's function at will.
Wired and Wireless: Type-C, 2.4G & Bluetooth 5.1 Connections
Designed for versatility, the GK980 can be used in distinct three ways: Bluetooth 5.1, 2.4G USB wireless, and Type C wired connections. You can connect the keyboard to your devices with the included Type-C cable, using a 2.4G wireless dongle, or simply using the latest Bluetooth 5.1 connection. Connecting up to 2 devices via Bluetooth and wireless 2.4GHz simultaneously. The signal transmission is stable to meet the needs of diverse work, study, and entertainment.
Split Spacebar Module & PBT Keycaps in GK5 Profile
As a member in the GK Lite series, GK980 keyboard also includes an extra split spacebar module (2.75U/2.25U/1.25U) with which you can customize it based on your own typing habit. As to the keycaps, we go with premium PBT material to achieve an ultimate experience. With the scrubbed surface texture, they feel smooth and it is oil-proof, so it won't remain your fingerprints even after a long time use. The GK5 profile makes the classic shape provide a comfortable typing experience while using the GK980 keyboard.
16.8 Million RGB Backlight
Set up the colors and rhythm in the way you like it and match up the lighting effects with your mode every day! There are different backlight effects available for you to choose, and you can even customize your own gaming light modes in the software. Make your keyboard unique by matching its color scheme with your room!
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.
