Title: Excellent 98% opti
Review: I caught this on sale for about $40, and I'm not sure you could find a better deal in that price range if you're looking for a full-size (or almost) mechanical keyboard.I bought this keyboard to use while working, since I extensively use a numpad throughout the day. I had recently purchased an Epomaker x Leobog Hi75, and was very pleased with how it came stock, so I thought I'd give the brand another shot. I am very happy with the EK98, and its performance out of the box as well.General Appearance: I really like the retro styling of this board, and it makes me think of an old IBM keyboard or something along those lines. The accent colors on the keycaps is a nice touch. It fits in nicely with my workstation.Build Quality: This is a plastic board, and it's fairly lightweight. It is well made, however, and has some heft to it for a plastic board. It's solid, and doesn't slide around. I haven't taken it apart, but it appears that it would be an easy case to get into.RGB: The RGB is great, but as I mentioned, the caps are not shine through. The LEDS are south facing though, which is generally ideal if you're looking to switch the caps in the future.Keycaps: I don't typically go for a cherry profile, but I have been really enjoying these. They are a pleasure to use, and like the Hi75, I will likely be leaving this board just how it is. The caps are well made, though note that they are not shine through if that is something you are after.Switches: I went with the zebra switch, since that was on sale and I could always change them. However, I think they are nice if a bit lighter than I would typically prefer. They are smooth and relatively quiet.Overall I'm very pleased with this keyboard, and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a quality 98% without breaking the bank.

Title: Doesn’t work via bluetooth
Review: This keyboard DOES work for the ps4.It doesn’t give any instructions on which of the 3 methods works best to connect to the playstation, so that was a bit frustrating.It will NOT work via Bluetooth. I did not test the wired method.It will work using its 2.4ghz connections there is a dongle located at the back of the keyboard which you can plug into a usb port in your ps4. Follow the given 2.4ghz connection guide provided in the manual, and boom, you’re all set.I love the sound and feel.

Title: It’s $40??!!
Review: I bought this on sale for $40. I have the Zebra switches, and it sounds so good out of the box. For $40 there is nothing to complain about. Best quality to price ratio!I am an accountant and require the numpad for daily work. The connectivity looks solid with both Bluetooth and 2.4ghz. I have one connected to my gaming computer and the other to my work laptop.I love the way the keycaps look, and feels great to type on. The sound is very nice. It mentions gasket mount but I’m not really feeling much gasket performance but I tend to like more rigidness anyways so it’s not an issue for me. There are many more pros and at the moment zero cons. Biggest selling point was the price. If I needed this layout and I needed a keyboard I would even recommend it at double the price. But again at 40 dollars, no brainer!

Title: Best sounding keyboard!
Review: I have been looking for a keyboard that was cost efficient, but also felt good typing on and sounded good. This keyboard is amazing and it was a great price. The keys are super smooth, I love the background colors, and it came with a really nice cord.

Title: Dies so fast it might as well not be wireless
Review: The keyboard is pretty. The keys are a little compact but I could learn to live with that. What’s not liveable for me is a wireless keyboard that has to be charged every 18 hours. Plus it goes to sleep if it doesn't sense an input for 15 seconds. So heaven forbid you pause to think during a game.If you like it and plan on using the wired option, you're golden. Those issues don't apply. If you plan on using the wireless option, you'll probably end up like me and start looking for a replacement a week later.

Title: Es bueno, dependiendo de precio.
Review: Yo lo compre a mitad de precio, por lo cual me parece una excelente compra, la batería super buena, el material sonido y diseño excelente. Sin embargo tiene un par de detalles y por eso le doy 4 estrellas y es que las luces de activar el teclado numérico y de mayúsculas cuando se tienen las luces rgb apagadas y se bloquea el equipo estas, ya no funcionan bien, lo otro es el software que no se dejo instalar en Windows 10, y la letra U no funciona bien, toco cambiarla.

Title: EPOMAKER EK98
Review: Outstanding mechanical keyboard for sale price $41 So many features. I wish RGB lighting actually shined through key cap but lighting effects are nice for wow factor. Key touch and feel and layout are good for me. Also not stated EPOMAKER EK98 functions on Ubuntu 24.10 Linux which is what I am using ; )

Review: The Epomaker EK98 Keyboard 97 keys compact mechanical keyboard.This keyboard is great for gaming or productivity. It has many features and the more I use it the more it exceeds my typing experience. It is everything I wanted and much more. I will list down why I'm beyond amazed by this exceptional keyboard and its array of features.Build and Quality: The keyboard is made of premium hard plastic that is sturdy and durable and doesn’t feel cheap. The design is of a retro keyboard with RGB backlight giving it a modern gamer look. Thus it can be used by both enthusiasts in gaming or professional work. The keyboard has some weight to it, so it feels like quality hard plastic material, due to which it has no flex. After having used this keyboard, I can finally understand what the hype is about in these mechanical keyboards and why people swear by them. Each key has a satisfying resistance with great sound when pressed. Overall, there are no complaints about the design or quality of this keyboard.Functionality: The mechanical keyboard has hot-swappable keys. This is great for someone wanting to customize their keyboard to their liking. I’m not an expert enthusiast so I lack expertise in this department but the cherry switches these keyboards are preinstalled with feel and sound great.RGB: I was going to add this to the functionality portion of this review but with how amazing the RGB lighting is in this keyboard, I wanted to dedicate a section to talk about just that. The RGB is the best I have seen on a keyboard. I have been using an Alienware Laptop so already have experienced great RGB, but this keyboard puts that to shame. With the smoothness of the RGB lighting and effects, this keyboard is capable, of enhancing your visual experience. The lights have seamless transitions without exposing any individual LED, unlike the ones on cheap RGB keyboards. You truly have to see it to experience it.Connectivity: This keyboard offers all connectivity options. You can have a wired, 2.4G USB or Bluetooth connection. This is great for anyone's personal preference. If you’re an elite-level gamer then the wired or USB connection can help save you a couple of milliseconds latency. If you're someone like me and just need a simple Bluetooth connection for a seamless experience then it has that too.My Experience: My experience has exceeded my expectations. The more I use this keyboard the more I appreciate it. This review I am typing is on this keyboard.Conclusion: Before experiencing the comfort and satisfaction of a quality mechanical keyboard, I assumed it was overrated, but now I understand why. This keyboard has truly spoiled me to a point where now I won't be going back to portable laptop keyboards. For me, this keyboard is perfect and there is nothing I could suggest that requires improvement. Highly recommend it.

Review: Ho acquistato la tastiera Epomaker EK98 dopo aver letto diverse recensioni positive, e devo dire che ha superato le mie aspettative. Ecco i motivi per cui la consiglio:Design e qualità costruttivaLa EK98 si distingue subito per il suo design compatto ma funzionale. La finitura è eccellente, con una scocca robusta che non scricchiola o si piega. La disposizione dei tasti è ideale per chi cerca una soluzione più compatta rispetto a una tastiera full-size, ma senza sacrificare la presenza del tastierino numerico. Il retroilluminazione RGB è personalizzabile e offre un’ampia gamma di effetti, perfetti sia per creare un ambiente di lavoro accattivante che per sessioni di gaming immersive.Esperienza di digitazioneI tasti montano switch Zebra, che garantiscono una digitazione fluida e silenziosa. Perfetti per lunghe sessioni al PC: scrivere e giocare è un piacere grazie al feedback tattile ben bilanciato. Anche il keycap in PBT double-shot è di qualità eccellente, resistente al consumo e piacevole al tatto.Connettività e funzionalitàLa possibilità di usare la tastiera sia in modalità cablata che wireless (Bluetooth/2.4 GHz) è un vero punto di forza. Il passaggio tra dispositivi è rapido e semplice, e la connessione è stabile. Ideale per chi, come me, alterna tra laptop, tablet e PC desktop. Inoltre, la batteria ha una durata sorprendente, anche con l’illuminazione attivata.PersonalizzazioneLa compatibilità con software di personalizzazione permette di rimappare i tasti e salvare macro, una funzione indispensabile per chi vuole ottimizzare il proprio flusso di lavoro o migliorare le performance in gioco.ConclusioneLa Epomaker EK98 è una tastiera eccellente sotto ogni punto di vista. Se state cercando un prodotto di alta qualità, versatile e con un ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo, non posso che consigliarla.
