Epomaker Split 65
1. Introduction
The idea of split keyboards has been a long time available in the market, with many different solutions and products at the market. EPOMAKER gives its taste of this medicine with the Split 65 keyboard, a product with a four-layer sound-dampening system that promises to create a remarkably quiet, satisfying typing experience with enhanced acoustics and reduced keystroke noise.
Ergonomic and Split Design
The Epomaker Split65 features an ergonomic, split design that enables users to adjust the keyboard's halves to their preferred typing angles. This flexibility allows for a more comfortable and natural typing posture, reducing strain on wrists and forearms during extended gaming sessions or prolonged work periods.
Triple Modes Connectivity
Offering versatile connectivity options, the Epomaker Split65 is equipped with Type-C wired, Bluetooth 5.0, and 2.4GHz wireless modes. This triple connectivity ensures seamless integration with multiple devices, enhancing workflow and gaming setups by allowing quick switches between different systems without the need for re-pairing or multiple keyboards.
4 Layer Sound Dampening Material
To ensure a quieter typing experience, the Split65 incorporates a four-layer sound dampening system. This system includes Poron Sandwich Foam, IXPE Switch Pad, Sound Enhancement Pad, and Poron Switch Socket Pad. Each layer contributes to reducing keystroke noise and enhancing the sound quality of each press for a satisfying acoustic profile.
QMK/VIA Support
The Split65 supports QMK/VIA, powerful tool for keyboard customization. These software options allow users to program and map keys, set up complex macros, and adjust lighting options, providing a highly customizable user experience tailored to personal or professional needs.
Top-mounted & Full-key Hotswappable
Featuring a top-mounted structure, the Split65 offers a stable, yet responsive typing feel with reduced vibrations. Additionally, the full-key hotswappability facilitates easy switch replacements or modifications without soldering, enabling users to experiment with different switch types to match their typing preferences.
NKRO & South-facing RGB Backlight
The Split65 is equipped with NKRO (N-Key Rollover) to ensure that every keystroke is registered, even during intense gaming sessions. Combined with south-facing RGB LEDs, it provides consistent and unobstructed backlighting across all keys, enhancing visibility and aesthetics without the interference of switch shadows.
