NZXT Announces the Function Keyboard, Lift Mouse, and Customization Service

NZXT, a leader in PC gaming hardware and services, today announces a new step into the peripheral market with the Function modular mechanical keyboard and the Lift lightweight ambidextrous mouse. NZXT will also be adding a deeper customization service to NZXT BLD allowing users to ensure their system and set-up can fit their unique style.

The NZXT Function modular mechanical keyboard is a low-profile keyboard with an aluminium body designed to allow users to tailor their experiences to fit their personal preferences. It includes customizable features that the custom keyboard community looks for, like hot-swappable switches, detachable USB C cable, and standard bottom rows. This allows users to finely tune their board to their exact color, sound, and feel.
The NZXT Lift lightweight ambidextrous mouse is a minimalist mouse designed for gamers. Each Lift mouse is packed with a High-end PixArt 3389 optical sensor and Omron switches which allows for the speed and ease of use that keeps players competitive. Both products have RGB lighting that is controllable via NZXT CAM, allowing for further customization so that users can match their system lighting and peripheral lighting with ease. Additionally, mouse pads will be on sale on NZXT.com in three sizes and colors for further customization of their setup.

In countries where NZXT BLD is present users can customize their Function Keyboard, for a $9.99 service fee, and Lift Mouse and have them shipped to them directly. It will allow users to change their base colors, switches, accent keycaps, and cable colors and have them shipped to you with options not available found in retail Function keyboards. And allow for Lift mouse users to purchase a mouse with an accent color and cable of their choosing.

Looks like keys are opaqe to backlight and light reflects to baseplate making it a useless feature. Also key options restricted to Gaetoron.

love the layout, I'm a huge fan of keyboards smaller than TKL, BUT with the arrow keys.....unfortunately, NZXT is overpriced though

Nice looking, with a minimalist design that I like, but......

1. Cam powered = auto no buy for me...

2. Has a tail = auto no buy for me too...

3. a little overpriced...

Make it wireless/BT, cam-free and $80-100, then come talk to me again :)

That's an 80%. A TKL with the right side squished.
