Following a successful first collaboration in August 2024, innovative peripheral brand MCHOSE and global tech review powerhouse Unbox Therapy (UT) are proud to announce the launch of their first co-branded keyboard, the UT98 Mechanical Keyboard, debuting on Kickstarter on July 17, 2025. The partnership began when Lewis received a sample of the MCHOSE GX87 keyboard last August. Impressed by its soft, bouncy typing experience, he featured it in a review video. The response was overwhelming—over 5 million views across platforms and widespread user praise.

In response, MCHOSE and UT set out to create a new keyboard that would retain the GX87's tactile excellence—but make it quieter.
After months of co-development and refinement, the UT98 keyboard is ready for launch. It comes with two switch options for different preferences.
