YUNZII wants to shake up the keyboard market with the new Keynovo IF98 that offers premium features at a very reasonable price. This 98-key gasket mount keyboard with hot-swappable switches uses a translucent case paired with front and rear badges, and RGB lighting and software support round off its attractive feature set!

Benchmark Scores bench...mark? i do leave mark on bench sometime, to remember which one is the most comfortable. :o
interesting one, neat design and build quality and the form factor is quite unusual, a 96%? well that's a good compromise for those who want a compact but still need a numpad, and the price is quite adjusted given it is fully customizable.

tho the name :laugh: i confess i did read Lenovo instead

edit, I'd buy it just for the otter stickers :D

Benchmark Scores What's a "benchmark"?
The translucent plastic takes me back, in a good way. Shame about the fully opaque keycaaps and plates with marketing slogans seem unnecessary but, I'll say it again, it'd great that more manufacturers take on smaller but fully featured form factors. Thank you for the review.
