Epomaker previously revealed the Galaxy75 in an official livestream video, but the peripheral maker has now officially launched the Galaxy75 alongside a new keyboard, the Bamboo75. As we covered previously, the Galaxy75 features a relatively standard 75% layout, an aluminium case, polycarbonate plate, a mix of PBT and PC/ABS keycaps, wireless connectivity with an 8,000 mAh battery, and Epomaker's Creamy Jade linear switches. The official launch price, which was previously unknown, is $109 on Epomaker's site, and the Galaxy75 is available in three colorways: black, purple, and pink.

The Epomaker Bamboo75, on the other hand, is a slightly more interesting affair. It takes a similar, but notably not identical, layout to the Galaxy75 but swaps out the cutesy pastel and minimalist aesthetics of the Galaxy75 for a more nature-inspired design, thanks to a case made of bamboo and keycaps made of a mix of ABS and PBT with wood grain print on the top. Those Cherry profile keycaps also feature a side-printed shine-through legend, which allows the south-facing per-key RGB backlighting to shine through while keeping the consistent wood aesthetic when looking at the keyboard from the top. Like the Galaxy75, the Bamboo75 also packs wireless connectivity, with both Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz connectivity, and it also has an 8,000 mAh battery, although Epomaker doesn't provide any claims of battery life.

ATK has officially launched the updated version of its RS6 Hall effect gaming keyboard, introducing a number of aesthetics and quality of life updates over the keyboard's first iteration. The RS6 V2 is already available on ATK's website for $109.98 as part of an introductory offer, but it has an official MSRP of $139.98. The RS6 V2 follows a familiar 65% layout seen previously on the RS6, but it swaps out the tray-mount design of the original for a new gasket-mounted design. Additionally, the RS6 V2 is also only available in three colorways, for now: a pinkish Burgundy Red, the neutral Meteorite Gray, and Moonlight Silver.

One of the other major updates, and a feature that is still relatively rare, even in aesthetics-focused gaming keyboards, is the addition of dual-position per-key RGB backlighting, which allows for proper use of keycaps with both regular top shine-through legends and the more niche side-printed shine-through legends. The RS6 V2 ships by default with double-shot PBT keycaps with translucent sides and fully translucent keys on some accent keys, so this RGB lighting setup should play well with the keyboard's default keycaps.

Akasa, a leading provider of thermal solutions, announced the Fermi CM5, a slim 1U fanless aluminium case designed for the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 (CM5) with the CM5 IO Board. At 43.6 mm high, it fits within 1U of rack height, measuring 185 x 93 x 43.6 mm (W x D x H) with a compact volume of 0.8L. The case is designed to support up to 10 W TDP, with openings for the main CM5 IO Board interfaces. With its compact form factor and silent operation, the Fermi CM5 is ideal for digital signage, kiosks, edge AI gateways and industrial automation, as well as vision and sensor deployments.

Heat from the CM5 SoC and M.2 NVMe SSD is conducted into the all-aluminium chassis through dedicated custom aluminium thermal modules and high-performance thermal pads. The chassis acts as a heatsink and dissipates heat passively through its external fins. With no fans and no moving parts, the Fermi CM5 removes fan noise, fan wear and fan-driven dust intake, making it suited for applications requiring stable operation under 24/7 continuous use.

Epomaker has officially confirmed that it is planning to launch a 75% version of its popular Galaxy series mechanical keyboards, building on the Galaxy100, Galaxy100 Lite, Galaxy80, Galaxy70, and Galaxy68. Although pricing is yet to be confirmed, the keyboard was shown off in a recent Epomaker livestream, and there is already a product page for it on the Epomaker online store, denoting key specs and features. Speculation would put the Galaxy75 somewhere around the $80-100 price point, since the Galaxy68 and Galaxy70 are priced at $99.99 on Epomaker's website and Amazon. According to the site, the Galaxy75 will be available only with Epomaker's Creamy Jade linear switches.

Unlike the Galaxy70 and Galaxy68, the Galaxy75 follows a more traditional, no-frills 75% layout, replete with a key in the F13 position and a full four-key navigation column on the right edge of the keyboard. The construction is also fairly standard, with an aluminium chassis, polycarbonate switch plate, and five layers of sound-damping foam, all of which Epomaker says delivers a "dense thock" sound signature. The case is also gasket mounted, and the keyboard has two aesthetic touches in the sparkle in what appears to be an electrophoretic coating and in the keycap sets. The Galaxy75 will launch in three colors, each of which has a matching Cherry profile keycap set: the black keyboard comes with black and orange dye-sublimated keycaps with cityscape printing, and the lavender and pink versions come with a mix of dye-sublimated solid PBT keycaps with accent keycaps featuring opaque ABS under a clear PC layer with UV-printed legends.

In mid-May, Google announced that it is working on bringing its new Googlebook devices to the masses, with a promise to introduce a new operating system featuring integrated Gemini AI across the board. As the company collaborates with multiple OEMs, including Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, and Lenovo, we have received the first leak of the Lenovo Googlebook 15 model. This model is set to offer a 15-inch experience of Google's upcoming "Aluminium" operating system. Thanks to a leak by Digital Citizen, we can see the first renderings of the Lenovo Googlebook 15, showcasing a sandblasted aluminium casing in a 15-inch body. The device features the traditional Lenovo bezel and overall design, housed in a medium-thickness body.

On the keyboard front, Lenovo has included a small "G" button with the Google icon, reminiscent of the Windows key on standard Windows-based laptops. Two speakers flank the keyboard, and the left side of the unit includes an HDMI port, a USB-C or Thunderbolt port, and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. On the right, there is another USB-C port, a USB Type-A port, and a slot similar to an SD card reader. Specifications such as display resolution, refresh rate, and details about the processor powering this PC are currently unknown, but we expect to learn more when Googlebooks officially launch. Scheduled for release in the fall of this year, we are still months away from the official debut.

Cooler Master, a global leader in PC components and thermal management solutions, today launched its MasterFan A Series and MasterFan M Series fans, which have received strong evaluations from Cybenetics Labs, with recognition for excellent airflow and static pressure. Among all 120 mm fans evaluated by Cybenetics to date, MasterFan A120 and MasterFan M120 ranked among the strongest performers, especially in static pressure generation, earning the highest Diamond rating. MasterFan A Series and MasterFan M Series are available now in 120 mm formats, 140 mm will be available at a later date. Pre-orders for A120 and M120 are available now on Amazon.

The MasterFan A Series was developed around Cooler Master's continued focus on its Thermal Authority: solving harder cooling challenges through material science, mechanical precision, and system-level performance. Unlike conventional plastic fans, the MasterFan A Series uses die-cast aluminium blades and an aluminium frame to achieve near-zero deformation at high RPM. This allows a precise 0.6 mm blade-to-frame clearance, helping reduce air leakage and improve cooling efficiency through dense radiators, heatsinks, and obstructed case intakes.

QwertyKeys, the budget brand of Owlab, has just revealed the new QK100 Mk2 wireless mechanical keyboard, which is slated to become available on July 24, 2026, for an MSRP of $219 from the QwertyKeys online store. The QK100 Mk2 is a pre-built keyboard with an aluminium case, tri-mode connectivity, and an 1800 layout that allows for a more compact footprint without sacrificing the num pad or full-size zero key on the bottom of the num pad. There are a handful of unique upgrades to the QK100 Mk2 and more than a few features that set it apart from other mechanical keyboards. For starters, the QK100 Mk2 features a small LCD between the num pad and the main alpha deck, which can be used to show the time and useful information, like the keyboard's battery level, or simply as a tool for fun and customization, with its cutesy cat-themed animations and an "Animal Grocery" typing game built into the display. Above the num pad, there is also an LED strip that reacts to ambient noise and a touch-sensitive strip that can be used to adjust system volume of the connected PC. Next to the escape key, the QK100 Mk2 also has a retro-styled button that is programmed to toggle the keyboard's per-key RGB backlighting.

The QK100 Mk2 supports both Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz for wireless connectivity, with physical switches on the back to select both connection mode and OS layout, and it charges and connects via USB Type-C. Wireless connectivity is supported by an 8,000 mAh battery that QwertyKeys claims will allow the keyboard to deliver upwards of 800 hours of use on a charge with backlighting and displays disabled, up to 100 hours with just the display enabled, and up to 40 hours with all the backlighting and display features enabled. The keyboard features a polypropylene plate, which should give it a softer bottom-out with a slightly damped sound signature. It uses Neo Oat switches, which are linear switches with a 36 gf start force and 45 gf bottom-out force, 3.6 mm of total travel, and nylon top and bottom housings. The QK100 Mk2 will be available in four colors: Radiant Silver, Black Knight, Aquamarine Blue, and Strawberry Pink, and all of the colors will come with matching ABS keycaps in the familiar Cherry profile.

At Computex 2026, WizMax, the hardware brand of South Korean Hanmi Micronics, showcased a range of new PC chassis and its Calux aluminium keyboard. The new PC case lineup includes the Prism Max, Prism Pro, Ara Max, Lucent, Vista, Monochrome, and Artrian. The Prism Max is a dual-chamber ATX chassis with BTF motherboard support, three-sided glass panels, support for 410 mm graphics cards, and CPU coolers up to 175 mm tall. The Prism Pro offers a similar design in microATX and Mini-ITX form factors.

The Ara Max supports ATX-BTF motherboards, features a front-mounted PSU layout, clearance for 460 mm graphics cards and 160 mm CPU coolers, and supports up to a 360 mm top radiator. The Lucent and Vista models feature integrated temperature displays, support for ATX-BTF motherboards, graphics cards up to 470 mm long, CPU coolers up to 180 mm tall, and radiators up to 420 mm.

Keychron has been steadily updating its mechanical keyboard line-up with ZMK firmware and its new Silk POM mechanical switches. One of the more recent updates is the Keychron P6 Ultra, which features a full-size layout, 8 kHz polling, and an understated design with a neat party trick. The hallmark feature of the P6 Ultra is its quick-disassembly ball-catch closure mechanism, which allows for toolless disassembly of the aluminium case. This is becoming more common in mechanical keyboards, because it allows you to more easily get at the internals for modifications, although it does introduce a drawback in that it makes the front height slightly taller—the P2 Ultra measures in at 22.25 mm as a result. Aside from the quick-release closure, the P6 Ultra also features a programmable knob, and the entire keyboard is customizable and programmable in Keychron Launcher, the brand's VIA-like web driver.

The P6 Ultra is available on Keychron's online store for $199.99 and on Amazon for $179.99, and it can be purchased with the Silk POM Red (linear), Brown (tactile), and Banana (early-bump tactile) switches. It is only available in black, and it comes with black Cherry profile double-shot PBT keycaps with gray and orange accent keys. Keychron says the 4,000 mAh battery in the P6 Ultra is capable of keeping it going for 660 hours on a single charge, at least without the backlighting disabled. With the backlighting on its lowest brightness, that drops to 200 hours per Keychron. It features both 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity for convenience and broad compatibility. Unlike many of Keychron's other mechanical keyboards, this seems to be based on a design similar to that of the Lemokey P2 HE, which also features the same silicone bean gasket mount and quick-disassembly feature.

One of the first Intel "Wildcat Lake" laptops has been revealed, showcasing a design language that closely resembles Apple's highly popular $599 MacBook Neo model. Intel's own reference design model features a standard 6-core "Wildcat Lake" configuration with two Xe3 cores and a 17 TOPS NPU, all housed in an aluminium chassis with a bright color theme, similar to Apple's MacBook Neo. The Intel reference design "Wildcat Lake" laptop operates with a 17 W PL1 mode, which measures the base TDP, and a 35 W PL2 for running the new WCL chip at maximum turbo frequency. There is also a high-performance mode for maximizing core performance with a 22 W PL1 base TDP, as well as a mode for fanless operation. In the PL1 power mode at 11 W, WCL chips can function in fanless environments, making them very versatile.

When Intel launched the "Wildcat Lake" Core 300 series of processors, the company aimed to satisfy value-oriented buyers seeking good CPU performance and basic GPU output in small form-factor commercial and edge AI PCs. The platform's hybrid core configuration, combining two "Cougar Cove" P-cores with four LPE "Darkmont" cores, should provide sufficient CPU power for basic tasks in the entry-level segment. Especially when paired with the NPU 5, Xe display and media engine, and a GPU that includes up to two Xe3 cores, this SoC should handle tasks with ease, along with some very light entry-level gaming.

A USB flash drive is one of those small essentials you reach for from time to time to back up data or transfer files between your Raspberry Pi and substitute computers. For basics like these, it's tempting to reach for the cheapest thing on Amazon or whatever you find in your local supermarket, but you can easily end up with a device that has sluggish read and write speeds, fragile casing, or - worst of all - far less storage capacity than it claims. Better to go with something you can rely on: introducing the Raspberry Pi Flash Drive, a compact high-capacity USB 3.0 USB-A device with fast data transfer and an all-aluminium enclosure. It's available now at $30 for 128 GB, or $55 for 256 GB.

We've brought our usual exacting standards and attention to detail to our new accessory. It can sustain a write speed of 75 MB/s (128 GB variant) or 150 MB/s (256 GB variant), and our thorough testing has made sure it can handle the demands of real life when it comes to sudden disconnection and power failure. Its ergonomic all-aluminium enclosure is easy to grasp and almost impossible to break, although you'll manage it if, like jdb of this parish, you go at it with a blowtorch. It has an attachment hole so you can keep it on a keyring or similar. The Raspberry Pi logo is etched with classy understatement onto its upper surface.

Infinitely fast and portable into the new year: After the launch of the new InfinityBook Max 15 with Ryzen AI processors at the end of last year, its larger but equally ultraslim sibling, the InfinityBook Max 16, is ready to hit the market with even more impressive features.

Despite its robust high-quality full-metal chassis, this Linux business workstation weighs just over 2 kg despite being powered by an absolute high-end processor, the Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX, while the display features an outstanding high-resolution OLED panel option with brilliant contrast and color reproduction. Combined with fast NVIDIA graphics, up to 128 GB RAM, and a 99 Wh battery, the InfinityBook Max 16 is a stylish, slim, and very lightweight CPU and graphics workstation for software development, demanding media design, and gaming.

Keychron recently unveiled the first keyboards in the 8K refresh of its Q series analog gaming keyboards, and now it has revealed the Q2 HE 8K, which is a 65% version of the Q1 HE 8K. Much like the bigger versions that launched in November, the Keychron Q2 HE 8K features an all-aluminium chassis with a gasket mount, and it uses Keychron's OSA profile double-shot PBT keycaps for a slightly different look than the regular Cherry or OEM profile. It also uses the Keychron Ultra-Fast Lime Magnetic switches, which are lightweight, short-throw magnetic switch, coming in at just 35 gf actuation force and 3.35 mm of total travel. It also features an updated controller, which now delivers 8,000 Hz polling rate, although it has sacrificed the wireless connection of the prior Q HE series keyboards for the reduced latency. The updated sensors in the Q2 HE 8K also make the Q2 HE 8K keyboard compatible with a wider assortment of magnetic switches, rather than being limited to the south-pole Gateron Double-Rail Magnetic switches like previous Keychron HE keyboards.

The Keychron Q2 HE 8K is available from Keychron directly for $229.99, and it is available in both white and black colorways, both of which feature purple accents on the enter and escape keys and the CNC-machined aluminium knobs. The 65% layout is a slight variation of the traditional 65% layout, in the sense that it only features two navigation keys to the right of the alpha column, instead of the regular four keys. This is partially to accommodate the knob, but it is also because the Q2 HE 8K uses an exploded 65% layout, with space between the alpha cluster and the arrow keys and the navigation column. The Q2 HE 8K is fully customizable in Keychron Launcher, with support for analog features like Rapid Trigger, SOCD, Snap Tap, controller emulation, and Mod Tap, but there are also traditional mechanical keyboard customization options, like macro recording, layer setup, and key remapping. Actuation point customization is adjustable from 0.01 mm to 3.35 mm, with a minimum sensitivity of 0.001 mm.

Samsung Electronics today announced the launch of Galaxy Z TriFold, further expanding Samsung's leadership in new form factors for the mobile AI era. Built on a decade of foldable category innovation, Galaxy Z TriFold showcases engineering mastery with its most advanced foldable technologies optimized for the unique demands of a multi-folding design. Its slim profile ensures the portability of a premium phone that provides ultra performance and, when unfolded twice, it reveals an immersive 10-inch display that elevates productivity and cinematic viewing—offering a best-in-class mobile experience never before seen in any other form factor.

"Samsung's relentless pursuit of new possibilities continues to shape the future of mobile experiences," said TM Roh, Chief Executive Officer, President and Head of Device eXperience (DX) Division at Samsung Electronics. "Through years of innovation in foldable form factors, Galaxy Z TriFold solves one of the mobile industry's longest-standing challenges—delivering the perfect balance between portability, premium performance and productivity all in one device. Galaxy Z TriFold now expands the boundaries of what's possible for mobile work, creativity and connection."

Keychron has just expanded its line-up of analog gaming keyboards, launching three new all-aluminium Q HE series gaming keyboards with 8K polling and new TMR sensors. The new Q HE 8K series keyboards will kick off with the launch of the Keychron Q6 HE 8K, a full-size all aluminium gaming keyboard, and the Q3 HE 8K, which adopts a TKL layout, instead. The Q3 HE 8K ($229.99) and Q6 HE 8K ($239.99) will both be available on Keychron's site starting November 18, 2025, while the Keychron Q1 HE 8K, with a 75% layout, will be available from December 11. All of the new TMR keyboards are available in black and white with purple accent keys on the enter and escape keys. As the name suggests, the new Keychron Q HE 8K keyboards feature 8 kHz polling rate, but that comes at the cost of wireless connectivity. The new Q HE 8K keyboards use USB Type-C connections exclusively, although the connection mode switch typically found on Keychron keyboards has been replaced by a hardware profile selection switch.

The Keychron Q HE 8K keyboards have similar designs to previous Keychron Q HE keyboards, with the same aluminium switch plate and double-shot PBT keycaps in OSA profile. However, Keychron has swapped out the Gateron Double-Rail Magnetic switches found in its previous Hall effect and TMR keyboards with the Keychron Ultra-Fast Magnetic Lime switches, which are a lightweight (26-40 gf) linear switches with a standard orientation, making the Q HE 8K keyboards compatible with most other magnetic switches currently available. The new Q HE 8K series keyboards are powered by QMK firmware and are configurable and customizable through Keychron Launcher, a web app that is very similar to something like VIA but with a few additional features, like easy firmware updates.

THIEAUDIO, a global leader in high-fidelity in-ear monitors, proudly introduces the HYPE 4 MKII, a complete redesign of its acclaimed hybrid IEM. More than a retuning, the MKII represents a ground-up reinvention with upgraded driver architecture, new tuning methodology, and precision acoustic engineering, setting a new standard for balanced performance and musical engagement.

Completely Redesigned for Performance

Together, these components deliver cleaner transitions, enhanced resolution, and greater sonic control across the entire frequency range.

Wooting previously revealed a bunch of details about the upcoming 60HE v2 Hall effect gaming keyboard and announced the November 6 pre-order date for the updated 60HE v2, but pricing and exact shipping dates have remained a mystery until now. In a new blog post, Wooting has revealed that the orders for the aluminium Wooting 60HE v2 will start shipping as early as December 2025, while the ABS plastic case will only start shipping in April 2026. The Wooting 60HE V2 will be available as both a pre-built keyboard, with either the plastic case or an aluminium case, and as a standalone PCB module, which is compatible with the original 60HE case—for those who want to supply their own switches, keycaps, and case. It might also be reassuring to keyboard enthusiasts to know that there appears to be no price difference between the split space and traditional space bar versions of the 60HE v2. New details about the plastic case were also revealed, including the addition of an aluminium reinforcement plate in the bottom of the case, which should help structural rigidity and help dampen the keyboard's sound somewhat.

Wooting also revealed a new add-on for the plastic case to replace the somewhat divisive strap. Owners of the plastic 60HE v2 case will also get a swappable translucent silicone wing to replace the strap mount, for a bit of visual flair. Both versions of the 60HE v2 will be available in black, with an additional "Shiny Silver" colorway in the case of the aluminium case, and both come with OEM profile shine-through PBT keycaps and the new Wooting Lekker Tikken switches by default. Aside from the aluminium case and the new switches, the 60HE v2 steps up the 60HE's design by swapping out the plate for a white FR4 plate, which should improve the sound characteristics over the original steel plate. The 60HE v2 also separates the PCB and plate assembly from the case with a friction fit gasket mount, removing any direct contact between the plate and case to reduce reverberation.

Epomaker already has a comprehensive line-up of wireless mechanical, Hall-effect, and even inductive keyboards, but some of the company's more interesting launches have been in the low-profile space, with recent examples including the carbon fiber Carbon 60 mechanical keyboard. Now, though, Epomaker has officially launched the Luma40, which may turn out to be far more controversial for regular users than any previous releases. Not only does the Luma40 take the small form factor to the extreme, slashing the key count to just 47 keys—similar to the Comaker TH40 we previously reviewed—it also features an ortholinear layout, meaning the keys are not staggered, or horizontally offset from one another. The Luma40 is available on the Epomaker online store for $115.99, with a launch discount bringing the price down to $98.59. It is only available in one color, with a single switch option: Kailh White Rain low-profile switches with a full POM construction and middle-weight 50 gf actuation force.

Despite the unorthodox layout and form factor, the Luma40 uses a standard qwerty layout in its stock form, although ortholinear layouts are famous for allowing customization. The Luma40 opens up customization with the open-source VIA web app, which allows you to remap keys, create macros, and select different backlighting modes and colors. The same is true for the keycaps. With the exception of the dual 2U space bars, the Luma40's keycaps feature the LAK profile, meaning they're all interchangeable, so remapping the entire keyboard to your liking, or even testing exotic layouts like Dvorak is made easy. Those keycaps are also made of transparent PC with screen-printed legends. This will allow for full RGB shine-through using the north-facing backlighting, but it also means the keycap legends will likely not be as durable as something like double-shot PBT. Those keycaps sit atop Kailh low-profile switches mounted in a PC plate and CNC-cut aluminium case. The Luma40 has both Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz connectivity options, with a diminutive 1,450 mAh battery delivering an estimated 7 hours of battery life with the RGB at full brightness and 75 hours with no backlight. There's also the option of running it off the USB Type-C wired connection instead.

OwLab is known for its premium enthusiast DIY mechanical keyboards, like the $499 PT750, with sister company Qwertykeys bringing up the rear with midrange enthusiast DIY kits. Now, however, OwLab has announced a new sub-brand called Ticktype, which appears to fill the pre-built keyboard niche. While the new keyboard brand has only just been given a name, two keyboards that previously fell under the Qwertykeys brand, the Evo75 and Evo80, will now be sold under Ticktype. That said, Ticktype has also debuted the DP104, a new full-size wireless mechanical keyboard that takes inspiration from retro gaming—much like the QK65 MK3 we covered recently—and the custom mechanical keyboard scene, but with the benefits of a pre-built keyboard.

The Tick type DP104, aside from being a full-size mechanical keyboard with a proper num pad and an aluminium case, boasts a number of features that make it both fun to use and easy to mod for beginners just looking at their first mechanical keyboard. For starters, the DP104 has a quick-release ball-catch top case, meaning the top case releases by applying only a little pressure in the correct direction, allowing you full access to the keyboard's interior for stuff like modifications, cleaning, or changing out the gasket mounting system for something stiffer or with more give. The other neat feature is the colorful "interactive pixel display" located above the num pad. This small landscape display can be used for fun features, like the reactive fireworks mode, real-time typing mode, and an "audio reactive mode" that displays an equalizer that reacts to nearby sounds, or you can make it display keyboard status, like battery charge, OS mode, the time, and caps lock status. The DP104 also has a customizable RGB light bar and two volume control buttons just above the arrow keys.
