Keychron recently launched the K3 Ultra and K3 HE wireless, low-profile mechanical and TMR keyboards on Kickstarter, both featuring the same plastic, metal, and wood construction and slated for a full launch around June. However, if you're looking to get in on the low-profile action and don't mind losing some of the specialty features of the K3 HE and Ultra, Keychron has just announced the K3 Max SE, a new QMK-powered keyboard that features a nearly identical design to the K3 Ultra. Unlike the K3 Ultra and HE, the K3 Max SE is available as of the time of writing for a relatively affordable $104.99 on the Keychron store, which is $5 cheaper than the pre-order price of the K3 Ultra and $15 cheaper than the HE.

Obviously, the K3 Max SE doesn't have the same analog input features as the K3 HE, but it is nearly identical to the K3 Ultra but for one small distinction—the battery life and firmware. The K3 Max SE is a traditional QMK keyboard, like Keychron's traditional Max keyboards have long been, while the K3 Ultra is part of Keychron's move to ZMK firmware, which is known to be significantly more efficient than QMK. The end result is that, while the K3 Ultra and K3 Max SE have the same battery capacity of 1,550 mAh, the K3 Ultra is rated for 550 hours on a charge, and the K3 Max SE is only rated for 120 hours. The other measurable difference between the two is that the K3 Ultra has 8 kHz polling, where the K3 Max SE tops out at 1 kHz—not that this is particularly important on a mechanical keyboard, anyway.

Japanese company Elecom is bringing back one of the most unusual mouse designs in PC peripheral history: the M.A.P.P. (Mechanical Designers Accelerate Peripheral Products) mouse, created by Ghost in the Shell manga artist Masamune Shirow back in 2002. The reissue is limited to 3,300 units per color variant (black, white, blue), with pre-orders opening April 6 through the Elecom Direct Shop and general availability starting May 1. The original M.A.P.P. project was a collaboration between Shirow and mecha designer Hajime Katoki, and at that time it was pushing unconventional form factors while keeping ergonomics, weight balance, and grip at the center of the design. The reissue seems to stay faithful to that original vision. Elecom says that Shirow personally updated certain details, including the areas around the newly added side buttons, however, the core aesthetic remained the same.

It weighs 78 g, measures 67 × 106 × 38 mm and its functionality has been brought up to date. The mouse now supports Bluetooth connectivity, up to three device multi-pairing, and a hardware toggle for quick switching. All five buttons use silent switches, and customization is handled through Elecom's Mouse Assistant software on Windows and macOS. The optical sensor offers adjustable DPI (400, 800, 1600, 2400, and 3200), while the lithium-ion battery lasts up to 45 days of use per charge. It can be recharged via USB-C and is rated for around 100,000 charge cycles. The timing for the Elecom revival of its M.A.P.P. mouse isn't accidental as a new Ghost in the Shell anime is scheduled for July 2026. All three color variants, black, white, and blue, are priced at 12,800 yen including tax, which is roughly $85.

CRKD, the premium collectible gaming brand known for their highly popular Nitro Deck, and line of premium rhythm gaming products, announced today ATOM+, the next evolution of its collectible keychain controller, designed to deliver powerful gameplay in an ultra-compact form. Expected to begin shipping from June 2026, the ATOM+ is compatible with a wide variety of gaming platforms including Nintendo Switch 2 | 1, PC, mobile devices, tablets, and Smart TVs, bringing big features to a small package, and delivering full-fat gaming on the go.

Small enough to attach to a keychain, backpack or just about anywhere you can imagine, the ATOM+ defies convention, expanding upon the original ATOM with a host of sophisticated features including Thumbsticks for maximum gaming compatibility, and utilizing TMR (Tunnelling Magnetoresistance), technology, a next-generation magnetic sensor designed to forever eliminate Stick Drift, and provide superior precision compared to traditional mechanical Thumbsticks or Hall Effect sensors.

Lofree is no stranger to peculiar peripheral designs, with the brand having previously released devices like the Hypace wireless gaming mouse and the Lofree Flow 2, with all its ergonomic quirks. It seems as though Lofree's next release, the Hyzen keyboard, may be even more unique than even those examples. The Hyzen is a futuristic, but otherwise unassuming 65% keyboard made out of CNC-cut aluminium, but its design conceals a few nifty features and an entirely new switch design that supposedly combines the best of both mechanical and magnetic tech. The Hyzen will be a wireless keyboard with a gasket mount design, and Lofree claims that the 10,000 mAh battery can last up to 80 hours. It will launch on Kickstarter on April 23, but early bird reservations are available on the Lofree site ahead of the official launch. Kickstarter pricing plans include the tri-mode wireless version priced at $189 with a $299 claimed MSRP further down the line or a $169 wired version that will later retail for $279.

The Nexus switch is a hybrid mechanical switch, designed by Lofree in collaboration with Kailh, that features both a magnet in the stem for TMR functionality and metal contacts and pins for traditional mechanical operation. Lofree says that the new switch design, which it claims is the first of its kind, combines the tactile feedback of mechanical switches with the low latency, customizable actuation distance and analog features of TMR switches. Aside from the new switches, the keyboard also has a physical toggle that switches the number row to a function row, with the function indicated by a row of LEDs above the num row when the function row is active. The Hyzen also has a knob on the back edge for volume control and a switch to select between 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth, and wired operation. It will also be powered by a Nordic nRF54L series MCU and be capable of 8 kHz polling.

When you walk into someone's home, you can usually tell what matters to them. Some rooms show it in the colors on the wall. Others in the art they choose or the books left open on a side table. Increasingly, there is another kind of expression. It is not seen as much as it is felt. It is the presence of technology that does not draw attention to itself but transforms the room when you need it to.

This idea guided the creation of the newest generation of Denon Home wireless speakers. The Denon Home 200, 400 and 600 were designed not only to deliver exceptional sound, but to sit comfortably within the fabric of everyday life. Denon's engineering and design teams began with a simple question: What if a speaker could truly feel like part of the home?

Equipped with tri-mode connectivity, Hall Effect analog triggers, GameSir Mag-Res TMR sticks, and a swappable magnetic faceplate, this edition merges mythic aesthetics with cutting-edge engineering.

You've known us for decades for ergonomic keyboards. The ones that are built around the idea that your keyboard should fit you and not the other way around. That's still true, and we're still very much that company.

After many years of conversations (with IT managers trying to standardize gear across hundreds or thousands of desktops, with companies that need to onboard new employees fast without a tutorial on how to use a keyboard, and for individuals who are just not there yet when it comes to making the ergonomic jump), we started hearing the same thing in different ways: We love what you do, but we also need something more traditional. So we made it.

More than just a way to type, the KiiBOOM Phantom98 Lite is an upgrade for users' entire desktop experience. With its considered layout, keycaps design, premium typing feel, and seamless multi-device flow, this keyboard transforms everyday input into a daily joy, becoming the natural centerpiece of the workspace.

Thoughtful Colorways and Details
The Phantom98 Lite continues KiiBOOM's commitment to aesthetics, debuting with three themed colorways: Green Rainy Frog, Foggy Translucent, and Pink. Each curated color combination is designed to evoke a distinct atmosphere. Beyond the colorway, the textural contrast between the UV-glazed case and the PBT dye-sublimated keycaps adds depth to both the look and feel. Practicality is equally prioritized, with the magnetic nameplate discreetly storing the 2.4G receiver, ensuring style and function live in perfect harmony.

We recently visited 8BitDo at CES 2026, where we saw the Retro Wireless Receivers that enable wireless controller compatibility with retro game consoles. Now, 8BitDo has officially released both the Retro Wireless Receiver for the N64 and a modern wireless controller designed to work with a 2.4 GHz version of the same receiver. The Retro Wireless Receiver for N64 is available on Amazon and the 8BitDo eShop for $24.99, operates via BLE, and is compatible with a whole host of 8BitDo and first-party console controllers, including the Switch 64 Online, Switch Pro, and Wii U Pro controllers, seemingly any 8BitDo controller that supports BLE—like the Ultimate series and SN30 Pro series—Xbox One, Series, Elite Series controllers, and PlayStation's DualShock 4, DualSense, and DualSense Edge Controllers. The receiver also supports vibration and a built-in memory, with customization available via 8BitDo's Ultimate Software. 8BitDo also sells a mod kit to make the original N64 controller wireless, which is also compatible with the Retro Wireless Receiver.

The 8BitDo 64 2.4 GHz controller, on the other hand, is mostly just a rehash of the existing 8BitDo 64 Bluetooth controller repackaged to work with 2.4 GHz and paired with a Retro Wireless Receiver for N64 compatibility. The 64 controller uses modern controller design and ergonomics with a button layout adapted for the N64—specifically, it features large AB buttons where the right thumb stick would normally be on a game controller and a D-Pad where the usual ABXY face buttons would be. These design changes are to make the controller compatible with the Nintendo N64 console, but the internals are quite modern, featuring a Hall-effect joystick and support for Windows, via a wired connection, and the Analogue3D FPGA project's reimagining of the original N64, replete with vibration support on the latter. The 8BitDo 64 2.4 GHz controller is available on Amazon and 8BitDo's eShop for $39.99.

VANGUARD AIR 99 WIRELESS is an elegant solution that effortlessly delivers high-performance gaming needs and optimizes productivity tasks.

Epomaker recently showed off its typewriter-style Glyph mechanical keyboard at CES 2026, although there was no word on when the keyboard would launch, the exact specifications, or what the price would be. Now, the keyboard maker has officially released the Glyph keyboard in all its retro glory, alongside three other keyboards: the $119 Luma100, which we covered previously, the RT100 Pro, and the Epomaker x Aula F75 Ultra.

The Epomaker Glyph is a 75% mechanical keyboard with 83 keys, a programmable knob, a 2.79-inch full-color TFT screen, and a built-in tablet stand. The highlight of the Glyph is mostly its retro design, which is emphasized by the round, uniform-height keycaps that look a little like bottle caps. The keyboard itself is made of ABS plastic, while the keycaps are dye-sublimated PBT, and the plate is made of aluminium. The Glyph comes with either Epomaker Wisteria V2 switches, which are linear switches with a 45 gf operating force, POM+PTFE stems, PC top housings, and PA66 bottom housings. It also features 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth connectivity and an 8,000 mAh battery. The Glyph is available on Epomaker's website for $139.

Redragon has just announced two new affordable wireless gaming mice: The Taipan Pro M810, a right-handed conventional ergonomic gaming mouse, and the Impact Elite M913, an MMO mouse with 12 programmable side buttons. The Taipan Pro M810 is a fairly conventional gaming mouse shape, falling squarely within the same category as the likes of the Razer Basilisk or Logitech G502 shapes, with its left-side thumb shelf, fairly high front, and mid-hump design. The Taipan Pro has eight buttons in total, including middle click, thanks to the two shortcut keys on the left side, two buttons on the top behind the scroll wheel, and a button to the left of the left click.

Redragon markets the Taipan Pro as an FPS mouse, but it doesn't specify the mouse's weight, and it uses the PixArt PAW3311 sensor, which tops out at 12,000 DPI and 35 G acceleration, while the polling rate maxes out at 1 kHz. It uses Huano mechanical switches with a 20-million click MTBF rating, although there is no specific mention of a switch model or actuation force. The Taipan Pro features both 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth wireless connectivity, and Redragon claims it can manage up to 188 hours on a single charge with the RGB accent lighting off and 29 hours with the accent lighting on. Both the RGB lighting and the button mapping are customizable in Redragon's software suite for Windows. By far the most attractive part of the Redragon Taipan Pro 810M is its price, at $39.99 for the white version and $42.99 for the black version from the Redragon web store.

Gaming has largely been split into two camps: mouse-and-keyboard gamers and controller gamers, and while devices like the Lenovo Legion Go and the new Joy-Cons on the Nintendo Switch 2 blur those lines, the Phase project, recently shown off by a new startup called Pixelpaw Labs, is attempting to blur those lines even further. The Phase is a split game controller that combines using magnets and pogo pin connectors to become a standard PC mouse. The goal behind the project is to "bridge the gap between a mouse, a mobile gamepad, and a controller," all in one device that can be carried with you when you might do both work and play away from home. Phase has not yet launched, although Pixelpaw Labs aims to launch the project as a Kickstarter, and it is currently offering a $20 refundable pre-launch deposit, which also guarantees a 15% discount when the Phase launches on Kickstarter. Kickstarter launch pricing is slated to start at $159 or $188 with the Phasegrip accessory.

Given that this is Pixelpaw Labs's first product and the fact that there is an inherent risk to Kickstarters, it would be impertinent to not mention that there is non-zero chance that the project never makes it to production. That said, the design and concept are interesting, as are some of the workarounds that the designers behind the project came up with for some unexpected problems. For one, the Phase doesn't have a scroll wheel when the two controller halves are in mouse mode—instead, the whole left click button is a touch-sensitive surface. The mouse connects wirelessly or via USB-C while in mouse mode, and it features a 16,000 DPI sensor—likely something like the PixArt PMW 3389 or PAW 3335, both of which are commonly found in gaming mice, even if they are somewhat outdated.

One of the Epomaker keyboards we spotted at CES 2026 was the charming little Luma40, which is apparently being followed up by its polar opposite, at least in terms of the layout and form factor. The recently announced Epomaker Luma100 is a 96% wireless mechanical keyboard that packs much of the benefits of a full-size mechanical keyboard into a slim, compact form factor. The Luma100 is not yet available on the Epomaker site, but the product page has launched, giving us a good idea of what to expect from the new low-profile mechanical keyboard. The Luma100 measures in at 37.1 × 12.85 cm with a stated 23 mm front height—presumably with keycaps installed. Aside from the low-profile design, all-aluminium chassis, and the 96% layout that preserves the num pad in a more compact footprint, the Luma100 has a number of interesting features that might interest potential buyers.

The most obvious difference between the Luma40 and the Luma100 is the layout, but the Luma100 also has a gasket mount, as opposed to the tray mount of the Luma40. The Luma100 also uses much more conventional keycaps, with ABS DSA low-profile keycaps with shine-through legends to match the Luma100's north-facing RGB backlighting. Additionally, the Luma100 follows a much more conventional row-staggered layout, ditching the Luma40's ortholinear design. The switches in the Luma100 are similar to the Luma84's, though, being that they seem to be based on the Gateron Low-Profile 2.0 switch standard, although it seems as though Epomaker has commissioned a custom switch for the Luma100, since the switches shown off in a recent unboxing video are unlike other Gateron switches, featuring clear PC housings and a light green stem.

Sonos today introduced Sonos Play and Sonos Era 100 SL, two new speakers that reflect a renewed focus on strengthening the Sonos system. Designed to deliver powerful, room-filling sound, they make it easier than ever to start and expand it room by room—creating a connected listening experience that grows with you over time.

"Much of consumer tech promises innovation, yet too often delivers isolation—new devices replacing old ones instead of building on what already works," said Tom Conrad, Chief Executive Officer of Sonos. "We believe a great sound experience shouldn't reset every time you add something new. It should get better. Sonos Play and Era 100 SL are a clear expression of what Sonos does best—creating products that feel simple on the surface, but are deeply powerful because of the system behind them."

Keychron has been revamping its mainline mechanical keyboard line-up pretty consistently lately, but its latest launch, the B11 Pro, is a deviation from those designs, falling square in the mobile productivity space rather than the enthusiast mechanical keyboard sphere. The B11 Pro adapts the ergonomic 65% Alice layout seen in Keychron's K11 Max and puts it into an ultraportable, foldable keyboard with scissor switches. The folding form factor and 65% layout mean that, when folded, the B11 Pro measures in at just 196.3 × 143 mm when folded up, making it a potential option for space-constrained travelers and commuters. The Keychron B11 Pro is currently available on the Keychron online store for $64.99, although it will likely launch on Amazon at a later date.

The B11 Pro has a 65% layout, meaning there is no num pad, nor is there an F row—likely a decision made in favor of a compact physical footprint—although there is a dedicated compact arrow cluster, which should make the adjustment to the smaller layout somewhat easier. It also uses Keychron's scissor switch mechanism and concave keycaps, meaning it should feel something akin to a laptop keyboard to type on. Keychron does not specify, but none of the other keyboards in the B Pro series feature NKRO, so it's safe to assume neither does the B11 Pro. Interestingly, Keychron has opted for a soft-touch material on the back of the B11 Pro, and the whole keyboard weighs in at just 258 g. The B11 Pro also features both 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth 5.3, and the keyboard supposedly gets around 135 hours on a single charge from a 250 mAh battery. There's also a nifty sensor that detects when the keyboard is closed—both a convenience and battery-saving feature. Keychron has also conveniently labelled the relevant modifier keycaps with both macOS and Windows legends, and the key maps themselves can be changed in Keychron Launcher, much like the brand's mechanical keyboard line-up.

Back at CES 2026, we got a brief look at Keychron's resin and concrete K2 HE Special Edition wireless TMR keyboards, but the company has officially launched both the Concrete Edition and Resin Edition K2 HE keyboards, with both keyboards launching via Keychron's direct-to-consumer online store for $199.99. Both keyboards are based on the K2 HE, which has been one of Keychron's more popular models since it launched, and there isn't much by way of technical improvements over the original K2 HE aside from the design update. The resin edition features a smoky translucent case with an almost marbled aesthetic that shifts in the light, while the concrete edition has a simpler brutalist design, with color-matched keycaps and a solid gray aesthetic.

Both the K2 HE Concrete and Resin Editions are based on the same MCU, TMR sensor, and switch architectures as the original K2 HE, meaning they use the same Gateron Double-Rail Magnetic Nebula switches as the original—with 4 mm total travel and enabling all the typical analog features and online customization via Keychron Launcher—and feature the same 1 kHz polling rate and wireless connectivity via Bluetooth 5.3 and 2.4 GHz. It also goes without saying that both keyboards have the same 75% layout as the previous K2 HE keyboards. The material changes have also resulted in different dimensions. The K2 HE Resin Edition measures 321.13 × 131.3 mm, with a 27.06 mm listed front height and 4° typing angle, while the Concrete Edition comes in at 322.13 × 132.13 mm with a 27.39 mm front height and 4° typing angle. Both also use an aluminium switch plate and have a tray-mount design.
