Endorfy may sound like a new brand but it is in fact the unification of two European mainstays—SilentiumPC and SPC Gear—which have been around for over 15 years now. SPC Gear was dedicated to peripherals, with TechPowerUp having covered some of its mice and headsets before. I suppose it was only apt for a keyboard to make the rounds here and today we do so with the all-new Endorfy Thock TKL Wireless kindly provided by the company for review.
The Endorfy Thock TKL is a wireless keyboard to the point of having "Wireless" in the product name itself! It is part of the brand's new Thock series of keyboards that come in various form factors including 60%, 75%, TKL (tenkeyless), and full size. It allows for end users to choose the keyboard size they are most comfortable with while having the same general feature set across the board, including hybrid wireless connectivity and hot-swappable switches, although note that the 75% and full size versions do get a dedicated volume knob. As such, this review should be a decent representation of the other Endorfy Thock keyboards too and we begin our coverage with a look at the product specifications in the table below.

Packaging and Accessories
Packaging for the Endorfy Thock TKL Wireless keyboard is fairly busy with the brand's use of blue markerstyle "editing" seemingly extending from the product page to the box too. On the front is the company logo and product name to go with a large render of the keyboard all lit up to display the RGB lighting feature. Other salient features are listed here too, with technical specifications on the back in multiple languages along with a useful list of contents inside the box. There are two seals and double flaps on the side helping keep these items in place on their way to you and opening the box shows the keyboard right away inside a foam wrap and surrounded by more cardboard for added protection.
Underneath the keyboard is where you will find the various accessories including paperwork in the form of a multi-language user manual (online copy here). We also get a metal switch remover tool as well as the expected detachable USB Type-A to Type-C cable.
