Packaging and Accessories


Cooler Master operates a web shop in the USA. However, this sample came from a marketing hub, so we begin with a look at the product packaging. We see a white and purple color scheme adopted for the box here, which is in contrast to the black and purple for the MK750 from before. On the front is the company logo and product name along with a large render of the keyboard and some of its salient features, including the switch type employed. We see more renders, specs, and features, even in multiple languages, on the back and sides. The box itself is smaller than average, playing to the whole slim, low-profile nature of the keyboard inside. There are seals and double flaps on the sides to help keep the contents inside in place.


As it turns out, Cooler Master is employing a two-piece packaging with a plain cardboard box inside. There are circular cutouts on the sides to help remove it from the outer wrap, and more double flaps are revealed here. Cooler Master seems to be in love with the Russian doll concept as opening this box reveals even more packaging for the keyboard and accessories alike. The keyboard is packed snugly with cardboard all over, and that is even before we get to the velvet fabric drawstring carrying pouch.


The accessories are found underneath the keyboard, with a cutout to accommodate yet another box. We have a multi-language quick start guide that goes over the secondary functions pre-programmed on to the keyboard, including media and backlighting controls. The box itself contains the keyboard cable and a keycap puller, which complete the accessories that comes with the SK630.


The cable is detachable, 1.8 m long, braided in black, and has a male USB Type-C connector on one end and a male USB Type-A connector on the other. This leads us to believe the keyboard employs USB Type-C for connectivity, which is nice to see in this Type-C adopting world as a whole, and the connectors are gold-plated to add resistance against metal oxidation. The keycap puller is a metal wire-style puller, which is also my preferred version as it is easier to use and doesn't risk scratching the sides of keycaps.
