| Pros , different | Hot-swappable PCB, so switches can be changed without soldering (Tom's Guide) Double-shot PBT keycaps and Cherry MX switches (Ducky) Tom's Guide called the typing experience outstanding and the typing sound lovely Tom's Guide found the build quality great, with a weight that stays put on the desk Three foot angles and a detachable USB-C cable (Tom's Guide, Ducky) | True 8 kHz polling in Tachyon mode, with Rapid Trigger and 0.1 mm actuation steps (Wooting, WIRED) Wootility runs in the browser or as an app and was praised by both Tom's Guide and WIRED Gasket mount with a polycarbonate plate and screw-in stabilizers; Tom's Guide called the typing feel beautiful Three interchangeable feet (2.8, 6 and 10 degrees), unusual for a metal-cased board (WIRED) ABS (790 g) or zinc (2,160 g) cases, hot-swappable PCB (PCWorld) Four onboard profiles and a four-year warranty excluding the LEDs (Wooting) |
| Cons , different | Wired only, with no Bluetooth or dongle (Tom's Guide) No companion software; macros and lighting are set by key combinations (Tom's Guide, IGN Middle East) Tom's Guide noted limited macOS support and a firmware update that is available only for Windows IGN Middle East found the stabilizers needed fine-tuning for the sound to match the board's build Plain wired feature set compared with Keychron or Akko boards that add QMK/VIA (IGN Middle East) | Wired only (Tom's Guide) Non-standard 80% layout and PCB limit aftermarket parts (Tom's Guide, WIRED) PC Gamer found some chassis flex on the plastic case; PCWorld noted a rattling spacebar and uneven finish Tom's Guide and PC Gamer both noted rivals that cost less Lekker switches only, with limited switch choice (Tom's Guide) Wooting now sells an updated 80HE+ with Tikken switches and an FR4 plate |
| Research take , different | A solid-feeling wired TKL that reviewers like for typing, held back by missing wireless and software. Tom's Guide questioned its cost; choose it for the Cherry feel and keycaps, not for features. | A well-reviewed competitive 80% that Tom's Guide and WIRED rate highly for software and build. Choose it for 8 kHz and Wootility; consider the 80HE+ if you want Wooting's newer switches and plate, or another brand if you need wireless. |
