| Cons , different | Magnetic switches only; the TMR version is the one that accepts mechanical switches Web software is described as functional but rough on the TMR sibling (HLPlanet) Up to 1.83 kg, so not a portable board No VIA; configuration is through MonsGeek's own driver Little independent coverage, so long-term reliability is unknown | Not hot-swappable, so the switches are fixed (maker, Hall Effect Products) Wired only Does not support mechanical switches (maker) Hall sensors may need recalibrating after shipping (maker) Only one review found, which disagrees with the maker on keycap material |
| Research take , different | A strong spec sheet for the money in a heavy metal 75%, backed by the maker and a review of the TMR sibling. Pick the TMR if you want to use mechanical switches on some keys. | A low-cost wired magnetic 75% whose key drawback is that the switches are fixed. Based on the maker's specs and a single review. |
