The wired 65% kit
A wired aluminum 65% barebone kit with gasket mount, a clear polycarbonate plate and VIA. The plainer, cheaper sibling of the wireless M7W.

Our take, based on research
A straightforward aluminum 65% kit for VIA users. Evidence is limited to the maker's page and a review of its Alice sibling.
Overview
The M7 is MonsGeek's standard-layout 65% kit: 68 keys, a CNC aluminum case, gasket mount, a transparent polycarbonate plate, Poron plate foam, extra case foam, 5-pin hot-swap sockets and a south-facing PCB. It ships with plate-mounted stabilizers fitted plus a spare set of screw-in stabilizers. It is wired and uses VIA; MonsGeek's page says QMK certification was still in progress and the source code would follow. Switches and keycaps are not included.
No standalone review of the M7 was found. The closest independent evidence is ThePhonograph's review of the M6, which shares the same aluminum gasket construction, polycarbonate plate and foam stack, and rated that build very highly. Treat the M7's sound and feel as likely similar but unverified.
The M7W is the same shape with Bluetooth and 2.4GHz, a battery and MonsGeek's own driver rather than VIA. The M7 is the one for VIA users who do not need wireless.
