Neo75, Neo65, Neo80 and Neo98: Neo keyboards by QwertyKeys

The Neo series by QwertyKeys is a family of aluminium keyboards in several sizes. Here's what each model offers.

Sizes and variants

The Neo65 comes as Core Plus, as CU and as Sonic HE+ with Hall Effect switches. The Neo75 includes kit, CU and prebuilt, the Neo98 kit and prebuilt. Then there's the Neo80 CU (80%) and the Alice keyboard Neo Ergo with 5° tenting at an 8° typing angle. Neo75 and Neo98 kits are ISO-DE only, the prebuilts come in ISO-DE or ANSI, and Core Plus and the CU models are multilayout boards.

Mounting and sound

Neo75 and Neo98 include a silicone gasket and top mount, plus an acoustic chamber with forcebreak pads and an optional foam kit. The Neo65 Core Plus relies on PCB gasket or O-ring and its own sound chamber instead of foam; foam is still included. The Neo80 CU lets you choose between Poron or silicone gasket and top mount. More on the difference in our guide gasket mount and sound.

Wireless, battery and software

Except for the Neo65 Sonic HE+, all Neo boards are tri-mode with USB-C, 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth. Neo75, Neo98, Neo80 CU and Neo Ergo have two 2200 mAh batteries. The Sonic HE+ is wired only and reaches 8000 Hz; it is configured with NeoFlux. What rapid trigger does is covered in our guide Hall Effect and rapid trigger.

Kit or prebuilt?

We ship barebones with stabilizers; you add switches and keycaps. On prebuilts they're already installed; the Neo75 and Neo98 prebuilts come with Owlab London Fog V2 switches from the factory. The prebuilts are hot-swap, so you can change switches without soldering – see hot-swap keyboard. In-stock items ship from Germany within one business day.
