Neo65 Sonic HE+ - 65% Aluminium Hall Effect Keyboard

Custom Build Meets Pro Gaming — Now in DE-ISO Layout

Until now, you had to make a choice: heavy, rich-sounding custom keyboard or fast gaming board with magnetic switches. The Neo65 Sonic HE+ by Qwertykeys makes that choice obsolete. It has the look and feel of a boutique custom — and at the same time the response time of an esports tool. With us, you get it in a full German ISO layout: all umlauts, ß, and the proper enter key right where they belong.

Hall Effect switches with 0.01 mm sensitivity

Instead of physical contacts, Hall Effect sensors measure the change in magnetic field as a key is pressed. That means: no mechanical contacts to wear out, no debouncing, no unintended double inputs. The Owlab Nova Magnetic switches were developed specifically for the Neo65 and combine a box-style stem design for minimal wobble with PG-3 material, magnet bottom-out stems for thocky acoustics, and a 20 mm single-stage spring for a snappy, fast return.

8000 Hz polling rate, 0.125 ms latency

Custom Hall Effect sensors and a high-frequency MCU deliver a response time of just 0.125 ms at 8000 Hz polling rate — faster than your reflexes. The 0.01 mm sensitivity ensures every keystroke is registered exactly, with no false triggers or missed inputs.

Pro gaming features without software installation

The Neo65 Sonic HE+ is configured directly in your browser via the web-based NeoFlux configurator — no driver, no software, no cloud requirement. The following features are at your disposal:

• Adjustable Actuation Point: Freely adjustable from 0.1 mm (instant activation on the lightest tap) to 4.0 mm (full key travel required)
• Rapid Trigger: The key is reactivated the moment you start lifting it — perfect for fast, repeated inputs
• Rappy Snappy: Automatically detects and prioritizes the most recently pressed key — ideal for clean A/D strafes
• SOCD (Simultaneous Opposing Cardinal Directions): Smart handling of conflicting inputs
• Dynamic Keystroke (DKS): Up to 4 different actions per key at different depths
• 4 Profiles: Switch between gaming, office, and custom setups with a single keystroke

1.5 kg of solid custom build

While many Hall Effect keyboards sound and feel like plastic, the Neo65 Sonic HE+ takes a different path. The case is machined from solid CNC aluminum and reinforced with internal and external stainless steel weights to approximately 1.5 kg. The keyboard stays exactly where you need it — even in the most intense gaming sessions, no slipping, no shaking.

Silicone gasket mount with carbon fiber plate

A thoughtful mounting system makes the difference: a silicone gasket construction isolates the PCB from the case, reducing the hollow, rattly sound profile typical of Hall Effect boards. The flat, rigid carbon fiber plate prevents PCB warp and ensures every key responds identically throughout the entire session — crucial for the accuracy of the magnetic sensors.

Sound tuning at custom level

Instead of soft PE sheets, Qwertykeys uses a 0.05 mm PET pad that prevents wobble and keeps the sound crisp. Combined with case foams and carbon shims, the result is a clear, lively sound profile without hollow resonance or metallic ping — the rich bottom-out of the Nova switches gets the room it deserves.

Plug-and-play, no building required

The Neo65 Sonic HE+ arrives fully assembled and tuned. Unbox, plug in, go. The included 8K-ready USB-C cable ensures you can actually access the full polling rate.

Who is the Neo65 Sonic HE+ for?

• Competitive gamers who need every millisecond of advantage in FPS, fighting games, or rhythm games
• Custom keyboard lovers who want a Hall Effect board with the build and sound of a boutique custom
• Heavy typists who want to combine the thocky typing feel with the precision of adjustable actuation points
• Wooting alternative seekers looking for premium build quality at a fair price
