This module could be replaced with a color LCD, knobs, two-keys, and badges. Experience your Zoom98 your way! The knobs are also compatible with the Zoom65/75/Pad series. <br> </li> </ul> <li><strong>Gasket-mount:</strong></li> <ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">The Zoom98 uses a gasket isolation mount structure for a soft, bouncy, and pleasant typing experience that won't fatigue your fingers during extended use. Gasket mount keyboards also sound better and distribute pressure more evenly throughout the board compared to the typical off-the-rack tray mount keyboards. </span></li> </ul> <li> <strong><span data-mce-fragment="1">Tri-mode PCB with Per-key RGB: </span><span></span></strong> <ul> <li> <meta charset="utf-8"> <span data-mce-fragment="1">The Zoom98</span><span data-mce-fragment="1"> is available with either a Tri-mode flex</span><span data-mce-fragment="1">-cut or Tri-mode non</span><span data-mce-fragment="1">-flex cut</span><span data-mce-fragment="1"> PCB with daughterboard and per</span><span data-mce-fragment="1">-key RGB! </span>Use your Zoom98 with your PC, laptop, tablet or even your phone - all without any wires t<span data-mce-fragment="1">hanks to Bluetooth 5.0 and 2.4GHz support</span>. You can also use the keyboard in wired mode if that's what you prefer!</li> </ul> </li> <li><strong>Hot-swappable:</strong></li> <ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">The Zoom98 PCB features hot-swap sockets which allows you to easily swap your switches, no soldering required! Changing switches is a breeze, you can go from linears to tactiles in a matter of minutes, all on the same keyboard!</span></li> </ul> <li><strong>WS Stabilizer V3.1:</strong></li> <ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">The Zoom98 features new stabilizers with a 9+1 configuration, 9x2U+1x 6.25U, and supports splitting. This new version of the stabilizers follows the original Zoom98 silicone stabilizers, and is changed from the original pure black to glitter black. Additionally, they're lightly factory-lubed and ready to go from the box. </span></li> </ul> <li><strong>Multi-layout:</strong></li> <ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">Unlike traditional keyboards, you're not stuck with just one layout on the Zoom98! Change things up every now and then with split 6.25U spacebar, backspace, left/right shift! You can also switch between normal and stepped caps lock or ANSI and ISO enter.</span></li> </ul> <li><strong>Included Foam:</strong></li> <ul> <li>The Zoom98 comes with an array of foams in the kit for those who like a dampened, refined sound. <meta charset="utf-8"> <span data-mce-fragment="1">PCB and Bottom Case are made of lighter PORON material with dense foam pores. To reduce resonance, many tests were done on the foaming material this time. Every minor detail matters a lot, with the current poron, the sound is more concentrated and is deeper than with normal dampeners.</span> </li> </ul> <li><strong>Special Edition Designs<span style="color: #ff2a00;"> </span></strong></li> <ul> <li>The Zoom98 x Cosmic Odyssey showcases intricate engravings throughout the board.</li> </ul> </ul> <ul> <ul></ul> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>Keyboard Specifications:</strong></p> <ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">Gasket mount design</span></li> <li> <strong>Layout:</strong> 98%</li> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1"><strong>Typing angle:</strong> 7.7° </span></li> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1"><strong>Front height:</strong> 22 mm </span></li> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1"><strong>Top case material:</strong> Aluminum </span></li> <ul> <li>Cosmic Odyssey: Black Anodized with engraving and infill design</li> </ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1"><strong>Bottom case material: </strong>Aluminum</span></li> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1"><strong>Weight material:</strong> Black Anodized Aluminum </span></li> <li> <strong>Chamfer:</strong> Polished silver chamfers </li> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1"><strong>Default plate:</strong> Polycarbonate</span></li> <li> <strong><strong>PCB Specifications:</strong></strong> <ul> <li>1.2mm thickness with Ai03 daughterboard</li> <li><strong>PCB options:</strong></li> <ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">Tri-mode Flex Cut Hotswap RGB PCB</span></li> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">Tri-mode Non-Flex Cut Hotswap RGB PCB</span></li> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">Wired Non-flex Cut Hotswap PCB</span></li> </ul> <li><strong>Tri-Mode:</strong></li> <ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">Per-key RGB</span></li> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">Bluetooth PCB polling rate: 125hz</span></li> <li>2.4GHz polling rate: 1000hz</li> <li>Wired polling rate: 1000hz</li> <li>VIA compatible</li> </ul> <ul></ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1"><strong>Connection methods:</strong> </span></li> <ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">Tri-mode: Wired/Bluetooth/2.4G</span></li> </ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1"><strong>VIA/QMK Support:</strong> </span></li> <ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">Tri-mode PCB: Supports VIA</span></li> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1">Wired PCB: Supports QMK/VIA</span></li> </ul> <li><span data-mce-fragment="1"><strong>Supported <meta charset="utf-8">layout:</strong> Split spacebars, back space, stepped caps lock, left shift, right shift, ISO &amp; ANSI enter</span></li> </ul> </li> <li><strong>Weight:</strong></li> <ul> <li> <strong>EE/SE with Alu weight:</strong> 2.9kg<br> </li> <li> <strong>EE with SS weight:</strong> 3.3kg<br> </li> <li> <strong>SE with SS weight:</strong> 3.41kg<br> </li> <li> <strong>Internal SS weight (optional addon):</strong> .471kg</li> </ul> <li> <strong>Dimensions:</strong><span> </span>323.62 x 148.57 x 42.05 (mm)</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>What's in the box? </strong></p> <ul> <li>Aluminum top &amp; bottom case<br> </li> <li>External custom weight<br> </li> <li>PCB - Choice of Tri-Mode with flex cuts or Tri-Mode without flex cuts<br> </li> <li>2.4G USB Receiver<br> </li> <li>Badge module with custom badge<span data-mce-fragment="1"> </span><br> </li> <li>Daughterboard and JST Cable<br> </li> <li>Ribbon Cables (2)<br> </li> <li>Poron dampener kit<br> </li> <li>PC Plate<br> </li> <li>WS 3.1 Stabilizers (9x2u + 1x 6.25u)<br> </li> <li>Li-ion Battery (2) - 2250 mAh<br> </li> <li>Coiled USB-C Cable<br> </li> <li>Silicone Feet<br> </li> <li>Screws and installation hardware</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>Please note: </strong></p> <ul> <li>The Tri-mode version defaults with the screen module.
