The media could not be loaded. TLDR: Buy it - attached images of the software which you need to download from epomakers website. Has on board memory and the star arrow 40g switches sound amazing, the video doesn't really do it justice. Can adjust RGB without the software. Battery life is amazing.I spent WAY too much time researching keyboards for a lot longer than I would like to admit to make my choice. I was going to go for a DROP keyboard but that goes for $200+. Things that I wanted in a keyboard were~Thocky switches or at least the ability to swap with other switches. I was worried 40G switches would be too light but I've gotten used to it.... These switches sound so creamy and thocky and people compliment me on my keyboard sound every time someone new comes around and hears it. The PBT keycaps are starting to show some shine on them especially on the WASD and shift key after 4 months of daily use.~RGB!!! I was looking for a board with north facing LEDs for compatibility down the road with shine through keycaps but this board has south facing. I have a monitor light so not using shine through keycaps hasn't really bothered me but it's something you might want to consider if you care about that.~Wireless! I switch between my main gaming PC , my steam deck, my living room PC and of course my bedroom PC. Having the ability to have multiple connections and methods of connecting was paramount for me. The battery on this thing is amazing I think its like 8000mah which I have yet to run out because I mostly plug it in when I'm at my desk. The storage spot in the back for the dongle is also a nice touch.~Software that was lightweight and not resource heavy (I'm talking to you Razer, Corsair) because who wants to see they are dedicating a whole GB and 10% of their CPU to have RGB on a keyboard. Now I wish this board supported VIA but small price to pay for everything else this board provides. The software is pretty basic but there's a good amount of customization you can still do. The board does have onboard memory so you don't need to keep the software open to save your macros or RGB settings. Love this! I did have to go to Epomakers website to find the driver for the software as the link in the instructions didn't work.~I need my numpad - I do spreadsheets and invoices and I am so used to having a numpad I had to keep it. Now when I'm not working I am playing FPS games and I can't tell you how many times I've been yelled at a teammate while playing hardcore COD or Escape from Tarkov and I hit my old keyboard with my mouse and accidentally shoot lol. This keyboard is smaller than my old keyboard as you can see and I got used to it real quick.~I didn't want to lose my delete key, page up, page down, and home keys...This is something I notice some other companies get rid of when they try to make a more compact board. I was able to use the software to create a screenshot macro out of the top right button that is programmed for opening the calculator by default if I remember correctly.~I REALLY wanted a space between my arrow keys and my numpad - the boards with all the keys smashed together looked like a nightmare for having to do work on so the layout of this board worked great for me.~The scroll wheel has satisfying clicks as your turn it but the rotary wheel itself is plastic and looks cheap but I paid like $65 for this board so I really don't mind.So should you buy this board? Absolutely.

It's a great keyboard, with excellent sound, feel and reliability. I use my keyboards constantly (such as right now) and these Aulas just do a great job. Plus I just love the sound and the mechanical feel. Customization, performance, look, and feel where my priorities when shopping for a keyboard, and this one over-delivered, IMO. Also, I love that the company includes extra switches and a pullers, etc. I have now purchased three and will always look to Aula first in the future. This, despite the fact that I really don't like the software that much.

Picked this up about a month ago. Swapped the entire set of switches today for some Akko v3 Panda Silent Tactile switches, also here on Amazon. Installed them with some o-rings and really got to see some of the gaskets and dampening going on inside. It's built well, but not overpriced. It is plastic, after all. It will definitely flex a bit if you twist it. That said - it's thicc. Stout. For what it is anyway. Here you get a fantastic base. There is plenty of dampening going on internally and you feel it when you lift the board. The layout takes some minor adapting, for me the biggest issue was the shortened shift key, but I managed to clear that up in a couple days (I'd accidentally UpArrow instead of Right-Shift). As for everything else, it's worked flawlessly. The device was recognized out of the box with no drivers installed on two different Windows hosts. Once I snagged the drivers, I was able to remap things like PgDn and PgUp to End and Home respectively, as I never use PgUp/Dn, personally. 2 clicks, and a Save later, I was all set. You can change things like the 'OS-mode' you're in with the hotkeys included on the card in the box. Fn+Shift for example will change a small light bar's color between Esc and F1, and continuing to cycle will turn it off entirely. Same with the backlighting, as far as colors, patterns, static colors, and off entirely. Fn and ArrowUp/Down adjust brightness, for example. The volume dial feels light to twist, but has a satisfying, light, and tick for each rotational input, and can be depressed inward to mute, requiring a little more force than anticipated - a nice surprise, as to avoid any accidental mutes.There are two levels of feet for elevation on the back in the rear. It's gasket mounted, with flex-cuts in the gaskets for added flex, but it doesn't feel 'mushy' by ANY means necessary.Stock (at least with the linear Leobog 'Nimbus' switches), the board is quite thocky and creamy sounding, without being overbearingly loud. This could get annoying to some after an extended period in a shared space, but I found it to be a rather pleasant tone, and quite muted. It doesn't sound tinny or overly clacky, and in no way compared to a Blue switch. I could word-vomit a description, but let your own ears be the judge, there are plenty of videos and sound reviews.I could go on, but pick this up for 80 bucks, throw another 50 or so at switches and o-rings into it of whatever flavor you're accustomed to, and you've got yourself a comfortable, affordable, do-it-all keeb.

I really like the feel of this keyboard—it sounds super creamy right out of the box. I wasn’t a huge fan of the stock keycaps, and the switches felt a bit stiff, so I lubed them myself and now they feel excellent. The software is simple and easy to use. The battery life is solid, though I mostly use it wired. Whether you use it as-is or plan to mod it, this is a great keyboard to pick up.

This mechanical keyboard is an absolute joy to use! The keys have a satisfying tactile feel with a smooth, responsive click that makes typing effortless. Whether I’m working or gaming, the performance is top-notch—fast, accurate, and super comfortable for long sessions.The build quality is excellent, with a sturdy frame and durable keycaps that feel premium. The RGB lighting is vibrant and customizable, adding a fun touch without being overwhelming. Plus, the anti-ghosting and fast response time make it perfect for gaming.Overall, this keyboard is a fantastic value for the price. If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality mechanical keyboard, I highly recommend this one!
