Introduction

The Neo98 was created precisely in response to the overwhelming demand from our community over time. While larger layouts have traditionally seen limited interest in the custom keyboard scene, now, we have made this long-held aspiration a reality.

During our design evaluation, we found that the 75% layout also aligns seamlessly with this understated yet richly detailed design language. The two layouts are designed to precisely meet the needs of different typing habits and desk setups.

To ensure consistent keyboard acoustics, we have meticulously refined the internal structure, optimizing numerous details so that each keyboard delivers the best possible sound feedback.

Appearance Design

The design is minimalist in appearance, yet every detail is meticulously engineered. The badge is crafted from mirror-polished stainless steel, with every surface meticulously ground. Like a platinum ring, it sits nested into the keyboard with quiet precision.

The side profile of the keyboard marries aesthetics with precision craftsmanship, featuring a stacked construction that creates a pronounced sense of depth and clean-beveled edges that define its sharp, structured silhouette.

Whether you prefer the compact elegance of a traditional 75% layout or the enhanced utility of a 98% layout, Neo's two latest additions ensure you'll find the perfect keyboard to match your needs.

The Neo98 and Neo75 carry forward Neo’s widely praised signature sound and superior typing feel.

We've precisely set the keyboard’s front height at 17.6mm — a carefully calibrated golden standard that maintains a visually slim and elegant appearance while providing ergonomic support for comfortable long‑term typing.

Featuring a generously sized stainless steel weight, available in both mirror PVD and spray-coated finish options.

Three Different Mounting Styles:

Poron Gasket Mount

Silicone Gasket Mount

Top Mount

Forcebreak

A forcebreak layer at the contact points between the top and bottom cases, creating a soft barrier between the metal surfaces to dampen vibration noise.

Bottom Case Acoustic Chamber

To suppress the hollow cavity resonance from the bottom case, we adopted a chamber-segmented design. This reduces vibration frequency and enhances overall acoustic performance.

Foam Kit

The Neo series, which emphasizes a foamless build, doesn’t overlook the diverse building needs of users — we still include plate foam, IXPE sheet, and case foam for flexible tuning.
