Kisnt KN85 Wireless Mechanical Keyboard, 75% Layout, Bluetooth/2.4GHz/USB-C, Custom RGB Backlit, Hot-Swappable Linear Switch, Creamy Sound for Gaming/Typing (Textured Black)

Chances are, you've found this keyboard after reading a number of Reddit threads or watching a review or 2 on Youtube, and I can confirm they're all very correct to recommend this keyboard. It's kind of obvious that it's not trying to be high-end, as evidenced by the all plastic build, basic and other creature-comforts that are left out, like volume knobs and little near-useless LED screens, but it is still a solid, well built keyboard with a decent-enough feature set. But, it's a keyboard, so if we're being real, its the tactile feel of typing on this thing along with it's really nice, satisfying "creamy" sound (at least that's what I've heard it called, though I still don't quite get why) that makes you want mechanical keyboard like this and this one does the thing real well while also looking pretty dang nice at the same time (I got the gray gradient version with side-printed keycaps. The battery life using the included USB 2.4G wireless dongle is exceptionally good and it also has RGB backlighting with 20 preprogrammed lighting modes, if you're into that thing, but I've got it set to a static color and it looks good enough for me. All of that at this price point makes this a really, really, really good option and one that I can absolutely recommend.

Amazing keyboard for the price. Could easily be $90+. Creamy thocky yet not too loud sound, I use in a cube with no complaints. Heavy and sturdy. Great feeling key caps. BT and Dongle work perfect on windows, I have it set to 3 computers, instant switching. 2 leg sizes for adjustable slant. Software download isn't easy/ seems sketch but worked for me no issues, no virus. Cool lights, lots of customization if you're into that. Retro color - gray/green, linear switches.

Great board especially at this price point. This really raises the bar for entry level products and makes it much more accessible. This thing will impress most seasoned enthusiast. I could see this thing attaining a similar status to the Aula F75. You get really good acoustics, great switches (lubed BSUN Purples), gasket mounting AND hotswap. I've been typing on it for a few days and the sound tests you see online are very accurate, board sounds very creamy and poppy, which makes for a very satisfying typing experience. The RGB on this board is really bright and has some cool preset animations. Definitely NOT office friendly, I took this thing to the office one day and had to swap it for a normal keyboard because it is quite loud. I enjoy the sound but I don't think my coworkers did. lol Unfortunately I did notice that the space bar seems to make a really loud thunk which doesn't match the sound of the rest of the board, but you can fix this pretty easily with a rubber O-Ring or some foam inside the space bar. And sadly I did not get any spare keycaps with my order, as I've seen other buyers receive in their reviews :( Overall though, really good board and significantly raises the bar for entry level products. This thing will outperform boards that cost twice the price. I am very happy with my purchase and will be buying one for my gf too

Best at this price points, I ordered multiple keyboards at the same time but this one was far better than others. Sound, feel, features are there. keycaps are not shine through. I use it with cable but dongle and direct bluetooth are available. Very plastic but feels more solid than the others.

I work in IT and do a lot of typing throughout my days. The keys feel great to type on and they have a nice snappy sound. Cool aesthetics; I really enjoy the different RGB options. Versitle connectivity options with USB, BT, and wireless USB. The battery life is reasonably long, and I've had no issues with it while working a full day at my desk. One thing I wish it had is a scroll wheel or knob for volume control. I think that would make it perfect. Note: It can sound louder than expected. If you have sleeping family around, they may hear you typing. Great value for the price. Wish there were more color options. Now I want a white mouse to match the retro beige keyboard. Would be interesting if Kinst got into mice.

I'm typing this review on my Kisnt KN85 and I couldn't be happier! It's the best keyboard I've owned, and by some margin. It is able to be connected to 3 devices, at any given time, and has 3 options for pairing - Bluetooth, USB Bluetooth (included), and USB cable (included). The keys are durable, smooth, and creamy - no thocking here! I prefer a smaller keyboard layout, and the KN85's 80% is perfect for my home office. Typing is ultra-responsive, even on Bluetooth mode! The board is easy to clean with a standard air dusting device and wipes-down easily. The keys are swappable, but I have kept the OEM setup as the colors are fantastic. If there is any downside, it is a very heavy device, however I think this is a testament to the KN85's build quality, so no drop in stars from me! I highly recommend the Kisnt KN85.

This is my first mechanical keyboard and I’m really satisfied!!! I spent MONTHS researching on TikTok and Amazon for the best budget friendly mechanical keyboard and this was the best one. This keyboard is super slick, aesthetically pleasing, comfortable and swappable. It’s impecable in its design and super sturdy. The lighting RGB gives an elevated touch. You feel like you spent $100 in this keyboard when you only spent $42. It’s AMAZING. It is compatible with windows and MAC systems which I truly appreciate. (It also connects via Bluetooth and USB- not shown in the photo because mine was plugged- it also comes with a usb C to usb A cable to charge and use.) It comes with a very sturdy and stabilized back plate and it does not move at all. The sound? So pleasing. I thought it would be super loud in my open office and it isn’t. You want to enter the mechanical keyboard trending wave without spending so much? THIS IS YOUR KEYBOARD. I customized mine with Womier keycaps and it looks so pleasant!!

I'm shocked at the quality of this keyboard for the price. The main case is plastic but a is very good quality plastic. Obviously, it's not going to be aluminum at this price. The quality of the keycaps is also excellent. They are the more premium PBT plastic rather than the cheaper ABS plastic and they feel great. It even has more features than my other higher end mechanical keyboard as this one not only has wired USB (obviously), but also 2.4 Ghz dongle (which secures nicely in a little cutout of the bottom of the keyboard and held in magnetically), and a whooping 3 Bluetooth channels so you can pair this keyboard with many different devices at the same time. I love the layout as well. It's a little smaller than a TKL layout keyboard, but without any compromises. Typically, I don't like 75% or less because you lose too many useful keys or they have them in a weird place, but this keyboard's layout is perfectly done. You still have all of your Home, End, PgUp, PgDn, Insert, Delete, and Print Screen and Pause/Break keys. The only key missing is the Scroll Lock key which is never used anyway so this is perfect. It has nice RGB that lights up under and around the keys. Also comes with some extra switches and even a decent keycap and switch puller tool. Even comes a thin, cheap, plastic dust cover which I appreciate. My only complaint whatsoever about this keyboard is that I'm not too crazy about the switches, but that's really a personal preference thing. They're certainly not terrible and I can definitely see other people with different preferences liking these, as actually a lot of other reviewers did really like the switches. But I'll probably be swapping them out, which is another great thing about this keyboard is that they are hot swappable. For those wondering about the sound - the stock keyboard is clacky rather than thocky.

El teclado superó mis expectativas en lo esencial: sonido “thock” muy placentero, pulsaciones firmes y tres modos de conexión que funcionan sin problema. La construcción se siente sólida; el plástico es grueso y limpio al tacto, de mejor calidad que en otros modelos de su rango. Puntos a favor: Excelente sensación y respuesta lineal. Sonido grave-cremoso desde fábrica, sin necesidad de mods. Muy buen valor por el precio: se acerca a prestaciones “custom” de gamas más altas. Puntos a mejorar: El software de administración fue inútil en dos PC. La página es confusa, y aunque el teclado fue reconocido, no ofrecía opciones reales de configuración. La parte trasera utiliza un plástico más sencillo, y las gomas antideslizantes están pegadas con cinta doble faz que comenzó a despegarse desde el primer día. Me preocupa que se pierdan o necesiten ser reemplazadas pronto. No incluye numpad: ideal para gaming y escritura, pero puede ser limitante para quienes usan mucho la entrada numérica. Conclusión: Una excelente puerta de entrada al mundo “custom” por su sonido, tacto y conectividad, siempre que no dependas del software ni necesites un teclado completo. Nota aparte (no influye en la calificación del producto): el rastreo tardó cuatro días en actualizarse; el paquete llegó sin daños, pero el proceso logístico, la comunicación y el profesionalismo por parte del vendedor pueden mejorar.

Excellent Product

Honestly, I am absolutely blown away with the quality of this kisnt KN85, it's hands down the best keyboard I have ever owned. First of all, the sound quality of the key click is insane, this thing is so thocky with the bsun switches, PBT double shot key caps, gasket mounts and multiple layers of dampening foam/silicone, genuinely such a pleasure to type with. It is even hot-swappable if you want to change or upgrade your switches. The battery life is amazing, first use never charged out of the box lasted over a full week of heavy daily use. I find it very hard to find any fault with this keyboard whatsoever. One note is that the LED's are south-facing, so shine-through backlit keycaps won't work, I like double-shot caps for the thock, so this doesn't bother me one bit. But seriously, I have never been so happy to be typing at my desk. It has changed my whole experience. I watch reviews of £200-£500 keyboards, and I still think this is better. All I will say is get it fast, as prices are constantly rising due to demand.

looks and feels amazing, setup was easy and battery is lasting along time which is great. but the sound of the keyboard is so creamy, it really does sound like a premium keyboard. I also love the beige color scheme its very clean yet retro and the letters are bolded and of course its not a lousy 60% so you can enjoy all the key functions without having to press FN all the time

Awesome keyboard that punches above its weight. Stock switches are louder than I'd like, but hey it's a custom keyboard, so just swap them out easily for anything you like. For the price it's great keyboard. ONLY major issue is I like separate numpad controllers (I put these on the right of my mouse so it's quicker) but Kisnt only make these seperate numpads for the two other colour schemes that exist. The beige and green scheme is missing.
