Keydous enters the TechPowerUp review database with its new NJ81 75% keyboard. It offers more pre-built customization options than most keyboards on the market, including brass plates and first-party premium switches, and also features an integrated OLED display on top of hybrid wireless connectivity modes!

Loss of END key is something that everyone needs to give thought before pulling the trigger on this thing. I had a similar (same?) layout keyboard before and I realized how much I relied on that key.

Also, I might have missed in the review but I had a bad luck with wireless USB with these types of keyboards. By these types I mean 1) Multi-mode wireless (USB+BT), and 2) RGB. There is something going on with the two, perhaps power-related, and I often lost wireless USB signal. BT seems much more reliable but sadly it does not work in BIOS.

Otherwise an excellent review!

I had no issues with either of the two wireless modes in daily use.

I have really enjoyed the keyboard reviews. I just finished my GMMK full size keyboard. I used Kailh Box-white switches. The GMMK frame was only 59 bucks. I might pull the trigger on a GMMK 2 60%.
