The AQIRYS brand has been growing from strength to strength and has become a viable option for Europeans who want a taste of what the Asian keyboard market can offer, but can't bother with the hassles of shipment and potential customer service issues afterward. This is the third AQIRYS keyboard we've seen so far and arguably is the most impressive in its feature set. The hybrid wireless connectivity will be nice for those wanting a 75% form factor keyboard to use wired or wirelessly, and the large 8000 mAh battery capacity makes for a meaningful wireless experience even with the more stable, lower latency 2.4 GHz mode. We also get a decent implementation of the gasket mount here with thick silicone gaskets and plenty of dampening on top of pre-lubed stabilizers and silent switches to where this is one of the quieter keyboards on the market and can attract many just because of this. Coming in at €100 will also please Europeans no doubt, but be aware that it's still hard to purchase AQIRYS products outside of Europe.

The Libertas isn't a perfect keyboard though. I strongly urge AQIRYS to improve its software experience, which of course means working with the OEM to get a better optimized program. I am not a fan of how the different AQIRYS keyboards can have inconsistent user experiences either, so that's another place where the brand can improve. Here we end up with multicolored keycaps which are opaque so the LEDs on board end up doing accent lighting only. The chassis is translucent though, so it does try to make the most of what you have on offer. There's also the part where AQIRYS provides you some clicky switches in the box to try out, but there is no option to actually purchase the keyboard with anything other than the silent linear switches, which may not be to everyone's preference. In fact, I dare say the keyboard aesthetic can be too much for some, but AQIRYS does provide replacement keycaps to help tone things down in that regard. I also appreciated the dedicated volume control knob with two included knob covers to better suit the keycaps chosen. As it stands, I do think the Libertas does enough to merit a recommendation for those who can purchase it and are in the market for a silent wireless mechanical keyboard.
