Packaging and Accessories
Varmilo has gone with simpler packaging designs lately, especially for keyboard lines which consist of multiple themed iterations on a base keyboard structure. With the Muse65, we get a pastel green cardboard box with the brand logo and product description on the front—note how this is being marketed as a gaming keyboard—and contact information on the back. A sticker on the side confirms the exact configuration inside, with this unit having the Aurora theme and using the Gateron Magnetic White switches. Lift off the thick lid to reveal foam lining and even more foam all around the keyboard for added protection, in addition to a wax paper wrap and hard plastic dust cover.
The included accessories are found either in a separate marked cardboard box or underneath the keyboard, as with the multi-language user manual (

We also get the expected USB Type-A to Type-C cable, in black and not necessarily custom-made to match the keyboard I have, as well as a combination metal wire keycap puller and switch remover tool—both look and feel nice though and should do the job well. That's it for the unboxing experience, no spare keycaps or spare switches here unlike with most other Varmilo keyboards we've covered before.
