Epomaker TH80 V2 PRO

$77.99

When I think of a gaming keyboard, I think of bright RGB backlighting, customisable features and responsive keys for quick reactions. The Epomaker TH80 V2 Pro features all of this, alongside a customisable mini screen, making it a perfect gaming keyboard to transform any desk into an immersive gaming hub!

Straight out of the box, the Epomaker TH80 V2 Pro keyboard features a cushioned gasket structure that provides the keyboard with a comfortable feel designed for long hours of play and productive work. The outer shell feels super durable, made from a sturdy, thick plastic which offers the whole thing a lovely weighty feel. Within this sturdy base sit the 78 keys, which have a cherry profile and sit upon Epomaker’s Creamy Jade Switches. These offer a lovely responsive feel to the keys that makes every key press satisfying.

The gasket features Epomaker’s signature 5-layer gasket design featuring PORON, IXPE, EPDM, silicone and PET pads, which enhance the overall sound of the keyboard, ensuring every key click sounds just as good as it feels. Personally, I found the typing feel and sound super lovely right out of the box; however, should you want a slightly different feel, every key is completely hot-swappable. This means you can fully customise the keys to your preferences. However, the personalisation doesn’t end there, as the entire keyboard can also be remapped to input custom shortcuts to help simplify repetitive key combinations to improve gaming responsiveness, or help save time in complex workflows.

One of the cool things about the TH80 V2 PRO is that it has a nifty little screen in the bottom right-hand corner. The 1.06-inch screen is designed to turn the keyboard into your own personal gaming hub, showing things such as the battery percentage and status of the keyboard, as well as the date and time. However, you can also put your own personalised GIF onto the screen to add yet another personalised touch to the keyboard. Alongside the mini screen is a rotary knob in the top right corner, which can be used to control your volume, screen and the backlighting of the keyboard. Both the knob and the mini screen offer a great level of functionality to the keyboard, whilst also allowing you to further personalise the keyboard to your gaming set-up aesthetic.

Like many of Epomaker’s keyboards, the TH80 V2 PRO benefits from tri-mode connectivity, allowing you to connect seamlessly to your PC, tablet and phone. These connections are possible using the included 2.4Ghz dongle that comes with the keyboard or via Bluetooth for a wireless connection; however, you can also plug in the keyboard using the included wire. These connections ensure the keyboard is compatible with multiple operating systems, including Mac and Windows. To support the keyboard’s wireless connection, the keyboard features a 1000mAh battery, which offers over 200 hours of use before you need to plug it in again. This is perfect for keeping your gaming setup wire-free and tidy across many hours of gameplay.

Overall, the Epomaker TH80 V2 PRO keyboard offers a great keyboard that is built to last and has been designed to offer a comfortable gaming experience personalised to your gaming preferences. From its beautiful aesthetics with the glowing RGB lights, to the satisfying press of each key, it really would make a great addition to any gaming set-up.
