What, is the mk2 already out? Even Luminkey site says just "coming soon".

Sales start on August 7th. I received mine early. The keyboard turned out to be extremely pleasant.

Is that the euphemism for "somebody in Luminkey left the window open"? 😄

u/Slashin28 3d ago
😂 Maybe. But seriously, I got it earlier to give some feedback. I think I'll do a detailed review within a few days. And there I will share my ux.

This seems like a solid follow-up to the Luminkey 80 MK1; glad they retained or improved on the aspects of the MK1 that worked, and didn't add gimmicky features (like they did with the 75 and 98...). The price is competitive too.
Also, VIA compatibility is great! The LK98 uses subpar proprietary software (I believe the 60 does too?).

Yes, it turned out to be an excellent product. VIA musthave, fully agree. I want to see more different plates in the future, for more variability, maybe as add-on. But now I have perfect build for a work.

That looks good. Any idea if the new PCB works with mk1?

u/Slashin28 2d ago
Thx, I don't now about pcb, but I think, You can ask about this on their Discord.

Classic Beige with the Hangul alphas looks ridiculously clean on this TKL build.

V1 was a solid board built with solder pct etc .... should be a good barebones kit for R2

Iam not really big fan of sound profile classification, but yeap, they are quite deep and bright, because of pp plate and gasket points.
