The 80HE+ is right around the corner. Lekker Tikken, FR4 plate, split spacebar and a large knob. Pre-orders open 17 September at the same price as the 80HE, and Calder Limmen himself explains what has been difficult.

Lovely typing feel, great sound and a premium build

The Keychron Q1 HE is a 75% keyboard with Hall Effect, adjustable actuation point and a typing feel that is fantastic straight out of the box. I've tested the ANSI version and I love it.

Colorful and playful, but short on innovation

The SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless Gen 2 is a playful wireless gaming mouse where the colors and RGB shine. At $109.99 it suits RGB enthusiasts with several SteelSeries devices, not competitive weight chasers. 3 out of 6.

Three years in, still worth it

The golden standard

Four weeks with the Wooting 80HE Zinc ISO. Yes, Hall Effect and Rapid Trigger help. But the real reason to buy this one is what Wooting is.
