90% RGB Mechanical Keyboard

 Specifications

94 KEYS. EVERY ONE WHERE IT SHOULD BE.

The Machenike K500 was built around a layout decision that most keyboard makers get wrong: keep what matters, cut what doesn't. The 90% form factor gives you a full function row, arrow keys, and a dedicated numpad — everything a full-size keyboard has — in a footprint that finally gives your mouse room to breathe. No compromises on functionality. No wasted space on your desk. Just 94 keys, perfectly placed.

HUANO SWITCHES. YOUR FEEL. YOUR CHOICE.

The K500 ships with HUANO mechanical switches — available in Brown, Red, or Blue — each tuned for a specific typing and gaming experience. Brown for the tactile bump that confirms every keypress without audible click. Red for the smooth, linear travel that competitive players reach for when speed is the only variable that matters. Blue for the crisp, audible click that makes every keystroke feel intentional. Choose the switch that matches how you play and how you type — the K500 delivers whichever one you pick with consistency across every key.

HOT-SWAP. EVERY SWITCH. ZERO TOOLS.

The K500's hot-swappable PCB accepts both 3-pin and 5-pin MX-style switches — pull the current switches, install new ones, done in minutes. No soldering iron, no technical knowledge required, no permanent decisions. Start with the switches the K500 ships with, swap to something different when you're curious, and swap back if you change your mind. The board adapts to your preferences without asking you to buy a new keyboard every time those preferences change.

PBT DOUBLE-SHOT KEYCAPS. BUILT TO OUTLAST YOUR NEXT THREE KEYBOARDS.

Double-shot injection molding means the legends on the K500's keycaps aren't printed, painted, or laser-etched onto the surface — they're a separate layer of plastic molded directly into each keycap during manufacturing. The result is a legend that physically cannot fade, wear, or rub off regardless of how many hours you put in. The PBT material keeps the surface dry and textured over time, resisting the shiny, slick feel that ABS keycaps develop after extended use. These keycaps are worth keeping long after the board they came on.

20 RGB MODES. 16.7 MILLION COLORS. NO SOFTWARE REQUIRED FOR THE BASICS.

The K500 ships with 20 built-in RGB lighting modes — switchable on the fly via shortcut keys without touching any software. From static single-color to dynamic reactive effects, every mode is accessible the moment you plug in. For deeper customization, the driver software unlocks full macro programming, custom key remapping, and per-key color assignment, with settings saved directly to the keyboard's onboard memory so your configuration travels with you between setups.

FULL N-KEY ROLLOVER. EVERY INPUT. EVERY TIME.

Anti-ghosting with full N-Key rollover means the K500 registers every simultaneous keypress without dropping a single input — no ghosted keys, no missed combos, no competitive disadvantage from your keyboard deciding which keypress was intentional. Whether you're executing a complex ability rotation or hitting multiple modifier keys simultaneously, every input lands exactly as intended.

DETACHABLE TYPE-C CABLE. CLEAN DESK. EASY TRANSPORT.

A detachable Type-C cable means no permanent cable management headaches and no wrestling with a hardwired board when you move setups. Swap cables, route them differently, or replace a damaged cable without replacing the keyboard. 18 multimedia shortcut keys handle volume, playback, and brightness adjustments without breaking your flow — all accessible via Fn layer without leaving the home row.
