I'm sorry for the high pitch noise in the background of the last section of my video. I didn't realize it until started editing the footage :(

The QK65 Mk3 is retro gaming console inspired keyboard and share design similarity with the QK80 and QK101. You will see the familiar LCD screen and dot matrix on this board. The most exciting thing about this board are the switch toggles on the back of the board! I initially thought they were just decorations and I was very surprised that they work and have a function XD

I still don't understand why QK revert to ribbon cables. It's not a huge deal but I thought the pogo magnetic connectors were a game changer.

I forgot to mention in the video but if you order the board with keycaps, they come with 70 Rye switches as gift as well!

The overall aesthetics of the board is not my style but I'm sure people who love retro gaming stuff will appreciate this board! The sound of the board is also not by favourite either out of all the QK boards and I still think this board sounds best with foams. PP plate is my favourite compared to alu plate.

The QK65 Mk3 starts at USD199 minus shipping and keycaps
