Base75 Keyboard Kit Review

Why a 75 % layout keyboard is the most enthusiasts will ever need?

A 75 % layout keyboard gives you all the keys you actually press, none of the keys you don’t, and just enough space left over to aim, draw, swipe, or scroll. That’s why it’s not just another layout—it’s the last one most enthusiasts ever need.

What Makes Base75 Truly Different?

Five Exclusive Colorways (First-Ever Run)

• Patrick Star – soft bubble-gum pink
• Mint Soda – frosted mint with silver pops
• Macaron – lavender + cream duo
• Island Mood – sand-beige meets ocean teal
• Berry Cheese – raspberry red kissed by cheese-cake yellow

Each hue is anodized, not painted, so the color sinks into the aluminum and will never fade or chip.

Modular Everything

• Hot-swap PCB (ANSI, 7u spacebar, 1.6 mm, non-flex cut)
• Dual mounting styles: gasket or top-mount in the same box
• Tri-mode daughterboard: Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4 GHz, USB-C
• QMK & VIA out of the box—remap any key in seconds

Collector-Grade Back Weight

Flip the board over and you meet the star of the show: a 420 g CNC-carved “blade pattern” weight.
• Process: The design is carved by 5-axis CNC in 0.2 mm depth steps, then glass-bead blasted and anodized (or PVD-coated in optional stainless steel).
• Visual Effect: Light glances across the ridges create a shifting “knife-edge” shimmer—think Damascus steel but pastel.
