Montech MKey PRO Wireless Mechanical Keyboard Review
Source: Tech Power Up added 19th Dec 2024Introduction
Montech is the house brand of Telon Co., Ltd., a Taiwanese company that has been around for over 30 years. Montech started out in the domestic market before slowly expanding overseas, and this happened simultaneously with an aggressive marketing campaign that has resulted in several product reviews on TechPowerUp already. These include cases, CPU coolers, fans, and a keyboard too, with the MKey TKL showcasing what Montech has planned for its keyboard lineup. Today we continue this with an examination of its latest keyboard—the MKey PRO.
While the Montech MKey comes in TKL and 100% sizes, the new MKey Pro is a 75% form factor keyboard. Montech is being consistent with the colors though, offering this in the same two colorways as the other keyboards from 2023. The blue/white version is called “Freedom,” with the darker color referred to as, well, “Darkness.” If you have seen my previous review of the MKey TKL, the MKey PRO will not be very different with the solid feature set on offer. This includes the use of a gasket mount design, south-facing LEDs, hot-swappable switches, and a multi-functional wheel. This PRO version goes further with hybrid wireless connectivity and Gateron’s newer G Pro 3.0 switches in addition to having open-source firmware with QMK and VIA support. If that’s got your attention then let’s get started with this review which begins with a look at the product specifications in the table below. Thanks to Montech for providing a review sample to TechPowerUp!
