Introduction

Ranked is a new PC peripherals brand that debuted recently with the goal of delivering “high-quality, highly-available products at affordable prices with absolutely zero compromises,” and contacted us to see if we can help cover its keyboard. The company claims to be an amalgamation of community members as well as industry-leading professionals. It can be rough for new brands to get the word out—especially with SEO already against you with this name not helping find the exact product easily—so I agreed to do a review of the Ranked Nova 60% mechanical keyboard.

The Ranked Nova n60 is also referred to as the Ranked Nova 60 in a few places, so I am choosing to go with the former naming here while letting you know they are the exact same keyboard. This is a small form factor unit joining in with all the 60% keyboards that seemingly popped out of nowhere last year, although admittedly I have seen the user interest slightly dip in favor of 65-75% keyboards that offer dedicated arrow keys. Ranked seems to have a solution just for this with a tapping mode that I will be keen to test, to give you dual functionality on the same keys without relying on analog switches. There are more features aboard to talk about, including the expected RGB backlighting as indicated by the image above, and we begin our review today with a look at the product specifications in the table below.
