Epomaker's Mid-range Contender
Priced at $66.39, the EPOMAKER TH99 Tri-Mode Wireless is Epomaker's entry in the hot-swappable keyboards category. With 529 buyers rating it at 4.7 stars, it currently sits at #18 of 75 in our rankings. It's in the top quartile of the category, which is where most buyers should be looking.
Construction & Key Action
The Mechanical switches define how this keyboard feels in use. Switch choice is personal - what feels great to one typist can feel wrong to another, so it's worth knowing what category these fall into before committing. The price range here typically gets you a sturdier frame and PBT keycaps that resist shine over time, which is a meaningful upgrade over budget tier.
On the negative side, complaints include: "Plastic case". Worth weighing if long-term durability is a priority.
One feature owners single out about the EPOMAKER TH99 Tri-Mode Wireless: "RGB backlight".
