What It Feels Like to Type On
The keyboard's exact switch type isn't specified in the product listing, which is unusual at this price point. If switch feel matters to you, it's worth checking the manufacturer's site before ordering. 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.
Worth noting on the LEOBOG F99 Pro Keyboard specifically - reviews repeatedly flag "Hot swappable keys" as a standout.

Real-World Feedback
63 reviews and a 4.8-star average is a strong signal. At this scale, manufactured reviews would have to be unrealistically pervasive to move the score this much, which means the satisfaction is real for the typical buyer.
Common positives:
- Hot swappable keys
- RGB backlighting
- Tri-mode connectivity
Common complaints:
- Higher price
- Bulky design
For context, the average rating across all 141 gaming keyboards options we track is 4.5 stars, so this product is meaningfully above average.
The Field Around It
At $79.99, the LEOBOG F99 Pro Keyboard sits well above the $63.18 category average. 112 options are cheaper and 28 are more expensive.
The category leader is the Redragon K552 Gaming Keyboard ($29.99, 4.5β , 39,549 reviews). It's $50.00 more expensive than the top pick despite ranking lower, which is a hard combination to justify unless a specific feature swings the decision.
Cheaper alternatives worth a look:
- HITIME x XVX M67 Keyboard - $58.89, 4.9β (79 reviews) Β· Better on both axes
- HITIME M67 60% Gaming Keyboard - $55.79, 4.9β (79 reviews) Β· Better on both axes
- AULA F87 Wireless Mechanical Keyboard - $59.99, 4.8β (270 reviews) Β· Cheaper If pure price is the filter, the cheapest is the Guiheng 60% Mechanical Keyboard at $13.99.
Who Should Get This
Maybe. Middle-of-the-pack on rating and price, no standout strengths. If a specific feature matches your need (hot swappable keys or rgb backlighting), it's reasonable. Otherwise the top picks are safer bets.
Best fit for:
- Quality-first buyers who prioritize a track record of satisfaction over saving a few dollars
- Users who specifically need portability or compact size
- Buyers who want RGB or aesthetic features
Pros & Cons
Pros:
- Hot swappable keys
- RGB backlighting
- Tri-mode connectivity
Cons:

- Bulky design
The Verdict
7.2/10
Functional, mid-pack option. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing pushing it above the better-ranked alternatives either.
