About Zifriend H61K

The Zifriend H61K is a 60% wired mechanical keyboard designed for users seeking a compact, customizable, and budget-friendly typing and gaming experience.

Compact Layout and Connectivity: Featuring a minimal 61-key layout, the H61K maximizes desk space and portability, making it popular with gamers and minimalist setups. It connects via a detachable USB Type-C cable, which is convenient for travel and cable management. Due to its compact size, many standard keys are accessed via the "Fn" (Function) key combinations.

Switches and Customization: A key feature is its hot-swappable switch sockets, which are compatible with 3-pin mechanical switches (typically Outemu brand). This allows users to easily change the default switches—often available in Red (Linear), Blue (Clicky), or Brown (Tactile)—without soldering, allowing for personalized feel and sound.

Design and Features: The keyboard is constructed with an ABS body and often comes with PBT or ABS keycaps. It includes multicolor or row-assigned RGB backlighting with multiple lighting modes and adjustable brightness, controlled via the Fn key combinations. For performance, it supports multi-key rollover (up to 21 or 26 keys anti-ghosting) to ensure accuracy during fast input. The H61K provides an ergonomic design with adjustable feet and is broadly compatible with Windows and macOS systems. It is generally marketed as a highly cost-effective entry point into the world of mechanical keyboards.
