Zifriend ZT82 75% 82 Keys Hot Swappable Gaming Mechanical Keyboard

About Zifriend ZT82

The Zifriend ZT82 is a high-performance mechanical gaming keyboard featuring the space-efficient 75% layout with 82 keys. This compact form factor retains all essential keys, including the function row, arrow keys, and a cluster of navigation keys, making it ideal for both gaming and general productivity where desk space is limited.

A key highlight of the ZT82 is its enthusiast-grade construction. It utilizes a premium Gasket Structure, often paired with double-layer internal silicone damping pads, such as the ISSP sandwich silencing structure. This design significantly improves the typing experience by reducing internal resonance and providing a softer, more cushioned, and quieter keystroke sound.

The keyboard supports Full Key Hot-Swappable sockets (both 3-pin and 5-pin), allowing users to easily change out the pre-installed mechanical switches (such as White or Noah Silver switches) without soldering, facilitating total customization of the typing feel.

The ZT82 offers flexible connectivity, with a more premium version supporting Tri-Mode operation: wired (via detachable Type-C cable), Bluetooth 5.0, and 2.4GHz wireless via a USB receiver. It features vibrant RGB backlighting with multiple lighting effects and music rhythm synchronization on some models, often paired with high-permeability PC or durable PBT keycaps. This combination of compact design, premium structure, and versatile connectivity makes the ZT82 a compelling budget-friendly custom mechanical keyboard.
