The AJAZZ AK980 is designed for gamers and professionals who prioritize a premium typing feel and space-saving efficiency. Its standout feature is the advanced gasket structure paired with five layers of sound-absorbing foam, providing a refined, cushioned typing experience that is exceptionally quiet. While its 98% layout maximizes desk space by keeping the number pad, users should note that this wired-only model lacks wireless connectivity options.

No, the AK980 model is a strictly wired mechanical keyboard utilizing a detachable Type-C connection.
Yes, the PCB is hot-swappable and supports most standard 3-pin and 5-pin mechanical switches.
The keyboard features a fixed-zone rainbow backlight which offers multiple lighting effects, but it does not support per-key RGB programming.
A gasket mount provides a softer, more flexible typing experience and significantly reduces the hollow 'pinging' sound often found in standard tray-mounted keyboards.
Yes, the keyboard is designed for broad system compatibility and will function as a standard HID device on both Windows and macOS.
Verify the Type-C cable is fully seated in both the keyboard port and the computer USB port, or try a different USB port.
If the keyboard is hot-swappable, remove the keycap and ensure the switch is fully pressed into the PCB socket; check for bent pins.
Check if the keyboard's backlight brightness settings have been adjusted to the lowest level using the function key shortcuts.
Setting up the keyboard is straightforward: connect the included Type-C cable to the keyboard and your computer's USB port. The device is plug-and-play, working across most major operating systems without additional driver requirements. To maintain the keyboard, keep the surface free of dust by using a soft brush or compressed air. If you choose to swap switches, ensure they are aligned correctly with the socket pins before gently pushing them in to avoid bending the metal legs. Avoid using liquid cleaners directly on the keycaps or PCB.
