Mecha Break Panther Collaboration

This keyboard is an officially licensed Mecha Break Panther edition built for gamers who want a compact, themed mechanical board. It uses an 87-key layout with Kailh Glaze Jellyfish Pro linear switches and a hot-swappable PCB for easy customisation. The double-layered ABS keycaps have a matte UV coating at MDA-like height. It connects via Bluetooth, 2.4G wireless or USB-C and supports n-key rollover.

Sustained Gaming Behaviour

The linear switches deliver consistent actuation without tactile bump, which helps maintain rhythm during long sessions. A lithium-ion rechargeable battery powers the wireless modes and the board includes an integrated Game Bar button for quick system access. Super Buttons allow fast key mapping on the fly without opening software. The top-mount construction keeps the typing feel stable over extended use.

Setup Compatibility Check

Verify that your system runs Windows 11 or later, or Android, as older Windows versions are not supported. You need a free USB port for the 2.4G dongle or wired USB-C connection. The ambidextrous design suits left- or right-handed use, but the fixed QWERTY layout cannot be changed to other regional layouts. The board weighs 0.24 kg and measures 72 mm in its listed dimension.

Questions about this item

How much noise and heat does the Kailh Glaze Jellyfish Pro linear switch produce during all-day use?

The linear switches are designed for smooth keystrokes without a tactile click, keeping acoustic output low, and the keyboard draws minimal power from its rechargeable battery so heat stays negligible.

What must I already own to use the 2.4G wireless mode on this 87-key board?

You need an available USB-A port for the 2.4G receiver and a device running Windows 11 or later, or Android, to pair and operate the keyboard wirelessly.

Will the hot-swappable PCB and MDA-like keycaps work with older Cherry MX-style switches I already have?

Yes, the hot-swappable PCB accepts standard 3-pin and 5-pin MX-style switches, so you can reuse older Cherry-compatible switches, and the MDA-like keycap profile fits standard MX stems.
