75% Compact Mechanical Keyboard

The Magegee MK-Star is a 75 percent layout mechanical keyboard with 87 keys and clicky blue switches. It connects via a wired USB 2.0 cable and features single-colour blue LED backlighting with 19 lighting modes. A metal panel and double-shot keycaps provide durability, while 16 extra red keycaps are included for customisation.

Suits gamers and writers wanting clicky feedback

The clicky blue switches deliver loud tactile feedback suited to typists and gamers who prefer audible confirmation. Users needing quiet operation for shared spaces or linear switches for rapid actuation should consider other options. The compact form factor omits a dedicated number pad, which may not suit spreadsheet-heavy workflows.

87 keys with full anti-ghosting

All 87 keys support full anti-ghosting, allowing multiple simultaneous presses without conflict during intense gaming. Twelve multimedia shortcuts are integrated for media control. The keyboard draws power directly from the USB connection with no external supply required, and works plug-and-play across Windows, Linux and Mac systems.
