Bundle Light Mount

To begin this series of two unpackings, I’m starting with the Light Mount, the brand’s first offering, priced at €169.90.

We find a representation of the keyboard, illuminated by its RGB LEDs, on a black box. We also learn that the model is equipped with the brand’s orange linear switches, manufactured by Cherry MX.

A simple, effective bundle for a classic keyboard: it includes the keyboard itself, a USB-C cable for connecting it to your computer (note that the keyboard has no battery), a magnetic wrist rest and a dual-purpose extractor for easily removing keycaps and switches.

The keyboard has a steel top plate, integrated into a well-made plastic chassis, with an RGB strip on top for a touch of illumination.

On the left-hand side of the keyboard, you’ll find a dedicated volume control, accompanied by a central button for muting the sound; the whole thing is backlit in RGB.

There’s a good-quality wrist rest, magnetised on both sides, which locks into notches in addition to being magnetised, to prevent any movement once it’s in place.

At the rear of the keyboard are two adjustable feet, so you can easily adjust the tilt to suit your preferences.
