Apex Pro TKL is the world's fastest and most advanced keyboard, with an esports-ready TKL form factor. Whether your boyfriend needs the fastest keystrokes in gaming to destroy the competition, or deliberate presses for typing accuracy — Apex Pro TKL delivers.
Equipped with the new OmniPoint 2.0 switches, Apex Pro TKL uses state-of-the-art magnetic sensors for instant, zero-contact keystroke activation to give him what he wants — speed.
Apex Pro TKL offers absolute precision and unmatched customization with the ability to tune the registration distance of your keystrokes to the nearest 0.1 mm. Whether he prefers the feather-light touch of 0.1 mm, or a firm press at 4.0 mm, the choice is his. Program two actions to a single key, depending on how it’s pressed. Walk forward with a light keypress, and then sprint by pressing that same key deeper. Eradicate latency arising from the physical movement of the switch through dynamic activation and deactivation of keys based on travel distance rather than a fixed point in the key travel.
