Epomaker Galaxy70....a different 75% layout

Epomaker Galaxy70 Review
I recently got my hands on the Epomaker Galaxy70, and I must say, it has exceeded my expectations in many ways. Here are my thoughts on full aluminium custom mechanical keyboard:

Design and Build Quality: The Galaxy70 has a curvy, sleek, modern design with a unique 75% layout, perfect for those who want a compact keyboard without sacrificing essential keys. The full aluminium shell with a powder-coated finish not only looks premium but also feels incredibly sturdy. The keyboard is available in three color variants, and I opted for the grey variant, which looks very smooth and calm or as my daughter said "it looks cute".

Switches and Typing Experience: I got the HUANO Blossom Odyssey switches, and they provide a smooth, well-lubed, medium-weight linear feel with each keystroke. The hot-swappable PCB allows you to easily customize the keyboard with different switches if you want to change things up. The keycaps on this board are thick dyesub PBT. Typing on the Galaxy70 is a joy, and the sound is a pleasant marbly thock muted, thanks to the foam inside the case.

Lighting and Customization: The south-facing RGB lighting on the Galaxy70 is vibrant and customizable. The keyboard offers various lighting modes, and I love how I can personalize the lighting to match my setup. I am a huge fan of volume knobs, so I was really pleased to see the inclusion of a metal rotary knob.

Connectivity: The Galaxy70 supports multiple connectivity options, including wired, Bluetooth wireless, and a 2.4ghz dongle. The Bluetooth connection is stable, and the 4000mAh battery ensures that I don’t have to worry about frequent recharging. I have the Galaxy70 on a wired connection to my gaming/editing PC and Bluetooth to my MacBook so I can easily switch between the 2.

Overall Impression: The Epomaker Galaxy70 is an excellent mechanical keyboard that combines style, functionality, and customization. Whether you’re a gamer, a writer, or someone who spends a lot of time typing, this keyboard is a fantastic choice.
Although it bears resemblance to the original Galaxy80 (especially the wireless dongle slot) and the LED indicator strip, it is certainly its own unique design.

I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality mechanical keyboard, especially due to its unusual and rounded 75% layout that just makes it stand out a little from the recent influx of 75% aluminium rectangles!
