Dual-Action Key Innovation
Our innovative Dual-Action technology allows seamless expansion tailored for professionals and gamers alike. Allows Certain Special Keys to be easily activated without requiring significant hand movement.

Exquisite Lighting Atmosphere
Supports over 15 unique RGB Backlits, with a rare and technically challenging Floating RGB Cycle design on the keyboard's base.
The entire keyboard offers two independently customizable backlit zones, creating an immersive atmosphere during use.

Thoughtful Design
Aesthetic Appeal
Keyboard body is crafted with 90% aluminum alloy, accented by brass as the material for external function buttons, adding a touch of sophistication.
This gives the compact and lightweight keyboard a sense of stability and maturity.
Keycaps are made of single-color injection-molded PBT, ensuring a comfortable fingertip touch and precise color matching.

Innovation Built on
Proven Technology
Featuring Tecsee Low-Profile Linear Switches with 1.7mm Actuation。 Pointand 40gf Actuation Force - engineered for gaming speed and typing precision.
(The Dual-Action Switch is, for the most part, similar to a standard low-profile switch and can even be used directly with low-profile keycaps.
However, when paired with an Upper Keycap, it effectively adds an additional key with a linear feel.)

Fully QMK / VIA Supported
Fully customizable with QMK/VIA, empowering you to redefine your input experience.
Dual-Action Keys are included as well - no matter how imaginative you get, almost anything can be achieved.

Hot-Swappable For All
Allowing you to freely switch between standard low-profile switches and Dual-Action switches.
Dual-Action Key can be easily removed, just like standard keycaps and switches.
Feel free to DIY your layout to suit your preferences.

Pioneer Unboxing Hands-On Review
Design Story

Over more than a decade of using all kinds of keyboards, we've witnessed their evolution from occupying two-thirds of the desk to becoming increasingly compact.
The advent of low-profile keyboards further reduced their vertical footprint. As technology and times advance, people increasingly desire to have their personal space under their own control.
However, the more compact a keyboard becomes, the more it relies on multiple layers to compensate for the keys omitted by its layout. Having more layers doesn’t necessarily make things more convenient; on the contrary, it often adds to the user’s burden. Typing can be interrupted by the need to recall which function key combination - such as Fn plus another key - triggers a certain shortcut.
This led us to wonder: what if we could fundamentally change each key, allowing every seemingly identical key to do more - just like the virtual keyboards on smartphones, where a single character can output different commands through upward or downward swipes?
