MIKIBY K98 Wireless Mechanical Keyboard, Tri-Mode, Hot-Swappable RGB

For a desk setup that needs wireless flexibility and a dedicated number pad, the MIKIBY K98 combines a compact layout with everyday typing and gaming controls.

Choose Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4GHz wireless, or USB-C wired connectivity to suit your device and how you work. The keyboard can connect to up to five devices simultaneously, making it practical to switch between a computer, tablet, or phone.

Pre-lubricated linear Cocoa-V2 switches and a gasket-mounted structure give each keystroke a smooth, cushioned feel. RGB backlighting and a programmable control knob add convenient ways to tailor the keyboard to your setup.

The compact arrangement keeps the number pad and commonly used function and arrow keys available while using less desk space than a conventional full-size layout. That makes it useful for spreadsheet entry, shortcuts, and gaming without giving up those familiar controls. N-key rollover supports registering multiple key presses at the same time, a helpful feature for simultaneous inputs in games.

The three connection modes let you choose a wired setup at a desk or a wireless connection for a more flexible workspace. With support for up to five connected devices, the K98 can also serve a multi-device setup. Use the connection method that suits the device you are using, compatibility varies by platform and connection.

Tips for day-to-day use

Use the knob’s office mode to adjust volume or control play and pause. Switch to gaming mode to adjust backlight brightness or cycle through lighting effects. Hold the knob for about five seconds to change modes. The programmable functions let you remap keys, create macros, adjust RGB effects, and customize the knob, so controls can be arranged for different work or gaming profiles.

The switches and keycaps can be replaced without soldering, offering a way to customize the feel or appearance over time. For a typing session, the gasket-mounted construction cushions keystrokes and is designed to help reduce noise. RGB lighting offers 16 dynamic effects and 16.8 million colors, letting you choose a look that fits your desk or activity.
