Zoom65 V2: EE Features
Gasket mount
Zoom 65 V2: EE uses a gasket isolation mount structure for a soft, bouncy and pleasant typefeel that won't fatigue your fingers even after hours of typing. Gasket mount keyboards sound better and feel more even throughout the board than the typical off-the-rack tray mount keyboards.
Multi-layout
Unlike traditional keyboards, you are not stuck with just one layout on Zoom 65 V2: EE! Change things up every now and then with split backspace, left shift and spacebar! You can also switch between normal and stepped caps lock or ANSI.
VIA customization
The Bluetooth PCB is fully compatible with VIA, the powerful GUI widely renowned for it's customizability and ease of use. Re-map any key on the keyboard on 4 different layers, including the knob. Use built in powerful shortcuts and macros, or define your own!
Bluetooth PCB
Use your Zoom 65 V2: EE with your PC, laptop, tablet or even your phone - all without any wires. Enjoy a fast, lag free experience thanks to Bluetooth 5.0. Plug in an USB-C cable to charge the battery or to use the keyboard in wired mode. A 2250 mAh Li-ion battery is included with every kit.
Upgraded Case Finish Treatment
All case colors except GT Silver are electrostatic coated like previous Zoom65 EE, but they are more delicate and smoother.
GT Silver, due to its special color is nano coated like Zoom TKL series, which is very similar to anodized aluminum process.
Gasket Sleeves
The gasket sleeves are made of supercritical foam, it can stabilize the plate as the same time giving appropriate space allowing it to flex in a balanced way. Just the right softness, not too stiff, not too much flex.
Hot-swap
Zoom65 V2: EE PCB features Kailh Hot Swap sockets that allow you to just push the switches on, no soldering required! Changing switches is a breeze, you can go from linear to tactile in a matter of minutes, all on the same keyboard!
WS Stabilizers V3
For the first time ever per-key RGB makes an appearance in the Zoom series. Zoom65 EE V2 provides a wide range of colors and effects for a different visual experience, and RGB lights can be used in both wired and Bluetooth mode, allowing you to turn on the lights anytime, anywhere.
Optional Internal Weight
Take your keyboard to the next level with an internal SS weight, sold separately. It weighs about 234 grams.
Foam included
In order to reduce resonance, many tests were done on the foaming material of the Zoom Zoom65 V2: EE. Meletrix made the new PORON lighter and denser, as a result they make the keyboard sound more concentrated and deeper than stock settings.
Plate variety
Plates in other materials, such as brass, aluminum and FR4, can be sold as add-on accessories, and they dramatically change the feel and sound of the keyboard
Extras included
Zoom65 V2: EE comes with almost everything you need to put together your first keyboard, including an USB-C cable, premium WS stabilizer v3 and a carrying case. All you need to get are switches and keycaps of your choice and you're all set!
