At a glance

EE (Essential Edition) are DIY kits that only come with stabilizers. You have to source the switches and keycaps and build the keyboard yourself

AE (Assembled Edition) come fully assembled, ready to use. They are built with lubed switches, lubed stabilizers and WS double-shot keycaps. More details below

All ZoomTKL add-ons & accessories are compatible with both EE & AE

While the AE PCB supports multiple layouts, the AE keyboards come with enough switches and keycaps for the ANSI layout only, as pictured.

Highlights

Bluetooth PCB

Use your Zoom TKL 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.

VIA Customization

The 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!

Multi-layout

Unlike traditional keyboards, you are not stuck with just one layout on Zoom TKL! 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.

Ambient lighting

Zoom TKL features an array of LED lights on each side under the case for a soft underglow.

You can customize the lighting effects and colors in VIA in real time!

Gasket mount

Zoom TKL 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.

Gasket Sleeves

The gasket sleeves are made of supercritical foam, it can stabilize the plate while still give appropriate space allow it to flex at a balanced way. Just allow it to move, not too stiff, not too much flex.

Hot-swap Switches

Both wired and Tri-Mode Zoom75 PCBs feature 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!

Ergonomic typing angle

ZOOM TKL design incorporates a small bevel on the front bezel to reduce the apparent height for a more comfortable typing experience. Meletrix also left a greater than usual distance between the function row and the numrow to make it easier to home in and to prevent accidental touch.

Foam included

In order to reduce resonance, many tests were done on the foaming material of the Zoom TKL. Meletrix made the new PORON lighter and denser, as a result they make the keyboard sound more concentrated and deeper than stock settings.

Extras included

ZOOM TKL comes with almost everything you need to put together your first keyboard, including an USB-C cable, premium WS stabilizers and a carrying case. All you need to get are switches and keycaps of your choice and you're all set!

Keyboard feet

Zoom TKL uses a two long strips for feet. The longer strips ensures better stability and helps improving the sound of the keyboard as well. The lower foot will hide the four screw holes at the bottom.

WS PBT Double-shot

Comparison

AE ONLY

Wuque Studio, Mech.land and many others across the world have spent 18 months debating over even the most minute details on a double-shot PBT mould. The goal was to fix and improve upon the slight imperfections seen in the popular double-shot keycaps in the market and this goal was achieved in 2022.

If you've purchased Zoom75 keycaps, WS Kraken, WS Stellar, WS Basic Red, WS Basic Yellow or Zoom75 PBT Keycaps then you're already familiar with the above average quality of WS Double-shot keycaps.
