Features
The Akko Ocean Star 3096 DS keyboard, priced from $75.99 to $89.99, is inspired by the serenity and depth of the ocean. The color scheme of light and dark blues evokes the dynamic interaction of ocean waves with light, while white accents represent sea foam, adding a fresh, aquatic aesthetic to the keyboard’s design.
Available with a variety of switch options, the Ocean Star 3096 DS keyboard offers Akko Pink, Orange, and Blue switches as well as Gateron Pink and Orange options. Each switch type provides a distinct typing experience, catering to both tactile and linear preferences.

It supports Akko Macro V1.0, enabling users to program custom shortcuts and macros for enhanced functionality. Although the Ocean Star 3096 DS doesn’t have built-in backlighting, it includes preserved LED slots for optional user-installed lighting modifications. Additionally, it supports N-Key Rollover to ensure precise keypress recognition during intense usage.
With dimensions of 380x130x30mm and a weight of approximately 1.05kg, the Ocean Star 3096 DS is compact yet robust.
