Features
The Drop SHIFT Mechanical Keyboard features a compact 1800 layout that includes a numpad and arrows while saving desk space compared to traditional full-size keyboards. Its layout is optimized for ease of use, with distinct sections for the numpad and arrow keys. Constructed with a sleek aluminum frame, the SHIFT combines durability with a modern aesthetic, making it a standout addition to any setup. With hot-swappable switch sockets, users can easily customize their typing experience by changing switches without soldering.
The SHIFT features fully customizable RGB lighting with millions of color options, thanks to per-key light pipes and a built-in LED diffuser that ensures smooth, flicker-free illumination. You can set the backlighting to cycle through colors, opt for a two-tone look, or personalize the RGB indicators for Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Scroll Lock.
Programmable via QMK firmware, the SHIFT gives users full control over key functions, allowing for macros and customized key mapping for any application. Dual USB-C ports on each side support data transfer and device charging, adding to its versatility.
Designed to stay put during intensive use, the SHIFT’s sturdy aluminum frame and low profile provide a stable base for typing or gaming. Its shine-through PBT keycaps are highly durable and resist wear, with legends that won’t fade over time. Adjustable feet allow you to find your ideal typing angle, making the SHIFT a versatile and powerful choice for both newcomers and keyboard enthusiasts.
