The EPOMAKER HE75 V2 TMR Magnetic Keyboard is a 75% layout board designed to combine high-level gaming capability with the tactile feel of a traditional mechanical keyboard. Available in three major currencies—$129.99 in the US, CAD $193.99 in Canada, and £119.99 in the UK—the board emphasizes a premium unboxing experience, arriving in protected packaging.
The board features an aluminum body that provides rigidity and weight, preventing noticeable flex during use. Its 75% layout retains essential navigation and function keys while keeping a compact footprint. A rotary knob in the top right assists with volume and other functions. The overall aesthetic features clean lines and rounded edges, presenting a refined appearance.
At its core is the TMR magnetic switch technology. This allows the user to adjust the switch’s actuation point with 0.01mm precision. The included Creamy Jade switches provide a smooth and responsive feel. Complementing the core technology is a gasket-mounted construction and five layers of internal sound dampening, which contribute to a controlled and soft typing experience.
Functionally, the HE75 V2 TMR supports adjustable actuation, Rapid Trigger, and an 8000Hz polling rate. These features are aimed at delivering fast, precise responsiveness demanded by modern gaming. The board’s connectivity is tri-mode, offering options via USB-C wired connection, 2.4GHz wireless, and Bluetooth 5.0. A large 8000mAh battery supports extensive wireless use.
Technological flexibility is another standout area. The PCB is a hybrid hot-swap design, uniquely supporting both magnetic and conventional 3/5-pin mechanical switches. This provides considerably more versatility compared to the standard HE75 V2 model.
In practice, the gaming features are highly functional. The TMR switches prove extremely responsive, and the adjustable actuation point gives the user high control. Rapid Trigger is particularly valuable in fast-paced gameplay because keys reset quickly, regardless of how far they travel. Coupled with the 8000Hz polling rate, key presses register nearly instantly.
Outside of gaming, the typing experience remains enjoyable. The gasket mount and sound dampening layers ensure comfort during long typing sessions without making the board feel overly soft. The 75% layout strikes a good balance between functionality and available desk space. Switching between devices using the wireless connectivity is straightforward.
Customization is managed through dedicated software. The interface allows control over key assignments, RGB lighting, and general settings. Critically, the magnetic switches allow for customization far beyond conventional mechanical keyboards, enabling detailed adjustments to the actuation point and performance-focused features like Rapid Trigger. While the software presents a slight learning curve for new users, the ability to save different configurations simplifies switching between setups.
The review praised the depth of features packed into the device. While the TMR switches deliver expected gaming performance, the board avoids sacrificing everyday usability. The combination of the gasket mount, dampening layers, and smooth switches makes it enjoyable for typing. Funky Kit ultimately awarded the keyboard its Editor’s Choice recognition, acknowledging its balance of enthusiast features and genuine gaming technology.
