A traditional keyboard mounts the switch plate directly to the chassis or tray, resulting in a stiff feel and lower manufacturing costs. A gasket-mounted keyboard uses rubber or silicone gaskets to hold the switch plate, enhancing sound quality and providing a softer typing experience.

The CNC aluminum frame on the Summit 65 offers significant benefits, including enhanced durability and stability, ensuring the keyboard remains in place during intense use. The rigidity of aluminum eliminates flex, providing a solid typing experience, while also improving the sound quality of keystrokes by reducing hollow or plastic-like sounds. These features make aluminum-framed keyboards ideal for users who prioritize performance and build quality.

All Higround keyboards come with pre-lubed switches, providing a smoother, more precise typing experience and improving the keyboard's sound quality.

The HG Summit 65 already includes lubed switches, lubed and taped stabilizers, and dampening materials within its aluminum frame. To further personalize this keyboard, users can swap out keycaps, experiment with different switch types like tactile or clicky switches to customize the typing experience, and add additional sound dampening materials. These mods can elevate the HG Summit 65 to an even higher level of personalization.

The Summit 65 is fully Mac compatible. The Windows key on a Higround keyboard functions as the Command key on a Mac, and the Alt key functions as the Option key. You can remap these keys to match the Mac layout by going to System Preferences > Keyboard > Modifier Keys.

A 65% keyboard is a smaller version of a regular keyboard. It has most of the important keys, like letters, numbers, and arrow keys, but it doesn't have the number pad on the side or some extra keys at the top. It's popular because it's compact and easy to carry around, while still having the keys you need for typing and gaming.

Higround 65 layout keyboards do not have F-keys to make the keyboards more compact and portable. This design saves space, making it easier to carry around and fit on smaller desks. Even without the F-keys, you can still access their functions using key combinations or software, so you don't lose any functionality.

The Basecamp 65 comes with lubed switches, lubed stabilizers, and dampening materials in its frame. If you want to make it even more your own, you can swap out the keycaps, try different switch types like tactile or clicky ones, and add extra sound dampening materials. These tweaks can make the Basecamp 65 feel even more personalized and fun to use.
