Meetion MK80 – A lightweight keyboard that packs a heavyweight punch
I will be the first to admit, I always stick to names I recognise. Since building my PC I have come across so many brands that have really made me think twice about how I am spending my money. This is the first time I am personally trying out a MeetionUK product and I am extremely curious to see how it pans out.
Design
This is something that you don’t normally get when you go for cheaper mechanical keyboards. The design element is usually a plain matt black plastic finish with nothing interesting happening in relation to the keyboard chassis. However, with the Meetion MK80, you have a super sleek brushed metal surface. Not only does the surface look great, but it is also extremely durable.
Functionality
Let’s start a the top of the keyboard, if you are a fan of shortcut/function keys then you have 12 different function keys available. These are located as a secondary for the F keys. The functions available on these are all multimedia-related, you have everything from volume keys to skip track and more. These keys have cut-out icons below the F text which represents each of the functions available. Each one is also backlit by the RGB on the keyboard.
Compatibility
When it comes to compatibility sometimes the bigger brands do forget that there are still some users on older versions of Windows. Fear not, MeetionUK have you covered. Not only do they cater to Windows users, but the Meetion MK80 is also fully compatible with Mac. Check out the compatibilities below:
- Windows – XP / Vista / 7 / 8 / 10
- MAC OS X
- USB Connection
Final Thoughts
As stated at the start of this article, I am always really sceptical about brands that I have never come across before. But with so many brands in the world today you really shouldn’t write any of them off until you have tried them out for yourself. The quality of the Meetion MK80 for the price is, especially with the extra discount offered by some of their partners makes this a really attractive keyboard. Whether it is for your gaming set-up or to boost the look of your home office PC, if a super sleek flat keycap keyboard is your style then this is definitely one to look at. I award the Meetion MK80 Ultrathin Keyboard a solid Thumb Culture Silver Award.
