Common questions

Frequently asked

What is tri-mode wireless?

Tri-mode means the keyboard connects three ways: USB-C wired, 2.4GHz dongle (faster, lower latency), and Bluetooth (no dongle, multi-device). Most premium wireless boards now include all three.

Is wireless gaming performance acceptable?

The Logitech G915 TKL uses Lightspeed 2.4GHz with sub-1ms latency — indistinguishable from wired in most tests. For casual gaming, any 2.4GHz board is fine. For competitive play, avoid Bluetooth-only boards.

Which wireless keyboard works best with Mac?

The NuPhy Air75 and NuPhy Halo75 both ship with Mac keycap legends and Mac OS layout support. The Keychron K8 is also popular. See our dedicated best keyboards for Mac guide.

How long does wireless battery typically last?

It depends on RGB usage. With backlighting off, most tri-mode boards last 200-500+ hours. With RGB on, expect 20-50 hours. The Keychron B1 (scissor, no backlight) achieves 2400 hours.
