The Fully Assembled version includes:
- The keyboard PCB, the case, and the aluminum plate.
- Keycaps (included Mac & Windows keycaps).
- Adjustable-actuation-point Gateron double-rail magnetic switches.
The K2 HE is compatible exclusively with the Gateron Double-Rail Magnetic Switch. It does not support other magnetic switches such as the Gateron Magnetic Jade or Gateron KS-20 Magnetic switches.
A fully customizable 75% layout wireless keyboard with magnetic switches — a breakthrough in switch technology, which—instead of physical contacts—uses magnetic sensors to measure actuation depth, putting you in total control over the response of each and every switch.
Gateron Double-Rail Magnetic Switches: Keychron K2 HE comes with pre-lubed Gateron double-rail magnetic switches for an ultra-stable and ultra-responsive typing experience with an industry leading, lightning-fast response time, and precise control over the way your keyboard feels and responds. Jump into action with unmatched smoothness and stability.As opposed to traditional mechanical switches, magnetic switches use pressure-sensitive hall effect sensors to detect keypresses—which means you get to set the depth at which you want each keypress to engage, with 0.1 millimeter precision.
Adjustable Actuation Point: Customize each key with precision, adjusting actuation points from 0.2 to 3.8 mm with 0.1 mm sensitivity. Set shallow keypresses for instant actions and deeper ones for deliberate engagement, minimizing accidental touches and giving you an edge in both gaming and typing.
Last Keystroke Prioritization (LKP) & Snap Click: LKP allows seamless directional changes by prioritizing the last key pressed, ensuring smoother gameplay in titles like Valorant. With Snap Click, deeper keypresses take precedence when two keys are hit at once, automatically resetting shallower presses. Together, these features make counter-strafing effortless, giving you the accuracy and speed needed for high-level FPS play.
*They are disabled by default, but you can easily enable them in our Launcher web app when needed.
Dynamic Rapid Trigger: Activate or deactivate keys based on how far they travel, not predefined points. This means immediate key reactions—press to activate, release to reset—allowing for faster, more precise keystrokes. In rapid gameplay, this translates to executing complex actions in real-time without delay, giving you a serious advantage during fast-paced sequences.
One Key. Multiple Actions: Thanks to Dynamic Keystrokes (DKS), you can now assign up to 4 distinct actions per key based on press depth. A light press moves your character, a deeper press makes them run, and releasing the key enables additional commands. This layered control lets you execute multiple moves with ease, streamlining gameplay while enhancing control and speed, making your reactions quicker and more precise.
Analog Mode: Experience the power of Analog Mode on your K2 HE, bringing game controller-like precision to your keyboard. This mode enables variable inputs instead of the usual on/off signals, letting you achieve more fluid and dynamic control.
With each keypress, the K2 HE detects how far you press, translating it into different speeds and intensities. Enjoy nuanced control and heightened responsiveness in racing games, sports simulations, and more.
