FirstBlood AK992 98-Key Hot-Swappable Gaming Keyboard Grey

FirstBlood AK992 98-key hot-swappable keyboard

The FirstBlood AK992 is a wired mechanical keyboard with a 98-key layout that keeps every standard key while fitting a compact 39.1 by 14.2 by 4 cm footprint. It connects over USB-C and uses hot-swappable linear red switches rated for 60 million actuations, so enthusiasts can change the feel without soldering. Ice-blue backlighting offers 20 lighting modes and a multimedia knob adds quick volume control.

Upgrade from membrane or fixed-switch boards

Moving to this board replaces a typical membrane keyboard or a non-hot-swappable mechanical model and immediately adds per-key RGB-free ice-blue illumination, double-shot PBT keycaps and the ability to swap in any three-pin Cherry, Gateron or Kailh switch. The jump is worth it when you want a smaller desk footprint without losing the number pad, arrow cluster or function row, and when you value typing comfort that can be tuned later.

Suits typists and gamers who want a compact full

This keyboard fits users who need every key in a space-saving frame and enjoy customising switch feel on the fly. Builders who require wireless connectivity, multi-device Bluetooth pairing or per-key RGB colour mixing should look elsewhere, as the AK992 is wired, single-colour backlit and USB-only.
