KEEBMONKEY WOBKEY Crush 80 Reboot CNC Aluminum 5-Second Quick-Release Triple-Mode Connectivity Mechanical Keyboard with Superior Acoustics (Pro Red)

Love this thing. It's a bit loud if you switch the included metal plate but the keyboard just generally sounds great with no modifications. I changed all the switches because I prefer tactiles, and everything sounds great. The stabs are only snap ins but the spacebar needed no modifications to remove any sort of rattle. Insanely easy to open this thing up, cover just pops right up. Everything is friction fit so you can change the acoustic layers pretty much instantly. Case feels really well machined and it just looks beautiful. 10/10 keyboard I love this thing. The only comp I own price-wise is a Keychron Q5 and if I had to pick between both boards I'd go with this one all day.

This is maybe my 65th budget board in my collection (give or take a few), and I could not be more pleased with it, to the point where I'm contemplating buying 2 more in different colors (navy and warm silver), because they're so beautiful. To say that I have a love affair with budget boards would obviously be an understatement. I'd coveted the Rainy75 for a long time, but didn't want to deal with a case with screws and no place to store the dongle. I did eventually cave and buy one, after also purchasing a lot of the Rainy clones like the Inky75 (hands down one of my all-time favorite budget boards as well), Womier SK75, Womier RD75, Weikav Stars75, and Bridge75. All have their good and bad points, but the Rainy remains the one that started it all, and I think it's an excellent board with great acoustics, but the shortcomings that prevented me from buying it at first still persist. Well, Wobkey fixed all of those issues with this board, and although it's a larger form factor than I'd prefer, since I typically go for 75% instead of TLKs, it's such a great board that I'm willing to overlook the slightly larger footprint, since realistically, it's only an inch and change longer. This thing is a beast, weighing in at around 5 lbs. I think it's even heavier than the Womier SK87, which is one of my favorite budget TKLs (though that one can be had for less than 1/3 the price of this one, so I'd argue that it's hands down, the best value). The ball catch mechanism to open the case is flawless, and I LOVE that they implemented a magnetic connection. There are a couple other boards in my collection that have this feature, but it's such a game changer in terms of being able to rapidly disassemble things for modding. There's one board I have that implemented a magnetic connection in the case, but it's dangling by a ribbon cable, which kind of defeats the purpose. This board kind of just does all the things that you wish a keyboard would do. RGB is nice and bright, there are lots of foam options for you to play around with, AND this comes with an extra aluminum plate in case the FR4 isn't your cup of tea. I do wish it would come with a PP plate as well, to really give more sound options, but as it is, for a board in this price category, including an extra plate is basically unheard of. I'll be buying an extra plate from the website that rhymes with schmali-express though for more sound and feel options. The spray coating on the pink board is very well done and super smooth. I can't see or feel any inconsistencies in the paint and although I do wish they'd picked a slightly warmer pink, I do appreciate that they kept the color soft and light, since I have a couple pink boards in my collection that are pretty Pepto Bismol-y, and had I known they would differ from their product photos so much, I probably would've passed on them. The back weight is interesting, since it's mounted on a white base with the silver crackle over top. I actually like it quite a lot because it eliminates one of the most annoying issues with metallic back weights (in my opinion), which is that the reflective ones are usually fingerprint magnets and keeping them clean is an absolute headache. I don't have to worry about touching or scratching this weight because the texture hides everything. Plus it looks cool. Having onboard dongle storage on the bottom of the board is brilliant. I just don't know why every single board doesn't do this. I have a pill case filled with dongles of the other manufacturers who haven't gotten on board with this yet. Although I don't think many people will be traveling with this board due to its size and overall heft, I will. I bring a different keyboard into work with me on a daily basis, and having someplace to store the dongle without fear that it's going to get lost is a huge plus for this board. For the record, the Womier SK87 and the Weikav Lucky80 have this feature as well, and both boards have high marks from me, too. The switches that come with this board are ok - good, not great. They sound nice and offer a kind of a poppy clack, but the lube feels a bit inconsistent on some, leading to a scratchy feeling. Stabilizers are really well-tuned, but could benefit from a bit of extra lube. The keycaps are double-shot PBT and feel a bit cheap, but they're decent and very useable so that you can pull this board out of the box and start using it right away. Most of the fonts are crisp and well done, especially on the alphas, but there is a little bit of inconsistency on the modifiers. The tab, caps lock, enter, windows, and super buttons all have a bolder font than everything else - kind of an odd little thing, but unless you're specifically looking for it, it's not so obvious that you would immediately notice. I don't love the sound of the spacebar, but it's easily fixable with a little bit of fun tack, and I don't plan on keeping the stock keycaps for too long anyway. The fact that this board is VIA compatible is excellent - it allows you to customize your board to a degree that it should function perfectly for even the most sophisticated macro user, but you do have to search for the .json file and be sure you don't lose it, or else you run the risk of not being able to customize your board if it disappears from wobkey's website. My one and only gripe, and it's not even a big one, is that the on/off switch for wireless functionality is located under the caps lock key. This is currently pretty standard, so it's not the end of the world, but it does mean that if you do want to take this board somewhere with you and you plan to use it wirelessly, you'll also need to bring along a keycap puller. Speaking of the caps lock key - I thought that there wasn't an indicator light for when it's toggled on, but as it turns out, the ECG light on the right side of the board actually serves as an indicator. When caps lock is on, it turns white. Then it goes back to whatever color you had it set to once caps is off. Love that little feature, since I think caps lock indicators are an absolute must-have. Overall, I could not be more pleased with this board in looks, sound, and functionality. Now I just need to stop myself from buying 2 more of them.

Okay, so I'm going to separate this review into a few different categories. I also own the Rainy75 (essentially the smaller sibling of the Crush 80 and still made by Wobkey) so I'm going to be comparing the two a lot. To quickly summarize my opinion though, I think the Crush 80 is a phenomenal board at this price and I think, in general, it's a better value purchase than the Rainy 75. Build Quality and Features: This keyboard has most if not all of the premium features you expect out of a good keyboard in 2025. It's got tri-mode connectivity (Wired, Wireless, Bluetooth), it's got RGB, It's got quality of life features like ball catch closure and pogo pin connectors. As far as quality, the Crush 80 feels very, very premium. It's made of CNC aluminum and it is very heavy. I believe it weighs around 2.4 kg or 5.4 lb. This keyboard is chunky and on the larger side, being a TKL (80%). The rubber feet, side RGB, RGB ECG feature, etc are all great. I think the navy blue one I got is anodized too, which in my opinion feels more premium than my spray coated blue Rainy 75. The magnetic ball catch case is so nice to have if you plan on modding this. Essentially, the case and assembly still feels very solid but when taking the keyboard apart to mod, you do not need any tools. There are no screws to handle unless you're fiddling with the bottom weight specifically. It takes 2 seconds to open this keyboard up. With the rainy 75, you have to take out 12 keycaps, which will reveal screws that, when taken out, will finally allow you to take the top of the case off. The Crush 80 is so much more convenient to mod. Another QOL feature is the POGO pin connectors. Instead of having a cable that connects the battery/case to the PCB, it's a simple contact-based magnetic connector. This means there is no cable to unplug and potentially break. You can just lift the PCB assembly right out of the case without unplugging anything internally. This is also a feature that the Rainy 75 is lacking. The Crush80 has some nice RGB accents on it aside from the key lighting. It's got an RGB heart ECG design that is above the arrow keys as well as two downward-facing RGBs; one on either side that will shine some light on your desk. Interestingly, I have not found an option to turn these off. Even when I turn the key backlights off (Fn+backspace) these accent RGB lights stay on. This doesn't bother me much though. Edit: I found out how to turn the accessory RGB off, it’s just a different key combo from the key backlights. The power switch for this keyboard is under the caps lock key. This means that just to toggle the keyboards power, you need a keycap puller. To use the keyboard in wired mode, power can be off. This is personally a non-issue for me as I just use this keyboard in wired mode. I'm not going to be traveling with this 5 and a half pound keyboard, so I personally don't have a reason to use the switch ever. One other thing this has that the rainy doesn't is a spot on the keyboard to store the wireless USB dongle. On the Crush 80, there's a little magnetic "hatch". If you remove the little cover, you'll see a spot to store the dongle. The rainy 75 has nowhere to store the dongle, meaning you will need to keep track of it. As far as sound and feel go, it's been an absolute privilege to type on this keyboard. It's marbly and creamy. The stock experience out of the box is wonderful. The keyboard is very loud though. I don't think this would be appropriate for an office setting at all. With this being a hotswap board though, it's easy to change out the switches for something quieter. If you do want a silent keyboard, swapping out the Kailh Cocoa switches on this for silent-oriented switches would make a massive difference. This is what I did to my Rainy75 and now it’s as quiet as a membrane or chiclet keyboard. The Crush 80 also comes with more accessories than the Rainy 75. You get a solid, premium-feeling case, a microfiber keyboard sleeve, a decent braided (non-coiled) USB-c cable, and an average keycap/switch puller. You also get parts like extra switches, extra rubber feet, extra gaskets and screws. They even provide an aluminum plate in case you want to swap out the FR4 plate, and they include additional poron foam that you can put in the keyboard. The Rainy 75 is still a very well-designed and functional keyboard, but I think that the Crush 80 is a better value with its features and included accessories. At the time of this review, the Crush80 Reboot Pro is only $21 more than the Rainy75 Pro. The crush 80 is even less expensive from other vendors, but buying from Amazon provides that peace of mind when it comes to delivery and returns. Wobkey themselves (The manufacturer of this and the Rainy75) do not have the best track record so being able to order this through Amazon is really nice. There have been many bad experiences reported with trying to get product support when issues arise, whether it’s lack of a response or just unwillingness to do an exchange. That’s why buying from Amazon is the safer (albeit more expensive) option as you have more flexibility for returns or exchanges.

This keyboard has been treating me well over the past couple months, I haven't even needed to charge it yet, but keep in mind I don't use the RGB lighting so this makes the battery just last significantly longer, the quality of the keyboard is superb, it's heavy, sturdy and especially doesn't sound hollow due to the mods this board comes with, it has gaskets for a soft typing feel that doesn't feel too mushy but doesn't feel too stiff either, the board also comes pre-installed with a force break mod so that it doesn't sound hollow, the switches it comes with are rather good! But for me the lightweight switches weren't up my alley, I swapped them out for gateron milky yellow pro v2's and it's made the board feel significantly pleasant to use, I love the magnetic ball latch system for ease of access on the internals it allows me to install mods easily as well so if your a big keyboard modder this might be the board for you! All in all I recommend this keyboard to those who really want the "end game" of keyboards I might say!

Royal Mail decided to delay my package, but the support from ComputerOrbit assured me everything was going to arrive fine, it also arrived in pristine condition all while being worth my money

the keyboards quality is great and it sounds quite nice, i had no problems or issues when opening it after it shipped

This keyboard is a COMPETITION KILLER!!! Having over 20 keyboards, switches, mods, plates, and everything inbetween I am absolutely blown away by the quality and packaging of this keyboard. I won’t lie, I was hesitant to try this keyboard as I’ve only really seen the brands popular keyboard the Rainy. But, the Crush 80 is phenomenal. I love my Aulas, epomakers and keychrons, for their own different reasons, the Wobkey Crush80 combines all the amazing features of these other brands together to create a masterpiece, It sounds as creamy as you can get out of the box, even with an aluminium body, comes in a friggin travel case!!!!! With extra switches, keycap puller, wired connectivity cord, and additional plates to customise it later. This isn’t sponsored (but hey Wobkey if you’re reading this hahah maybe you want to) All in all, I will always reach for a Wobkey and look forward to purchasing from them again very soon!

Beautiful keyboard. Sounds delicious. Delivery was done on time, product had no issues. Small cons: 1. The power button under Capslock is kinda annoying. 2. Backlight not being see through kind of makes it hard to see in dark if you rely on it.

Having gone through more than a few mechanical keyboards that did not live up to my admittedly high standards, I have finally decided to take the plunge and get this highly-acclaimed keyboard. Its reputation is richly deserved - the build quality and the quality of metal finishing is absolutely spectacular in comparison to other aluminum keyboards in $150-$200 range. I know this keyboard is more expensive than those boards, but it is fairly obvious that the quality control on it is much higher than that of its competitors. In terms of actual functionality, RGB is perfect, switches sound and feel amazing and are medium-weight linears which I personally enjoy a lot. Stabilizers are lubricated properly. Keycaps are dualshot PBT with sharp legends and feel fairly smooth to touch - I do prefer slightly more coarse surface of dye-sub PBT keycaps, but the legends on those are not as sharp. Wifi performance is flawless, but I personally use it in purely wired mode, so I simply disconnected both batteries. The packaging is also spectacular as the keyboard comes in its own carry zippered case inside a carboard box. Extra switches gaskets and other trinkets are included. Crush 80 is also toolfree disassembly and is super easy to mod. The only exception is the battery compartment which has 6 screws that are large and made of very strong metal, so they are not easy to strip. If you are a mechanical keyboard connoisseur, this keyboard is worth is massive weight in gold. It will save you a lot of time and headache in the long run.
