Closer Look
If you couldn’t tell, the reason I chose this model was due to its color scheme. I love blue but that blue and purple just look absolutely amazing together. I have been reviewing a lot of peripherals lately and am always looking for new and unique looking products.
As for the box contents, there are four extra mechanical switches, the USB-a to USB-C cable and a dual Key Cap/Switch puller.
As the name suggests, this is a 75% keyboard. I like that the arrow keys have a small gab between them and the main keys, this is more natural and probably what most people are used to.
They keycaps have a more rounded profile to them, which is a nice touch. They almost feel softer than normal keycaps when typing on them as well. The font is easy to read and the letter size is larger and printed in the center of the keycap.
The K75 Lites comes with 3 connectivity options, wired, wireless and Bluetooth. Personally, I never use Bluetooth but it is nice to have for those that need it to us on tablets and the likes. For me, wired or wireless is the way to go. Using the 2.4G wireless connection I was rather impressed with how it performed. I could go on the other side of my front room which is about 16FT away and it worked flawlessly. It was still just as resposnve as it was when it was sat on my desk next to my PC.
The K75 Lite features a USB-C connection option for charging and using in cwired mode. It seems as if KZZI usese this cover plate on other models and offers different connections. Would have been lovely to see some USB passthrough options here, and while KZZI didn;t include these, I won’t hold it against them.
Our review model has the Rain switches and it looks as if they are made by JERRZI which is a new name to me. The K75 Lite has a few different switch options available as well which is always nice to see.
For our RGB lovers out therte, the K75 Lite has a nice lighting effect to it. The LEDs are bright enough so you can see them but not so bright as to be overpowering.
The Rain switches feature a south-facing RGB LED and have a nice size cutout for the lighting to shine through. The Rain switches also feature the standard Cherry stem so you can easily change out and replace the keycaps should you want or need to.
I am a fan of RGB lighting on products, as long as it’s not bright enough to land planes in my yard! The K75 Lite’s lighting is just enough to offer a nice ambient glow while working in the evening
Even the bottom of the K75 Lite follows the color scheme of white/blue/purple which is a nice touch.
The feet have two seperate heights you can adjust the keyboard to depending on your preference. This is a feature I always love to see as while it seems small, it makes a massive help in ensuring the keybaord is comfortable to type on for different people.
The Wireless USB receiver is tucked in nicely to its own little spot on the bottom of the keyboard. It’s easy to pull out and as soon as it’s inserted into your PC, you will be able to use the K75 Lite wirelessly with ease.
Final Words
For the current price tag of around $70, the K75 Lite has a lot to offer. It features a gasket structure with hot swappable mechanical switches. This is going to allow you to repair and replace any switches you need to with ease. The south-facing per key RGB lighting also does a good job of offering a bit of subtle ambient lighting when using the keyboard.
The K75 Lite also has suppor for both macOS and Windows. It didn’t come with any extra macOS keycaps as they are a bit differtent to Windows which is a shame. I don’t use Mac’s but if you do, having the correct keycaps is likely something you would be interested in. Maybe this is something KZZI could look into for future models of they keyboards.
The 3,750mAh batter isn’t the largest but it will give you a couple days of usage with the RGB lighting on. Thanks to the connectivity switch, it is easy to turn the wireless or Bluetooth modes of so you can conserve battery life, especially overnight. The Wireless range will let you use the keyboard with your device from across the room with ease. This will be great if you are connecting it to your television but want to sit on your couch. In my testing, I managed 16 feet of range with absolutely no lag or delay in the key pressed being registered.
If you are looking for a fairly standard 75% keyboard, the K75 is a great choice. My only real issue with it is that the secondary key functions used with the FN key are not printed on the keycaps. Instead, you need to look at this massive set up instructions to figure out what each key does when used with the FN key. I mean, it’s nice they still have the FN key function, but would be nice if there was an easier way to figure things out is all!
Whether gaming or typing, the K75 will make a great companion and will look amazing on top of your desk.
