check out the Neo65 from Neo and @qwertykeys2119 with me… the incredible new budget board that starts at $79.99! 🤩
what a time to get into custom keyboards - I sure wish keyboards like the Neo65 were offered when I first got into the hobby 🥹
the Neo65 truly packs a punch above its weight, featuring a dual mounting system and a Tri-mode PCB compatible with VIA, including wired, Bluetooth and 2.4G wireless mode.

here are my thoughts so far on the Neo65:
• [mounting]: I’m currently using the o-ring mount and it feels stellar. it’s designed with a reserved groove for the o-ring at the blocker - so no need to forcefully bend the o-ring, making the assembly way more enjoyable. this is a game changer, as I think it evens out the sound throughout the board.
• [sound]: I built this with no foams (no plate or switch foam) and it sounds incredible - an even sound profile throughout the whole board, no hollowness or case ping at all. the Neo65 is a finely tuned machine 👌🏼
• [weight]: I love the orbit engraving on the weight (I opted for copper) - the design is so clean, and did you know that Neo also stands for “Near Earth Objects”? hence the orbit 🪐 so neat!
• [case design]: the unibody case is minimalistic and I’m here for it. the Neo65 features ultra-slim side bezels, which really lets your keycaps blend with your desktop quite seamlessly.
• [price point]: starting at $79.99 (as a plateless solder PCB kit with brass weight) is no joke. this is likely one of the lowest starting price points that I’ve ever seen for a quality custom.
• [overall]: the Neo65 is a must cop for anyone looking for a sign to get into the keyboard hobby or just starting out. the quality and design is top tier with an INSANE starting price of $79.99. I’ve never seen anything like it! the Neo65 is thoughtfully designed, and I’m so happy that something like this is available in the hobby. I highly recommend the Neo65 and can’t wait to see it out in the world!
