4 FAQ

  • What are the changes compared with the V1 Atom68?
    (1) Higher quality materials.
    (2) Thread inserts for screw holes.
    (3) Thicker gaskets.
    (4) Improved solution for the Bluetooth module.
    (5) Improved overall structure
  • Is it compatible with other NIZ keyboards such as NIZ66?
    No, but we are also planning to make the aluminum cases for NIZ87 and more.
  • Is it possible to provide more colors?
    If we see enough interests in the IC.
    (6) Electrostatic capacity keyboard is more complex than a mechanical keyboard. What if I buy a kit and can’t assemble it?
  • We will not only provide installation guidance, but also use the original NIZ production line to provide customers with original assembly services, providing you more choices,
