"Those who value desk space reject it and opt for a smaller layout like a 75% keyboard or a tenkeyless. Others can't live without the numpad because it's essential for work and other programs. The 98% layout keyboard tries to satisfy both camps. It's a format that compresses the keys together, putting a nearly full-size typing experience into a smaller footprint."
"The Icy Creamsicles had a deeper sound profile that accentuated with several layers of foam and film that make the key presses pop. Typing on it reminds me of the tap of the Crush 80, but deeper and more rounder. That's complemented by the smooth feel of the switches. They glide down with 42g of actuation force, meaning that it's not too sensitive."
The 98% layout compresses keys to provide a near full-size typing experience including a numpad while reducing overall footprint. The MCHOSE x Unbox Therapy UT98 exemplifies this format and pairs a peripheral maker with a tech YouTuber. Switch options include Silent Peach V3 linear silent switches and Icy Creamsicle linear creamier switches; the Icy Creamsicles produce a deeper, rounder sound enhanced by multiple foam and film layers. The switches use 42g actuation force to reduce accidental presses, and silicone gaskets add a subtle give for typing comfort. The keyboard's interior sound and feel contrast with a hard plastic exterior.
