The EPOMAKER TH108 V2 Pro continues the company’s push into affordable enthusiast mechanical keyboards, pairing a traditional full-size layout with features that until recently were largely reserved for more expensive custom boards. A gasket-mounted design, hot-swappable switches, tri-mode wireless connectivity and a customizable display give it plenty of appeal on paper, while its sub-$100/€100 price positions it as an attractive option for gamers and productivity users alike. The question is whether those premium ambitions translate into everyday use.
Fortunately, the typing experience is where the TH108 V2 Pro immediately makes a strong impression. Available with either Creamy Jade switches or the quieter Sea Salt Silent V2 option, the keyboard offers a satisfying balance between responsiveness and comfort. The gasket construction and multiple layers of internal dampening create a pleasantly deep, refined sound profile that feels more premium than the price would suggest, while the stabilizers are generally well tuned and largely free of distracting rattle. It makes long writing sessions just as enjoyable and comfortable as extended gaming marathons.
Despite relying on an ABS plastic chassis rather than aluminum, the board feels reassuringly substantial thanks to its weight and solid construction. It stays firmly planted during intense gaming sessions and the textured PBT keycaps contribute to an overall sense of quality. There is some minor case flex if you deliberately twist the chassis, and a few quality-control quirks such as a slightly wobbly rotary dial or occasional over-lubed stabilizers may appear, but these are relatively minor complaints considering the price bracket.
The full-size layout is becoming increasingly uncommon in gaming keyboards, making the TH108 V2 Pro stand out for users who still rely on a numpad or dedicated navigation keys. That extra functionality naturally comes at the expense of desk space, and anyone moving from a compact keyboard will need some time to readjust. Once acclimated, however, the familiar layout proves versatile for both work and play, while the adjustable feet make it easy to find a comfortable typing angle.
One of the keyboard’s biggest talking points is its integrated glass-covered TFT display situated alongside the programmable rotary knob. The screen displays connection status, battery level, time and RGB settings, while also supporting custom GIFs for a more personal touch. In practice, it’s a feature that lands somewhere between genuinely useful and novelty. Having a clock or battery indicator readily visible is convenient, but many of the screen’s functions can just as easily be handled through software, and its limited viewing angles and relatively small interface reduce its practical impact.
Connectivity is another area where EPOMAKER gets the fundamentals right. Wired USB, low-latency 2.4GHz wireless and Bluetooth support allow the keyboard to move easily between desktop PCs, laptops and mobile devices, while the massive 10,000mAh battery delivers excellent endurance that minimizes charging interruptions. The browser-based configuration software also avoids mandatory software installation and offers extensive customization for macros, RGB lighting and the display itself. Unfortunately, the interface isn’t especially polished or intuitive, meaning newcomers may need to spend some time learning where everything is located before unlocking the keyboard’s full potential.
Gaming performance is equally dependable. Low latency, 1000Hz polling over USB and 2.4GHz, plus full N-key rollover ensure reliable responsiveness across competitive titles, while the switches provide enough consistency to satisfy both fast-paced shooters and slower strategy or simulation games. The quieter Sea Salt switches are particularly appealing for shared households or office environments, whereas the Creamy Jade switches deliver a livelier mechanical experience without becoming excessively loud.
The TH108 V2 Pro isn’t without compromises. The ABS chassis lacks the premium feel of aluminum competitors, the display is more of a luxury than a necessity, and the software still trails the refinement offered by larger peripheral manufacturers. Even so, those shortcomings are relatively easy to forgive when viewed alongside its impressive typing feel, broad connectivity, enormous battery and enthusiast-inspired feature set.
EPOMAKER has managed to build a keyboard that feels far more expensive than its asking price. While it may not replace a high-end custom mechanical board for dedicated enthusiasts, it delivers an excellent balance of gaming performance, productivity features and everyday usability. For anyone looking for a modern full-size mechanical keyboard without venturing into premium pricing, the TH108 V2 Pro is an easy recommendation that successfully combines substance with just enough flair.
