Sharkoon introduced the OfficePal KB70W, a full-size wireless mechanical keyboard designed for office use, featuring soundproofing elements and south-facing ARGB LEDs for even lighting. The model uses a gasket-mount design with a polycarbonate plate and PU foam damping, delivering a softer, quieter typing feel while retaining responsiveness.
A quieter variant, the KB70W Silent, ships with alternative switches to reduce noise further, and both use double-shot PBT keycaps for durability. VIA compatibility lets users remap keys, tweak lighting and create macros without extra software, and the wireless connection focuses on desk tidiness.
Priced at €79.90, the OfficePal KB70W line aims to give professionals customizable, low-noise typing and illuminated layouts, reflecting a broader trend toward quieter, productivity-focused peripherals.
