With the Crystal Shark, Sharkoon has introduced a new keyboard that not only impresses with its eye-catching, transparent design, but also offers numerous features that particularly appeal to gamers and technology enthusiasts. With the combination of polycarbonate keycaps, hot-swap switches and wireless usability, it brings a breath of fresh air to the gaming peripherals market.
The most important features:
- Completely transparent design with polycarbonate keycaps for optimum RGB lighting
- Dual mode: can be operated both wirelessly and via USB-C cable
- Hot-swap switch for easy replacement of buttons without soldering
- Compact TKL design (85 % layout) for space-saving use
Innovation in transparent design
The highlight of the Crystal Shark is undoubtedly its consistent, transparent design. Both the housing and the keycaps are made of polycarbonate, which not only ensures a robust feel, but also enables perfect distribution of the RGB lighting. The keyboard is an absolute eye-catcher and fits seamlessly into any modern setup. Thanks to the customizable RGB lighting, the lighting can also be individually configured without additional software.
Maximum flexibility: wireless or wired
The Crystal Shark can be used either wirelessly via 2.4 GHz or via the supplied USB-C cable. In wireless mode, the keyboard can last up to 180 hours – ideal for long gaming sessions or use in the office. If the battery runs low, the keyboard can easily be used while charging via cable.
Customizable switches thanks to the hot-swap function
Another key feature of the Crystal Shark is the pre-installed, linear KTT switches, which are ideal for gaming. For users who prefer a personalized typing experience, Sharkoon offers the option to easily swap the switches thanks to hot-swap technology. Tools are included in the scope of delivery for this purpose, which can be used with any 3- or 5-pin switches.
Compact TKL design for maximum space
With its compact layout, which is about 85% the size of a conventional keyboard, the Crystal Shark is space-saving and ideal for gamers who need a lot of freedom of movement on their desk. Despite its compact size, it offers all the important functions, such as preset multimedia keys and a polling rate of 1,000 Hz.
Conclusion
The Sharkoon Crystal Shark combines innovative design with flexible use and a high degree of customizability. With its transparent look, wireless operation and hot-swap function, it is a real highlight for gamers and technology fans. The keyboard is available now and its compact design makes it perfect for anyone looking for a space-saving yet powerful keyboard. Further details can be found on the official website.
