The Epomaker G84 is a gaming and standard mechanical keyboard in a compact 75% layout with a standard profile, measuring 347 mm wide, 147 mm tall, and 42 mm thick at a weight of 900 g. It supports tri-mode connectivity via USB, Bluetooth 5.0, and 2.4GHz wireless, and includes a detachable cable for added convenience. The gasket mount contributes to its typing feel, while a 1000 Hz polling rate keeps input response consistent. Running wirelessly, the keyboard offers up to 400 hours of battery life, and it is also designed for Mac compatibility. A one-year warranty is included.
The G84 features a plastic case in black with a backlit RGB lighting system using a north-facing LED direction, which shines light toward the top of each keycap. Adjustable feet are included to let users set their preferred typing angle, though no wrist rest is bundled with the keyboard.
The G84 comes equipped with Epomaker Creamy Jade mechanical switches, which offer a linear feel with a 45 g actuation force and a fixed actuation point of 2 mm within a total travel distance of 4 mm. The board is hot-swappable, meaning the switches can be replaced without soldering, giving users the flexibility to swap to different switches down the line.
The G84 supports N-key rollover (NKRO), ensuring every simultaneous keypress is registered accurately, and it includes QMK firmware support for users who want deep keyboard customization through open-source configuration. It does not offer VIA or ZMK support, and features such as analog input, rapid trigger, dual actuation, adjustable actuation, USB passthrough, and an onboard display are not present on this board.
The G84 uses an ANSI (United States) layout with a standard key arrangement, so compatibility with replacement keycap sets is straightforward. The keycaps are made from PBT plastic in a Cherry profile, which provides a familiar, slightly sculpted typing surface. Media functions are accessible via the Fn key rather than dedicated keys, and there is no rotary dial on this board.
