Cooler Master MK770 RGB Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Kailh Box V2 Soft Click White Switches, Board Structure, Hot Swappable, Bluetooth|2.4GHz, Touch Dial

After spending weeks researching for the perfect keyboard, I ended up finding the Cooler Master MK770 almost by accident — and honestly, it turned out to be a hidden jewel in its price range. Since I struggled to find good real-world reviews when I was shopping, I’m writing this to help anyone else in the same situation. My Requirements ============== I needed a keyboard that: • Works on both Windows and macOS without constant remapping • Provides an excellent typing experience for heavy daily use • Has a numpad for my workflow (I rely on custom AutoHotkey mappings and enter numbers frequently) • Can handle occasional gaming • Isn't overpriced like some premium 200+ USD options Gaming keyboards were either TKL (missing productivity keys) or Windows-only. Productivity keyboards like Logitech MX series lack a 2.4GHz dongle or wired mode. So finding all these features in one board seemed impossible… until the MK770. Pros ==== • True Windows/macOS compatibility Switching is dead simple — just press Fn + Shift. No need for remapping every time. • Dual OS legends printed on the keycaps Unlike many keyboards, this one includes both Mac and Windows labels natively. No swapping keycaps or guessing. • Amazing typing experience The factory switches feel soft, creamy, clicky, and genuinely satisfying. One reviewer even called it the best typing experience they’ve had in years — I agree. • Tri-mode connectivity 1. Bluetooth 2. 2.4GHz wireless 3. Wired Bluetooth is great for normal use and less demanding gaming, but you can switch to 2.4GHz or wired for competitive gaming. • Excellent sound dampening Very quiet and refined for a board in this price category. • Solid plastic build Not metal, but definitely sturdy and well-made. • Bluetooth pairing up to 3 devices Switching between them is nearly seamless. • 4 onboard profiles Great for different setups or custom lighting/macros. • MasterPlus software support Includes remapping and macro creation. • 3-way multifunction roller Controls volume by default and can be remapped (could potentially be customized to do scrolling via AutoHotkey, haven't tested it yet though). • Compact 95% layout Keeps the numpad and all major keys but trims unused spaces. • Modern, clean aesthetics This was the deciding factor for me over the YUNZII YZ98. • Function row is not offset This is a big plus for me. Unlike many keyboards this means no muscle memory relearning and no mispressing when switching between keyboards. Cons ==== 1. Terrible battery life (the biggest downside) Even though it's advertised as 4000 mAh, it drains extremely fast. With RGB: expect daily charging, maybe more My workaround: • Static lighting at the dimmest setting • Auto-sleep at 3–5 minutes This gives me about 2–5 days per charge. 2. MasterPlus software is weak • Doesn’t refresh battery or brightness status when changed from the keyboard • Requires restarting the app to update info • No battery percentage indicator Workaround: connect via Bluetooth → check OS Bluetooth settings for percentage 3. No dedicated CapsLock/NumLock indicators Instead of an LED, the key just flashes white or disables RGB briefly. You can’t tell whether the lock is currently on — it’s very inconvenient. 4. Some users reported sluggish input Not everyone experiences it, but it’s worth mentioning. 5. My wired-mode issue (may not affect others) The first time I plugged it in wired, it charged but didn’t register inputs. After several keyboard system resets and replugging, it worked and never failed again. Likely a first-time driver installation glitch. Conclusion ========= The Cooler Master MK770 delivers a rare combination of: • Full OS compatibility • Great typing • Numpad productivity • Gaming capability • Attractive design • Tri-mode connectivity If you can tolerate the battery and software flaws, this keyboard is one of the best options in its price bracket — especially for mixed Windows/macOS users. Will I keep it? Probably yes, because nothing else meets my exact use case without going above $200. Would I buy it again? Probably not, mainly because of the battery and software — but for now, it’s still the best option for my workflow.

This keyboard is damned near perfect. I've only had it for a few days, but I'm already in love. It's heavy so my meaty fingers don't move it around. The click is.. 👌🏾😫 so sweet, but also not too crazy loud. The lighting schemes and extra features are beautiful. It seamlessly works on the dongle and switches from BT to USB instantly! All in a compact rechargable board. God I'm getting old to be so excited about this thing. My multi device workflow has never been upgraded so well by one device. Excellent keyboard for a space saving techy stickler like me.

I had been looking for a creator kit for a while now and decided to take a change on Cooler Master because of the modularity. So far it has been a great addition to my setup. I’ve been using it for a little over a week now and I love how modular it is and being able to move the parts around is super handy, especially for multi-purpose user like me that’s using it for gaming and photo editing. The buttons and dials feel solid as well. Setup took a bit of time, and the software could be smoother, but once it’s going, it works great.

Was looking to replace my Corsair K70 Mk.2 with something more solid. My requirements were: - Have Bluetooth connectivity - 2.4 GHz connectivity - Wired connectivity - Must have USB-C - Be from a reputable brand This keyboard fulfils all my requirements and I’m very happy with the build of it. Don’t be fooled by it’s plastic body, it’s very solid. If you are a programmer, home and end keys are on the numpad. THE ONLY THING… is that the keyboard doesn’t prop up high enough with the feet extended. So for that I give it a 4 star rating.

This is my second mechanical keyboard and I really enjoy it. I have a Mac Studio and was able to remap the keys using Karabiner-Elements. I specifically got it because of its wired and wireless options. Works great either way for me, but prefer a wired connection. Easy to customize the RBG lighting and it’s much more quiet than my Logitech Pop keyboard (in my video typing video). Great for the occasional late night work since I work out of my bedroom and don’t want to wake my partner. I’d say for my second mechanical keyboard, it’s a great experience and excellent packaging experience too!
