Description

Note:

  • Oxidation of brass and copper weights is unavoidable due to the characteristics of these materials. If you are concerned about this, please choose the PVD stainless steel weight instead.
  • Chroma and Dusk are random mixes of gradients, so the result on each unit may vary.
  • The tri-mode PCB on this sale page comes with a pair of 2200mAh batteries.
  • If you want to edit your Neo Ergo specifications, please do not edit the quantities in the shopping cart. Instead, visit the product page and "add to cart" again.
  • Your order will be cancelled if more than 1 PCB or Plate from the kit listing is added to cart. Click here to purchase addons instead.
  • All PCBs are QMK-based and support VIA.
  • The LED diffusers are mounted on the plate. Turning on LEDs in plateless configurations will lead to the direct glare of the LED light entering the eyes, and therefore, we strongly advise against doing so.
  • The cost of the kernel part and badge is included in the case price.

Weight Options

As Natural as Possible

To balance easy adoption with ergonomic design, we've chosen a tilted Alice layout for this project.


A tent is added in the middle of Neo Ergo to allow hands to rotate slightly outwards, reducing wrist rotation and reliving tension in the forearm muscles.

Case Design

The appearance of Neo Ergo continues the Neo family's simple and retro design style. We've added RGB light strips in the spaces between the keys for embellishment. The color of the light strip can be adjusted according to personal preference, making it easy to match with different themed keycaps.

Like the Neo65 and Neo70, Ergo's side profile is simple and considerate, featuring an inward-sloping edge for easier pick-up. We've concentrated on the design around the USB port to minimize the bulky look created by the tenting case. The bevel above the USB port enhances the dynamism of the side profile, which also forms a natural transition from the top to side.

Kernel

This time, we've included “the kernel” between the top and bottom case. It does not only host the batteries, daughterboard, and magnetic connectors, but also provides an additional element for customization.

Weight and Badge

The orbit logo on the weight has been redesigned. Customers have the option to choose different colors for the weight and badge to add a personal touch.

Wrist Rest

The Ergo wrist rest is the cherry on top. It's specially designed to match the outline and the tenting angle of the Neo Ergo, further lowering the front height to ensure your hands type in the most comfortable position. Customers can choose between the acrylic or cherry wood versions based on preference. The acrylic version undergoes multiple rounds of special treatments to enhance hardness and durability. Each wrist rest is hand-polished for an ultra-smooth texture.

Innovative Gasket Mount

During the prototyping phase, we found that the standard gasket mount couldn’t deliver consistent typing feedback or optimal acoustic performance in a tenting keyboard. As a result, we repositioned the gasket to the middle and corners for the Ergo. This adjustment offers a more evenly distributed typing and acoustic experience across the entire keyboard.

Ball-Catch Structure + Magnetic Connectors

The highly praised ball-catch structure and magnetic connectors from the Neo80 have been retained. Now, you can enjoy the fun of custom keyboards anytime and anywhere, without worrying about cables and screws. Kindly note that it’s advised to remove the top case when you remove keycaps or switches in case the pullers scratch the case.

Improved Layout

We believe symmetry is crucial to the aesthetics of the Alice-style keyboard, so it's one of our main considerations when designing the layout for Neo Ergo. We made the alpha areas to be nearly symmetric to accommodate different typing habits while incorporating multiple options such as 2.25+2.75 spacebars, split backspaces, split shift and arrow keys, all of which are configurable in VIA. Furthermore, we positioned the F and J keys symmetrically to minimize the height difference between the left and right hands while typing.
