Appearance

Neo65 Core Plus is a 65% keyboard featuring Neo Studio’s dual O-ring and gasket mounting. With a 3D copper weight, unibody aluminum case, and tuned internals, it delivers natural, foam-free acoustics and a crisp, responsive typing feel—without extra bulk.

Unibody

Minimalism guides our design philosophy. The Neo65 Core Plus, like its predecessor Neo65, features ultra-slim side bezels that integrate seamlessly with any desk setup, regardless of theme.

Neat Side-profile

The inward-sloping edge complements the front's minimal design while making the keyboard easier to lift and handle.

Weight with Orbit Engraved Logo

The engraved orbit logo on the weight builds on the Neo65’s design, adding just a few extra details to showcase the Core Plus series upgrade.

Acoustics Performance

The Neo65 Core Plus delivers a crisp, lively sound through a refined aluminum case with tuned resonance and precision porting, eliminating hollow echoes for a brighter, more refreshing typing experience.

The substantial 3D copper weight on the Neo65 Core Plus anchors the keyboard both visually and functionally, dampening unwanted vibrations during typing. This adds a delightfully solid heft compared to the previous Neo65 and delivers a purer, more transparent key-on-case tone—all without requiring any foam.

Upgraded Aluminum & CF Plates

Both the Aluminum and CF plates now feature a redesigned layout with a strategic slot above the spacebar. This slot helps absorb impact, reducing collision noise and wobble, while improving flexibility. The result is a more consistent typing feel between the spacebar and the rest of the keys.

Dual-Mounting System with Upgraded Gasket

  • Support both PCB gasket mount and gummy O-ring mount (not compatible with plateless configurations)
  • Our specially designed gaskets make installing the PCB and plate assembly into the case significantly easier
  • The sloped-slot on the gasket distributes pressure evenly across the surface instead of concentrating it at one point, providing consistent cushioned rebound and stable support with every keystroke

Craftmenship Elevated

We’ve elevated our anodizing process to achieve an ultra-fine, silky finish. With lower surface roughness, you’ll notice and appreciate the premium look and feel from every angle and every touch.

Magnetic Connector

Many users considered the absence of a pogo-pin connector the biggest pity in the original Neo65 a pity, but now we've addressed this on the Neo65 Core Plus. The pogo-pin connector allows you to remove the PCB in seconds without risking cable damage.

Lock-n-Pull Mechanism

With an integrated internals-removal port and included tool, upgrades and customization become effortless, giving you complete freedom to adapt your Neo65 Core Plus to match any style or setup.
