'''Epomaker''' is a mechanical keyboard brand founded in 2019. The brand is known for making customizable keyboards that include many enthusiast features at low prices, often under $100. Its name is short for "Epoch of Makers," which points to the brand's focus on creativity, customization, and helping people build their own setups.

Epomaker sells keyboards along with parts and accessories like keycaps, switches, and gaming mice. Many of its keyboards are sold as full kits, but the brand also sells "barebones" kits without switches or keycaps, so buyers can add their own. The company is run by a team of gamers, software engineers, product designers, and keyboard fans, and it often uses feedback from its online community to design new products.

= History =

Epomaker was founded in 2019. The brand traces its roots to Shenzhen, China, where it was started by people who had worked in keyboard manufacturing. Rather than building factories of its own from the start, Epomaker worked as a platform that helped bring keyboards from Chinese makers to a worldwide audience under the Epomaker name. Early on, it partnered with other brands such as Ajazz, which was already known for budget mechanical keyboards.

Some of Epomaker's early keyboards, like the AK84S and EK68, helped build its reputation. These boards offered hot-swappable switches, wireless connection, and other premium features at prices below $100. This mix of low cost and rich features made the brand popular with buyers who wanted a custom-keyboard feel without a high price.

= Products =

Epomaker makes a wide range of mechanical keyboards in different sizes and styles. Many of its keyboards share common features that have become part of the brand's identity.

== Common features ==

Most modern Epomaker keyboards include hot-swappable switches, which means the switches can be pulled out and replaced without soldering. This lets users swap in switches from other brands like Cherry, Gateron, or Kailh.

Many models also offer tri-mode connectivity, meaning they can connect three ways: by USB-C cable, by 2.4 GHz wireless using a small dongle, or by Bluetooth. The keyboards often come with gasket-mount construction and layers of foam inside, which give them a softer feel and a deeper "thocky" typing sound out of the box. Other common features include PBT keycaps, RGB lighting, and support for customization software like QMK and VIA.

== Notable keyboards ==

The '''TH80''' is one of Epomaker's best-known keyboards. It is a 75% keyboard, meaning it has the function row and arrow keys but no number pad. First released in 2022, it includes a control knob, hot-swappable switches, three connection modes, and PBT keycaps. Later versions, such as the TH80 Pro V2, added a small 1.14-inch screen that can show the time, battery level, connection status, and even custom images or GIFs.

The '''Galaxy''' series is Epomaker's higher-end line. Boards like the Galaxy100 use a CNC aluminum shell, full gasket mounting, and heavy weights over 1 kilogram for a more premium and stable feel. These keyboards aim for a deeper sound and a more luxurious typing experience than the brand's plastic models.

Other product lines include the retro-styled '''RT100''', Hall-effect gaming keyboards such as the '''HE68''' and '''HE80''' (which use magnetic switches for faster response), and the '''Magcore''' series of inductive keyboards. Epomaker also makes its own switches, such as the Wisteria, Flamingo, and Sea Salt Silent, which reviewers often describe as smooth.
