I’ll be completely honest. Hall effect keyboards have never really done it for me. I’m not necessarily sure how to feel about a keyboard that purports to be mechanical, but then has no real switch inside. However, personal qualms aside, I can see why a lot of gamers have flocked towards them. They offer snappy inputs for starters, while there are some next-level options including the Wooting 60HE which offer special functions such as rapid trigger to offer even quicker inputs thanks to their adjustable actuation points with next-to-no debounce.
That’s where this Endgame Gear KB65HE comes in, a £139/$139 Hall effect option which brings the powers of Hall effect and rapid trigger in a reasonably priced package. The switches inside the KB65HE are Gateron KS-37Bs, which are excellent for their intended purpose: high intensity gaming.
