Luminkey Lumino75 Review

Luminkey, a sister brand to Create Keebs, has made a name for itself over the last couple of years with the popular and affordable LK series. We’ve reviewed the LK65 and LK80 here and enjoyed both, but the brand got its start with the LK75. It’s back with another stab at the 75% layout, this time with a heaping helping of personality. If you’ve considered a custom keyboard or a premade like a Keychron in the past, don’t pull the trigger yet. For $215, the Lumino75 offers tri-mode wireless, a compact form factor, excellent build quality with its colorful aluminum case, and a great typing and gaming experience.
