WALLHACK K-001 Keyboard Launches with 65% Layout and Magnetic Switches

WALLHACK has entered the keyboard market with its debut model, the K-001, marking a shift from its previous focus on glass mousepads. This launch matters to readers who track peripheral hardware trends, as it introduces a new competitor in the compact gaming keyboard space. The company aims to deliver a minimalist wired option for gamers who prefer a smaller footprint on their desk.

WALLHACK debuts its first keyboard with a 65% layout and magnetic switches

The K-001 utilizes a 65% layout, which removes the numpad and function row to save space while retaining essential navigation keys. It connects to computers via a wired interface, ensuring stable signal transmission for competitive play. The chassis is constructed from 6063 aluminum alloy, providing a rigid frame that resists flex during intense typing sessions.

Specifications

  • Layout: 65% wired
  • Chassis: 6063 Aluminum Alloy
  • Switches: Gateron KS-TR Linear Magnetic
  • Polling Rate: 8kHz
  • Keycaps: PBT Double-shot

Under the hood, the keyboard employs Gateron KS-TR Linear magnetic switches. These switches offer three distinct actuation force profiles: a standard 48 to 63gf, a low 28 to 38gf, and a heavy 61 to 76gf. This variety allows users to select the feel that best matches their typing or gaming style without needing to replace the switches.

The internal PCB supports an 8kHz polling rate and a 16kHz scan rate, which reduces input latency to 0.13ms. It also claims a precision of 0.01mm for accurate key detection. The design features a Tray Mount structure with four-layer damping and comes with PBT double-shot keycaps. Users can adjust the typing angle using two fixed aluminum alloy tilt brackets set at 4 and 7 degrees.

We looked at WALLHACK's entry into the keyboard market earlier while tracking peripheral launches. The K-001 ships with no listed price or availability date at this time. Buyers should watch for future announcements regarding pricing and release .
