1STPLAYER has released the NEO108 V2, an updated mechanical keyboard that targets competitive gamers with a significant speed upgrade. The V2 model raises the polling rate to 8kHz in both USB-C and 2.4GHz wireless modes, which reduces input lag for faster reaction times. This change matters to players who rely on precise timing in fast-paced games.
