Quick answer

The EPOMAKER x AULA F87 Pro is a compact 75% mechanical keyboard that pairs a gasket-mounted build with a single-key slotted PCB for a soft, stable typing feel. It's a solid pick if you want a space-saving layout without sacrificing comfort.

What makes the gasket design matter?

The F87 Pro uses a gasket design with an extended silicone pad. This cushions each keystroke, giving the board a soft, delicate touch and a slight elastic rebound. For long typing sessions, that flexibility can reduce finger fatigue compared to a rigid, tray-mounted frame.

How does the single-key slotted PCB affect typing?

A single-key slotted PCB means each switch sits in its own cutout rather than sharing a continuous slot. This isolates each key's movement, which can improve stability and give a more consistent feel across the board. Combined with the PC positioning plate, it helps keep the typing experience uniform whether you're gaming or writing.

What should you check before buying?

The F87 Pro is a 75% board, so it drops the number pad and some navigation keys. If you regularly input numbers or use dedicated F-keys for shortcuts, you may need to adapt or use layers. Also, the feel depends on the switch option you choose, so consider your preference for linear, tactile, or clicky feedback.

Frequently asked questions

Is the EPOMAKER x AULA F87 Pro a full-size keyboard?

No. It's a compact 75% keyboard, so it omits the number pad and some navigation keys. That makes it a good fit for smaller desks or for carrying between setups. Measure your desk space and confirm you're comfortable with the 75% layout before ordering.

What kind of typing feel can I expect?

The gasket design with the silicone pad delivers a soft, elastic feel on each keystroke. The single-key slotted PCB adds stability, so the board should feel consistent across all keys. If you prefer a firmer, clackier feel, this softer gasket style might not be your first choice.

Can I change the switches later?

The F87 Pro comes with a PC positioning board and a single-key slotted PCB, which typically supports switch swapping if the switches are hot-swappable. Check the product page for the specific switch compatibility before purchasing. Confirm hot-swap support and switch type on the official listing to ensure future customization.
