MonsGeek M2 V5 HE – Magnetic Keyboard 98 Keys 1800 Compact, 8K Polling

159,90  Inc. VAT

Key Features:

  • 98 Keys 1800 Compact – Full Functionality, Reduced Footprint – Numpad, function queue, arrow keys and navigation, all in a more compact layout than the standard full-size. Hall Effect precision without giving up a single key.
  • Rapid Trigger 0.005mm & Scan Rate 32.000Hz – Actuation and reset in steps of 0.005mm. At 32K scanning, re-action registers before most keyboards have finished processing the initial press.
  • Polling Rate 8,000Hz – Wired and 2.4GHz Wireless – Full 8K on both connections. No latency penalty for playing wirelessly.
  • DKS + Snap Key (SOCD) – DKS maps four actions to a single key at two depths of pressure and two release points. Snap Key prioritizes the most recent directional input – clean counter-strafes without ambiguous outputs.
  • Akko AstroAim Switches – Cross-Compatible – Pre-lubricated linear, 35gf, deep, bass acoustics. Swaps with any third-party N-pole magnetic switch, key by key, without changing keyboards.

MonsGeek M2 V5 HE – Magnetic Keyboard 98 Keys 1800 Compact, 8K Polling

The MonsGeek M2 V5 HE is the answer to a question that most Hall Effect keyboards ignore: what if you need a numpad? It brings the same Rapid Trigger 0.005mm, 32K scan rate and 8K wireless polling of the M1 V5 HE to a 98-key 1800 compact layout – full function row, numpad, arrow keys and navigation, in a footprint significantly smaller than a standard full-size keyboard.

Rapid Trigger & Scan Rate architecture

Trigger and reset points are configurable in 0.005mm steps over 3.5mm of total travel. At a scan rate of 32,000Hz, even a 0.1mm elevation is resolved in multiple scanning cycles – which makes the RT below 0.01mm stable rather than erratic. 15 dedicated logic ICs offload auxiliary tasks from the Arm Cortex-M4 MCU, keeping TProcessing consistent under burst input without the architectural bottleneck that affects cheaper 32K implementations.

RT Stabilizer mode filters out unintentional jitter at sensitivities below 0.01mm, without affecting intentional inputs.

8K Polling Rate – Wired and 2.4GHz Wireless

8,000Hz polling is active on both USB-C and 2.4GHz wireless. Bluetooth drops to 125Hz and covers switching between devices (up to 3 via Fn+E/R/T) – not competitive sessions. 8K wireless polling on a full 98-key keyboard is unusual at this price point.

DKS, Snap Key & Advanced Input

DKS (Dynamic Key Switch) maps four independent actions to a single key – light pressure activates action one, deeper pressure activates action two, with two configurable release points. Useful for condensing actions in intensive workflows or complex game bindings.

Snap Key manages SOCD by reporting the most recently pressed directional input, allowing for clean counter-strafing in CS2 and Valorant. Mod-Tap adds dual-function keys (tap vs. hold), and Toggle Key turns any key into a persistent on/off switch.

Akko AstroAim Switches & Cross-Compatibility

Linear, factory pre-lubricated, 35gf initial force, 3.5mm travel. POM stem and PA66 housing produce a deeper, more bassy sound than most Hall Effect switches – noticeably less hollow. Cross-compatible with any N-pole downward-facing magnetic switch from third-party brands, with per-key mixing and automatic calibration via MonsGeek Driver.

Construction & Acoustics

Gasket mount with PORON plate foam and IXPE switch pads for a damped bottom-out. The plate-mounted stabilizers are demagnetized to prevent magnetic field interference on the larger keys. The ball-catch quick-release system opens the case without tools.

⚠️ Compatibility Notice: Magnetic switches only – MX mechanical switches are NOT supported. For a keyboard that runs magnetic and mechanical switches at the same time, see the MonsGeek M1 V5 TMR.

⚠️ Software Note: Configuration exclusively via MonsGeek Driver (browser-based). QMK and VIA are not supported.
