Professional reviewers call it a strong, affordable entry into the modular keyboard space, praising its build quality and hot-swap feature while noting the lack of switches/keycaps and a modest software suite.
Users love the solid feel, easy switch swapping and vibrant RGB, but complain about the stiff cable, dim default lighting and the need to purchase switches separately.
Professional reviewers note that the AK980 packs a premium feature set-gasket mounting, PBT keycaps, hot-swappable switches, and an integrated TFT screen-into a mid-range price point, positioning it as a strong contender in the wireless mechanical keyboard market despite the lack of native QMK/VIA support.
Everyday users overwhelmingly appreciate the smooth typing feel, the novelty and usefulness of the TFT display and knob, and the impressive battery endurance, while recurring complaints focus on unclear battery specifications, occasional screen brightness issues, and the absence of thorough documentation.
