The OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro is the brand’s first mechanical keyboard. The new keyboard from OnePlus features a unique design with marble-mallow keycaps made of a patented thermoplastic elastomer that offers a comfortable and springy feel with every keystroke.

It has an aluminum body which is quite lightweight. The gasket is designed for a more refined typing experience and satisfying sound. The keyboard also has a built-in holder and customizable options like hot-swappable switches and open-source firmware. OnePlus has teamed up with Keychron to bring compatibility with multiple operating systems, including macOS, Windows, and Linux, to their new keyboard.

It has two connectivity modes – Bluetooth and wired. To switch between the two, OnePlus has provided an Alert Slider-style toggle key. For a wireless connection, the keyboard is equipped with Bluetooth 5.1 that offers up to 10m of connectivity range. It has a 4,000mAh battery onboard that can last up to 100 hours at the lowest brightness setting. It uses a USB Type-C port for wired connection and charging, and the battery refills in about 5 hours.

The new OnePlus 81 Pro Keyboard comes in two shades of gray, dark and light, and is set to be released in April with pricing details to be announced near the launch date.
