ZEN75: The First Low-Profile Keyboard with Ceramic Keycaps

About this project

Low-profile keyboards chase thinness with flimsy plastic caps and hollow sound. Ceramic keycaps have a cult following — jade-warm touch, pure acoustics — but nobody had put them in a low-profile board. CERAKEY's ZEN75 is billed as the world's first low-profile mechanical keyboard with ceramic keycaps: a 75% layout, ceramic caps on durable PC stems, Kailh Firefly POM switches, and full hot-swap. The gasket mount layers a PC plate, IXPE and Poron foam for a soft, dampened bottom-out. Wired, 2.4G and Bluetooth 5.0 tri-mode, QMK/VIA remapping, and Mac/Windows/iOS/Android support round it out — from the team that still holds Kickstarter's most-funded keycap record. Launched in May 2025, the project drew 1,166 backers and raised about HK$1,079,000 (~$137,000) against a HK$50,000 goal — about 2,157% funded.
