MonsGeek’s first aluminum keyboard features magnetic switches and is also backward compatible with 3-pin mechanical switches.

Additionally, with magnetic switches, users can easily customize the actuation distance, which is especially useful for gamers seeking rapid actions at their fingertips, particularly in FPS games, as demonstrated by the following functions:

Rapid Trigger
Dynamic Keystrokes

Note: The M1 HE is not compatible with QMK/VIA, please perform the customizations through the MonsGeek Driver.

Adjustable Actuation Distance

These magnetic switches allow users to adjust every key’s actuation point from 0.2mm to 3.8mm in 0.1mm increments, which offers different kinds of pressing for gaming or typing.

Rapid Trigger (RT)

Rapid Trigger dynamically changes the keys’ actuation and deactivation points. Through the MonsGeek Driver, users can choose “All Buttons” or “Per Button” customization modes, as well as activate “Non-stop Rapid Trigger” for near-instant key response. This gives FPS gamers a competitive edge in fast-paced gameplay.

For example, when gamers enable RT, they can achieve “Counter-Strafe“ in VALORANT games.

Dynamic Keystrokes (DKS)

Pressing a key can trigger four different key operations.

Depending on your keypress force: a light press triggers action 1, a deeper press activates action 2, and releasing the key also supports a two-stage key setting.

On-board Memory

With on-board memory, users can save their preferred settings without keeping the software or drivers on, ensuring easy access to their personalized configurations.

PORON Plate Foam

Aluminum Plate

M1 HE utilizes an aluminum plate for a stiffer and higher-pitched sound profile, for those who want to be heard instead of pc plate.

M1 HE magnetic switches keyboard utilizes single-color plate-mounted stabilizers, which effectively minimizes keycap wobbling.

3mm PORON Case Foam

MonsGeek M1 HE has undergone an upgrade, transitioning to Poron case foam with superior elasticity compared to M1.

*Disclaimer: Using thicker foam may reduce flex, whether to include it or not is down to your personal preference

VHB Insulation Layer

A VHB insulation layer has been added to the bottom case in order to prevent any short-circuit issues. It’s rare for these issues to occur but we want to add extra protection.
