MCHOSE and Unbox Therapy Collaborate on Debut Co-Branded Keyboard Release
The tech world is abuzz with the upcoming launch of the MCHOSE UT98 mechanical keyboard, a product of a unique collaboration between MCHOSE and Unbox Therapy. This innovative keyboard is set to hit Kickstarter on July 17, 2025, promising a quiet, comfortable, and stylish typing experience.
The UT98 keyboard offers two switch types to cater to different preferences: the Silent Peach V3 Switch, designed for ultra-quiet performance, ideal for professional or shared environments, and the Icy Creamsicle Switch, known for its buttery smooth and creamy feel, popular among MCHOSE keyboard users.
One of the standout features of the UT98 is its advanced gasket mount design, which includes five layers of sound-dampening materials. This design ensures smooth and quiet keystrokes with low vibration, making it perfect for those who value silence during their typing.
The UT98 keyboard offers versatile connectivity options, allowing users to connect via Bluetooth, USB-C, and a 2.4GHz RF USB dongle. The Bluetooth connection allows users to connect with up to three devices simultaneously, offering convenience and flexibility.
The UT98 keyboard also boasts a knurled rotary control that functions as a volume adjuster and can mute the computer's audio when pressed. Additionally, it features RGB backlighting with 16.8 million color options and RGB lighting with music rhythm, adding a touch of personalisation to your typing experience.
The UT98 keyboard adopts a 98% compact layout with a Cherry profile, numeric keypad, full row of function keys, and a cursor cluster. It also includes a dedicated key that will launch the Windows calculator, and modifier keys for macOS and Windows systems.
Early backers can secure a 36% discount on the launch special, with the discounted price for the UT98 keyboard being $89 plus shipping, while the regular price will be $139. The UT98 keyboard will be available in two colorways: Classic Therapy and Retro Therapy, each offering a unique aesthetic appeal.
MCHOSE has also produced matching and co-branded wrist rest and mouse pad to complement the UT98 keyboard. Early backers can visit the prelaunch page between June 16 and July 16 to reserve exclusive VIP perks for just $2 and unlock discounts up to 36% when the campaign goes live.
The collaboration between MCHOSE and Unbox Therapy was inspired by the success of the MCHOSE GX87 review by Unbox Therapy's Lewis Hilsenteger, which highlighted the need for a quieter version of the keyboard. The UT98 aims to build on the tactile excellence of the previous GX87 model while providing a quiet and comfortable typing experience.
With its quiet operation, versatile connectivity, customisable RGB lighting, and stylish design, the MCHOSE UT98 mechanical keyboard is set to redefine the standard for mechanical keyboards. Keep an eye out for its launch on Kickstarter on July 17, 2025.
The MCHOSE UT98 mechanical keyboard, a product of the unique collaboration between MCHOSE and Unbox Therapy, is a top-tier gadget that showcases advanced technology.
