Iqunix has made an official announcement about the launch of the EV63, which is a sequel to the highly regarded EZ63 Hall-effect keyboard. In our review of the Iqunix EZ63, we highlighted its superb typing experience, impressive build quality with features for enthusiasts, and a top-notch accessory set. Now, Iqunix is set to bring all the elements we loved from the EZ63 into the new EV63, its latest Hall-effect gaming keyboard. The EV63 is expected to be released on August 6, 2025, and Iqunix has shared many design details and features of this new model.

Design Similarities and Changes

The design of the Iqunix EV63 appears to be quite similar to that of the EZ63, featuring dual rails held together by screw-on side panels. However, this time the company has introduced a Cherry lip, which is a small chamfer on the front edge, to slightly lower the keyboard’s front height. The new Hall-effect keyboard maintains the same 8 kHz polling rate and 16 kHz PCB scanning rate as the EZ63, which is definitely a nice feature, even if it isn’t absolutely necessary.

Enhanced Performance Features

Nonetheless, the EV63 will come with upgraded Hall sensors, which, according to Iqunix, can enhance the voltage for better sensitivity and accuracy. Combined with the M.A.T 2.0 algorithm that was first introduced with the EZ80, the EV63 aims to achieve a rapid trigger accuracy of 0.01 mm and an impressive latency of just 0.125 ms. Additionally, the new Magnetic X Pro switch has a revamped opaque housing and a closed-bottom design that resembles the Gateron Jade Pro switches, which currently retail for $56 on Amazon for a set of 70 switches.

Color Options and Keycap Quality

The EV63 will come in three different color options: black and pink with solid double-shot PBT keycaps, black with transparent frosted PC keycaps, and white with transparent frosted PC keycaps. It seems that only the black models will feature a forged carbon fibre accent along the Cherry lip, while the white keyboard opts for a more minimalist look with a solid white panel. The double-shot PBT keycaps on the EV63 look identical to those we tested on the EZ63, and they are undoubtedly some of the best keycaps found on gaming keyboards — they are thick, have clear lettering, and a pleasant texture.

Minimal Branding and Pricing Expectations

All three variants showcase very subtle branding, with just a small “EV63” logo located in the top right corner, making them suitable options for minimalist gaming arrangements. While the exact pricing for the EV63 has yet to be disclosed, it would be surprising if it launched for less than $180–200, especially considering the clear keycaps and custom switches it features.

We recently took a look at the Iqunix EZ63 Hall-effect gaming keyboard. While its hardware and build quality make it a strong contender for the top Hall-effect gaming keyboard, we found that the software and firmware left something to be desired. Now, a new beta firmware update for both the Iqunix EZ63 and EZ60 addresses a common issue noted among the Hall-effect keyboard series, resolves several bugs, and enhances the Rapid Trigger feature. This update brings some of the promised features from Iqunix that were expected by the end of Q2, with just the macro functionality pending. Users who are already on a previous beta firmware version will receive a prompt to update when they visit beta.iqunix.com. It’s important to note that this update will reset the keyboard mapping and other personalized settings.

New Profiles Available

As of February 27, users with the beta firmware on their Iqunix Hall-effect keyboards can now access three distinct keyboard profiles: Custom, Office, and Esports. Each profile comes with its own Rapid Trigger and actuation force settings.

In our review of the EZ63, we pointed out the absence of a profile-switching feature. This limitation meant users were locked into the settings they configured for specific gaming sessions. Consequently, it turned the EZ63 into a gaming-only keyboard if you tailored things like actuation points and Rapid Trigger for different games. This made it challenging to fine-tune the keyboard for general gaming use. The introduction of profiles does help alleviate this problem, but it still feels like a temporary fix; having several fully customizable profiles would be a better solution.

New Features and Updates

With the new beta firmware, EZ63 and EZ60 users can also use a new hot-key to toggle SOCD on and off without needing to access the browser-based software. This is especially useful for gamers playing titles that have banned this contested feature. Activating SOCD with the Fn+Q shortcut will cause the WASD keys’ RGB lights to glow green for a short time, while turning it off will make them temporarily red.

Another interesting feature introduced in the latest beta firmware is Berserk Mode, which allows for a Rapid Trigger sensitivity of 0.005 mm after the actuation point. Iqunix has mentioned that this feature is still being tested, but they aim to refine it in the future. Currently, this setting is only available with the Gateron Magnetic Jade Pro switches (currently priced at $57.99 on Amazon), which are the priciest switch option for the EZ60 and EZ63. There’s still no word on whether the Star Trail or other Gateron switch types will also support the Berserk Mode feature.

Community Feedback on Discord

Iqunix has been actively engaging with users on Discord about these updates and features.
