Best Wooting Keyboard Alternatives

Wooting keyboards are really great. Three guys from Netherlands made a fantastic product for gamers with their Wooting One, Wooting Two HE and Wooting 60HE bringing the magnetic switches with rapid trigger to a mass audience. In 2024 they have released Wooting 80HE, a somewhat TKL/80% layout keyboard with 8k polling rate, but there’s been also a few other keyboards that are just as good for lower price. For the price Wooting 60HE/80HE is selling for, it’s not worth it in my opinion.

If you are looking for an alternative keyboard, be it for a different layout, design, customizability or price then there’s a really big and growing market of Hall Effect keyboards with Rapid Trigger, Dynamic Keystrokes and custom actuation settings. Lots of quality products from less known brands from China, but also bigger players are making their magnetic keyboards.

So what are the top alternatives to Wooting 60HE or Two He?

Monsgeek FUN60 Ultra

MonsGeek FUN60 Ultra 22

This is a perfect alternative to Wooting 60HE. Released in 2025, same 60% layout, but even better latency thanks to the TMR sensor and 8000Hz polling rate, in my tests the latency was around 0.5ms which is lower than Wooting. All the features like Rapid Trigger, adjustable actuation and Snap Tap are there. And it’s only $74.99.

MCHOSE Jet 75

Released in March 2025, Mchose Jet 75 is another very cheap option starting at $59 for the most budget version. Latency is as good as that of Wooting 80HE and the build quality is surprisingly solid, it’s plastic though. I would recommend the version with Kailh magnetic switch as this is the one I’ve tested – they are accurate, not wobbly and pretty loud.

Keychron Q1/Q3/Q5/Q6 HE

Keychron Q5 HE 14 scaled

If you prefer going with a big brand then Keychron has four very similar keyboards: Q1 HE, Q3 HE, Q5 HE and Q6 HE. I have reviewed the Q5 HE which is 96% and the others are exactly the same but with 75%, TKL and 100% layout. The latency is very close to Wooting 60HE, I like the OSA keycaps and the webapp is pretty great to use. These are more expensive than Wooting though.

Nuphy Air60 HE or Air75 HE

Nuphy Air60 HE. The only one of two low-profile HE keyboard available at this moment (the other one is the newer Nuphy Air75 HE). It’s very similar to the popular Nuphy Air60, but with magnetic switches — and you can choose Gateron magnetic Jades or Jades Pro. Very reasonably priced at $119.95.

DrunkDeer A75 Pro

DrunkDeer A75PRO 1

DrunkDeer A75 was always claimed to be a budget alternative to Wooting 60HE. In 2024 they upgraded it to a A75 Pro version with a aluminium case and a few improvements. It’s only $120. It has very good latency, good software and a great price. Definitely worth it if you’re conscious about your budget.

In 2025 Drunkdeer has released yet another upgrade to this lineup with A75 Ultra and A75 Master. They are supposed to have the lowest latency to date (A75 Master is tested to have 0.12ms) and they use Gateron Jade Pro or TTC POM switches now instead of Raesha ones.

Keydous NJ98-CP V2 HE

Keydous NJ98-CP V2 HE is a great alternative to the Wooting Two HE. It’s cheaper, it’s got the 96% layout, Kailh Ice Cream V2 magnetic switches, aluminum or brass plate (I recommend the brass one), it’s wireless and it’s possible to use it also with regular mechanical switches due to PCB accepting magnetic and 3/5pin switches.

Akko MOD007v3 HE

MOD007v3 HE Year of Dragon magnetic keyboard

Akko MOD007v3 HE. Once again, a very nice design. Custom Akko Cream Yellow Magnetic Switches, 8000Hz polling rate, priced at $180. Decent software with features such as toggle key and keyboard deadzone setting, Definitely worth a look.

Steelseries Apex Pro/Mini/TKL

If you prefer going with a big brand then Steelseries has three keyboards with magnetic switches and rapid trigger feature. 60% Mini version, 75% TKL version and 100% Apex Pro.

Epomaker HE75 Mag

Epomaker HE75 Mag is another decent choice, it’s quite affordable at $99 and it has all the gaming features you’d need to have from a magnetic switch keyboard. It’s also wireless.

  1. That’s great to hear. Did the software have an option for jade pros? I saw in reviews TTC uranus etc. switches as an option on the drop down.
