Are you a fan of ortholinear keyboards? If so, then you know that finding the perfect keycaps to complement your keyboard can be challenging. Luckily, DROP has come to the rescue with their DROP Planck Acute Keycaps. In this review, we’ll be taking a closer look at these keycaps and seeing how they measure up.

Design and Features

First up, let’s talk about design. The DROP Planck Acute Keycaps are designed to complement ortholinear keyboards like the Planck and Preonic, with slim legends and sharp angles. The result is a visually striking and unique set of keycaps that are sure to turn heads.

The keycaps are crafted from dye-subbed PBT, which is renowned for its durability and resistance to wear and tear. In addition to their tough exterior, these keycaps are sculpted in OEM profile and are crafted in MX mount style for Cherry MX switches and clones. This means that you can be assured of their compatibility with most common mechanical keyboard switches.

One thing that we love about the DROP Planck Acute Keycaps is their compact form factor. The ortholinear 40% Planck mechanical keyboard is already known for its compact layout, but the keycaps take things to the next level by minimizing finger travel. With every key within two units of your fingers on the home row, typing on the DROP Planck Acute Keycaps feels efficient and effortless.

The versatile colorway of the keycaps — black legends on a white background — makes it easy for these keycaps to match and enhance the look of any keyboard.

Overall, the design and features of the DROP Planck Acute Keycaps are top-notch. Their compatibility with Cherry MX switches and clones, combined with their durability and stylish design, make them an excellent choice for any ortholinear keyboard.
