Third-party reviews

What we like about Aula F87 Pro V2

  • Excellent value for money in the budget mechanical keyboard market.
  • Outstanding battery life powered by a massive 10,000mAh capacity.
  • Very high 8,000Hz polling rate which provides extremely fast and responsive inputs for competitive gaming.
  • Pleasing, smooth, and 'creamy' or 'thocky' stock typing sound right out of the box due to five layers of sound-absorbing foam.
  • Comfortable and soft typing feel thanks to a flexible, gasket-mounted internal structure.
  • Highly versatile tri-mode connectivity allowing easy switching between 2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth, and wired USB-C.
  • Fun and customizable LED dot-matrix display screen alongside vibrant RGB backlighting.
  • Fully hot-swappable PCB configuration making it easy to swap out and customize switches without soldering.

What we don't like about Aula F87 Pro V2

  • The companion software user interface is poorly scaled, small, and difficult to read.
  • The all-plastic case design lacks a premium aluminum feel and has noticeable flex.
  • Stock keycaps on some variants do not feature translucent legends, preventing the RGB lighting from shining through them in the dark.
  • The keyboard structure can be notoriously difficult to open up for physical modding or deep maintenance.
  • The magnetic storage slot for the wireless dongle is loose, making it easy to accidentally lose the receiver.
  • The typing sound profile can be inconsistent, with clackier alpha keys contrasting against much thockier modifiers.
  • The physical weight is quite heavy (around 1kg), making it less practical for on-the-go portability.

Verdict

The Aula F87 Pro V2 is a high-performance Tenkeyless (TKL) mechanical keyboard featuring a gasket-mounted structure and tri-mode connectivity (Bluetooth, 2.4GHz, and USB-C). It is distinguished by an industry-leading 8,000Hz polling rate and a massive 10,000mAh battery that supports long-term wireless use. Key hardware includes a hot-swappable PCB, pre-lubricated Leobog Graywood V3 or X3 linear switches, and five-layer internal sound-dampening foam (including PO and IXPE) for a signature 'creamy' sound profile. Its aesthetics are defined by south-facing RGB lighting with a 360° light strip and a unique customizable dot-matrix LED screen. Main pros are its exceptionally low latency (0.125ms), extensive battery life, and high-quality stock typing feel. Major cons include a bulky plastic build that lacks a premium metal feel and software that can be difficult to navigate due to scaling and UI readability issues.
