Yunzii Wood 68 and 84 debut with tri-mode connectivity and Candy linear switches

Yunzii has expanded its portfolio with the launch of the Wood 68 and Wood 84, two mechanical keyboards that swap traditional plastic or aluminium housings for polished walnut wood. These boards are designed for enthusiasts seeking an organic aesthetic without sacrificing modern gaming features. Both models feature an engraved walnut frame and a stable tray-mount internal structure designed to look as much like desk furniture as a high-end peripheral.

The series (via TechPowerUP) is split into two popular form factors to accommodate desks of different sizes and user needs. The Yunzii Wood 68 is a compact 65% layout with 68 keys, measuring 325.4 x 116.4 x 41.77 mm and weighing 767g. Meanwhile, the Yunzii Wood 84 offers a 75% layout with 84 keys, stepping up to a slightly taller frame and a heavier weight of 979g, with a dedicated function row. Both keyboards utilise high-quality double-shot PBT keycaps in a Cherry profile, which are highly resistant to oil and shine over long-term use.

Both boards feature Yunzii Candy linear switches, pre-lubed for a smooth typing experience. To ensure a refined acoustic profile, Yunzii has implemented internal sound dampening to eliminate the hollow sound often associated with wooden enclosures. The keyboards are fully hot-swappable, supporting both 3-pin and 5-pin switches, allowing users to customise their typing feel without soldering. A 4000 mAh battery powers both models, supporting Bluetooth, 2.4 GHz wireless, and wired USB-C connections with N-key rollover for reliable input during intense sessions.

Customisation is handled through Yunzii's dedicated software for Windows and macOS, or via a convenient online configurator for those who prefer not to install local drivers. The Wood 68 is currently priced at $89.99, while the Wood 84 retails for $92.99.

KitGuru says: With the move toward materials like wood, do you think the industry is finally moving away from the “gamer” aesthetic as the standard?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
