AULA's magnetic keyboards come in three lines, and the names hint at the difference once you know the code. WIN is the small one, HERO is the one with the glowing strip on top, and AG is the one milled from aluminium. Beneath those headlines sit real differences in layout, switches, connection and build. This guide walks through the AULA magnetic keyboards line by line, then lines them up so you can pick.

Quick Answer

The AULA WIN68 is the compact 65% line, HERO is the 75% line with a 36-LED light box, and AG75 is the 75% line in a full CNC aluminium case. All three use magnetic switches with Rapid Trigger and poll at 8000Hz. The HERO 75 HE is the only tri-mode board of the three lines; the WIN68, HERO 84 HE and AG75 connect by cable. Evetech prices them from R449 for the WIN68 HE to R2,799 for the AG75 Pro in Armor Silver, and every one of them carries 2 years of local warranty at Evetech.

🧲 What the three lines share

Before the differences, the common ground. Every board in these lines uses magnetic (Hall Effect) switches, which measure how far a key has travelled instead of waiting for a metal contact to close. That is what makes adjustable actuation and Rapid Trigger possible: you choose where along the travel a key fires, and a key resets the moment you start lifting it.

All of them poll at 8000Hz, all are hot-swappable, and all are set up through AULA's browser-based driver rather than a heavy desktop app.

⌨️ WIN68: the compact line

Layout and build

The WIN68 is a 65% board with 68 keys in an ANSI US layout. It keeps the arrow cluster and moves the function row and commands like Home and End onto Fn combinations. For the HE, AULA lists a metal positioning plate, Poron sandwich foam and a bottom foam layer inside a thickened plastic shell. Lighting is per-key and south-facing. It is wired, over a detachable USB-C cable.

HE and MAX

The two editions share that frame and differ in switches and features.

  • WIN68 HE: Gray Wood switches at 32gf actuation and 50gf bottom-out, with 3.4mm of travel. Rapid Trigger and per-key actuation are set in the web driver. AULA packs two spare switches and a keycap puller in the box.
  • WIN68 MAX: Wing Chun switches at 36gf and 49gf, with Rapid Trigger precision of 0.01mm and a dead zone that can go to zero. On top of that it carries Mod-Tap, SOCD, DKS, Toggle and Rapid Switch. Polling steps through seven levels up to 8000Hz, and the scan rate reaches 32kHz on a single key.

Who it suits

Players who want maximum mouse room and do not miss a dedicated function row. The HE is the gentle entry into magnetic switches; the MAX is for anyone who wants the competitive modes.

💡 HERO: the light-box line

What unites them

Both HERO boards are 75% layouts with 84 keys, keeping the full function row and arrows. Each has a 36-LED RGB light box running across its top, plus south-facing per-key lighting, and both scan at 48kHz across all keys and up to 128kHz on a single key.

HERO 75 HE

The tri-mode member. Beyond its USB-C lead, it pairs with a 2.4GHz dongle or with up to three Bluetooth devices, and holds 8000Hz on the receiver as well as the cable. Actuation adjusts from 0.1mm to 3.4mm at 0.005mm precision. The Black edition uses Stormrise switches; Orange and Green use Spiritcloud. AULA builds it on a boat-style chassis with an aluminium alloy plate, five dampening layers and PBT double-shot keycaps, and fits an 8000mAh battery. It measures 313 x 139 x 43mm and weighs about 980g.

HERO 84 HE

The wired member, in White/Purple. It uses pre-lubed Black King switches at 33gf actuation and 53gf bottom-out, with actuation adjustable from 0.1mm to 3.4mm in 0.01mm steps. Five dampening layers sit inside. AULA's web driver runs in a Chromium browser, and the board has Mac and Windows modes.

Who it suits

Players who want the function row, and a desk with a strong lighting feature. Choose the 75 HE if you need wireless, the 84 HE if a cable suits you fine.

🔩 AG75: the aluminium line

Build

The AG75 is built like a piece of machinery. The case is full CNC-machined aluminium, sandblasted at 220 grit and anodised. Inside sits a carbon fibre plate over six dampening layers, and the base has a switchable spring shock-absorbing structure you can turn on or off. A ball-catch quick release opens the case without tools. It weighs about 1532g and measures 319.8 x 143.8 x 42.1mm, with 81 keys in a 75% layout.

Performance

The AG75 leads with 0.001mm Rapid Trigger precision and a true zero dead zone. A triple-MCU design drives 8000Hz polling with a 256kHz full-key scan rate. Its driver lists SOCD, DKS, Multi-Point Trigger, Mod-Tap, Toggle, END and Rapid Switch, plus macros. Lighting is twin-star, north and south-facing, with 170 LEDs.

Pro and Ultra

The AG75 Pro comes in Shadow Grey and Armor Silver with LEOBOG Frostcore switches. The AG75 Ultra comes in Battle Shine Orange with LEOBOG Eight Treasures switches and PBT dye-sub and transparent keycaps. The case, plate, polling and Rapid Trigger precision are shared.

Who it suits

Players who want a premium, heavy board that stays put, and the finest Rapid Trigger control in AULA's line-up.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do the two WIN68 editions differ?

The HE runs lighter Gray Wood switches. The MAX moves to Wing Chun switches, 0.01mm Rapid Trigger precision and extra modes such as SOCD and DKS.

Should I pick the HERO 75 HE or the HERO 84 HE?

The 75 HE if you want a receiver and Bluetooth; the 84 HE if you are happy on a cable. Both have the light box.

Why is the AG75 so heavy?

Its full CNC aluminium case and carbon fibre plate bring it to about 1.5kg, which keeps it planted on the desk.

Which line gives the deepest key-mode menu?

The AG75, whose driver lists seven modes including Rapid Switch, plus macros.

Are any of these boards wireless?

Only the HERO 75 HE. The rest connect by cable.

Do the three lines share one driver?

They all use AULA's browser-based driver, called AULA HUB on the HERO 75 HE and web HUB on the AG75.
