Features

The Galatin Pro K19 is a 96% wireless mechanical keyboard. This is a full sized keyboard that gives users to a function row and numb pad, but presents in a compact package to maximize desk space. The keyboard comes in a beautiful mint green scheme, with a customizable LED screen and RGB backlight.

Customization

The Galatin Pro gives users an enormous amount of versatility with easy customizable options. The 95 keys can be easily swapped to not only fit your aesthetic, but fit your typing preference. Not that you would want to. The default Mint Mambo switches promise a smooth typing feel with the typing ASMR you want from a keyboard.

Both the RBG and LED screen can be customized through the official software to fit your desired aesthetic. Each of the 95 keys can be easily rebound and programmed for some added utility. Weather you need a few macros for your editing or short cuts for productivity, the Galatin Pro is ready to meet your every need.

Comfort

The Galatin Pro’s gasket is angled to meet most comfortable typing standards, but there is additional height options available for those who need it. The gasket houses 5 layers of sound absorbing pads to keep that typing ASMR thacky without waking up the whole neighborhood. The key layout has been designed is compact, without scarifying any comfort. Users will find a delightful typing experience hidden under the mint green layout.

Performance

The Galatin Pro supports three, fast connections modes: Bluetooth, wireless, and wired. The keyboard’s impressive 4000mAh battery supports long sessions with either of the fast wireless connections. The keyboard can seemlessly switch between connections with the easy to access, side switch. Whether you need a keyboard that will keep up with your efficient DPS rotation, or just need to pound out all that last minute homework, the Galatin Pro has you covered.

Sound Test

Review

The Galatin Pro is a solid affiordable keyboard, if you’ve never used a nicer keyboard. While it has a very cool aesthetic and layout, I found the typing experience a bit lacking. It isn’t completely unusable, but I’d rather be using the Antonium K745 Pro.

Quality

The Galatin Pro is a cute keyboard out of the box. The pieces look well machined, and the font is clear and legible. After using the keyboard, it does feel a little cheap. The keys feel like plastic, and while they don’t destroy my hands, you might want to invest in some better keycaps. The switches feel fine, and the typing sound is a little ugly, but beater of a keyboard.

Comfort

I am not a fan of the keyboard’s typing experience. It feels a little too crunchy, and I don’t like the feel of the cheap keycaps. However, if this is your budget, you can do a lot worse. While this isn’t a strictly ergonomic keyboard, it did not trigger my repetitive stress injury. I was able to enjoy long sessions with the Galatin Pro without any pain, which is a huge positive. While this isn’t a strictly ergonomic keyboard, it did not trigger my repetitive stress injury. One of the dangers of testing these budget keyboards is that they can leave my hands useless. I’ve cut tests short in the past, and I was pleasantly surprised when I didn’t have to this time around. I’ll still be switching back Antonium K745 Pro because I prefer the typing experience and gimick a little more, but the Galatin is still a solid option.

Gimmick

The Galatin Pro has a customizable LED screen that displays useful information like time, battery life, and connection type. I have never been to crazy about screens on my keyboard because I never look at them. Not that I was able to customize the screen in the first place. I was able to get the date and time, but I never got the GIF to work. I’m not buying this keyboard for the LED screen. I am buying this keyboard for the volume nob. I don’t know how much I miss having a volume mod until I am forced to use keyboards without one. The knob feels great, it is very responsive, and it controls my media. The knob steals the show, and it always gets a lot of use in my workflow.

Performance

I had no issues with the Galatin Pro out of the box. There was no noticeable latency or ghosting. The keyboard does include four extra switches in case any issues arise. I am happy to report, none ever during my week of hard typing. The Galatin Pro handled a few fast past shooters and a good amount of MMO grind without issue. I am not a pro player, but I didn’t notice any drop in perfrormance. The battery life is impressive and gave me about 9 hours of use on a single charge with all the lights on. I guess the LED is nice for keeping up with your battery life.

Conclusion

The Galatin Pro is a cool looking mechanical keyboard, especially at this budget. The colors are fun, and I like the compact design. You get a full sized keyboard, but it doesn’t feel like it takes up the same amount of space. I would probably swap out the keycaps for something nicer. This shouldn’t be a problem if you’ve never tried anything nicer. Galatin Pro is a solid starter mechanical keyboard that should fit most use cases until you are ready for the upgrade.
