NZXT is more commonly known for its PC cases, but the brand released its first keyboard a few years ago to relative acclaim. The NZXT Function Elite MiniTKL is the next step, a $199.99 deck kitted out with industry-darling Hall effect switches and a compact form factor.
That’s a premium piece of kit - more expensive than some of the best gaming keyboards on the market, so it’s got a lot to live up to. Considering its price point puts it in direct competition with the Asus ROG Azoth and SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL Gen 3, two options regularly found at around $200, NZXT isn’t playing around. I’ve spent the last two weeks zipping around these clickers, to see just where it stands in a particularly competitive market.
