Xiaomi has unveiled the MK71 Pro, a compact mechanical keyboard designed for both performance and aesthetics. Here’s a closer look at what it offers:
Compact Layout: The MK71 Pro features a 71-key layout, including full-size arrow keys, making it a space-efficient yet functional option for users.
Multimedia Module: A 1-inch display shows useful information like connection status, time, battery level, and RGB mode. Users can also set a custom background image.
Metal Rotary Control: Positioned next to the multimedia module, this control allows users to adjust the volume with ease.
Switches and Keycaps: The keyboard is equipped with TTC switches, offering a 30mm travel distance, with activation at 22mm. It also features ABS keycaps in brown or gray. The switches are hot-swappable, meaning users can replace them during use.
Connectivity: It supports USB, USB dongle, and Bluetooth connectivity. Additionally, it can pair with up to three Bluetooth devices simultaneously, making it easy to switch between them.
Battery Life: The MK71 Pro is powered by a 7,800 mAh battery, providing up to 143 hours of use without RGB lighting, or 71 hours with lighting enabled.
RGB Lighting: While the RGB lighting is more decorative due to the non-translucent keycaps, it still adds to the overall aesthetic.

The Xiaomi MK71 Pro is priced at 449 yuan (approx. $61) in China through Xiaomi Youpin. There is no official word yet on an international release.
