0 comments

8Bitdo, known for its retro-inspired gaming accessories, has launched the Retro 108 three-mode mechanical keyboard, marking the latest addition to its lineup of retro-styled peripherals. Available in two classic color variants, the Retro 108 continues 8Bitdo’s nostalgic design language, reminiscent of vintage gaming consoles, while delivering modern features tailored to enthusiasts and retro gaming fans alike.

 

The Retro 108 keyboard comes in “N” and “Fami” color versions, each carefully chosen to evoke iconic gaming consoles of the past. Both versions feature a full-key layout complemented by a unique control panel in the upper left corner. This panel allows users to seamlessly manage connection modes, control volume, remap keys, and more, making the keyboard an adaptable choice for both work and play. On the opposite corner, a power indicator keeps users informed of the device's battery status.

 

Built with a top-mount structure for a stable and responsive typing experience, the Retro 108 supports hot-swappable switches, making it easy to customize the feel of individual keys without the need for soldering. The keyboard comes equipped with the Kaihua BOX white V2 switch, known for its durability and tactile response. For a refined look and feel, the Retro 108 is also outfitted with high-strength PBT keycaps, featuring a sublimation printing process that mimics the MDA profile, ensuring a satisfying typing experience with resistance to wear and shine.

 

The Retro 108 is powered by a 2000mAh lithium-ion battery that provides up to 200 hours of use on a single charge, offering extended convenience for users who may use the keyboard across different devices throughout the day. Connectivity is another highlight, as the Retro 108 offers three distinct connection modes: wired USB, Bluetooth, and 2.4GHz wireless, providing flexible options to fit a range of setups. This versatility allows it to be used seamlessly across computers, tablets, and even gaming consoles that support keyboard inputs.

 

8Bitdo’s retro keyboard line includes programmable "super buttons," and the Retro 108 features a pair of these customizable keys, allowing users to set specific functions or gaming shortcuts. The keyboard also provides three free "super jacks" for connecting compatible 8Bitdo accessories like super joysticks and ABXY key modules. These customizable inputs increase the keyboard’s adaptability, offering users an edge in gaming or productivity applications.

 

The 8Bitdo Retro 108 three-mode mechanical keyboard is available for pre-sale in overseas markets at a price of $119.99. As interest in retro-styled hardware continues to grow, this latest release reinforces 8Bitdo’s commitment to blending classic design with versatile functionality, appealing to both casual users and retro gaming enthusiasts alike.
