The Vissles V84 is a tempting compact keyboard with high-quality keycaps, the option to swap out switches on a whim, and reliable performance. It's let down by unintuitive controls and software limitations.

Vissles might not be a household name when it comes to keyboards, but they could be one day; the V84 is a high-quality keyboard at a sensible price, implementing Vissles’ own specially-designed VS II key switches for quiet but snappy responsiveness when typing or gaming.
