Gasket Structure Explained

The X85PRO features an advanced 5-layer gasket-mount design. This structure incorporates sound-absorbing foam layers between the top case, switches, PCB, and base. This design minimizes acoustic resonance and provides a softer, more consistent typing feel, often described as "creamy" or "thocky."
