IQUNIX Reviews: Are IQUNIX Keyboards Worth It? HLPLANET's Test Results
IQUNIX is a keyboard maker, led by founder Levan Li, known for premium Hall Effect boards (EV and EZ series) and low-profile wireless boards (Magi and MQ series). HLPLANET (hlplanet.com) has reviewed five IQUNIX keyboards and compared its low-profile range. As of October 2026 every verdict is positive; the main complaint is price.
What does IQUNIX make?
IQUNIX has two main families, both with CNC aluminium cases and generous accessory bundles:
- Hall Effect gaming keyboards: EV63 HE, EV63 Ghost in the Shell Edition, EZ75, plus the announced EC75 and EV63 EDG Edition
- Low-profile keyboards: Magi65, Magi75, Magi96 (each also in a Pro version) and the MQ80
HLPLANET's EZ75 review describes the brand as known for strong packaging, bold designs and ongoing firmware updates.
IQUNIX EV63 HE review: a 63% board for competitive players?
Yes. The IQUNIX EV63 HE review finds it strong in both performance and build quality, aimed at players who prioritise speed and accuracy. It costs $169 at the IQUNIX store.
- Pros: 8000 Hz polling, 0.01 mm Rapid Trigger, three SOCD modes, Smart Switch Adaptation for hot-swapped switches, three onboard profiles, no-install web software.
- Cons: no gamepad mode, no adjustable feet.
- Suits: shooter players who want arrow keys in a 60%-sized footprint.
IQUNIX EV63 Ghost in the Shell Edition review: worth $249.99?
For fans and design lovers, yes. HLPLANET's EV63 Ghost in the Shell Edition review scores it 9/10 with an Editor's Choice badge, calling it one of the best-built and best-looking Hall Effect keyboards available without mods.

It is the most well-rounded. The IQUNIX EZ75 review carries an Editor's Choice badge and calls it an excellent choice for competitive players, though expensive.
- Pros: excellent Hall Effect performance, 8000 Hz polling, well-tuned gasket-mount acoustics, double-shot PBT keycaps, Magnetic X Ultra switches, EZ 3.0 web software.

IQUNIX MQ80 review: the best low-profile keyboard?
It is one of the top-tier choices. HLPLANET's IQUNIX MQ80 review says it shows low-profile boards can match traditional mechanical keyboards for typing feel. Price: $159.

IQUNIX Magi75 review: a low-profile endgame?
Close to it. The Magi75 review calls it an excellent low-profile 75% keyboard for people who don't need the Pro's knob and media buttons, at around $140.
- Pros: premium feel, good Kailh Gold Red switches and PBT keycaps, ANSI and ISO options, travel case, tri-mode wireless.
