Our take on the YEYIAN Spark TKL Mechanical Gaming Keyboard 87-Key

The YEYIAN Spark TKL is a wired tenkeyless mechanical gaming keyboard with 87 keys, a QWERTY layout and linear switches. It is backlit and works with Windows and Mac. The compact layout leaves more room for mouse movement, which suits gamers with limited desk space. Against full-size boards it drops the number pad; against big-name TKL rivals it competes on a clean, simple feature set rather than extras like wireless or hot-swap sockets.
