Kwumsy K3: Mechanical keyboard with integrated touchscreen, dock, SSD and rotary control also available on Amazon
The Kwumsy K3 is a mechanical keyboard with a huge range of functions, which is now available via Amazon. The system even has its own screen and a rotary control for quick volume control.
The Kwumsy K3 is a feature-rich keyboard that was originally funded as part of a Kickstarter campaign, but is now commercially available and offered not only by the manufacturer, but also by Amazon. Both delivery and shipping can be carried out via Amazon, which promises both quick delivery and rather uncomplicated processing of warranty cases.
The keyboard is equipped with a touchscreen with a screen diagonal of an impressive 13 inches and a resolution of 1920 x 720. The touchscreen can process up to ten simultaneous entries and the brightness is rated at 300 cd/m². Videos or controls can be displayed on the touchscreen. The screen angle can be adjusted to suit your own preferences.
The keyboard also functions as a hub system and not only has a card reader, but also a slot for SSDs. The 330 x 295 millimeter and 39.5 millimeter high keyboard also has a USB Type C port, which can be used to connect MacBooks or Samsung Galaxy smartphones. Two USB 3.0 ports are available.
Fundamentally, the Kwumsy K3 is a mechanical keyboard, but the buttons can be easily replaced, allowing users to customize the trigger characteristics with suitable buttons. The keyboard has 82 keys, so there is no numpad. Lastly, the volume can be easily controlled via the rotary control on the top right.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

Growing up in regional Australia, I first became acquainted with computers in my early teens after a broken leg from a football (soccer) match temporarily condemned me to a predominately indoor lifestyle. Soon afterwards I was building my own systems. Now I live in Germany, having moved here in 2014, where I study philosophy and anthropology. I am particularly fascinated by how computer technology has fundamentally and dramatically reshaped human culture, and how it continues to do so.
