Hi, Geekhack! We are introducing the market's first split-top enclosure concept, this enabling detachable blockers design to be implemented, means the options of default 60%, WKL or HHKB layouts is now available all in one keyboard. This split-top mounting mechanism not only cuts down manufacturing costs making the price for Z60 stays in a budget build region, also enabling it to have a contrast of different material textures aesthetically.Rendered ImageE-White with WKL blockers
