Lenion R7 RT75 keyboard launches with Hall effect switches for $192

Lenovo introduced the Legion R7 RT75, a gaming keyboard designed for players who prioritize response speed and customization. The device targets competitive gamers by offering magnetic switches with Hall effect sensors, which allow for precise adjustments to key actuation points. This hardware shift matters because it lets users tune their inputs for either faster reaction times or specific tactile preferences, rather than relying on fixed mechanical profiles.

Magnetic switches and tri-mode connectivity define the new gaming peripheral

The keyboard adopts a compact 75% layout, which saves desk space while retaining essential function keys. It features a CNC-machined aluminium body that provides a sturdy foundation for intense gaming sessions. The R7 RT75 connects via tri-mode options, supporting wired USB-C, 2.4GHz wireless, and Bluetooth connections to suit different desk setups.
