HONG KONG, June 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Following a successful first collaboration in August 2024, innovative peripheral brand MCHOSE and global tech review powerhouse Unbox Therapy (UT) are proud to announce the launch of their first co-branded keyboard, the UT98 Mechanical Keyboard, debuting on Kickstarter on July 17, 2025.

The partnership began when Lewis received a sample of the MCHOSE GX87 keyboard last August. Impressed by its soft, bouncy typing experience, he featured it in a review video. The response was overwhelming—over 5 million views across platforms and widespread user praise.

Among the praise, some viewers also highlighted a key improvement area: the audible keystroke sound of the GX87 could be distracting in quieter environments like offices, libraries, or shared workspaces. In response, MCHOSE and UT set out to create a new keyboard that would retain the GX87's tactile excellence—but make it quieter.

After months of co-development and refinement, the UT98 keyboard is ready for launch. It comes with two switch options for different preferences.

  • Silent Peach V3 Switch – Ultra-quiet for a noise-free experience, ideal for shared spaces and professional use.
  • Icy Creamsicle Switch – A most popular switch from MCHOSE keyboards, known for its buttery smooth and creamy feel.

Beyond expected premium essentials like Gasket Mount, Hot-Swappable Switch, and N-Key Rollover, the UT98 features an aluminum knob for smooth audio control, including one-press mute/unmute. It also offers a one-click calculator key (for Windows only) to launch your calculator instantly for boosting productivity.

Design with the Unbox Therapy DNA

Visually, the UT98 is a tribute to the Unbox Therapy brand. After several iterations and design refinements, the final keyboard features keycap legends in the same typeface as the Unbox Therapy logo, ensuring a sleek, unified aesthetic. The keyboard comes in two colorways:

  • Classic Therapy – A sleek black-and-white colorway that embodies modern minimalism, inspired by the timeless contrast of a panda.
  • Retro Therapy – A bold design featuring Unbox Therapy's signature orange, echoing the channel's iconic visual identity.

To complement the keyboard and deliver a full Unbox Therapy experience, MCHOSE has also developed a matching co-branded wrist rest and mouse pad, both infused with distinctive Unbox Therapy design elements.

Kickstarter Launch & Early Access Offer

The UT98 officially launches on Kickstarter on July 17, 2025. From June 16 to July 16, early backers can reserve exclusive VIP perks for just $2—and unlock discounts of up to 36% when the campaign goes live. Don't miss your shot to be part of something big.
