What happened
Epomaker has officially confirmed plans to launch a 75% version of its Galaxy series mechanical keyboards, extending a lineup that already covers the Galaxy100, Galaxy100 Lite, Galaxy80, Galaxy70, and Galaxy68.S1 The new keyboard was shown in a recent Epomaker livestream, and a product page is already live on the Epomaker online store.S1
Epomaker did not publish an official price at announcement. TechPowerUp noted that speculation would put the Galaxy75 somewhere around the $80-100 price point, since the Galaxy68 and Galaxy70 are listed at $99.99 on Epomaker's website and Amazon.S1 The Galaxy75 will be available only with Epomaker's Creamy Jade linear switches.S1
Unlike the Galaxy70 and Galaxy68, the Galaxy75 follows a more traditional 75% layout, with a key in the F13 position and a full four-key navigation column on the right edge.S1 The construction uses an aluminium chassis, a polycarbonate switch plate, and five layers of sound-damping foam, in a gasket-mounted case that Epomaker describes with the quoted phrase "dense thock".S1
The Galaxy75 will launch in three colors with coordinated Cherry profile keycap sets: black with black-and-orange dye-sublimated keycaps carrying cityscape printing, plus lavender and pink variants pairing dye-sublimated solid PBT keycaps with accent caps that use opaque ABS under a clear PC layer with UV-printed legends.S1

XAIPART take
Technical impact
XAIPART analysis. The Galaxy75 marks a deliberate step back from the Galaxy70 and Galaxy68's flashier layouts: a true 75% with F13 and a four-key nav column is closer to a community standard, and the aluminium chassis plus gasket mount plus five foam layers tracks the now-common "thock" recipe. Single-switch availability (Creamy Jade linear only) simplifies SKU count but removes tactile and clicky options that buyers building a mixed fleet may want.
XAIPART analysis. VIA support is the most decision-relevant spec for procurement: it makes the keyboard firmware-portable across QMK/VIA tooling, which matters if the same board is reused across mechanical engineering desks where key layers are remapped per project.
Market impact
XAIPART analysis. Pricing is the real gating signal. The Galaxy68 and Galaxy70 sit at $99.99, so the $80-100 speculation band flagged by TechPowerUp is plausible but not binding; Epomaker's own listing page is where the official number will appear, and the source does not disclose it. Until that page updates, procurement should treat the figure as unconfirmed.
XAIPART analysis. Lead time was not disclosed by the source. Buyers planning Q4 2026 or early 2027 fleet refreshes should not assume immediate availability based on the product-page listing alone; Epomaker's prior Galaxy SKUs have shipped in waves, and the source gives no reservation or pre-order date.
Action
XAIPART analysis. Track the Epomaker Galaxy75 product page for the official price and the first ship-date window before adding it to a BOM or refresh shortlist; do not lock spend at the speculated $80-100 band.
XAIPART analysis. If the goal is a VIA-remappable wireless board at this price tier, list Galaxy75 alongside competing 75% aluminium gasket boards and re-quote once Epomaker publishes the final price; the Creamy Jade linear-only constraint means tactile-key users will still need an alternate SKU.
XAIPART Forecast
XAIPART analysis. XAIPART expects Epomaker to publish an official Galaxy75 price on the existing Epomaker Galaxy75 product page by 2027-03-31; if the listed price lands above $110 USD, the TechPowerUp $80-100 speculation band is wrong and this forecast is wrong.
XAIPART analysisFacts are as reported by TechPowerUp. The design-in, sourcing and forward-looking statements above are XAIPART's analysis, not the source's claims. Uncertainty: price is unconfirmed and is third-party speculation; ship date and lead time are not disclosed; VIA support is implied by the source but the exact firmware revision is not stated.
Corrections: none at publication. This brief will be updated with a timestamp if the source corrects its report.
