You lose nothing you use and gain a few centimetres of mouse room. Then AULA adds the things a plain full-size board never had: a small colour screen in the top corner, a metal rotary knob beside it, an ambient light strip around the case and forged carbon trim on the back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eIt is a keyboard for someone who wants one board for spreadsheets by day and games by night, and wants it to look like it cost more than it did.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"image-content\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3471\/6413\/files\/2_-_ChatGPT-Image-2026_6_15_-19_55_40.png?v=1793809785\" alt=\"NOVA98 feature overview: 1.14-inch display, metal-coated keycaps, ambient light strip, rotary knob, six-layer dampening, full 98-key layout\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"product-section split-50-text-right\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"text-content\"\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eScreen and knob\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe 1.14-inch TFT display shows battery level, connection mode and lighting status at a glance, and you can load your own GIF or JPG onto it, so it doubles as a tiny picture frame for whatever you want on your desk.

In plain terms, the plate floats rather than being bolted down, and every cavity that could echo has something soft in it. The result is a deep, muted sound and a soft landing on every key, with pre-lubed stabilisers so the spacebar and Enter do not rattle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"image-content\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3471\/6413\/files\/3_-_Aula-Nova98-2.jpg?v=1793809784\" alt=\"Exploded view of the NOVA98 six-layer dampening stack: gasket shim, PO foam, PET shim, PC plate, switch pad, PCB, bottom foam\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"product-section split-50-text-right\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"text-content\"\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eDual 8K, 0.125 ms\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eOver the USB-C cable and the 2.4 GHz receiver the NOVA98 reports 8000 times a second, which AULA quotes as 0.125 ms of latency, on its own in-house controller.
