Akko Mineral 01 VIA Custom Mechanical Keyboard

Akko Mineral 01 VIA Custom Mechanical Keyboard

A Discovery From an Interstellar Voyage

A crystal found on a new world. The story of Akko’s Stellar Cat continues, and this time it’s about what they found. Meet the Akko Mineral 01: the custom keyboard that brings that discovery to your desk. Hand-assembled on a foundation of CNC-milled aluminum, the Mineral 01’s story is told through its custom-sculpted acrylic corners. These translucent accents represent the rare minerals from the journey, diffusing synchronized RGB light from within the case. This isn't just another keyboard; it's a desktop centerpiece built with a huge list of enthusiast components. A tool-free magnetic ball catch system for rapid disassembly. A massive 8000mAh battery for extended wireless sessions. A soft gasket mount with silicon socks for a cushioned typing feel. For a keyboard inspired by discovery, we'd expect nothing less.

Feel the Difference

To truly understand the Mineral 01, you have to feel it. The first thing you’ll notice is its weight. At over 2kg for the assembled version, this isn't a keyboard that moves. At its core, that stability starts with the solid aluminum case, precision-milled with an ergonomic curved profile that mimics the organic irregularity of natural minerals. On the underside, a reflective PVD stainless steel back weight adds even more mass and a touch of luxury. Of course, the feel doesn't stop with the weight. The Mineral 01 uses a gasket-mounted structure with soft silicon socks, delivering a cushioned, bouncy typing sensation that softens every keystroke. It’s a typing experience engineered for stability and comfort.

Premium Features Built-In

Tool-Free Disassembly Tool-Free Disassembly

An innovative magnetic ball catch mechanism lets you remove the top case in seconds without any tools, making mods and component swaps easier than ever.

Tri-Mode Connectivity Tri-Mode Connectivity

Switch between high-speed 2.4GHz wireless (1000Hz), multi-device Bluetooth 5.0, and a classic wired USB-C connection for complete flexibility.

QMK & VIA Programmable QMK & VIA Programmable

Take full control over your layout. Remap any key, create complex macros, and fine-tune the per-key and corner RGB lighting through the powerful VIA web interface.

Gasket-Mounted Structure Gasket-Mounted Structure

A modern mounting style that uses soft silicon gaskets to isolate the plate from the case, resulting in a softer, quieter, and more comfortable typing feel.

8000mAh Battery 8000mAh Battery

Outfitted with an industry-leading battery capacity, the Mineral 01 provides exceptionally long wireless performance for weeks of use on a single charge.

Disassembly in Five Seconds

Tinkering and modding are at the heart of the keyboard hobby, but it shouldn't require a full toolkit. Instead of traditional screws, the Mineral 01 uses a magnetic ball catch system to secure its top case. Pull the top case off. Push it back on to lock it. It’s a five-second, tool-free process that gives you immediate access to switches, stabilizers, and foam. For builders who prefer a more rigid lock-up, the load force of the ball catches can be adjusted by tightening the built-in screws. It gives you the freedom to experiment on your terms.

Disassembly in Five Seconds

Engineered for Sound

The Mineral 01’s typing feel is matched by its refined acoustics. The design starts with a non-flex cut PCB, which creates a fuller, more consistent sound profile across the board. This is paired with a custom FR4 plate that strikes a perfect balance between a firm typing foundation and a pleasing acoustic signature. To eliminate any internal hollowness or high-frequency noise, the keyboard comes pre-installed with high-density PORON plate foam. Finally, small silicon extensions act as a force break, preventing any of the metallic ping sometimes found in full aluminum cases.

Q&A and Specifications

Questions & Answers

How do I connect the keyboard to VIA?

To use VIA, you must be in wired mode. Set the DIP switch under the Caps Lock key to the middle position, plug in the USB-C cable, and open the VIA web application. You will need to load the V3 JSON file for the Mineral 01, which can be found on Akko's website.

What is the difference between the Barebones Kit and the Fully Assembled version?

The Barebones Kit includes the complete case, PCB, plate, foam, and stabilizers. You will need to provide your own switches and keycaps to complete the build. The Fully Assembled version is a complete keyboard that includes switches and keycaps, ready to use immediately.

Does it support screw-in stabilizers?

Yes. While the keyboard comes with plate-mounted stabilizers pre-installed for convenience, a set of PCB-mount screw-in stabilizers is also included in the box for builders who prefer them.

How do I switch between Mac and Windows modes?

There is a 3-way DIP switch hidden under the Caps Lock keycap. The top position is for Mac (wireless), the middle is for wired mode (works on both), and the bottom is for Windows (wireless).
