Choose MOA if you prefer rounded key surfaces and a uniform profile across rows. Choose Cherry if you prefer a lower, sculpted profile with a different shape for each row. Profile describes the keycap’s shape; MX compatibility describes how it fits onto a switch.

Compare MOA and Cherry profiles

No. Keycaps change the printed legends and feel; what you type is controlled by your device’s input language or keyboard layout settings. Choose keycaps that match the input language and layout you use so the legends correspond to the characters you type. This makes keys easier to identify and everyday work more comfortable. Select the corresponding input language or keyboard layout in Windows, macOS or your device’s settings.

Yes. SIMPOCUBIC offers shine-through PBT keycap sets, including selected multilingual versions. These keycaps let keyboard backlighting pass through the legends. Look for “Shine-through” in the product title and check the backlit photos of your chosen version. Brightness also depends on your keyboard’s LED position.

Yes. We offer decorative artisan keycaps for mechanical keyboards. Before ordering, check the selected product’s key size, switch compatibility and package contents. Browse our artisan keycap collection to explore the available designs.

For artisan keycaps supplied with these installation instructions, remove the keycap from the keyboard before heating. Use a hairdryer on its warm setting for about 15 seconds to soften it. Gently fit the keycap onto the switch immediately while it is still soft. Do not force it. Let it cool completely to room temperature so the material contracts and fits securely. If it is still difficult to install, contact support@simpocubic.com. Never use an open flame. Take care to avoid burns and material damage.

Top-printed means legends on the upper surface; side-printed or side engraving means legends on the front-facing side. Selected SIMPOCUBIC variants combine shine-through English side legends with French AZERTY, German QWERTZ or another local layout on top. This gives you two visual layout references, while the operating-system input language still controls which characters are typed.

No. Unless the product page states otherwise, sets contain only keycaps and the accessories listed in the package contents. Keyboards, switches and stabilisers are not included.

QWERTY, AZERTY and QWERTZ describe the arrangement of letters and symbols. QWERTY is widely used internationally, AZERTY mainly in France and Belgium, and QWERTZ in Germany, Austria and parts of Central Europe. ANSI and ISO describe the physical shapes and positions of keys such as Enter and left Shift.

Yes. SIMPOCUBIC multilingual keycap sets include keycaps for both ANSI and ISO layouts. Before ordering, check the selected product page for the chosen version’s key coverage, sizes and compatibility details.

Most sets fit mechanical keyboards with standard-height MX-style cross stems. Unless the product page states otherwise, they are not compatible with low-profile, laptop, membrane or scissor-switch keyboards. Compare the selected set’s coverage diagram with your keyboard’s Enter, left Shift, spacebar and bottom-row keys. For more help, read Before Ordering and our Keyboard & Keycap Compatibility guide.

Yes. SIMPOCUBIC offers wooden keyboards. Before ordering, check the selected model’s physical layout, connection type, switch type and package contents. The language version of a keycap set does not change the keyboard’s physical layout. If you need help, contact us with the product link and the layout you want to use.
