Includes PBT double-shot OEM-profile keycaps (with shine-through legends for the south-facing RGB) and Akko Double-shot TPU plate-mount stabilizers.

NOTE: dimensions reported on the Akkogear EU page are identical to the TKL sibling M3W V3 — this may be a vendor copy/paste error and should be reconfirmed against monsgeek.eu / monsgeek.com. Battery capacity is listed as N/A on Akkogear EU (vendor placeholder); verifier should reconfirm before publish. QMK / VIA firmware support is NOT advertised on this base M1W V3 listing (no barebone variant in the Shopify variant list); the VIA-supported flavor is sold as a separate 'MonsGeek M1W V3 VIA' Product.
