Our Verdict

Wooting 80HE

Wooting 60HE v2

The Wooting 80HE and Wooting 60HE v2 are wired gaming keyboards with Hall effect switches. They both boast exceptionally good raw performance and a maximum polling rate of 8000Hz and identical software feature sets. The main difference is size: the 80HE uses a TKL form factor with arrow keys, navigation keys, and a function row, while the 60HE v2 has a compact 60% layout and is available in standard ANSI or Split ANSI configurations. Both are offered with either an ABS or metal case, zinc alloy on the 80HE and aluminum on the 60HE v2. The 80HE also uses a somewhat softer gasket mount, while the 60HE v2 has a stiffer friction-fit mount that makes modding into compatible GH60 cases easier.
