The Ducky Cushion 98: Mechanical gaming keyboard with a special typing feel

The heart of the Ducky Cushion 98 is the Ducky Nest Mount. Instead of damping the keyboard only at specific points, a dedicated damping layer distributes pressure evenly across the board. This results in a soft and controlled keypress. At the same time, typing noise is reduced. This tuning quickly becomes noticeable, especially if you type a lot or share your setup with others.

Ducky Shush Red: quiet switches with a linear keypress

The Ducky Shush Red switches have a linear characteristic. When pressed, the key moves smoothly downwards without overcoming any additional tactile resistance. The switches require 43 gf actuation force, actuate at 1.9 mm, and offer a total 4 mm key travel. The integrated damping reduces noise both when pressing through and when the key springs back.

Would you prefer a different typing feel later? No problem. The Ducky Cushion 98 features hot-swap sockets. This allows you to remove the mechanical switches without soldering and replace them with compatible models.

Compact 96% layout for work and gaming

• Space-saving Compact-980 layout
• Separate number pad retained
• PBT keycaps in Cherry profile
• South-facing per-key RGB lighting

The Ducky Cushion 98 uses a compact 96% layout. This gives you many functions of a large keyboard including a number pad, but takes up less desk space. This leaves more room for mouse movements during gaming. The PBT keycaps in Cherry profile are designed for fast typing and gaming.

Three connection options for your setup

You can connect the Ducky Cushion 98 in three ways: via 2.4 GHz wireless, Bluetooth, or USB-C. Up to four devices can be paired via Bluetooth. The built-in battery has a capacity of 4,200 mAh and lasts up to 63 hours with lighting off.

The gaming keyboard remains flexible when it comes to configuration. Using the browser-based DuckyHub, you can set functions and lighting without needing to download additional software. Additionally, the Cushion 98 supports VIA.
