Overview
professional quality, minimal design
_
The Apex Pro Mini is a professional quality gaming keyboard with a simple, modern design. MNML partnered with SteelSeries to set the standard for portable gaming keyboards. Minimalist design meets industry leading specs, freeing up desk space and giving gamers a powerful competitive advantage.
The challenge
maximizing comfort & portability
_
MNML designers and engineers worked closely with Steelseries to ensure every detail of the new Apex Pro Mini was crafted to deliver a precise, tactile experience for gamers on the go.
Ergonomics was a major focus. Three typing positions deliver maximum comfort during long gaming sessions and adjustable switch weights reduce typing fatigue. Lightweight materials reinforce portability and the stiff metal switch plate provides a rock solid typing feel.
PROCESS
designed with intention
_
Our design team sought to highlight Steelseries' advanced gaming technology. Inside the minimalist housing, fully customizable switches allow the user to create a gaming experience suited to their needs.
Every detail was carefully considered, from the precise edge profile, to the braided charging cable and integrated keycap puller.
