Attack Shark X87 Review – Best Budget Hot-Swappable Gaming Keyboard in Pakistan?

Not every gamer can or wants to drop Rs. 20,000+ on a mechanical keyboard. But what if you could get hot-swappable mechanical switches, RGB, and solid build quality — all under Rs. 14,000?

That’s where the Attack Shark X87 punches in hard. It’s becoming a sleeper favorite among Pakistani budget gamers — and for good reason.


🧱 Build & Design: Solid, Sleek, and RGB-Ready

The X87 sports a clean TKL (Tenkeyless) design with a minimal footprint, perfect for desk setups that need space for mouse movement. The case feels sturdy, with double-shot ABS keycaps and a decent weight to prevent sliding.

Oh — and the RGB? It’s not just slapped on. You get multiple dynamic modes, brightness settings, and customization options right out of the box.


🔁 Hot-Swappable Switches: Huge Win at This Price

This is where the X87 really flexes. It comes with pre-lubed mechanical switches, but what makes it amazing is its hot-swappable PCB — meaning you can pop out switches and try other types (linear, tactile, clicky) without soldering.

For gamers in Pakistan trying to get into the mechanical keyboard hobby, this is an awesome starting point.


🎮 Typing & Gaming Experience

  • Latency: Low enough for FPS games like Apex and CS2

  • Stabilizers: Decent out of the box (some mods can make it buttery)

  • Noise: Quiet enough for office use, but satisfying for gaming

Whether you’re typing assignments or dominating lobbies, it feels responsive and consistent.


💡 Perfect For:

  • New mechanical keyboard users

  • Gamers on a budget

  • Those who want RGB and hot-swap without breaking the bank

At just Rs. 13,999, this keyboard delivers features that used to be exclusive to premium brands.
