YUNZII C98 MAO Cake Kitten adds cat-ear charm to full-size layout
Cat ears and cake caps hide a practical 98-key wireless board: YUNZII's C98 MAO Cake Kitten launched at $119 with 2.4GHz, Bluetooth 5.0 and a 10,000mAh battery.
YUNZII listed the C98 MAO Cake Kitten as a new arrival on June 26, 2026, pricing the wireless mechanical keyboard at $119, down from $134.99. The board keeps the C98’s roomy, numpad-equipped shape, but swaps in cake-themed MAO keycaps and transparent cat-ear accents that glow through the RGB lighting.
The company is leaning hard into the practical side of the idea. The product page lists Pink as the color and offers YUNZII Milk V2 Linear and YUNZII Candy Linear switch options, a choice that keeps the stock configuration squarely in the mainstream linear lane. YUNZII also says the keyboard ships within 2 business days when in stock, includes a one-year warranty, and qualifies for free global standard shipping on most orders over $45.
The C98 line is not being treated like a one-off novelty. A YUNZII blog post from May 9, 2026 said the C98 Cake Meow had become a four-color lineup after blue was added, framing the board as the full-sized sibling in the company’s cake-themed family. YUNZII describes the C98 as a 96% layout with 98 keys, and the feature list reads like a serious daily-driver spec sheet: Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4GHz wireless, USB-C wired mode, multi-device support, a 10,000mAh battery, gasket mount construction, sound-dampening layers, hot-swappable switches, RGB lighting, and web-based software support for Windows and Mac.
That practical pitch lines up with the earlier C98 Cake Meow, which was described as a 96% ANSI board with 99 keys, 1000Hz polling, N-key rollover, south-facing RGB LEDs, and compatibility with Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS. Its package also included a 2.4GHz dongle, USB-C cable, switch and keycap puller, extra keycaps, spare switches, stickers, a dust cover, a postcard, and a mouse mat, the kind of bundle that pushes a themed board from desk decoration into all-in-one purchase territory.
That is the tension YUNZII is selling here. The cat ears make the C98 MAO Cake Kitten look playful, but the numpad, wireless options, hot-swap sockets, and 10,000mAh battery keep it aimed at people who want a board they can actually live with every day.
