For an AULA F99 keyboard, compare the exact listing and manual revision before choosing between F99 and F99 Pro. Their current listings share many headline specifications, but the official sources do not provide a consistent, item-by-item list of what makes the Pro a universal upgrade. S01 · S02

Contents

What the current listings confirm

AULA’s current product pages describe both models as 96% layouts with 99 keys. The listings also show a knob, tri-mode connection, hot-swap sockets for 3- or 5-pin mechanical switches, RGB, a five-layer gasket structure, and an 8000mAh battery. These are overlapping published specifications; they do not by themselves establish that every F99 and F99 Pro revision, switch selection, or regional listing is identical. S01 · S02

This applies to the current AULA pages reviewed; it does not establish that every older, retailer-specific, or future revision carries the same parts. S01 · S02

F99 and F99 Pro manual revisions

The available official manuals show why it helps to identify a revision rather than rely on a model name alone. The 2024 F99 manual lists dimensions of 390.63 × 146.78 × 42.57 mm ±0.5 mm in its specifications block. The 2025 F99 Pro manual lists 406.76 × 139.31 × 43.28 mm ±0.1 mm in its technical specifications. These are the dimensions printed in those particular manuals; the measurements do not establish which keyboard will feel smaller on your desk or which shell is better. S03 · S04

I have not compared the manuals’ weight figures: the Pro manual distinguishes weight with and without a wire/receiver, while the basis needed for a like-for-like comparison is not established here. If carrying weight matters, check the exact packaging contents and ask the seller for the weight of the selected configuration.

The manuals’ specifications apply to their own revisions; they do not establish that every current US-store variant matches those documents. AULA’s FAQ groups the models under one support topic but does not provide a feature-by-feature difference list. S03 · S04 · S05

Which one should you choose?

Choose by the exact board and configuration you can confirm, not by the name alone:

  • Pick the F99 if the specific F99 listing offers the color and switch configuration you want and its manual or seller details match your requirements. The official page presents it as a 99-key, 96% tri-mode keyboard with a knob and mechanical hot-swap support. S01
  • Pick the F99 Pro if its exact listing has the configuration, terms, or revision you prefer. Its published core specifications overlap substantially with the base F99; the source set does not prove a universal performance or build advantage for every Pro version. S02
  • Pause before ordering if a page, marketplace title, or seller description says only “F99” without showing the selected switches, revision, included accessories, or warranty. Ask for the exact product label and documentation when those details affect your decision.

If you are choosing between the compact F75 family and a 96% board, first decide whether you need a number pad. The AULA compact keyboard guide covers a smaller layout; the F99 family keeps the number pad in a denser layout. AULA publishes separate product pages for F99 and F99 Pro; keep their specifications separate from the F75 family. S01 · S02

What to check before ordering

Before paying, verify the complete product title and selected variant on the final checkout screen. Confirm the switch name and whether it is the configuration you intended, the color, included accessories, the applicable warranty, shipping destination, and delivery estimate. These details can vary by listing and may change over time.

AULA’s US-facing store states that its website serves the US market, but that general policy does not confirm that a particular variant is available or deliverable to your address. Both product pages showed preorder status when the source research was collected, so treat availability as time-sensitive and rely on the live checkout for your specific order. S01 · S02 · S06

Frequently asked questions

How many keys do the F99 and F99 Pro have?

AULA’s current listings and the researched manuals identify 99 keys. For an older or third-party listing, check that exact revision’s documentation. S01 · S02 · S03 · S04

Is the F99 Pro automatically better than the F99?

The official sources reviewed here do not establish that. Their current listings have several major specifications in common, and AULA’s FAQ does not publish a complete difference list. Compare exact revision and configuration details instead of assuming the Pro name means a universal upgrade. S01 · S02 · S05

Can I use any 3- or 5-pin mechanical switch?

The listings specify 3- and 5-pin mechanical hot-swap support; check the exact replacement switch and keyboard documentation before ordering. S01 · S02

Final check for an AULA F99 keyboard

For an AULA F99 keyboard, choose the base or Pro only after confirming the exact listing, revision, switch/color selection, and order terms S01 · S02 · S06. The available evidence does not make “Pro” a universal upgrade S01 · S02 · S05; check current checkout and the matching manual if key count or desk dimensions matter S03 · S04.
