Finally.

On May 1, 2026, Jezail Funder Japan shared a follow-up update about the Cornix LP restock.

https://twitter.com/jezailfunder_jp/status/2050134639076049171

In this announcement, the restock date was clearly stated as “10:00 AM on May 2, 2026.”

Restock schedule

  • Start time: From 10:00 AM on Saturday, May 2
  • Quantity: Limited stock, ends when sold out
  • Price: ¥29,500 (tax included)
  • Colors: Silver / Black / Orange
  • Estimated delivery: Mid to late June

No details have been provided about the stock limit. It’s also not yet announced whether there’s a limit per color or a limit on the number of units per order.

The Cornix LP is a low-profile keyboard featuring a split, column-staggered layout.

Despite its compact 40% layout, it supports fully wireless use, and it’s been popular for balancing portability with the flexible positioning you’d expect from a split keyboard.

What’s worth paying attention to this time isn’t just that sales are starting again.

There are a few things you’ll want to check before buying, including the price revision, new colors, and how the limited colors will be handled.

In particular, since this restock is “limited quantity, ends when sold out”, anyone who really wants one shouldn’t miss it.

Price increases to ¥29,500, higher than the initial release

For this restock, the Cornix LP price is expected to be higher than last time.

¥26,900 (tax incl.) → ¥29,500 (tax incl.) | Up ¥2,600

The Cornix LP has drawn attention as a ready-to-use split low-profile keyboard you can buy in Japan.

That said, considering exchange rates, manufacturing costs, shipping, and inventory risk, it’s understandable that the price would change for a restock.

Given the current global situation and the weaker yen, it seems hard to avoid.

Of course, a price increase is a tough point for buyers.

On the other hand, the Cornix LP combines fully wireless, split left/right, low-profile, and a compact layout—and there aren’t many similar options available domestically.

So rather than judging on price alone, considering that you can get it as a ready-to-use product, that there’s a domestic sales channel, and that people have been waiting for a restock, it’s a price point worth thinking about.

New green color to be announced separately

This restock also seems to include a new green colorway.

However, the green version is expected to be announced separately, and details are still undecided at this time.

Even if you already own a Cornix LP, depending on how the green turns out, there’s a good chance you’ll want to consider it as a “second unit.”

I’m looking forward to it.

Orange is a limited color. Future re-production is undecided

Another thing you shouldn’t overlook is how the orange color will be handled.

Orange is being offered as a limited color, and future re-production is said to be undecided.

In other words, if you miss this timing, you may not be able to get the same color later.

The Cornix LP already has a lot of fans.

Not only for first-time buyers, but also for existing users, wanting to add a different color is a common pattern for people who’ve fallen into the “keyboard rabbit hole.”

Limited colors, in particular, tend to be chosen not just for practical use, but also for collecting.

That tempting phrase “limited color” has a dangerous vibe to it.

If you’re buying your first one, who is the Cornix LP for?

The Cornix LP is a good fit for people interested in split keyboards, those who like the light feel of low-profile typing, and those who aren’t put off by a 40% layout.

Because it’s fully wireless, it’s easy to place the left and right units freely, and it also pairs well with setups where you put a trackball, touchpad, or laptop in the middle.

It’s also a solid option for anyone looking for a portable split keyboard.

On the other hand, since it has fewer keys, it’s not the kind of product you can simply swap in as a direct replacement for a typical full-size keyboard.

You’ll need to get used to layer usage, and it may not suit people who frequently use a numpad or function keys as physical keys.

To begin with, it’s not a standard row-staggered layout (horizontal offset), but a column-staggered layout (vertical offset), so the switching cost is quite high—meaning the barrier to entry is high.

It seems best suited to people who can enjoy the time it takes to get comfortable with it as “practice.”

It can also be worth buying as a second unit

The Cornix LP is a product you can try as your first split keyboard, and it’s also an easy pick as a second (or later) unit.

For example:

  • Use one at home and one for going out
  • Use one at work and one at home
  • Enjoy a different color from your current one
  • Swap key switches to enjoy a different typing sound
  • Customize keycaps to enjoy a different look

Those kinds of setups are absolutely an option.

Especially with a limited color like orange, since it’s unclear whether it’ll be produced again later, the more you like the Cornix LP, the more it may be worth considering sooner rather than later.

If you’re torn between it and the Jiffy75

P1093710

At Jezail Funder Japan, besides the Cornix LP, there’s also the Jiffy75 as an option.

The Cornix LP is more compact and lets you really feel what a split keyboard is all about.

Meanwhile, the Jiffy75 is based on a 65% layout, making it easier to keep the transition cost down from a typical keyboard.

So the choice is pretty clear.

If you value compactness and that “split keyboard” feel, go with the Cornix LP.
If you value everyday usability and an easier transition, go with the Jiffy75.

If the Cornix LP caught your eye but you’re worried about a 40% layout, it’s worth considering the Jiffy75 as well.

There’s still no mention of whether the Jiffy75 will be available for sale in Japan. Let’s wait for more updates.

Summary | The best time to buy is when you feel like buying

The Cornix LP was a highly talked-about product in past sales as well.

This time too, once restock info is out, there may be a certain amount of movement right away.

Especially if you’re interested in the limited or new colors, you’ll want to check stock status early after sales start.

For people who’ve been waiting for a restock, those who missed out on the Cornix LP, and existing users who want to add another color, this restock looks like a hard-to-miss timing.

The restock starts at 10:00 AM on May 2.

Think it through carefully!
