Replacement Keyboard for MSI GF63 8RC 8RD / GF65 Thin 9SD 9SE 10SD 10SE / GS65 GS65VR Stealth — MS-16R1 MS-16R4 MS-16W1 MS-16Q1

Description

Restore your MSI GF63 Thin, GF65 Thin, or GS65 Stealth with this Lemonyy replacement keyboard, covering MSI’s popular thin gaming laptop family across multiple generations. The GF63 (MS-16R1/R4), GF65 Thin (MS-16W1), and GS65 (MS-16Q1) share the same keyboard data connector and chassis mounting interface, making this a cross-compatible unit for all three series. This keyboard is built for slim 15.6″ competitive gaming configurations — no numpad, compact layout, with dedicated function row for MSI gaming controls.

The backlight specification varies across models in this family: the MSI GF63 8RC/8RD uses single-color red backlight, the GF65 Thin uses zone-based RGB, and the GS65 Stealth supports per-key RGB. The keyboard data connector is shared across all variants, but the backlight ZIF connector may differ. Confirm your exact model and original backlight type with the supplier before ordering to ensure the correct backlight variant is shipped.

⚠️ Backlight Variant — Confirm Before Ordering:

The keyboard data connector is the same across all variants — but the backlight connector type and pinout differs between single-color (red) and RGB variants. Order the variant matching your original keyboard’s backlight type.​
