Hybrid-mechanical is a loose term, referring to a combination of mechanical and non-mechanical parts on a keyboard.
Like the non-term "mecha-membrane", it is often used for marketing of rubber dome keyboards to make them seem fancier than they really are.
It usually means any of the following:
- Rubber dome-with-slider keyboards.
- A keyboard with mechanical and non-mechanical switches on different keys. The mechanical switches are usually in the WASD cluster.
- "Semi-mechanical" keyboard switches.
