Review on ๐Ÿ”‘ Keychron K1 Bluetooth Mechanical Keyboard: Low Profile Gateron Brown Switch for Gaming, Mac-PC Compatible โ€“ Version 4 by Angela Fields

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Below-average typing feel

When I buy a keyboard, I buy it to make typing easier. This board had a good build, solid material, etc. However, the typing sucked. The keys were widely spaced, which was good, but the keystroke wasn't great. Not sure if they were low profile keycaps or something. I got the blue switches (because the brown ones were out of stock) and they felt so soft. The switch took forever to return to its original position, resulting in repeated button presses. Oh, and I said it was so soggy. It felt like typing on a membrane keyboard. I have a Logitech Mx Keys keyboard and I felt that way. Sure, it's a great keyboard for its category, but it's not. soft switches strain my fingers, which is one of the reasons I switched to mechanical keyboards. I almost bought a k2 with a traditional switch and cap and after that experience I couldn't bring myself to trust the situation enough to make that purchase. I wasn't happy here.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Durable
