Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Keychron K4 Compact Gaming Mechanical Keyboard, Wireless Bluetooth/USB Wired, 100 Keys RGB LED Backlit, Gateron Red Switch, N-Key Rollover, Aluminum Frame, Mac Windows Compatible - Version 2 by Joseph Swanson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A great keyboard for beginners, but experienced users may find it inadequate.

NOTE. My particular configuration uses Gateron Brown switches. This is a fantastic keyboard and looks great. She's definitely tall, which some might find uncomfortable. I highly recommend getting some rest if you're not used to wrist-raised typing. It also makes accessing the top row a bit tedious. Bluetooth may be unstable and may take a few seconds to wake up from sleep mode. The wired mode works absolutely fine as expected and it's nice that they gave you that option. The keycaps are cheap, but I think they feel good. I also think that the aluminum frame takes care of that. It definitely feels like a sturdy keyboard. There are some nifty RGB effects, although you're limited to what's already on board. The only setting available to you is a set of spot colors. The layout of the numeric keypad takes a little getting used to, as the 0 key is 1u, which can lead to accidentally pressing the right arrow key. Gateron Brown switches are nice. There's just a bit of that tactile punch without feeling too clicky, and they're quite responsive.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • makes me angry
