Review on 🔑 Keychron K1 Bluetooth Mechanical Keyboard: Low Profile Gateron Brown Switch for Gaming, Mac-PC Compatible – Version 4 by Ashley Ellis

It really pains me to write this. I have Logitech MX Keys which is arguably the best keyboard EXCEPT it doesn't come in the TKL version. I've also long wanted to go back to mechanical keyboards, but with a lower profile so as not to hurt my wrists after 8-10 hours of typing during a workday. Enter Keychron K1 V4. It tested many of my options: TKL, low profile, mechanical blue switches, white backlight, decent wired Bluetooth, Windows/Mac compatibility, function keys, and more. I received the keyboard and was delighted to try it and did a typing test to try it out. I've had the keyboard for a few days now and can't get past 65 wpm. Where I'm usually 80+. Maybe it's because of how the keys are spaced, or that I haven't used mechanical keys in a while, but no. The real problem is that the keys are just awkward to type. The keycaps feel cheap and difficult to press, but sometimes I didn't press them when registering a key. It's just frustrating to type on and even the blue switches sound a bit odd compared to other keyboards I've tried. It's a good keyboard, just not for me. Your experience may vary. For now I'll have to stick with the MX keys until they come out with a TKL version I think.
