New Favorite Daily Driver

I work as a technician and spend 8-10 hours a day on my car. One of my favorite features is the 3 bluetooth receiver profiles. I switch between two different Macs during the day (one is my Mac Book Pro and the other is the Mac Pro that sits at my desk) and this keyboard makes it incredibly easy and fast. There are a few LED lighting settings, and it's easy to find one that isn't too bright for my liking. Battery life has been fantastic so far (over 3 weeks) but it probably depends on the LED…

  • Handsfree

Bluetooth lags made it unbearable UPDATED 1/14/2020

K4 with red Gaetron mechanical switches with white LED on a plastic base Physically, I really like the keyboard. It works great when connected via a USB cable, but wirelessly it lags when typing. Sometimes without typing a key, and other times it just keeps going and going like you're stuck. FIX: I decided to try again before sending it back. So far I haven't had any Bluetooth latency issues and it's worked great. UPDATE 2: There is still some lag when using the keyboard over the wifi and in…

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • No power

Kira is cheaper, better and uglier** brother.

Compare this to the Kira keyboard ($260) which doesn't have Bluetooth. The USB port is on the left side and is held in very firmly by molded plastic, which is a common cause of failure for this type of keyboard. Overall, the keyboard makes a very solid impression. The lighting works well and the keycaps aren't bad, although the color isn't great. I rarely use Bluetooth, but it works fine. **Edit: Not gross anymore. Revain has complete replacement key sets, search "YMDK 96 ISO Keyset". Updated…

Great keyboard with some bad design choices

I bought this keyboard because the product description said it had a USB-C cable to connect the keyboard. What wasn't clear was that this is USB-C into keyboard and regular USB into computer. I wanted both ends to be USBC so I can get rid of the weird dongle on my Mac. The other reason I bought this keyboard was that it could connect to multiple devices via Bluetooth. I've found the Bluetooth to work with no issues, but turns off after a short period of inactivity. When I read on my computer…

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Not happy with everything

A bit disappointed with this product despite all the good reviews. One day it lost the bluetooth connection so I had to pair it again. If I don't use it for a while, it usually takes a few seconds to reconnect. I have never seen such a lag with my existing Logitech keyboard. Consider returning within the return window. Update 1: It keeps losing bluetooth connection after a few months so I have to use it right now. Update 2: Your customer service is really terrible. When I ask about this error…

Pros
  • Don't waste too much time
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Brown Optical Switches With White Illumination

I'm A Tactile Girl But Not A Clicky Blue Switch. I've had a keyboard with red switches for a while and while they're fine, I make a lot of mistakes and it didn't work when playing. Some time ago I got myself a 60% keyboard with brown optical switches to play with and fell in love. For this reason I have chosen the Keychron K4 as my everyday device for work, school and leisure. However, there were a few things that bothered me about this keyboard; height, the keycaps are not PBT, and the small 0

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Ugly Packaging

I can't say enough good things about this keyboard. I love mechanical keyboards because my work requires me to type a lot in 10-12 hour shifts and they relieve hand/finger/wrist fatigue. The fact is, many mechanical keyboards are made for gamers, so they're pretty big, have extra customizable keys, unnecessary lighting effects, and need to be plugged in (cough, my Razer). no compact keyboard has the 10 keys I need. So keychron meets my standards. I didn't know anything about this brand and…

  • Everything is fine!
