Great keyboard with modifications.

The keyboard itself is a good hot swap board but nothing special like light weight build keycaps not great but overall decent I guess I wouldn't buy this without planning to add different switches. You get what you pay quite a lot for. The circuit board looks mostly normal. My biggest issue is the lack of customization options with the lighting (only fixed profiles, mine is only white). The good news is that the case and switches are highly modifiable with the hot-swappable feature. I…

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Security

Best value keyless keyboard on the market

The fact that this keyboard only costs $60 is unbelievable. Backlighting, detachable USB-C, hot-swappable mechanical switches—all these features in one package would have cost you over $100 for a keyboard a year ago. Keychron has been making affordable, modifiable, durable, and aesthetic keyboards for several years, and this new release is the culmination of all their efforts. The price might seem like a budget keyboard, but the quality of the product is on par with Logitech and Razer, who…

Pros
  • Don't waste too much time
Cons
  • Makes me angry

Great keyboard. on PC

I tried a cheaper mechanical keyboard with red switches and it didn't work for me. Then I tried this Keychron C1 and it's spot on. The action isn't overly clicky or overly loud, although it's definitely louder than the OEM chicken keyboard I've used before. Not that this is actually a problem. The white backlight looks better with other accessories that also have a white backlight. Black and white keycaps work too, and they include the essentials for a Windows PC, plus some alternative colors…

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Low maintainability

good cheap works ok

have the brown version of c1 gaitrons and it's a good cheap keyboard if my old one from another company just sucks t key from me no longer works. I wish the windows lock button didn't work while gaming, but that's fine. Maybe I can still deactivate this key on my computer. good keyboard, and the keys are I think capital letters d-pbt, very comfortable to the touch. don't start to feel smooth after a little use. I've had so many problems with my newer keyboards, with those little F and J ribs on

Pros
  • inspires confidence
Cons
  • i have no bad feelings about it everything is fine
