Keychron K2 Wireless Mechanical Keyboard, 75% Layout 84 Key Bluetooth/USB-C Wired Compact RGB Backlit Anti Ghosting/N-Key Rollover, Gateron G Pro Red Switch Aluminum Frame for Mac Windows, Version 2

I have searched long for a keyboard that has almost no compromise on the features I need, without building a custom. As a software developer, I have grown used to the home and end keys, but as a gamer I wanted a keyboard smaller than a tenkeyless. I wanted dedicated F-keys, I preferred dedicated arrow keys, and RGB is something I crave more than I should. The Keychron K2 has it all, and then some. I wasn't seeking out a wireless keyboard, but having that option is amazing when I consider I would have paid the same or more for a keyboard without this feature. The lighting options are numerous and vivid, some of the best RGB I have seen, although sadly it doesn't have software to individually control each key at this time. I am impressed with Gateron switches. I typically prefer Cherry MX Clears, but for my gaming rig I wanted to try out linears so I have a red switch variant. I also chose the aluminum rails, which make the keyboard feel like an absolute tank. There is a lot to like with the Keychron K2, but there are a few key downsides. Firstly, the keycaps on mine are not very good quality. The page says they should be double-shot not, but I don't think mine came with double-shot as the legends are wearing on some keys. This is compounded by the difficulty in replacing the full keycap set, since many of the keys are uniquely shaped/sized for this form factor. The shift key, and the home, end, pgup, and pgdn keys are all abnormal sizes compared with a fullsize keyboard. My second gripe with this keyboard, which I assume extends to Keychron's full wireless lineup, is that it takes multiple seconds for the keyboard to start accepting key inputs after my login screen appears--even though I am using it as a wired keyboard with Bluetooth turned off. They really should take the time to correct this in a firmware patch. Last issue I have, and this could so easily be corrected, is that there isn't a single page on their site or in a manual with all the possible hotkeys to control the keyboard. A reddit page exists that has most, but even it is missing some. Why not have your firmware dev just make a list of all the hotkey combos so they can be in one place? This next item isn't an issue, but more of a request to Keychron: please do invest, as I think you already are, in software engineers to create software for your keyboards. They are amazing products and they deserve to have software controls and keymapping available. I spent most of this review talking about what I didn't like, and that is because a good keyboard shouldn't stick out. When I interact with this keyboard, it is an extension of my mind. I sometimes stutter as the layout isn't familiar, even after months, when aiming for home, end, or delete--but they keyboard itself is almost flawless in execution. I will be buying more Keychron keyboards in the future, and potentially leaving their competition on the shelves.

I've been looking for a mac minded mechanical keyboard for a while and just stumbled upon the Keychron brand. The lighting was probably the least important factor for me in choosing a mechanical keyboard but I was really blown away by all the crazy features built into this keyboard. I also didn't do my homework but now realize this is a bluetooth compatible board which is awesome as well. Admittedly I'm not a keyboard connoisseur and I haven't had this but an hour, so this is more of a first impressions review. Overall the typing experience feels petty similar to other mechanical keyboards I've used in the past with a few exceptions: They keytops have a sort of "rubber" feel to them which is very different from my PBT double shot Leopold keyboard. It almost feels like I have something sticky on my fingers which I imagine would take some getting used to. For example, if I'm sliding my fingers on from the "E" to the "D" there is some added resistance (this is probably bad typing form but it works for me). The case is indeed very high as some other reviewers have pointed out, and though I don't usually use a wrist pad it does feel more natural to have one with this keyboard. I'm using the "red" switch board and it feels pretty good. It's definitely not super quiet like my mx cherry silent Leopold but it's also not nearly as clicky as the blue or buckling springs I've used in the past. I think this really comes down to personal preference. This keyboard has a TON of features built in and the mac native designed is very much appreciate, which grants this a 5-star rating. Check out the video review attached to see the keyboard in action and the awesome lighting programs. For what it's worth I'm mostly typing "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" over and over, or just mashing the keys to show off the light functions.

Nice and sturdy, might need a palm rest, but love the feeling. Great for gaming, great for typing, if you come from a laptop or low profile keyboard might take a little bit of getting used to, but it's a great upgrade and it will last you a while, this thing can take a beating Lights are nice, you first sort through the light patterns, then you can select a single color or multicolor profile for that pattern, all of this is done through the keyboard, no software, so, unless you want to change it a lot, it's no hassle at all to find a profile you like, set the color, and you are done. Cable it's pretty nice quality too, braided to avoid tangling, it's a bit odd the choice of making the USB C an L shape and putting it on the side of the keyboard, instead of straight and on the back, but I like better having to look on the side instead of the back to plug it in/turn off and on (although it has a auto sleep mode of... 10mins or so), or changing from Bluetooth to Cable... On Bluetooth and M1 mac's Bluetooth side, seems to have been patched out, this is the only Bluetooth connected at the moment to the Mac, but there's still several devices around: No connectivity issues so far!

The product is legit! And it delivered so early! Thank you!

Es muy comodo para trabajar, el click de las teclas es agradable no muy ruidoso, para jugar tambien es muy comodo ya que es muy compacto y no estorba el uso del mouse, el único inconveniente por asi decirlo es la distribución de teclado pero en lo particular y como desarrollador no dificulta nada el trabajo.

I'm typing this review on my K2v2 and I'm extremely impressed. I previously tried the Keychron K2v2 hot swappable model but due to a product defect, Amazon allowed me return it for a full refund. I decided to try the non hot swappable model which is this one. The legends are sharp and clear on the grey colour keycaps and it has a striking appearance especially with the RGB lighting, however as these keycaps aren't double shot I suspect they won't last as long. The battery life is fantastic and there are no issues with bluetooth pairing. Everything works as it should. The gateron red switches are satisfying and very smooth to type on providing a nice thock sound. I think they must be pre-lubed as they feel much better than Cherry MX keyboards I've used in the past. Overall I can highly recommend this keyboard for it's rich feature set and aesthetics. I won't be changing my switches so I would recommend going with this model over the hot swappable one due to the brighter backlighting and better colour keycaps, but some may prefer to have the removal switches.

Bought this keyboard to replace my Razer Blackwidow V3 Mini and even though this keyboard costs 1/3rd the price of the Razer Keyboard it has been 1 million times better in both the feeling of the switches and the aesthetic of the keyboard. I also appreciate that this keyboard is made to be fully compatible with Mac and windows since I switch between the two very often. Can’t recommend this keyboard enough for a wireless setup and has amazing build quality.

Es cómodo aunque un poco alto pero nada que no se pueda solucionar, tiene muy buena sensación y muy buenos colores.
