C2 Pro

One option is to buy a keyboard you like that says “hotswappable switches”. You can buy the switches separately and install them yourself. It’s a lot easier than it sounds. The ‘thocky’ ones I use is the Akko Bittersweet switches, and I installed them on my Keychron C2 Pro. A keyboard that doesn’t r

Be aware of: The default space for macros (and the number of) is not nearly enough for any serious use of macros (you will very quickly run out of space). It is relatively easy to increase if you know how, but it requires recompiling the keyboard firmware from source code. An alternative without any

That bricked one? Nope. It gathers dust waiting.Another one, i got later as a replacement, yes. Keychron published samples quite some time ago https://github.com/Keychron/qmk_firmware/tree/2025q3/keyboards/keychron/c2_pro_8k Though Artery chips flashing is not yet supported by QMK Toolbox. There are t

Greetings all! So, I've been wanting to upgrade from a wired Redragon 100% keyboard I got (can't remember the model number) and so I've been in the lookout for something. To be honest, I would normally be satisfied with my current keyboard. But I've grown tired of having to swap out switches every m

Re "Shall I return the keyboard and get one that has QMK full support?": I would But not before finding a suitable alternative (that is actually available). A wired-only keyboard, like V6, gives access to the very latest version of QMK. And Vial is a (realistic) option. But it has the blinding light

For me, step 1 is keyboard. Keychron is my fav, they have tons of options and configurations, here's a helpful guide: Keychron C Series (e.g., C1 Pro, C2 Pro) – entry-level, wired-only boards that start around $40–50 for the bare-bones versions. Keychron V Series (e.g., V1, V2…) – wired plastic gask

Gonna try asking a question here again. I found the right keyboard for me and my budget needs, the Keychron C2 Pro 8k. Very cheap at 60 dollars for having QMK and firmware whatever and hotswappable switches (really wanted that just in case and for repairability) and it's full sized. I got it and I h

Re "for the source code to be available": It is available, but in a new branch, "2025q3" But Keychron never announces anything. They just dump the source code on GitHub, without telling anybody. It isn't yet clear what "2025q3" is supposed to be contain, but my current guess is that it is only for t

I have keychron C2 PRO bought 2 years ago. Several months ago it started to have double strikes, some keys are randomly repeating. It got worse and worse, I tried everything including deep cleaning from dust. It didn't help. Additionally, it doesn't have hot swap, switches are soldered. Also I have

Doesn't seem to be available in my country What about the the Ajazz AK820 MAX and Keychron C3 Pro They are available for around $60 and I've seen them mentioned as good keyboards a lot, but I'm unsure about their latency The C1/C2 Pro were reviewed to have good latency on rtings so I'd assume the C3
