Keychron is a joke

I will say that there are also plenty of people that have not had any bad experiences. In the last year I have ordered a K5 Max and a V6 Max (orders were a few months apart). I use both of them daily and I have not had a single issue. Like I have seen on here i order them via Amazon to avoid having

Thoughts on K5 Max

The Max boards generally have decent connectivity IME. I've tested the K15 Max, which is an Alice layout, 75% version of the K5, and it was super stable and easy to connect Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz. Never had any dropped signal, and never had any issues connecting to a host, which is, shockingly, not a

Im about to pay $90 for Keychron K7, Is it worh it?

I'm a low profile keyboard lover as well. With regards to the K7 Max, I would rather prefer the K3 Max since it has the function row which is super useful for me. Do consider if you want to wait for the K3 HE & K3 Ultra. It's launching soon according to Keychron. HE switches are better for gaming wh

Full-Size mechanische Tastatur - eure Empfehlungen?

Habe selbst eine Keychron K5 Max, unterstützt Bluetooth und mit dt. 100%-QWERTZ-Layout, braune Switches, LowProfile (auf die tippe ich pers. besser als auf "normalen" Keyboards), bis zu 3 Geräte per Bluetooth verbindbar. Bin selbst noch völlig neu bei dem Thema, habe aber den Eindruck, dass ich mit

K5 Max - 2.4GHz Receiver Failing to Pair

The day before yesterday I unboxed the keyboard.The BT and USB modes work normally.The 2.4G mode wasn’t working. When switching to this mode, the keyboard didn’t react at all. The pairing LED didn’t blink (it should blink green), and the key backlight didn’t turn on. I already have a Keychron K5 PRO

Tastatur Anschläge sporadisch mehrfach

Was für eine Tastatur hast Du denn?Bei meiner Logitech G G915 X LIGHTSPEED ist dieses Symptom nämlich nach etwa 4 Monaten aufgetreten. Zwar könnte es auch Staub sein, hier ist jedoch von einem Serienfehler auszugehen (siehe viele Berichte auf amazon & Co) -> Rückgabe ist erfolgt. Nun mit Keychron K5

What's the best mechanical keyboard on the market widely loved currently?

I have a keychron k5 max with brown switches. I returned two before this one. The first one had linear switches (red ones I think) and I didn't get along with them - lots of mistake key presses as they were too sensitive. Moved to brown switches. The second one had two keys that didn't work & a coup

Can I get some reassurance from this subreddit that I didn't make a mistake by buying my Q6?

I don't understand why people are bashing Keychron. I have purchased 2 K5s, 1 K5 Max, 1 K10 Max, and 4 Q6 Pros and NEVER had a single problem with them. IMHO Keychron is a 1st rate quality keyboard.
