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

Bon il est plus vers les 140 ou 150 que

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

PSA: Womier Skyline R3 = Keychron LSA

They’re identical to the keychron stock keycaps that come with the K5 max so I didn’t bother trying. Wasn’t a fan of the originals.

Ultra low profile keyboard recommandations

If you want ULP, you have basically the Cherry KW X ULP (idk if it's available in ISO BE) and that one. If you're willing to settle for a low profile board, you have Keychron K5 Max. You'll have to find replacement keycaps for ISO BE (probably going to be impossible, for low profile) or just deal wi

All Iwant is a black Air75v3 with UK layout :(

my criteria were: 96% or greater size UK ISO low profile of which the only option seemed to be keychron. went with the K5 Max and it's been lovely so far. looks like there are some compatible keycaps that would make it all black, but I haven't tried them.
