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

Government Job = Excuse for a Pink/Feminine WFH Upgrade

Some mechanical keybs with low profile switches feel nice. Like a Mac keyboard, but better. Good brands have different key cap options. Here's a Keychron in white (not sure of AU availability, but gives the idea) https://www.keychron.com/collections/mechanical-keyboard/products/keychron-k5-max-qmk-v

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.

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

Opinions on Mac vs Windows laptop for ultra portable?

Yes, I am already using a Keychron K5Max. It is a mechanical QMK keyboard and a nice person on Readit has been remapping it using a custom one handed-friendly chorded layout. It has been a life changer for me as I have develop moderate Carpeltunnel in my one hand. But, since I started using this new
