100%-os alacsony profilú billentyűzetet keresek
Alacsony profilú billentyűzetet nem tudok ajánlani, viszont keychronom van arról tudok tapasztalatot megosztani. 3 éve használom, használtan vettem most a 3. switch készletet nyúzom benne, nagyon jó build quality, jó áron és megbízható. A gyártó épp a napokban tette open sourcera a billentyűzeteit,

New firmwares supporting per key RGB settings
I asked them about it for my K5v2 and they said... Thanks for reaching out to us, the K5 V2 doesn't support this feature at present. And we are still working on it, and it will support this soon. ...which is pretty annoying since their site has instructions for setting per-key but no disclaimers or

Low profile shine through keycaps with function keys on top?
I ended up buying a Keychron KJ1 to use with my laptop and swapped the top row with my K5 v2. They aren't a perfect match, but it works for me. https://photos.app.goo.gl/2jSjX4y3vM1ggUqUA

Per-key RGB coming?
A year later did you ever make any progress on this? In launcher my K5 V2 simply says no new firmware is available but I've no idea what version of firmware I have.

Cheap keyboard recommendation for mixed usage
Update fore those who may care: I got a Keychron K5 v2 with banana switches. I love it. I wish it had dedicated volume buttons or spare keycaps to replace the 4 macro ones with easier to see features, but at this point I can't really complain.It was a little on the expensive side tho...

Are there custom keycaps available for the Keychron K5?
I stumbled on this months later, but the K5 V2 doesn't appear to be compatible with other brand's keycaps. Both the womiers & stocks I have from another board don't grab the stems on the stabilizers, it's like Keychron made them slightly smaller.

Keychron K5 SE key remapping
As nice as the K5SE is (have one myself), without having a chip between to change the I/O of the keyboard, that's not possible. Great news, the is the K5 V2 (QMK enabled) https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k5-qmk-wireless-mechanical-keyboard-version-2
