Keychron admits to manufacturing defects with their keyboards, does not offer a recall, but offers a blog for people to read. Keychron is not a reliable company, this is not how business is done. Avoid their products.

It's a bit of a shame, I have to admit. I have 2 Keychrons (V8 (65% Alice) and OG Q2 (65%)), and I can't really complain. Both work great. Although I'm not challenging the fact that Keychron is not a reliable brand anymore. Since the whole HE boom, I saw many posts complaining about the quality issu

Forgive me I’m new to keyboards…

You don't need software for any mechanical keyboard unless you want to change the configuration or layout. If the keyboard is QMK you can configure it from Chrome or Edge using usevia.app and possibly a JSON configuration file. Small to large QMK boards: 60%: Redragon K717 Pro * ($30) CIDOO QK61 * ($6

NUT65 - my thockiest board so far.

I've been rocking mine for a week now. What an incredible piece it is. I come from a Keychron V1 and this one is light-years ahead in all aspects. I built mine with womier double-shot PBT keycaps and Huano Sakura switches. The combination is incredible, thocky as heck! The keyboard works perfectly w

And we're LIVE with the official Slay the Spire keyboard collection with a special LAUNCH CODE!

Site says these are themed Keychron V1 Max's. I actually own one of those and they're generally regarded as a great value for their price. Really happy with mine and the latency on 2.4 wireless is super low for any gaming situation. A lot of the price here is in the design and art, but the keyboard

Keychron V1 Wireless Keys are double typing

Re "The firmware change log said it "1. Fixed key double press issue caused by snap action."": It isn't clear if that is really the reason For doubling down on treating the symptoms, Keychron has also at the same time changed the default key debounce time from the already high 20 ms to a whopping 50

Ne, uzmi keychron v1 max, osobno koristim, puno bolja od corsair-a i logitecha Isto 75%, manje para, bolja kvaliteta. Imas i alternative u drugim velicinama, open source driveri koje mozes konfigurirati, osjecaj tipkanja nemjerljivo bolji, ja sam na svojoj napravio tape mod i feeling je ko tipkovnic

75% wireless keyboard with knob

i went through something similar with my azoth last year and the pin connection issue drove me nuts. the keychron v1 max is solid but honestly the nuphy air75 v2 has been way more reliable for me. battery lasts about 3 weeks with rgb on low and the build quality feels way better than epomaker stuff.

Best alternatives to the Yunzii AL-80?

That's frustrating about the seller lying about availability. I ran into something similar last year looking for a VIA compatible board with a knob. The Epomaker TH80 Pro hits most of your requirements honestly - it has VIA, a knob, comes in white, and is around your price range. The Keychron V1 Max

Please help me find a keyboard ( clueless )

for 75% hotswap with rgb, the keychron v1 max is a great starting point - has a knob option and the software is easy. the yunzii yz75 is another solid choice thats a bit cheaper but still hotswap with nice rgb. if you want something closer to 85%, the leobog hi75 is super popular right now for the s

Newbie Keeb recommendation

i started with almost the same list. the Keychron V1 hits everything - 75%, QMK/VIA, hotswap, under $100, and it's pretty slim for carrying around. grab some Gateron Milky Yellows for that creamy feel and sound you want. total should be right around your budget and you'll have a solid first build th
