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

Keychron is giving its popular mechanical keyboard designs to the community
Yeah, the old ones were bad. They’ve made some pretty good progress on that, though. I finally went back and tried another Keychron (V1 max) and am pleasantly surprised.

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

Discussion: The entry-level mechanical keyboard market is confusing
If you're looking for a 75%, then it's just the Keychron V1. No need to even look at the Max version or 8K or whatever variants that were released later. Availability could be relatively hit or miss though since they don't seem to reliably stock the barebones kit or prebuilt versions with non-clicky

I’ve Tried Most of Kailh Choc V1 and V2 Tactile Switches (+ Gateron KS-33 for Comparison)
Background / DisclaimerI don’t have much experience with mechanical keyboards. I’ve been using Apple scissor-switch and similar keyboards for years. I like them just fine — except maybe the lack of post-travel. I also have a Keychron K3 Max with Gateron KS-33 Brown (aka Low Profile 2.0) switches, wh

What do you think about keyboards with aluminum bodies?
I have three aluminum boards. Cidoo V65, Boyi GMK67, and Cidoo V98. I've also built my friend a Cidoo V75 and a Monsgeek M3, and another friend a Keychron V1. They all feel super solid to type on and very strong.

Keychron Keyboards Quality
I consider Keychron to be my favorite brand. Mostly because I’m a Mac person and they work so well with them. I know other brands have Mac modes now (I started out in 2021 getting into keyboards), but I just like Keychron. In terms of quality, I’ve been happy with all of the Keychron boards I’ve had

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

I'm too picky and can't find a keyboard for my taste and budget
Keychron V1 Ultra* 8k? The wireless is a gimmick but it fits in your price point, is a 75%, has a knob, and looks pretty good. Plus it's hotswappable so if you don't like the stock switches you can upgrade later. Rainy75 is also a very cute board imo and would be my personal pick. Doesn't have a kno
