KeychronV6 Wired Custom Mechanical Keyboard, Full-Size QMK/VIA Programmable Macro with Hot-swappable Keychron K Pro Red Switch Compatible with Mac Windows Linux (Frosted Black-Translucent)

My other keyboard has Cherry MX Brown switches, and it's a great keyboard. The switches are soldered though, and I wanted one that's how hot-swappable. I've also been wanting to try red switches. This keyboard is exactly I've been looking for. Red switches, hot-swappable, wired with no wireless options and programmable keys .Compared to the browns, these switches are so smooth that it almost feels weird. But that's not a bad thing at all. They have a nice clicky sound when they bottom out.This weighs 3 pounds, so it stays where you put it.The keycaps are double-shot so they should last forever. They also look and feel great. They're not translucent so you can see what's on them without the LED's on. Thankfully the LED lights can be turned off. I don't go for that flashy stuff.The programmable keys are great. I've only assigned 3, but that's all I need. I made one for the calculator, and the other 2 are for Power and Sleep. I don't know why they stopped having those on keyboards, but I'm really glad to have them back.This comes with the tools you need to pull off the keycaps and switches, plus a small screwdriver and Allen wrench so you can take the back off if you need to.The only thing I don't like is where the power cord plugs in. It's in the back left corner. I would have preferred the right side, or at least the middle. I guess that's just personal preference. I've added a right angle USB-C adapter to it so the cord now goes down along the back to keep it out of the way.10/10 would recommend.

I love this keyboard! By far my favorite keyboard I ever bought.Pros:- The brown keys are great for typing and programming.- I love the built-in back lighting effects you can also change without software.- I also love the mac/windows toggle switch on the back to help control how the windows key works.- Everything is great quality. Very well built. I don't know how to describe this, but the plastic quality feels really nice under my finger tips, unlike the razer and Logitech keyboards I have used in the past, which the plastic feels glossy, this keyboard feels matte.- It even comes with a neat key hooking device to pull out keys easier.Cons:I wish the letters on the actual keys were backlit.But the pros far outweigh the cons! I bought this keyboard for work and some evening gaming, and I love using this thing!

Although the Full-sized V6 (with cherry red switches) keyboard's overall construction and key action are quite excellent for the price, I was very disappointed to encounter a NON-FUNCTIONAL key (specifically, the "/?" key did not work). However, I was able to disassemble the keyboard and found the cause of the problem. One side of the corresponding "switch pin mating interface component" on the back side of the PCB assembly was not soldered. Fortunately, I was able to solder it and everything works OK now.I thought a USB-C to USB-A adapter would be included since the included USB cable has two USB-C connectors. The documentation appears to indicate an adapter should have been included.The keys do *NOT* allow any backlighting to shine through the key's letter/symbol/name.There appears to be *NO* method to enable and disable the "Win" keys without running the VIA software. i.e., it does *NOT* appear to have the ability to disable and enable the "Win" keys by pressing a key (or key sequence) on the keyboard. So if you like to disable the "Win" keys while gaming but want the ability to quickly enable them, it will take more effort/time than pressing a single key, key sequence, or activating some sort of toggle switch/button.The CAPS LOCK active indicator is too subtle in my opinion. If your hands are in the normal home typing position, the change in back-lighting of the CAPS LOCK key can be easily missed. It would be much better to have a CAPS LOCK indicator light located either at the keyboard's top section, or perhaps in the area in between the arrow keys and "DEL, END, PAGE DOWN" keys. The NUM LOCK indicator is also subtle, but is more noticeable due to not being obscured by one's own hands.Additionally, if there is a current method, or a method is added to allow the enabling/disabling of the "Win" keys without needing to run the VIA software in a web browser, then an additional "Win key disabled" indicator light should be provided as well.The documentation provided (as well as that accessible online) needs to be improved. My recommendation is that someone not familiar with Keychron keyboards, and who is actually fluent in written English, be hired to check the documentation for completeness and correctness. I just found the documentation to be lacking for such a quality product.Other than the aforementioned issues, the keyboard provides quite a bit of "bang for the buck".

Types well, is compact, and has some nice features.A friend of mine got me one of these keyboards for a past birthday (what I ordered here is a replacement), I found that typing on it feels nice and it's got a good placement of buttons and nice tactile feedback.(Since I believe it's a mechanical keyboard).You can also remap some of the buttons, change the backlighting if you care for those sorts of things. Though I mostly just use it as an everyday kinda keyboard (nothing fancy for me, ha ha).Regardless, if you want a high quality keyboard, I'd say this one is a good pick.

Bought this during Black Friday for $65 as a keyboard for work, I also own a Keychron at home albeit different model.The brown switches feel great and aren't too loud to bother my cubicle mates, and honestly make typing pretty fun at work.
