K10 Pro Wireless Custom Mechanical Keyboard Full-Size Layout

Update: One week later I've been using this keyboard for a bit over a week. Without exception, it's the best keyboard I've used for the last 30 years. The switches and keycaps are replaceable, and the switches are rated at millions of keystrokes. I doubt that I'll be around long enough to have problems with keyswitches - but if I do, I suspect that there will still be key switches that I can swap into my then ancient keyboard, and keep it working. I tried a K8 Pro - a similar keyboard without the numeric keypad (you can probably find the review), but it had what I considered to be a fatal flaw. (It was to me, at least). The issue with the tiny switches may be one of little consequence: you may only have to switch between Mac and Windows very rarely (although I expect that I might at some point), and it's easy to figure out the operations of the switch that toggles between Wired, Off, and Bluetooth. I've found that I've even made a subtle change in the way that I use a keyboard. I do crossword puzzles. With my other keyboards, I used the arrow keys to move to open boxes where I wanted to place a letter. Now, I'm just typing whole words -- this keyboard is just EASIER to use. If you have small hands, perhaps, you may find that the keys feel like they're too far apart - but for me, this is the right feel. I may have mentioned the lighting on this keyboard. To me, putting the white lights under the keys make little sense because you can't see the lights through the keycaps. If you like distracting lighting patterns under your keys, there are a lot of choices. My preference is that they're on when I use the keyboard. The lighting doesn't add much - you can't see the keycaps in the dark, so even if you're a touch typist, you still may want some light in the room when you type. I think that the lights were probably an item to be checked off a list in order to compete with the other keyboard manufacturers. For me, the lighting really doesn't add much. But, for me, I expect that I'll be using this keyboard until it falls apart (not too likely), or until the letters on the keycaps are worn down (they're easily replaceable), or until I'm no longer able to type, or I'm dead. It's that good. Original review: I don't know if I've ever reviewed a product so soon after I got it (maybe an hour), but I'm making an exception here. I'd forgotten how BIG a Full Size keyboard actually is - it's pretty big, and an inch or two higher and wider than my previous keyboard - which was also supposed to be full size. The Keychron is a big keyboard, and it weighs about as much as a small laptop computer. BUT it's solid. Because it's wider, I have less of an issue with my fingers clumping together when I try to type. (My fingers span almost two octaves on a piano, so it's not real comfortable keeping them together to type on a laptop or small keyboard. I was looking for a keyboard with a solid feel and easy, accurate typing - and this seems to be it. Ii was looking for a keyboard with Bluetooth that can handle multiple devices (say, for example, an iPad, notebook computer, and Mac or phone). THIS ONE DOES IT. This particular keyboard can be customized. Downloadable software will let you remap keys and create macros (I haven't tried this yet). The keycaps can be removed, and even the switches under the keyboard can be changed. All things considered, the keys give good feedback and aren't too loud or clicky. I have a few issues with this keyboard: The keyboard came with a card (okay, a wide printed paper) that was completely unreadable to me. The fonts were just TOO SMALL. I went to the website to learn more about the keyboard, although this was also on the Amazon product page. Two switches on the back of the keyboard - one to switch between Bluetooth, Corded, and off, and the other to switch between Mac and Windows layouts - are also small and, to these eyes, have labels molded into the plastic that are also unreadable. Printing a manual that can be read by the user would be a nice touch. --- A few things - one of the reviewers complained about the battery - and it almost seemed as if he thought it needed replacement when it ran out of power. This charges over a connection to the computer. It takes quite a while when the battery is fully empty. Another reviewer wanted more variety with the backlight -- there are keys that will scroll through a variety of lighting schemes. One turns the light off and on. This is a solid keyboard. It's easy (for me) to type on. I'll eventually change the keycaps from Mac to Windows (although this isn't usually necessary - I used a standard keyboard for years, remembering that the Windows and Options keys were in the same spot on the keyboard. Something I haven't seen on a keyboard until I got this one was a key that activated Siri or Cortana. After I've had a while to use this keyboard, I'll probably update this review. For now, I'm happy with this heavy hunk of keyboard. I don't expect this to change.

I have been using buckling spring keyboards for many years. I still remember how excited I was to key my first IBM Personal Computer while working in IT back in the mid 80's. IBM computers back then were expensive and built to last. As the years rolled by, my employer was buying Dell which included a very perfunctory keyboard. I could use it and type on it relatively quickly, but eventually I began bringing in my own keyboards. The field service techs would kind of giggle about the old man's quirky habits, but I didn't much care. At home I had been using a true buckling spring style keyboard from a company in Kentucky called UNICOMP. These are very heavy well made keyboards, very much like the ones from IBM in the 80's. The one I was using was about 10 years old and still working great. Until, one day, I spilled my drink on it and then the space bar quit working. I made a half-hearted attempt to revive it, then went online to my favorite online purchase website. I had been learning about all the different styles of key presses and it was a bit overwhelming at first trying to pick a color. Blue? Red? Brown? After reading and reading and reading about the differences, I decided that for me, a person who is simply looking to be able to type quickly the brown keys were the right choice. The other requirement was that the layout needed to be a traditional 104 key style of keyboard. This one has all the right keys in all the right places. I was also interested in backlighting - this was a feature I found useful on my laptops, so I thought it would be nice. Wireless keyboards are also nice for keeping down the clutter, so this one has that feature. Had a few hiccups getting started, but now it seems to work reliably on Bluetooth. If it ever fails to work, I have the USB cable plugged into the computer and ready to go, but after I got it fully charged it has worked great and does not need to be charged often, maybe once a month or every 6 weeks. This keyboard has a ton of features I haven't even used yet. The function keys are going to come in handy with a certain application I use that needs sort of a macro-like way to do data entry, but I have not used this feature yet. The other thing that I thought might be useful "someday" is the ability to connect the keyboard to 3 different devices. I have an iPad that I seldom use, but thought, maybe, maybe some day I might use it more if it had a decent keyboard (I'm not really a Mac person). So coming back to the functionality of this keyboard. I can type FAST on it! That's what I was after. It does seem to be a bit touchy as I occasionally get an extra keystroke, but I think this is just a matter of getting used to it? Or maybe I need a palm rest to keep my hands up a bit higher as I seem to end up with spurious space bar hits. I guess without getting into too much useless detail, I find the key press travel distance the "feel" of it to be pretty good so far, but your mileage may vary. It seems as though this one can be repaired more easily than my old one should I suffer from another spill. After I bought this Keychron I picked up a used K95 and I like it a lot as well.

I bought this to use as my daily office keyboard and it has significantly made work more enjoyable by being able to use a quality keyboard. The board is very heavy and does not like to move when it is being used. The USB cable is a little short which is my only gripe, a third-party USBC cable might be a better solution. The stock key caps feel really good as well and I havent had a desire to change them out just yet. The software used to control the keys and other options is super easy to use as well and I have had no issues.

I freaking love this keyboard! I bought this to replace the wired keyboard at my office. I wanted a wireless keyboard but I also wanted a keyboard that provided feedback when I type. I went down a rabbit hole and discovered the concept of mechanical keyboards. And then I found this one. Wireless? Yep. Bluetooth? Yep again. Clicky? Heck yeah! This keyboard is perfection. The keys are slightly concave, so my fingers don’t slip off onto other keys. The slight resistance helps my typing pace too. My typing pace is much more consistent, and I make fewer errors. And the clicky sound is so satisfying to me! It’s loud enough for me to enjoy, but not so loud that it disturbs my coworkers. The battery life gets me through my week, and I plug it in and let it charge over the weekend. I can also switch between systems, allowing me to work from my pc, or switch to my laptop in an instant. And the price is fantastic. I do wish the wireless full-size keyboard came with more color options, but I’m just really digging deep to find something to complain about. This is the best keyboard I’ve ever owned, hands down.

Rating 4 starts because I've only had this a day. Too son to give it 5 stars, but it's on it's way. The typing action is fantastic, and having a full numpad again is wonderful. I really like the additional mapable hotkeys, and the key mapper at launcher.keychron.com is easy enough to use. The packaging itself comes with some helpful tips like what layers to leave alone. Setup was a snap. One thing I immediately noticed is this keyboard is built like a tank. It weighs a LOT for being plastic and feels absolutely solid - very little flex when trying to twist it. The backlighting works well, though I wish they keys shone through. No biggie and I can replace the keycaps. For the price, I feel like it's tough to beat.

Great keyboard - the key feel is excellent. And that you can switch the keyboard among 3 computers with just a keystroke is just what I needed. I highly recommend..

So far very happy with this keyboard. As others said, keyboard is hefty and lovely to type on. I'm new at the 'big boy' mechanical keyboards (keyboards in the $50 range were not doing it for me any more) - went with the brown switches, seemed to be the safe bet and happy did so. No plans to mod this keyboard but if I wanted to looks like there are many options if I decide to in the future. As other said (and I knew this before buying) the keycaps are not shine through. Not a deal breaker for me as I don't really look at it that much when typing. One question I could not find answered online - In addition to the windows keycaps (which were a breeze to install) I also got a single 'padlock' keycap in the bag. No idea where that's supposed to go... Anyone know?

The keys feel great to push on — give just enough resistance/responsiveness. They also give a clicky sound, but not an obnoxiously loud one. But what I also love are the durable construction of the whole thing, the contour of the key caps (they are concave in a way that seems to perfectly fit my fingertips), its wireless Bluetooth feature (that also allows you to easily toggle between devices with quick hotkeys), its compatibility with *both* Mac and PCs (I use both), and it also just has great visual design aesthetics. (It also has flashly lighting effects, if you're into that kind of thing. I'm not, so I leave those off.)

Really loving the full keyboard. Feels like really good quality. But had to changes the switches - just my preferrence. The stock ones themselves feel pretty good (in my opinion). So, it'll just be up to you if you want to changes the switches, or the keys themselves.

Quiet, tactile, smooth and just so nice to use. The macro software leaves a little to be desired (you need to update the firmware to be able to include time delays, but the firmware isn’t available from what I could see?). Overall, very very very happy, and wish I could justify buying another one for at home.

Súper bien, suave sólido fuerte el teclado

I like the sound and tactile feel of this keyboard. The customisable keys are easy to configure and make for some practical shortcuts.

I bought the K10 non pro version a couple of years back and experienced issues connecting with Blutooth ended up returning it, this one however works great, I have two computers running on different screens and can flip back and forwards with this keyboard no issues. Plus it great to type on!
