Keychron K1 Wireless Mechanical Keyboard (Version 5)

Reviews don’t talk about the issues

Pros:
The switches (blue optical) were fantastic. A blend of the Apple keyboard and a mechanical.
Looks fantastic and the RGB shines nicely.

Cons:
Compared to my wireless Logitech and Nuphy keyboards, the keychron takes 1-2 seconds longer to connect to my laptop. I know it’s not much but it’s really annoying. I also find that it randomly drops connection, which I wouldn’t normally realize except the notification on my screen that says the keyboard is now connected.
The SE is probably better because of the riser legs but this version didn’t have any. The angle is not well designed as it feels like I’m typing downhill almost. It’s straining on the wrist and I’ve managed to fix this by propping up the back with some post it notes. Wish I could exchange it for another keychron but for the hassle and cost of shipping it’s not worth it.

Overall: not worth the money for the oversight on design, difficulty in returning or exchanging, especially compared to other competitors

Another decent Keychron keyboard!

I've previously purchased a Q1 for myself and when my wife said she wanted a low-profile keyboard to use with her work computer, I suggested a K1. I hadn't used one before, but based on my experience with the Q1, I figured it was worth a shot as there ware many far worse low-profile keyboards on the market at a higher price... and some aren't even mechanical. The keyboard was well-packaged and easy to set-up and configure for both wired and wireless options. I swapped out the keycaps for Windows (her work computer is a PC). Low-profile is not my preferred style, but she seems to like it so far!

Pretty good

Good keyboard but there wasn't any instructions on how to remove the key switches so I ended up breaking one open (luckily I bought replacements anyway). Over all, really happy with the keyboard and the service, it's just as a first time buyer of a hot-swapable keyboard, I would like a bit more documentation on the hotswap section

What's the difference between the K1 and the K1 SE :

#1. K1 is constructed with full aluminum body structure while K1 SE is engineered with reinforced aluminum top case plus plastic bottom case.
#2. K1 is unavailable in low profile Gateron mechanical hot-swappable version.

The K1 has included keycaps for both Windows and Mac operating systems.

Ultra-slim

The K1 is designed for productivity as a typist's dream, we're bringing all desirable features to a single keyboard; an ultra-thin body (18mm) and switches for a great clicky feel.

Compared with other mechanical keyboards, it requires less force and uses less finger travel, which reduces finger fatigue and provides an unmatched typing comfortability.

Compatible with All Devices

The K1 keyboard works with macOS, iOS, Windows, and Android.

With just a slide of a button on the side panel, you can switch between the various operating systems as easy as pie, and connects up to 3 devices via Bluetooth.

Mac Layout

Many current Mac keyboards are not mechanical, Keychron is one of the few that features macOS function keys (F1 to F12) in a Mac layout with the same as conventional Mac systems. 

K1's Layout

Keychron is here to make typing easier and better. The Keychron keyboard offers several different key quantities, an 87 key layout and improved layout on new version, to best meet your needs.

Compatible with both iOS/macOS and Windows/Android, simply switch between the operating systems with the toggle on the side. Check high resolution layout.

Mechanical Or Optical?

Available in Gateron mechanical and Keychron optical low profile switch to elevate the typing experience with a more slimmer and subtle look, the K1 provides an excellent typing performance, whether you prefer linear (Red), clicky (Blue), or something in between (Brown, Banana, Mint).

Low-Profile Mechanical

Durable and ultra-slim low profile Gateron Mechanical switch with a 50 million keystroke lifespan to provide an unrivaled tactile responsiveness. K1 was designed to boost your productivity yet meets your desktop aesthetics perfectly. Classic clicky tactile or quicker response, for office or personal gaming, the Gateron low profile is the way to choose.

Low-Profile Optical

With the MX-styled stem housing and 0.2 ms ultra-low latency, these light actuated switches are crafted for typists or gamers who want to type at lightning speed with a 70 million lifespan much greater than industry standards.

Keychron low profile Optical red blue brown Banana Mint switches

The Banana and Mint switches comes with an early tactile bump of every downstroke like those Panda switches, that's the main difference between the Banana/Mint and the Brown switch. More add-on switches here.

HOT-SWAPPABLE

You can easily hot-swap every Optical switch in a few seconds to customize your typing experience on the K1 without soldering.

*Hot-swappable feature is available for low profile Keychron Optical switch version only. *Low Profile Keychron Optical and Low Profile Gateron mechanical version keyboards are NOT compatible with any normal profile mx style mechanical switch.

18 Types of RGB Backlit

A bright and bling RGB keyboard with 4 adjustable levels plus more than 18 different color effects. You can alter the color and the brightness correspond to your mood or setting.
