Solid choice for a low-profile Keyboard

I was looking for a low profile keyboard of office use that could work between my windows computer and iPad. I went for the K5SE optical with mint switches and I am loving it so far!
Connectivity is great and I can switch between devices almost instantly with one function key.
Typing feel is amazing and the keyboard feels really sturdy and good quality!
Would definitely recommend

Great keyboard this outdid my expectations

First mechanical keyboard and it works great. Typing feels good, it's tactile and sounds good (not too loud). It's a little flat which works well for me.

However, It's been less than two months since I received the keyboard and a key is now stuck in. For this price, it shouldn't happen.

Basic keyboard

I purchased this keyboard with brown gateron switches and I must say it's a very good keyboard. I personally like the low-profile keyboards. The keys feel great on touch, they are not noisy. The typing experience is awesome and it looks great with the backlit.
If I am not wrong it has 17 different backlit modes, but only the static suited me, the rest of them looks like a nightclub.

What I don't like:
1. The keyboard has a couple of dedicated keys which don't make sense – "fn + F3" opens task view and "fn + F4" which opens file explorer, but Windows already has shortcuts to do that which is "Win key + Tab" and "Win key + E". Another key which I don't know what it's for because it doesn't do anything is the key between F12 and the mic key. The "fn + F1" and "fn + F2" is for brightness but my PC doesn't have a brightness feature and they don't do anything as well. So I would like to remap those keys but it's very disappointing because this premium expensive keyboard doesn't have any software to do that and it's simply not possible.

2. In my opinion, when using the keyboard in the wired mode it shouldn't be charging the battery. The charging LED is a little too strong and it constantly stays on after it's fully charged. Quite annoying.

3. The battery lasts around 35 hours with the backlit on, and that is very disappointing.

4. The keyboard takes about 2-3 seconds to wake up from the battery-save mode. I don't know if it's good or bad but it seems a little long.

I was really excited about the keyboard. The typing experience is really great but I am disappointed mostly that it's not programmable and can't remap some of those useless keys, so it's just a very basic keyboard.

Excellent Keyboard

This is an excellent keyboard, I'm very happy with it. Bluetooth works great to my PC and Android phone. The low profile makes it easy to fit inside my backpack for travel despite being a 100% keyboard. Switches and keycaps are nice to type on and quiet. I would definitely recommend!

What's the difference between the K5 SE and the K5:

 #1. K5 SE is engineered with reinforced aluminum top case plus plastic bottom case while K5 is constructed with full aluminum body structure.
#2. Added low profile Gateron mechanical hot-swappable version switch.
 #3. Armed with two level adjustable rubber feet to provide ergonomic support.
