Works well enough. Definitely meets my expectations. Quality of craftmanship is great. I appreciate all the extra tools provided. Great out of box experience. No issues encountered so far.

Very satisfying

This is the first mechanical keyboard I've purchased for myself- an upgrade from the cheap mechanical keyboard that came free with my prebuilt desktop. It's overall a much more satisfying typing experience, both in feel and sound, and a fair price for the board. The weight and materials feel high quality and the keyboard is also nice to look at. Only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is that shipping alone was a little over 30 dollars canadian... ouch.

Best keyboard ever!

This is literally the best bang for your buck keyboard. Feels and sounds like magic unlike any other keyboard I've used. Pre lubed from the factory. Will most like buy another for work.

An Epic Core Inside The Keyboard

A brand new powerful ultra-low-power Arm structure MCU armed with 128K Flash will provide more flexibility for developers. The polling rate is up to 1000 Hz out of the box, which makes latency non-existent for the competitive game.

OSA Profile Double-shot PBT Keycaps

For the new double-shot PBT keycaps, we built a new profile. It has a similar height to the OEM profile and has an SA-like shape. We named it the OSA (OEM spherical angled) keycap. The PBT keycaps will provide excellent oil resistance, enhance the type feel, and prevent the legends from fading out.

Switch Layouts Between macOS & Windows

Built with the Mac users’ experience in mind while still retaining compatibility for Windows devices, the Keychron V1 comes with a system toggle and an additional set of customized keycaps for both Windows and macOS systems. You can now save two different layouts on the keyboard, one for each system.

Program V1 with QMK & VIA

With full QMK and VIA support, you can easily program and remap each key on the keyboard. The open-source firmware means endless possibilities for keyboard layouts, shortcuts, backlight effects, even the knob, and more.

Hot-swappable.

The hot-swappable sockets are mounted on the PCB, so you can install or change the switches without soldering. The PCB supports both 3-pin and 5-pin MX mechanical switches.

South-facing RGB LED Lights.

The south-facing RGB LED is designed to better illuminate the keyboard backlight from the typist's angle with the premium non-shine-through PBT keycaps installed. The south-facing RGB is also free from interference when the users install OEM or Cherry-profile alternative keycaps on the keyboard.

Note: The V1's top case has sharper corners to make it much more compatible with third-party keycaps.
