Keychron K10 Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Hot-Swappable 104 Keys Full Size Gateron G Pro Red Switch, White LED Backlight USB-C Wired Bluetooth Professional Office Keyboard for Mac/Windows

The media could not be loaded.  My review is for the Keychron K10 Full Size Mechanical Keyboard, model K10-G3 with white backlight and brown switches.In my search for a dual-purpose gaming and workstation keyboard. I tried 6 different keyboards, the first four I tried were ones I had lying around and the other two I purchased. The first keyboard was a corded 104 key mechanical keyboard. I was never able to identify the color of the switches for that keyboard but if I had to guess, they were similar in feel to a red switch. Most of the information I found showed that many gamers preferred a red switch but because I was using this as a dual purpose keyboard, I think that is what turned me off to it. I then tried 3 other membrane keyboards and they were good for my workstation but certainly not good for the gaming side. After trying and not liking any of the keyboards I had in storage, I began my search, first determining the criteria for the keyboard. The most important thing I wanted was, it had to be wireless and capable of being Bluetooth linked to more than one device. Next was feel, so I did some research on types of switches, and determined which had the best feel for me. The 3 most common types I found were Linear (Red), tactile (Brown) and Clicky (Blue). This link may help you with determining which switch may be best for you (Key switch types 101 | CORSAIR:EXPLORER) In the end, I chose a Tactile or Brown switch. Fortunately, I was able to determine what switch was best for me, by visiting a local retailer who had a display of different keyboards that you could try out. This was very helpful. The third thing I wanted was a backlit keyboard for use at night and in low light settings. One of the keyboards I purchased had a RGB backlit keyboard and I found this to be awful and just ended up turning the backlight off entirely (I returned that keyboard, not just for the light, but that certainly didn’t help) This led me to realize that a white backlit keyboard was the best choice for me.This all led me to the purchase of the Keychron K10 and I am completely satisfied with my choice. The keys are smooth, are Hot-swappable for easy replacement, pre-lubed (at first, I wasn’t sure how much of a difference this would make but I certainly like the feel), and they have just the right amount of noise to make them heard but still not be overwhelmed by the sound. The board comes equipped with IOS keys, but included in the box are Windows keys, along the tools to swap them out (super easy in less than a minute).Connecting to a device. The connection process is quick and easy, and it does not require any additional programming or application. I currently have it linked to my gaming computer and work laptop and changing between the 2 is flawless, but I feel that I should state that both devices are not active at the same time.As for the battery life, I had charged the battery after the initial setup, and it lasts about 5 days of use (about 40% backlit use) before the indicator light comes on. On the plus side, the battery can be charged while the keyboard is being used, so there is not any downtime, just connect any usb-c charging cable with a 5v source and you are ready to go.Backlight, the white backlight is just enough to identify the keys but not so bright that it creates a shadow or puts off a glare. The instructions say that there are 15 lighting effects, but for me, I go plane Jane and choose either on or off.Let’s talk about quality. This thing is insanely well made and solid as the foundation of the earth. You really got to feel the keyboard to know what I am saying, but when say solid, I mean SOLID! This thing is just a touch over 2lb and hands down one of the heaviest keyboards I have ever used. I laughed when one of the other reviewers said that it could be used as a home defense weapon. If an intruder broke into your home and you hit them with this keyboard, you would inflict some hurt. I would even go so far as saying that the keyboard would not even know it happened and you would still be able to use the keyboard after the cops left. It’s that robust!How about cost? My brother’s keyboard cost him $200+ and is nice for sure. But is it worth that kind of scratch? Before I bought the Keychron K10 I would have said yes for sure! But I feel that this board, at less than half the cost of similar boards in its class, is without a doubt rising to the top and you get more bang for your buck. It is not lacking anything in its performance, battery life, connection capabilities, feel and price. What more could you ask for?Let’s talk cons. As with anything, there are somethings that simply don’t work for everyone and no matter how good something is, if you look hard enough, you will find what doesn’t work for you. For me it was the height of the keyboard’s front edge. I measure it to be about 1-3/16” tall at the front edge (measured from the desktop surface to the front edge of the spacebar) and it required me to purchase a wrist rest ($8 on Amazon) to keep my hands from having to hover without support.Well, that’s my review.

I've used several other keyboards from other brands, but this keyboard feels very good to use. Very easy to setup. Although not important, I really do like the holographic packaging with this keyboard.The keyboard can be used via bluetooth or via USB C. The keyboard comes with a USB C to USB A cable (braided). I am currently using it wired and the port for it comes out of the left side of the keyboard; the port on the keyboard is USB C.The keycaps can be swapped around as needed (for if you're on a Mac or PC). There is a switch on the left side of the keyboard that will switch the key layout to Mac or PC. You can also toggle between wired connection and Bluetooth. The backlight is also gentle on its highest setting which is nice if you leave your keyboard on at night time. This is not RGB, but has a white backlight with several patterns you can toggle between.The keyboard does have a sleep mode to preserve the battery if you do use it in Bluetooth mode. You can disable Sleep mode if you desire (there are instructions included with the keyboard that show you how to do this).The switches can be hot swapped with other switch types (blues or reds). I got the Gateron Browns (as I am used to Cherry MX Brown switches myself) and they feel good.Keycaps are matte which is good and they look good. I am very satisfied with the keyboard and would recommend this to everyone.

This keyboard is great! The keyboard feels beefy in my hands as it is heavy. The keys are very responsive and it is a pleasure to type. The feedback from the keys is great. The clicky sound reminds me of those keyboards I used to use way back in the mid-80's and early 90's. Even though it is a full size keyboard, it still fills like a small footprint.This is a great keyboard and well worth the price I paid for it. If you will be typing for extended periods of time, this is your keyboard.

Great feel (a clicky mechanical keyboard). you can charge it via USB C (which also acts as a regular USB connector), or use the Bluetooth connection. One thing to get used to. If you don't type for a couple of minutes you have to hit a key and give it about 1 second to reactivate. if you just start typing the first 1-3 letters won't show up. Not really a problem though.

Love the way this thing feels and lights up. Also love that it can change lighting patterns, only downside is no rgb but Love the white more anyways.

I bought this product as I began to make my new work-from-home set-up. I've had the keyboard for about a month now and love all of the features it offers! I personally ordered the "brown" keys and they have that perfect amount of click for a work-from-home set-up. If you're interested in ordering this for in-person work, I would recommend going with keys that are less "clicky" than the brown feature as it can be loud at times.Pros:- automatically reconnects to your computer when you turn it on- various light display options- comes with an easy-to-you key removal kit (I take off the F1 key)- descriptive manual for first-time set-up- easy adjust between PC and Mac interface (ex. "alt" vs "option" key)Cons:- a little high, so I have to hover my arms above the keys- takes ~5 seconds to power up and reconnect to your computer (if you hit a key to turn on your computer, it won't turn on your computer - you have to wait a few seconds to hit it again - I expect this is standard with most bluetooth keyboards)

I love the price point of these KeyChron keyboards. This are great keyboards to get if you're looking to learn modding for keyboards and building around it. Even if you didn't plan to mod these keyboards, they still sound good for what you get out of it. The switches are Gateron switches which are quite nice. If you're looking for tactile and clicky keys, go with the blue switches. If you're looking for more of a gaming experience and just quieter keys, go for the red switches. In both cases, this keyboard could at least use some keyboard foam to dampen the sounds a bit.
