Keychron K8 Tenkeyless Wireless Mechanical Keyboard for Mac White Backlight Bluetooth Multitasking Wired Gaming Keyboard Type C for Windows with Gateron G Pro Switch Brown

Very nice to use. Still making up my mind as to whether I prefer it over a low profile, but it certainly works well. The light show effects are really cool, but don’t help productivity :)

This keyboard is the best one I've ever used. I would have guessed it's rating would be closer to 5 stars. The feel is very satisfying to me. It's not super loud, and the tactile sensation of pressing the keys is about perfect for me. The size is perfect. The lighting is a plus. It has worked perfectly for me over the couple of months I've used it. I cleaned it recently by pulling out the keys, using a dust cleaning gel, cleaning each cap with a towel, and putting them back, and everything is as good as new. The bluetooth connectivity is consistent, and the battery lasts a decently long time - I would say a couple of days to a week (several hours a day of use) with lighting on medium or high, and it's very easy to connect and use it while it charges. I have a feeling I will use this for a very long time. I also absolutely love how it came with Windows and Mac keycaps as I use both. They keycaps are pretty easy to pull off with the tool or even without it. It connects pretty easily to bluetooth, and I love that it is able to connect to 3 devices. On my Macbook, I was able to use Karabiner to reprogram the keys, and it has worked well. I reprogrammed the top-right keys to more useful shortcuts like opening specific apps, copy/paste, password for my account, and putting my mac to sleep. I discovered this through ChatGPT and YouTube and it is decent at generating the code to reprogram them. I only have a few wishes for this keyboard. Firstly, it is very unaesthetic for the previous, play/pause, and next buttons to not be placed together (see the F7 - F9 buttons in the pictures). They should have taken the extra steps to do so, or picked another design. Next, the top-right button for keyboard lighting is the only one that can't be reprogrammed through software, and since it's in the corner, I often press it on accident, which resets my lighting setting. I always had to switch through all the different light mode patterns for the keyboard, which I don't really ever use, until going back to the one I prefer, which is just the standard always-on light, and there's like 18 patterns so it always interrupted me. I ended up putting a spiraled paper clip inside the keycap so that it's much harder to trigger. I wish the key was reprogrammable in the first place so I could give it a better use. Next, I wish the power button was in a better location and easier to press. It has a switch between 3 modes (on, off, cable mode), but I would prefer an easier mechanism. It takes effort to put it exactly in the middle to turn it off. Luckily I found that putting it on cable mode is equivalent to off as long as it's not connected. Regardless, it would be nice to have just a button, especially on the right side since I am right-handed. But I do really like the switch for Mac and Windows, that works well. Next, the mic button near the top-right never really worked, and it is the hardest to reprogram because it seems to trigger a combination of keys instead of just a simple key. Lastly, the battery indicator LED light distracts me when it is on low battery. It starts to blink brightly until it gets connected, so I had to put a piece of putty over it.

Best Keyboard for portable taking to the office and my home.

If you’re not a fan of red switches- or not a fan of switches which are highly sensitive and you can’t tell whether you’ve touched them or not- this is the keyboard for you. The material on the switches and the weighty nature of the keyboard confers a premium feel to the device. The backlight also looks nice. I believe pricing is appropriate to the quality of the device.

Amazing product.. i love it 🥰
