Keychron C2 Pro Wired Custom Mechanical Keyboard Full Size Layout QMK/VIA Programmable Macro White Backlit with Keychron K Pro Red Switch OEM Profile Double-Shot PBT Keycaps for Mac Windows Linux

Key feel is very nice. Reminds me of the old apple II. Feels pretty solid for a budget keyboard.

I just received this keyboard, the keyboard feels great 9/10 for the price, it feels heavy enough and although it's plastic doesn't feel cheap. That being said, the keyboard did not work, it's a wired keyboard that keeps getting disconnected. I've looked online and it seems to be a common issue with this brand, with excuses ranging from "It's the cable to it's your computer or you have to modify such and such file because the keyboards have a weird configuration". In any case, I would not recommend these keyboards, Keychron seems to have a quality control issue, too bad, seemed like a good brand.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Wanted something mechanical, but quieter that others. Full marks for that, but my "T" key occasionally double types, and one of my windows keys came with a scuff mark

Great build quality, good key feel. Very programmable, cool lighting effects (white light only, but it looks good) and while I ordered this one for my gaming PC, I am seriously thinking about getting another one for my Mac! It comes with keycaps for both types of OS, and a sturdy tool to remove the keycaps. If anyone is interested, these keys are compatible with the Cherry MX standard, so you can easily swap all the keys out.

Background: I needed a cheap and quality (oxymoron!) mechanical keyboard for KVM of my 2 laptops. Already had a Corsair K70 for the last 3 years for my workstation. I didn't need all the colors and display disco for almost 3 times the price of this one while keeping the price around $60. I had heard about the Keychron's quality, so decided to spend my money on this. Also, I do not write reviews till at least 2 to 3 months of usage. However, the product is so good that I decided to break that rule. Pros: 1. Great packaging and presentation. Very simple layout of all the items in the box. 2. Easy setup with very clear instructions. 3. I prefer Red keys - these keys have very smooth operations as well as good solid clicks. Furthermore, the spacing of the keys is just right for my hands. My Corsair often misses the keys and slows me down, even after 3 years of practice with it. 4. Compact size with decent heft. 5. Nice cool white colored keys that match the background light of the 2 Dell laptops. The light doesn't feel overbearing at night. Cons: Basically nit-picks 1. The plastic body. Not a con, for the price. But the metal ones do look and feel nice. Cheap beggars (me) can't be choosers. 2. Need dedicated buttons for sound control. Not current FN + sound control setup. 3. Unless I am mistaken, I do not see any buttons for Print Screen and Scroll Lock. Also, Scroll Lock does not have a light to show if it's on. Bottomline: For around $50 this is actually a very good keyboard. If it lasts even for 3 years, I will be very happy. This product deserves 4.8/5.0.
