C2 Pro

One option is to buy a keyboard you like that says “hotswappable switches”. You can buy the switches separately and install them yourself. It’s a lot easier than it sounds. The ‘thocky’ ones I use is the Akko Bittersweet switches, and I installed them on my Keychron C2 Pro. A keyboard that doesn’t r

My last build was a Mekanisk Klippe kit that I spent about $340 on, plus close to $200 for the keycaps that are on it, but I also bought a wired Keychron C2 Pro for my mother a couple of months ago that was about $60. The Keychron is legitimately a good keyboard. It's not nearly as premium as my Kli

Be aware of: The default space for macros (and the number of) is not nearly enough for any serious use of macros (you will very quickly run out of space). It is relatively easy to increase if you know how, but it requires recompiling the keyboard firmware from source code. An alternative without any

Yes, it does say "Red Backlight (Hot-Swappable)" on keychron.fr. I think those pages are definitely listing incorrect information. For example, the information is contradictory: Further down the page it says: "South-Facing RGB LED Lights". u/Keychron-Support

Partially, but it'snot just the gasket. Different keyboards sound different even when they are similar. Not sure about the keycap profiles. Check Keychrons keycap sets to see which ones you like. The name of the keycap profile should be listed as something like ASA or ORM. Yes. The V6 Max is the ful

I just got a Keychron mechanical to replace one that died earlier in the year. A low end Aukey mechanical, used Cherry clone MX blues (Clicky/tactile). Having used in a previous life briefly a buckling spring Model M from IBM many moons ago, I like the feel of the clicky/tactile best. Like you, I'm

wired only? you'll have to check out Chinese brands for that. Otherwise, the Keychron C2 Pro is an option. I have a Zuoya GMK104 Pro that can be gotten pretty cheap on AliExpress, but it has both Bluetooth and Wireless and it works very well. What you can do is grab one and just use it on USB mode a

Thank you so much. I was looking at this C2 https://www.amazon.ca/Keychron-Mechanical-Keyboard-Compatible-Keycaps/dp/B09JG7KRC7/ref=sr_1_4?crid=C3CK4RSA703X&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.AIem3BeJjv-rSYYSq-gMxkreLUBXHPz2sp0NACXxtGS0sZg7Ybdd_bAdnrLq4iBaIPXQRQGQkd6rmLPMVcT_0NBVPiod6nvv8Sk3YZw2OkJwJu9Nh2K-zDKeIofuMxAKlZ

I need a full-sized keyboard, wired only (no battery). Keychron C2 Pro seems like a decent option but a bit on the budget side. What would you recommend from here? I'd happily get a V6 or Q14 if there was a wired only option.

I'm looking for recommendations on a nice tactile switch i can get that won't break the bank. My corsair k90 i got for free finally started having too many chattering issues after over 10 years of use, so i retired it (the switches aren't hotswappable) and i just got a cheap full sized keyboard with
