K10 104-Key Wireless Mechanical Keyboard

So far I am thrilled with the keyboard. Great price. Great layout. Got the Gateron G Pro Brown Switches and it is the perfect amount of touch feedback when pressing with a really nice spring, really helps reduce hand strain as I type all day. It's louder than a membrane keyboard but pretty quiet for a mechanical keyboard. Battery life seems really good. I got the aluminum one which is nice and solid but heavy. If I had to carry it around a lot, I'd opt for the plastic version for the weight reduction. Keys have back lighting and are easy to read.

You want a fantastic, repairable, upgradable, durable keyboard without giving up your numpad? Don't feel like the 60% keyboard like all the influencers tell you to get is what you actually want?Then this is the keyboard for you (and for me)!I'm typing on the keyboard right now and I love it. My wife doesn't even like using computers very much and she steals my keyboard sometimes just because it is satisfying to type on. The gateron brown switches have a lighter tactile feedback than Cherry MX browns, but I still like them a lot. I will be using this keyboard for many many years to come... And I should probably get my wife one too.Note: The RGB is pretty weak, but that's fine with me because I just wanted backlit keys with solid white anyway which this keyboard does fantastically.

Purchased a Mac Studio computer and I needed a keyboard for it. I made the mistake of purchasing one of the many Apple Magic keyboard clones for sale here on Amazon no way I was going to pay $199 bucks for the real deal. This clone was an Mt Everest-sized pile of cow flop. I went to MacRumors and asked about keyboards. There I was told about Keychron. On their advice, I purchased the K-10. I am s high-speed touch typist and can get up to 65 wpm after a while. When I started typing on the K-10 it was a “sweet mystery of life I have found thee” moment. In the photo, you see the Keychron wrist rest which is a necessary item if you like to rest your wrists in front of the keyboard. I have the Brown Gateron switches. They are pretty good I would like a bit heavier switch. Because this is a hot-swappable keyboard I have many replacement switches to try to get things just right. This Keyboard is setup for a Mac but can be configured for Windows. All it takes to is to move a switch from Mac to Windows and install the supplied Windows function keycaps. This is a rock-solid keyboard heavy for its size.Advice: If you get the RGB version make sure you turn the backlighting off while on battery power and do not disable the automatic sleep mode if the lights are activated. If you don’t do this you will run the battery down in a couple of days. Of course, you can plug it in using a USB “C” cable your computer for power and connection. The sleep mode activities a 10 min of nonuse Get in the habit of pushing the space bar to wake up before you use it. Once connected wirelessly I have experienced zero dropouts in BT. One thing that would be nice is to have the battery state light on top of the keyboard and not on the side.

TL/DR:Nice price to quality/value ratio for an entry into the mechanical keyboard space.Hot swappable switches are nice feature for both flexibility and potential maintenance.No major issues - would recommend!Minor issue with packaging - room for improvement Keychron! (5 stars if it were not damaged)Full Review:I've been around computers for the past 25+ years of my life, I'm always excited when I get to try out some new hardware. I've been eyeing various mechanical keyboards over the past few years, yet purposefully have avoided getting into them due to the market prices for most of the products available. Having lurked around for quite a while, I took notice of the Keychron products, and their products at a "reasonable" price point really drew me into finally trying some out. I purchased both this K10 standard profile, as well as a low profile K5 SE - both with brown switches.Looking specifically at this K10, I was pleasantly surprised by the fit, form, and finish of the product straight out of the box. The packaging itself was laid out well, though the execution of the packaging could possibly be improved (more on that in a minute). Upon opening you'll find a layer of foam, followed by a getting started reference card to point out the various key combinations to perform the built in functions - such as connecting to 1 of 3 bluetooth connections, changing the lighting, etc.As I just mentioned, this keyboard can connect to up to 3 different bluetooth devices (obviously 1 at a time). Switching between the various connections is quick enough, though it's not instantaneous. This is to be expected with bluetooth however, considering both devices need to handshake to establish the connection. I will say that the speed of switching and reconnecting has seemed quite adequate.You can also use the keyboard in wired mode, which a USB A to USB C (right angle) cable is provided. The part of the cable having a right angle USB C connector is important to note, as the USB C connection on the K10 is on the left side rather than the back. From a design perspective, this is one place I'll knock this keyboard, as a rear connection (like the K5 SE!) is much more serviceable.The stock keycaps feel nice - almost as if they have a soft touch coating on them. I'm assuming they are just standard ABS keycaps, so not sure what is done in the process to achieve that finish/feel. That being said, I did purchase a set of PBT to swap out, primarily due to the fact that they match the color scheme of my home office. I would have zero issues with using the stock keycaps, but I would expect them to start to wear and "shine" over time. Luckily, should you wish to keep the stock keycaps, you can buy more from Keychron directly.Taking a moment to step back to the packaging. . .As I mentioned, I purchased both a K10 and K5 SE. Both keyboards came damaged on the top side of the keyboards. Since both of these keyboards were the aluminum variants, the aluminum is permanently damaged, sadly. The K10 specifically has nicks/chunks on the top rail, and the K5 SE has a dent. This is due specifically to how the keyboards are packaged in the box. While neither boxes had any sort of damage on the exterior, the USB cables were both shoved in tightly in the packaging in too confined of a space. This forced both keyboards to receive damage from the USB cable in some manner - either from initial packaging or from some force during transit. Keychron definitely need to consider adjusting the packaging, as 2 out of 2 damage in the same location is kind of telling. Receiving both keyboards damaged is the only reason I am dropping a star.Overall, very happy with the keyboard so far. Time will tell on how long they last, but here's to hoping for the best!

Very nice, versatile keyboard at a fair price. Only a small complaint is that the keys are difficult to read under low light conditions.

Have a Corsair with cherry red keys, which was my first mechanical keyboard. I loved it—BUT—these brown keys are so much more pleasurable. The sound, the feel, I’m super happy with it. Realize that the K10 cannot be fully customized through the Launcher software (get the K10 PRO) if you need that. Love that it’s wireless. It’s just super clean and neat. Beautiful gray and orange colorway is a plus.
