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

I had a "clicky" mechanical keyboard in my home office, which I loved. However, no one else in the household appreciated the clickety-clack.I hate soft-switch keyboards, so that wasn't an option.This Keychron splits the difference, offering enough tactile feedback to satisfy my preferences, but it's significantly quieter than my previous keyboard, thus preserving my marriage.It feels well built and has held up well to daily work-from-home for more than six months so far. It came with a USB adapter. I would definitely consider another Keychron when I'm ready for my next keyboard.

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-picks1. 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.

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.

I live the American dream. I work 8 to 5 in an office cubicle doing a job that has been proven to be more efficient at home. Let me tell ya: this keyboard is like me and not meant for the cubicle!At home, I have a mechanical keyboard, it’s around $200ish, and it’s an absolute joy. So much of a joy that I decided to try to get a cheaper mechanical keyboard to replace whatever it is they gave me at the office. Why not bring a little joy to the cubicles?Part of a mechanical keyboard is the sound. So I looked up youtube clips of the keyboard sounds and decided to go with the red switches.And I get it! Some people like louder keys, some prefer softer sounds. There are tons of ASMR videos out there. Everyone will be different.But this thing is LOUD loud. The second I took it for a test drive I knew it would be far too inconsiderate of me to bring to the cubicles. I can’t do that to my coworkers. I would consider it at half the volume.They make “silent,” switches on some of the other keyboards that cost more. Those are probably what you need for a cubicle.The keyboard felt fine otherwise. It’s lighter than my other one, but for $50? Seems reasonably built!It probably doesn’t deserve a star taken off, but I feel it must be stressed: this is NOT for an environment where others may be annoyed if you’re going clickity clack all day long!!!So with that in mind: go for it if you wish! It’s not as good as a $200ish custom board, BUT for $50??? I think it’s reasonable for $50. Get your toes wet. Upgrade later if you want.Peace!

Great keyboard! New buyers make sure you know the difference between red and brown switches. Mainly do typing and some light gaming and this keyboard has served me well, love the customization feature for custom macros and remapping keys. Heads up this is not Bluetooth keyboard, but it does come with a USB C connector directly and a Type A adapter on it. Love how it's adaptable to windows and Mac as well

Great tactile feel. Audible click when typing that is extremely satisfying. Build quality is excellent. Individual keystrokes are precise and have an almost perfect amount of resistance and travel depth. Overall a great keyboard that I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase again.

It was a great keyboard. Nice sound, nice feel, worked smoothly. Then, out of nowhere, there was lag when typing. It started with the letter C and then it progressed until the keyboard became unusable. Double spaces, missing letters, double letters. I tried updating firmware, resetting the keyboard, different USB ports, different computers, even different OS and there was still this lag that became worse and worse over time. I can't find any other solutions to get this fixed, so I guess I'm back to my old $20 Logi that has been working for years.
