## Description

Review: Love it !!! - I'm learning touch typing at old age. I was looking for good keyboard with longer key travel, but did not expect this level of quality. Everything is pretty much perfect. Beautiful to look at, good key action (brown switch) with some light tactile feel, nice sound of the keys (creamy = muffled, deeper). The keys have no wobble, while shape of the key makes easier to detect the edge (to avoid other keys). Upper rows are sloped up and bottom has feet at the end. Keyboard is quite heavy and very stable. I appreciate ability to switch between Mac and Windows and extra key tops for it. USB-C cable is of high quality. It comes with tools to pull the key tops or keys. Even the box it came in is nice (I'm going to save it). In spite of my poor typing skills I've worked with many computer keyboards (starting with IBM), but this keyboard is the finest by far. Highly recommended.
Review: Best keyboard to date - This is the best keyboard I've had to date, and I like the tacticile feedback and mechanical feel of this one. The lighting effects are cool to look at, though I don't notice it much when really typing. I will say that if you are a super heavy typer (like me), get some more durable keys that won't wear down quite as fast. The spacebar will start to get smooth for example, and you can get some higher quality keys which are incredibly easy to pop on and off. I do write a lot more than most people, so I'm hard on keys. Most of the people reading this won't need new keys, but a select few of you might know what I mean. Just get the more durable, thicker keys, and you're off and running. Great keyboard, and worth it. I did this one for my Mac, by the way, and it works great.

## Features

- 81 Keys Mechanical Keyboard: The V1 is a fully customizable mechanical keyboard ready for any situation. It’s a great option to introduce you to the custom keyboard world while every component can be easily assembled. With its compact 75% layout, acoustic silicone pad, the V1 is designed for ultra typing comfort and boost productivity.
- Fully Customizable From the Inside Out: To build a fully customizable keyboard, we designed every component easily assembled, including keycaps, switches, gasket, plate, and case foam if you want. With QMK and VIA support, you can easily program and remap each key on the keyboard. The open-source firmware means endless possibilities for keyboard layouts, shortcuts, backlight effects, and more.
- Hot-swappable Support: With the pre-lubed mechanical linear red switch provides unrivaled tactile responsiveness with up to 50 million keystroke lifespan. You can also hot-swap the V1 with almost all of the 3pin and 5pin MX mechanical switches on the market (including Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Panda, etc.) without soldering required. The PCB-mounted screw-in stabilizer for “big keys” such as space bar, shift, enter, and delete are designed for less wobbliness and smooth performance.
- Compatible with both macOS & Windows Systems: Built with the Mac users’ experience in mind while still retaining compatibility for Windows devices, the Keychron V1 comes with a system toggle and an additional set of customized keycaps for both Windows and macOS systems. You can now save two different layouts on the keyboard.
- Double-shot PBT Keycaps & South-facing Backlight: The V1 comes with our unique OSA profile and double-shot PBT keycaps that aim to provide a more comfortable and subtle fingertip feel with excellent oil resistance for long-term use. The south-facing RGB is designed to better illuminate the keyboard backlight from the typist’s angle and free from interference when the user installs Cherry-profile alternative keycaps on the V1.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ After trying 10 keyboards - this was my pick.
*by T***S on April 5, 2023*

I test-drove 10 keyboards to use at home with a Mac setup, plugged into an external monitor. Ultimately, Keychron was the best for me overall. I landed on this V1 for home and the V5 (same exact layout, but with added number pad) for the office. CRITERIA: One of the most important things to me was that the arrow keys had space around them, because I use the all the time, by feel. Many keyboards have these shoved within all the other keys, and no difference. I originally thought I wanted a 75% keyboard, which had the most options for offset arrow keys. I also wanted a delete key in the upper right, because I use that all the time. Again, without looking. WHY THIS ONE: This layout was the best of all worlds for me. It has offset arrow-keys (just enough to separate.) It has my enter and delete keys on the outer edges. It has a knob (a like to have, not MUST to have. Of all the keyboard brands I'd tried, Keychron was consistently high quality, without any bugs or issues. In my search, I'd also tried many different switches. I found BROWN were perfect for me. I wanted some tactile feel, but without extra "thock" or whatever the kids are calling it these days. I thought I might like blues, but found them to be too clicky -- meaning there was an extra, fake click, that felt like clipping a playing card in your bike spokes to sound like a motorcycle. Brown feels right. Feels old school. Feels solid and is not too noisy. I thought I might like the Keychron K8 or K8 Pro. I didn't like the bezel around these. It created an extra lip that my fingers had to go up and over. I like how the V-series has no bezel. They're very comfortable. As mentioned, I also ended up buying a V5 for work. Keychron also won-out because they have Mac keys. Lastly - I was originally hung up on wireless, but here's the thing. I work a hybrid situation. 2 days at home, 3 in the office. I never trust that my keyboard is fully charged, so I leave it plugged in all the time any way. Plus, even if I went wireless, I didn't want it failing in the middle of work, and having to dig out a cable, and find an empty USB slot. I found it easier to just admit to myself, I need wired, and will have to deal with that cable on my desk at all times.
