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

I've been using a Noppoo Choc Mini with Gateron Brown switches for years, and I needed to switch to a keyboard with a full numpad. I was looking for a keyboard with the following: - Full size layout - Tactile/non-clicky mechanical switches (usually Brown) - Double-shot PBT keycaps This fit the bill, and for a very reasonable price. Overall thoughts on some features: The backlighting is nice. It's more for effect since the keys aren't transparent, but I like it. You can do a lot of the same lighting effects I've seen on gaming keyboards. The keyboard has a plastic case (some enthusiasts like metal cases specifically), but I don't mind at all. It's a nice black texture that simulates brushed aluminum, and fingerprints don't show on it. The construction is sturdy and doesn't have much flex. Typing also has a really satisfying "clunk" to it. The keys themselves are very smooth. Similar in class to Gatreon Brown switches in my opinion. No complaints. The caps themselves are also fine, I'm not a huge fan of the font style, but I don't mind it. Overall, for the price, an easy 5 stars.

Keyboard looks and feels great. Only problem is about a week after having it multiple keys started acting up. My 4, L and spacebar would randomly not register or register multiple clicks. It was very buggy. I sent an email to the customer service team and there solution was to send me a new PCB board. It took a month of back and forth communication to finally get the PCB board and worst of all is I had to completely take apart the keyboard (which is not meant to be taken apart) and it cause the tabs to break so the shell is not all the way sealed. It is working now but I feel like it would have been a lot easier for them to just send me a new keyboard and then I send them the broken one and they fix it themselves. Bad customer service, Buggy product on arrival, overall frustrating experience.

This is the brown switch model. The build quality is great, and this thing feels like it will last for decades. I'm not a fan of the side-by-side labels on the number and punctuation keycaps, but I'll learn. I'd also make the nubs on the F and J keys a tiny bit bigger for instant recognition when I'm not at the perfect angle. One more niggle is probably just a incorrect assumption on my part. I expected more of a distinct tactile feel at the instant the key connects. The feel of the key bottoming out is good, but the moment above that when the connection happens isn't noticeable. The sound is much louder than my old keyboard, but I hear that the red switches are even louder. How much you like is completely a matter of taste, I suppose. It's a nice sound to me, as long as I'm not worried about disturbing others. In spite of what sounds like a lot of complaints I am going to be very happy with this keyboard. It's a big upgrade on the generic one that came with my machine.

For years I've been using a cheap Cooler Master keyboard for my computer at work, but it was worn to the point that the keys were sticking, and half the characters had been worn off the caps, so this week I decided it was time for an upgrade. I'm not a fan of RGB or extraneous controls or over the top designs, so I appreciate that this keyboard is pretty utilitarian in that regard. The backlight is a nice accent without being garish and it matches the light on my mouse. It would be nice if the housing was made of metal, but the ABS it's made of is fairly substantial. This is my first keyboard with tactile switches and for my tastes it feels *really* good to type on. It's nice and punchy, but the sound is subdued enough that nobody in my office has tried to smash it over my head yet. Unfortunately, I've run into similar issues that other reviews here have mentioned, namely that at least one of the keys has had responsiveness issues right out of the box. Specifically, the "U" key on my keyboard only registers a press about half the time. I type fairly fast, too, so it's a persistent annoyance having to back up and correct it. It's actually been getting worse and worse as I type this review. It took me four tries just to type that last "up". Three tries for that one. If I unplug the cable it seems to fix it for a little while, but I might just be gaslighting myself. I've tried swapping cables, ports, and doing a factory reset, but nothing has yielded a permanent fix. I'm going to contact Keychron before I give up and return it to Amazon because otherwise I really like this thing.

Solid mechanical keyboard that comes built with the QWERTY keyboard, but the default windows keys (like the WIN key and ALT) aren't on by default; you have to pop the others out and put them on. The lights are a nice touch, and someone more creative than me can make them dance wonderfully. It sets up easily, is properly responsive, and doesn't cause these lightly arthritic hands any issues.

Unfortunate. Inputs miss and double. The keyboard feels nice, but it's unusable because of its inconsistent input on several keys. Same issue as all the other one star reviews.

A great mechanical keyboard for the price. Not the most tricked-out rig you’ll ever type on, but it has good features and feels solid. Got this for my office after buying a regular C2 hot-swap with gateron browns for my home setup. Wound up keeping the C2 Pro at home because it has south-facing LEDs that work better with my home (more fun) keycaps. My work is 80% typing and the brown switches have been a lot of fun. Keyboard feels a bit hollow, more sound from bottoming out than the switch. IMO the K Pro switches are just as nice as the G Pro, arguably a little less tactile and bumpy. Don’t forget the coiled cable so everyone knows you’re on Reddit.

Looks nice online but it's a huge piece of crap, cheap trash and overpriced considering I just bought even nicer Corsair keyboard for 80 bucks at best buy. Stopped working within a few months, some of the keys don't work when you press down and its super glitchy and delayed. Save your money, spend like 10 bucks more and get a really nice one like I did. Once you compare the two side by side you can tell immediately the keychron is much lower quality than name brand. EVEN the super cheap Logi keyboards for 20 bucks are more reliable than this junk
