Keychron K3 Pro Wireless Custom Mechanical Keyboard, 75% Layout QMK/VIA Programmable Bluetooth/Wired RGB Ultra-Slim with Hot-swappable Gateron Low-Profile Red Compatible with Mac Windows Linux

I really like the keyboard, it feels great! I need two keyboards for my work use case. I wanted something smaller to use along with my C3 pro (great value BTW) that still gave me near the same brown key feeling as the standard profile. This keyboard does that and does it very well. Solid tip for most all mechanical keyboards, buy rubber o rings that go under each key. Just search for keyboard o rings. They soften the bottom of the keystroke and do wonders for the loudness and chickity feeling that you can get from mechanical keyboards. It made a huge difference on this keyboard. Some things to note just in case they may bother others. I'm fine with them. The USB is from the back with no routing option. The C3 has the port under the keyboard and you can route the cable from the left, right, or back. This keyboard doesn't, I wish it did. The keycaps aren't for backlighting, they have zero transparency. The back light lights the base of the keyboard under the keys. Kind of odd. I had some low profile keycaps intended for backlighting that I put on. The lights aren't nearly as bright as the C3 due to the structure of the low profile switch(key). There is a dedicated light mode button on the top right of the keyboard. Backlit keychron boards us FN+Q to change light mode, this one does too. This was a waist of a key. Delete would have felt better in the corner. The corner is an easy to find key for a function that you will hardly ever use, which is also redundant. I had another keyboard with nearly the same layout, but didn't have the delete, page up/down, end, and home buttons. I couldn't ever get used to it. It didn't take me long to get used to this layout. For me those things are trivial and this keyboard is a top tier, brown key, low profile, typing experience. (just don't forget the o rings, you'll thank me!)

My concern with mechanical keyboards has always been the taller keys and the large platform and impact on my wrists (regardless of whether or not that is technically the "correct" way to type) - I find myself being able to type more easily on a lower keyboard. Second is the clicks and the impact on my virtual calls as folks hear my typing. This keyboard is awesome - checks all of those boxes. Definitely a lower profile, but you get all of the positives of a mechanical keyboard and the brown switches are really great - they give wonderful typing feedback and help with accuracy as you know when keys are hit audibly. The keycaps have a really nice texture to them that is subtle but noticeable and gives the feeling of a really high quality keyboard in combination with the switches mentioned earlier. I wasn't sure about the 75% layout, but I have not missed the numeric pad at all and really appreciate how much is packed into a 75% layout in terms of buttons I actually use versus buttons that I would never use. The fn keys are the right ones. Only downside is that I have had some trouble connecting to multiple devices and switching the bluetooth connection hotkey. It doesn't seem able to switch back to my PC without resetting the bluetooth connection.

Okay, so I wasnted to start using a mechanical keyboard so long, the price always was a drawback, since getting a cheap one i was skeptical of it. I saw a loot of reviews and read some forums about in what to start. Getting to use a laptop keyboard for very long got me to get a low profile keyboard since i was used to to the feel of it. This k3 pro is great, keys are feel fine, rgb is good (could be better if they were brighter), you can change the keycaps and switches with another 3 options. Can't tell you how the brown switches feel(the ones I ordered) since I got red switches. they feel fine but I really wanted to try the brown ones, you can buy the switches in bulk and exchange them with some time and effort, but thats the entire point of getting mechanical keyboard. Try, modify, test and enjoy yopur experience. Built quality looks good also, Just got 1 issue with one keycaps that felt loose, and saw the Guides broken. Good thing that it was the Enter button and there is a replacement in another color in the box. only downside of this pro is that it doesnt have a Dongle, later a knew there is a k3 max that comes with it. but is the normal k3 not a pro version. Nothing that important. So I still recommend this keyboard if you want to start using mechanical, it not exactly a true mechanical since its a low profile, but if your coming from a laptop, looking something slim that doesn't take that much space in your desk, try the k3, doesn't have to be the Pro version but that adds a plus to your experience.

I recently had the pleasure of using a this low profile hot swappable keyboard and I have to say, I was thoroughly impressed. This keyboard was not only sleek and stylish, but it was also incredibly functional. The low profile design of the keyboard made typing a breeze, as the keys were placed perfectly for a comfortable typing experience. The hot swappable feature also allowed me to easily switch out the keys for a customized experience. This made typing even more enjoyable and efficient, as I was able to tailor the keyboard to my specific needs. Despite its low profile design, the keyboard still managed to provide a satisfying typing experience, with responsive keys that provided just the right amount of feedback. The overall build quality was also excellent, with a solid and sturdy feel that gave me confidence in its durability. Overall, I would highly recommend this low profile hot swappable keyboard to anyone looking for a high-quality and customizable typing experience. Whether you're a gamer, programmer, or just someone who spends a lot of time typing, this keyboard is sure to impress.
