Amazing

Best keyboard I have ever owned. Only had gaming and membrane keyboards previously but now having gone into proper mechanical keyboards, I don't ever want to go back. Thanks for the great service and shipping to South Africa. Definitely will recommended

So far, so good. It’s a budget, beginner friendly mechanical keyboard. Their website isn’t the greatest for finding the necessary files for rebinding via VIA (had to do some digging to get the JSON for this exact model) but that’s not a fault of the distributing shop.

The keyboard works great and was shipped in a timely fashion with nothing missing and no apparent damage or issues. They were willing to ship to a 3rd party delivery service that we’re required to use as per our leasing terms. Keychron had refused when I tried to purchase this from them directly.

All in all, it works out of the box and is very satisfying to use. You may have to get used to the awkward positioning of the arrow keys, but if you’re a little more technically savvy you can set up VIA to use a layer and rebind HJKL or WASD to eliminate the need for arrow keys entirely. Happy typing.
