1. Keychron C1 Review Verified Buyer – 27 April 2024

   I bought this keyboard on sale for $48 and that feels like a steal to me, even if it wasn’t on sale I’d have zero issue paying full price for this keyboard. I really like how it looks with the backlight on and it just looks great and clean overall. It comes with a handful of extra keycaps, mostly to replace some of the Mac specific keys but I appreciated the black escape keycap to replace the orange one. More importantly to me it feels great to use and type on. I have the brown switch version though I don’t really have much to compare that to but I do know that I like it. I tried a different brand’s mechanical keyboard prior to purchasing this one and even though it was cheaper the quality difference was night and day, the C1 is SO much better. If anything I would consider getting the RGB version of this keyboard but white was definitely the safe choice and still looks great, especially if you aren’t interested in RGB. The cable that it comes with is pretty solid in length and also comes with a USB-A adapter so if you don’t have a USB-C port then you’re still covered. I’ve only had the keyboard for a handful of days though, so I can’t speak on what the longevity of it will be. I would 100% consider buying more Keychron keyboards in the future.

   I have had this keyboard for and a while and what can I say, its a grate keyboard… it looks and functions grate and comes with extra keycaps and tools to remove keys. For its price its 100% worth it…and I’m even happy its white and not full rgb.

   My space bar has started to make an awful sound on one side after only 3 months of use, my previous keyboard I had for 10 years with no issues so I know I’m not the issue in this case. I would recommend avoiding these products if you value your money, tried to contact Keychron for a return / repair, they want me to pay to send it back to them with no timescale of how long it will take etc etc, pretty poor.

   tener en consideración que es un teclado fabricado para U.S.A. Entonces las configuraciones para latam son distintas.

   I have 3 mechanical keyboards in the $70 and under price range. My favorite is the Velocifire TKL02WS. It has a layout that is very similar to the C1, but feels just a little nicer / premium to type on. It’s not a Mac layout, however, and has fixed white key lighting (fine by me). The C1 has a few different lighting options, but the only practical one, IMO, is the fixed white option (none of the others are subtle enough not to seem gimicky).

   Compared to the Keychron K2 the C1 is definitely my preferred one. The keys on the K2 are just jammed together without even subtle spacing to differentiation function keys from numeric keys. Typing on the K2 is error prone, although it does have nicer RGB lighting options and rounded keys that seem a bit higher end / retro authentic.

   If you need a reasonably priced mechanical keyboard for a Mac, the Keychron C1 is a good option. If you’re on Linux or Windows, Velocifire would be my preferred choice. I’ll never by the cramped keyboard format of the K2 again.
