When I order this keyboard. go-keyboard.com warned me it was a frequently returned item. And I thought, well sure, it’s a keyboard. People are picky about keyboards. They need a certain layout, they want it to have a certain sound or feel to it. Maybe they don’t like the build quality. Maybe the corner got cracked during shipping. Something reasonable and rare like that.
What I did not realize is that THE KEYBOARD DOES NOT WORK AT ALL!!! Perhaps THAT is why it is a frequently returned item. Because it doesn’t work at all.
I know what I’m doing. I tried it on 3 different computers with 2 different USB cables, I tried Wired mode and Bluetooth mode, and I tried toggling the Mac vs. Windows mode on the back. Nothing.

The leds are SO dim on this. I was expecting bright shine through leds but that is not what Keychron delivers. If you want bright LEDs then stay clear of Keychron. Otherwise this is a very nice low profile keyboard.
Minus one star for dim leds
Minus one star for non-shine through caps, have to purchase your own
QMK works great but you have to use the keychron fork, the bluetooth_playground branch.

I have bought a Keychron K1 and it worked seamlessly for more thanks a year, then it started to present problems with keys when typing it would display an array of other letters or symbols. I tried resetting the keyboard and other recommendations but it never fixed. Very disappointed as I really like these keyboards.
