I have this keyboard with the optical banana switches and also the K1 Pro with brown switches.
They are both great and sometimes I have a hard time deciding which one I like to use more!
The only downside is because this is the K1 the stabilizers are not completely in line like a normal keyboard (or the K1 Pro) so finding other keycaps can be an issue. However, the stock keycaps are fine for me and the typing experience makes up for it.

The feeling of typing actually surprising me with this price range, fairly cheap with solid build quality and good type feeling, I would recommend it.

Keyboard struggles to connect to my bluetooth so I moved the bluetooth adapter to literally 2 feet from the keyboard. Still so much lag this keyboard is almost useless. Like the form factor. But it is not worth the $
edit: after a few more months I’m giving this piece of trash 1 star. If you like lag and slow input then this is for you. In fact if you like that you should LOVE this piece of garbage

Very good typing experience but there’s a couple things that are making me consider returning it.
First, while I knew it didn’t have “flip-out feet” to tilt the keyboard, not having them its bigger problem that I anticipated based on the key inclination, so it turns out to be a meaningful exclusion. The K1 SE model has them and it’s surprising this one doesn’t.
Secondly, the Bluetooth connection is perhaps its biggest problem. Sometimes (not very common but has happen to me at least twice in the last 20 minutes), at random, it intrudes a considerable typing delay that is not just distracting but problematic as you are not sure if the input even went in.
Lastly, this series is not supported by VIA, so it doesn’t seem like I can’t change the key mapping.

I love this keyboard! It is great for gaming and typing! Most gaming keyboards have high keys and are uncomfortable to type on. This keyboard gives you the best of both worlds.

I got it for $45. For this price it is an amazing keyboard. It’s very sturdy. I don’t agree with many people. They says, mint switches are for people who push hard the keys. Overall, it’s a perfect keyboard.

No fancy features, no tilt adjustability was a huge downside for me, and the keys could be softer maybe with living the keys it will feel better however it’s pretty nice quality and very sterdy, does not feel cheap at all. I use for work and it makes my typing experience a lot better

Amazing, well-built keyboard and worth every penny if you can catch it on sale for $60 or under. I recently got me a Logitech G915 and that has sadly became my main gaming keyboard but that keyboard is 3x the price of this amazing keyboard. But for the office I still use my Keychron K1 (Red switches) daily and still love it. Please note the light button in the top right corner will annoy you if you hit it by accident since you have to cycle through every option to get back to the original setting. That’s literally the only gripe I have with the K1.
