In search of thock - Keychron K8 Pro review

Still love my Logitech G610... Bought the G910 from Amazon, only to arrive with half the keys working... :mad:

Not enough RGB puke. Everyone knows RGB adds +20fps and +10 skill. The more eye searing the RGB is the better. My Neighbours need to be able to see when my PC is powered on.

You can swap the keycaps for translucent ones and crank the RGB up to 11.

You can even make it flash in all kinds of seizure-inducing patterns to really show your neighbours who's boss.

I wish they would make a keyboard like this with a slightly more ergonomic design.
 
After years of Microsoft Ergo keyboards, this is the best for the RSI prone keyboard warrior -- Cloud Nine C989M

The knob is a bit porno but the rest is great, including selection of Red, Brown or White mechanicals.

And plenty of porno RGB too.

Yeah I'd need a numpad in order for it to be the last keyboard I'd ever need as it would need to handle work as well as gaming, but I get the spirit of the review.

People and their crutches :trollface:. You can always map/remap some keys to the numpad using VIA, but that won't work for everyone's usecase.

There are 96% keyboards that include the numpad in a slightly more compact frame. Otherwise a separate numpad or full-size keyboard are the only way.

But yes, sadly the divine frame of the tenkeyless keyboard isn't for everyone.

Me likely.

If/when my MS sculpt keyboard dies, something like this might be the thing that will replace it.

Been using the Keychron K4V2 for a while, with brown switches. 96% keys, condensed, similar ish to my laptop layout. Only used for "work"... and it is treating me very well!

My Razer Arctosa is 10 ye --- wait no --- 12 years old now and might need replacing, lol.
Served me well, but my next keyboard needs to last twice as long and have mechanical switches, so this will go into the "suggestions" pile with the likes of a Corsair K70, etc etc
 
I agree with the numpad crew, but also much prefer dedicated multimedia keys, at least for volume control.

Not a fan of the need for a "fn" key for simple tasks like that.
 
I honestly cannot justify paying 2 grand for a keyboard when I can type the same speed on a R199 keyboard
