In search of thock - Keychron K8 Pro review

Does it support the VIA software to customise the keys?
I don't see it on the VIA site. Not sure what VIA even is really.
Someone did port QMK for a bunch of Sonix boards, which the K556 is a rebrand.

On the Github page it says this:

  • Is VIA supported?
Short answer: It depends but is compatible.

Long answer: Some keyboards doesn’t have the necessary JSON file and/or VIA keymap, if they are not present you can help us activate VIA for it.

So the answer is maybe?
 
If it's not a Wooting with rapid trigger, I don't even want to hear about it
 
I got myself one of these last year.

Honestly the nicest keyboard I've ever owned and it's done wonders for my wrists.

Looks like it's in stock with Wootware, cheaper than Takealot for now. Now somebody needs to get stock of the K8 wrist rest.
Yeah seems the wrist rest has no ETA... might be a while. I got the Redragon Meteor M to use currently... for a cheapie it actually works very nice with this keyboard.

The K8 Pro really is a very nice prebuilt mechanical keyboard. Got the tactical switches, I type a LOT faster on this keyboard than my previous Corsair. Gaming is also very nice. I have to say I am quite impressed.
 
Where did you buy this ? Would like this for my office keyboard, but sheesh, quite expensive.
Ordered direct from ZSA. Came to about 7.5k at the time if I remember. This was with the tripod adapters as well though
