KeychronV6 Max Wireless Custom Mechanical Keyboard, 2.4 GHz Bluetooth QMK Full-Size Layout RGB with Hot-swappable Gateron Banana Switch Compatible with Mac Windows Linux

I love the feel of the keys and keyboard. I don't think you can come close to the quality here without spending a whole lot more money.As a minor complaint, I didn't like how it comes with the Apple keys installed which means you have to swap them out right out of the box. However, it occurs to me that Apple users probably couldn't do the reverse so they decided to make it easier for them. It's a minor complaint.Also, just be aware it is a little heavier than most keyboards - even the plastic version. That doesn't really bother me though as I suspect that is the cost for having good construction.

I have never liked most of the laptop or short travel keyboard I have used. They were so cramped and very uncomfortable to type on. This Keychron V6 Max mechanical Keyboard is awesome. Customizable lighting, from colors to patterns, and a good heavy feel to it. The keyboard doesn't feel like it will rattle away from you as you type on it. The brown tactile keys that I bought feel great without being louder than the laptop keyboard I had. The mechanical feel is just theraputic and the key travel isn't as much as I remembered the cheap one I grew up with 15-20 years ago. Wish I would have bought one before. I plan to use it for photo editing and light coding. The full 102+ key keyboard layout is awesome and spacious. the laptop key boards aren't comfortable to type on in the lap, cuz you gotta balance it all, the stand alone keys are much better. Full sized keys helps with the typing experience. I also had a BT logitech k380 before and it had very stiff keys, were these just fall at the right pressure. Because it is hot key swapable and customizable, in both layout and the type of keys after the purchase, I look forward to rearranging some keys. I came from a Windows and moving to a mac so somethings aren't in the right spot lol. The brown keys are not loud by any stretch, I wonder what the banana (clicky) keys feel like, but the I am glad I did not get the red (linear) keys. I like the tactile feel for sure. Let's me know I got the key pressed without having to slam it down all the way. It is expensive, but it works and for the right computer experience (mechanical keyboard) then it is worth it. A note on the keys, the back light does not shine thru the key itself, but around the keys. The white paint on the dark keys with a big monitor in front of you and the back light on and you won't have a problem, but with a laptop only screen high up on a stand using BT? Idk, not my use case, but I imagine it would not be as easy, just an fyi, only con I could think of.

I absolutely love my new Keychron mechanical keyboard with silent cherry red switches! This keyboard has wonderful sculpted keycaps that have a great feel when typing. The keys move very smoothly and the silent cherry red switches really limit typing sounds which is wonderful in a crowded office environment. It is a good looking keyboard as well. The blue keys give a great contrast to the black keyboard frame. I highly recommend this keyboard!

Love this keyboard. So smooth and buttery. And don't let anyone tell you it's loud. I have a generic (red dragon quality) keyboard and that thing is so loud and ugly sounding. This is like heaven to listen to. I also experimented with silent switches and I definitely prefer these. If I was in an office space around other people maybe this would be too loud. But for my remote home office it's perfect.The stock keycaps are basic, but if you get some accent keycaps (esc, space, enter + numpad enter) it totally levels it up for cheap.My only complaint is that the backlighting is weak. If you're going to focus on RGB, I would change to clear switches so the light comes through, and then get good quality shine through keycaps or puddings.But my solution and this was an overall level up on my workstation in general, was to get a computer lightbar and stop relying on the keyboard for the light. The light bar is supposedly better since it reduces eye strain. I have a BenQ reading lap coming, so we'll see how that goes.

I haven't been using this keyboard for more than a week or two, but have already started to have a problem with one of the keys. The "J" key needs to be pressed with more force than any other key on this keyboard. It seems like it's having trouble with contact. I did check to see if it could be an issue related to the switch, but after swapping a couple of switches, the issue is still present.Upon doing some research, it looks like there is just a general design defect here as others have noted having this issue. I can still get the key to work, but there are a lot of times when I am typing quickly and the "J" will just end up missing. I then have to go back and fix it, which costs me time. I bought this keyboard as I do a lot of typing and wanted to get something that both felt good and could handle fast typing speeds. Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to be cutting it.Overall, it feels great and the backlighting is pretty decent. However, the issues with the J key are likely going to be a major problem. Based on other reviews, it seems like it will get worse over time.Update: I have reached out to support. It was a bit of a painful process to get them to do something with a lot of unnecessary back-and-forth for an issue they should apparently be expecting given quite a few reviews have similar issues, but it seems they are sending a replacement PCB to hopefully fix the issue. Unfortunately, was given no estimate or even confirmation on when the PCB is being shipped. I guess I just wait for it.

Very well built. The keys are very responsive.The 2.4 Ghz dongle would not pair with the keyboard on my MacBook Pro, but Bluetooth worked. Running on Bluetooth was super annoying because the keyboard would put itself to "sleep" after only a couple of minutes of no use. I ended up buying USB-C expansion dock, so I could run it by cable, instead to avoid that issue.I only wish that the backlighting also lit up the letters/symbols on the keys, too, instead of only underneath the keys.
