An Epic Core Inside The Keyboard

A powerful ultra-low-power ARM architecture MCU equipped with 128K Flash will provide more flexibility for developers. The polling rate is 1000 Hz right out of the box, which makes the latency hardly noticeable even in competitive games.

Switch Layouts Between macOS & Windows

Built with the Mac users’ experience in mind while still retaining compatibility for Windows devices, the Keychron V1 comes with a system toggle and an additional set of customized keycaps for both Windows and macOS systems. You can now save two different layouts on the keyboard, one for each system.

Program V1 with QMK & VIA

With full QMK and VIA support, you can easily program and remap each key on the keyboard. The open-source firmware means endless possibilities for keyboard layouts, shortcuts, backlight effects, even the knob, and more. 

Programmable Knob

Designed to enhance your creative workflow, its aluminum rotary encoder allows you to customize your favorite keys and macros on the knob through the VIA software with ease.

You can easily customize the V1's knob to your desired key or macro commands like zooming in/out, adjusting screen brightness, brush size, volume, selecting video clips or photos, or backlight hue.

Hot-swappable

The hot-swappable sockets are mounted on the PCB, so you can install or change the switches without soldering. The PCB supports both 3-pin and 5-pin MX mechanical switches.

South-facing RGB LED Lights

The south-facing RGB LED is designed to better illuminate the keyboard backlight from the typist’s angle. The south-facing RGB is also free from interference when the users install OEM or Cherry-profile alternative keycaps on the keyboard.

Pre-lubed Keychron K Pro Switch

By optimizing the switch mold, the K Pro switch wobbles less than a standard mechanical switch and feels smoother on each hit. Plus, the factory pre-lubed process on all the K Pro switches (exclude the clicky ones), no doubt this will ensure the best smoothness at your fingertips when typing.

Amazing Keyboard

This is the first time i bought a mechanical Keyboard, so i dont have much to compare it with, but so far im extremely happy with it. The build quility is amazing, the keyboard has a nice weight to it and just feels like a high value product. Coming from mostly typing on a thinkpad, the Keychron K Pro Browns are a little to light for me, but otherwise feel really smooth too. All in all id definitely recommend this keyboard for anyone looking for an affordable fully assembled but customizable keyboard.

Shipping to central europe took about 10 days and cost around 15€.

Just amazing

Just bought this V1 with brown switches, in ISO FR layout ; and it's simply amazing. Keycaps are high quality, typing experience is very nice, the keyboard itself is very solid and heavy, even if the case is in plastic. Backlight is very bright and highly customizable, and the compatibility to the MacOS systems is way ahead the concurrence, which simply doesn't exist. The box includes everything you'll need to disassemble the keyboard and is very premium. Yes, how a box is is a little detail, but it makes all the difference.
The delivery was a bit scary, considering I live in France and the thing was coming from China ; but even with all the weekends and public holidays that were on the moment I ordered, the package was still delivered only 10 days after !
Overall, I will encourage anyone in my situation to go ahead and buy this amazing piece of hardware. I swear you won't regret it. Well done Keychron.

Love it

Super good quality product, the case beautiful and solid. The only little regret is the ABS keycap. But considering my need for iso layout, I still pick this one.
