Keychron Apex Mechanical Switch
Meet the Keychron Apex Mechanical Switches. Built with a transparent cover, a dust-proof walled stem, and factory pre-lubrication, they provide smooth, consistent keystrokes. The hot-swappable design allows easy replacement on compatible keyboards, and the switch structure is rated for up to 50 million keystrokes.
Premium Mechanical Switch Structure
Every detail of the Keychron Apex Mechanical Switch is carefully designed to provide near-perfect consistency and smoothness with every press. It comes in red, brown, and banana. These custom switches are available in linear and tactile options.
The Keychron Apex Mechanical Banana switch provides earlier tactile bumps and stronger tactile feedback than a regular brown switch. It features a spring to provide a stronger return and a more consistent feel.
Factory Pre-lubed
The Keychron Apex Mechanical Switches are factory pre-lubed, reducing spring noise and minimizing stem wobble. If you’d like to enjoy silky-smooth keystrokes and a more natural typing feel, the Keychron Apex Mechanical Switches are an excellent choice.
Consistent Keystrokes
Built with a transparent cover and a dust-proof walled stem, the Keychron Apex Mechanical Switch helps deliver stable, smooth, and consistent keystrokes on every press.
Softer Backlight Effect
Equipped with a transparent cover, the Keychron Apex Mechanical Switch helps distribute LED backlighting more evenly across the keyboard. This ensures a smoother, more vibrant, and visually pleasing RGB glow.
