Keychron M6 Wireless Mouse

Please make a left handed version of this mouse!

This is my first mouse in this shape. I considered getting a MX Master, but the price point on the M6 was way more attractive, and I am already using a Keychron keyboard. I dig the shape and wish I migrated to it long ago.

The software isn't super intuitive, but I managed to configure the mouse how I wanted. In some ways, it's better than the Logitech G software. It's not nearly as intrusive, for one thing.

The mouse is very responsive. I guess this has to do with the polling rate. I don't know the purpose of being able to change the polling rate and this is the first mouse I've had that allows this. But I believe it's the highest I've had, which likely lends to its responsiveness.

The skates are great. Better than my old Logitech gaming mouse. Maybe it's the light weight contributing, but it's so easy to move on the mousepad. Sometimes detrimentally so. I'm learning to adjust.

My Keychron keyboard has tactile switches because I don't like noisy keyboards. This mouse is a tad more clicky than I prefer, but not horribly so. However, the scroll wheel is the loudest I've had in a very long time. The indentations are sharp with a slight rattle. The hollow space in the mouse seems to help keep it loud as well, there doesn't seem to be anything done to try to dampen it. Switching the wheel to smooth quietens it, sure, but it's also freewheeling, which is not preferred.

Overall, I love the mouse. I wish it was quieter, but I'll deal.

It has been extremely difficult to find a good mouse with infinity scroll, good polling rate and low weight that is not Logitech. I have to say, Kechron knocked it out of the park with the release of the M6 mouse. Firstly, shipping to California only took 3 days after I ordered it. The packaging is high quality, and it comes with a very nice charging cable and two dongles (Usb-c and Usb-a) which I have never seen before. Overall, the mouse shape is very similar to Logitech MX3S, with a high palm peak and a thumb rest. It is narrower and significantly lighter than MX3S. I would say the shape could be slightly wider and I think the palm peak can be slightly lower. Also, most people seem to complain about the plastic quality, I don't think it's too bad, but I think it can be better. Overall, the build quality is quite good. The sensor seems great and the pairing was easy. I think the pricing is just right too. If they release a Version 2 with improvements to shape and build quality, I would be first to reorder.

I've been using the mouse for works, that is 8-10 hours a day with high sen. The mouse is lightweight and very easy to move around, main clicks and side buttons are great (side buttons are very crispy with no pre or post travel despite the small size), the side scroll is great, the main scroll is a bit loose but understandable given its function. Been a while since a lightweight mouse with good sensor and tilt scroll is released.

However what I dislike this mouse, and eventually made me stop using it for work, is the shape of the left wall where your thumb curves into the thumb rest. The area that makes contact with the base of the thumb is a very sharp curve (instead of the deep curve on the MX Master's left side), this creates great stress on the thumb basal joint - when lifting the mouse of pressing the side buttons/using the side scroll, this joint is pressed against the mouse. For reference I have 19x9.5cm hands and use side buttons a lot.

Another cons is that grip tapes for Keychron mice don't exists, I'd gladly buy them if Keychron sell them for a few bucks.

I used to buy mice for max 20USD (great was Gigabyte M6800) but now I bought a new NB and I wanted to get rid of cables. BT mouse was the only option, but I had bad experiences with old BT mice - laggy, sleepy, discharged AAA batteries. Then I found following mouse-test where BT latency was tested:

Keychron was one of the best. I also saw some videos and decided to try it.

Material is great, just a simple black plastic. Buttons seem to click nicely without any cracking.
For some of you the second wheel might be too much in the center of the mouse. I would push it forward if I could.

The main wheel seems to be louder, just like the wheel-mode-switch next to it. But it is a personal opinion.
So far all great!

The only small thing can be that the main wheel scrolls just by 1px or not at all when you rotate it only by 1 step in some applications. Maybe I will discover the reason. I am not using any application to controll my mouse.

Generally: I have no problems with the mouse, works nicely, precisely, is light with cool design. Great also for Macbook.
