“I don't like writing reviews but I do like reading them lol. What I am trying to say is that don't sleep in this keyboard. I even liked it more than my Lemokey L3. I got the one with the side printed keys and banana switches. This is my 3rd keychron keyboard.”

“"This keyboard is heavier than a gaming laptop, which makes it sturdy and stable. Typing on it feels smooth and effortless, especially with the red switches, which I'm very satisfied with. The delivery time to Thailand was surprisingly quick."”

“The keys feel smooth and easy as you type. It's probably the best keyboard I've used. I've had a number of mechanical keyboards, but, none of them can compare to the v5 max. The feel of the thing while typing, is hard to not constantly repeat.”
