“The keyboard is great, but the 2.4 ghz connection did not work out of the box. FW had to be upgraded, but so far this is the only thing I can complain about.”
“Im glad to have the via qmk firmware but the keycaps look all washed out and illegible. You can hardly see the letters. Had to buy extra keycaps from Keychron. RGM light effects are confusing too. Very little differnce between the light effects. Dont trust…”

“I am loving this kb, the rapid trigger is solid and the sound is surprisingly great for linear switches. Finally, I can jiggle peek correctly all the time without my kb holding me off. The keyboard looks and feels great!”
