“I really like this keyboard, particularly due to its ISO PT layout. For the next iteration, I suggest using a higher-quality plastic, as the keycaps feel a bit cheap. I would easily pay 20/30 EUR more if the keyboard felt more premium.”

“Second Keyboard I buy from Keychron! I live in El Salvador and it arrived on time and perfectly. Extremely comfortable, outstanding switches. Best keyboard I've had in my life.”
