Praise
“Neither big legs nor small legs. No legs at all 🤣 For me, this is not what I've expected from keychron, because every keyboard has legs.”
YurkoVerified buyer· via Keychron
Critique
“I love this thing. I wish there were these changes: Cable mode was switch in position closest to the outer edge of keyboard. Extra usb-c which is another port, I'd like to plug my 2fa device in there. Sort out why the programmer doesn't work under arch linux…”

Praise
“I like the heavy feel. The extra surface area is welcome too; suspected I wouldn't miss the ten key. The right arrow key seems to skip at times, as if I pressed it twice, but maybe it's a fault of my own.”
Nathan H.Verified buyer· via Divinikey
Critique
“I recently purchased the Luminkey 75 v2 through Divinikey. The keyboard itself feels premium, heavy, and well-built. However, since this was drop-shipped directly from the manufacturer, the factory unboxing experience was totally ruined by a bizarre packaging…”
