Keyboard Review
This is a review of the KeyChron K2 keyboard that I have been using for the last year and a half or so. I had originally purchased the keyboard due to its small size and ability to connect via bluetooth. After using the keyboard for a while, I have ended up purchasing a second KeyChron keyboard to use for both work and home.
Pros
There are some pretty nice feature of this keyboard that makes it my go-to for work and play.
- Small form factor
- Arrow keys
- 3 bluetooth connections and one wired connection
- Switch for Mac / Windows layout
- Switch for bluetooth / wired connections
- RGB lighting (on some models)
- Multiple switch options
- Lots of color options and pattern to chose from
Cons
- Lack of number pad (obviously)
- Default keys feel a bit cheap
- No insert key?
- FN keys work differently between different computers (might be a personal issues)
Would I recommend?
Absolutely - this keyboard is fantastic. I think it really hits that “dimishing returns” point on the cost / benefit curve. That is, you could spend a lot more money and get only a marginally better keyboard. As a first keyboard, I’ve found this to be very good and would recommend for someone interested in getting into mechanical keyboards without breaking the bank.
