Mechanical Or Optical?

K1 SE was designed to boost your productivity yet meets your desktop aesthetics perfectly.

The Banana and Mint switches comes with an early tactile bump of every downstroke like those Panda switches, that’s the main difference between the Banana/Mint and the Brown switch. More add-on switches here.

 SLIM YET DURABLE

The aircraft-grade reinforced aluminum frame as a pillar to make the K1 SE durable yet elegantly slim. A SGCC galvanized steel plate is added to the plastic bottom frame in order to strengthen the K1 SE's body structure, while still maintaining a stable wireless transmission capability of the K1 SE.

Currently my favorite keys on the market

I picked up a Q3 and a K1 SE at the same time, recognizing that they couldn't be further from one another in design.
Switches tested: KeyChron Optical Banana
Platform tested: Windows 10, via USB-C and Bluetooth
Compared against: Corsair K70 v2 Low Profile (Cherry MX Speed), KeyChron Q3, several other mechanical boards.

PRO:
-featureset. Hot swap keys, RGB backlighting, light-through keycaps.
-super low profile. Lowest of any low-profile keyboard I've used. Short keys, with short travel.
-stability! Keys don't wiggle or sag, very consistent feel from one switch to the next. Board is very rigid, no significant flex.
-weight! It's super light! this would be an excellent travel mech board, but it's an 80% layout so nearly fullsize in every way.
-Regarding the Banana switches: the feel is just delightfully different. I've likened it to the well-tuned trigger of a gun. almost zero pre-travel. Firm bump where you can tell if you press any harder, you'll actuate the switch. And then a satisfying give when you push just hard enough. Firm at the bottom of the travel, if you bottom out (which is easy to do with such a short travel).

CON:
-no configuration software. Keyboard will work for you, or won't. but there is (at time of writing) no way to reprogram the function of a given key.
-RGB modes are preset, not customizable. When using colors, they can be assigned to the entire board but not to individual keys. If you wanted to make the modifiers blue and the main keys white, that's no possible.
-proprietary key switches, hopefully they will remain available and inexpensive (so far so good! Love 'em!) but who knows where we will be in 5+ years.

Overall, I love the K1 SE. I've recommended it to friends.

IDEAS FOR FUTURE PRODUCTS:
-K1 SE with a matching touchpad beside? That way this board could be used from a couch or a bed, giving a presentation, etc. Since it's wireless, it has that freedom, but needing a mouse in addition is still a bummer. I'm picking like the Logitech K400 but using mechanical switches. I think it would rule. Maybe consider this, KeyChron? <3

Perfect keyboard

I waited a very long time for this to get back in stock, but the keyboard is totally worth it. Love everything about it. I got the optical banana switches and the typing feel is perfect. I own a set of the optical brown switches and it feels pretty close. I am a total fan of Keychron low profile especially with Mac's.

9.5/10 nearly the perfect keyboard

I love this keyboard, the best I've ever used (and I have too many mechanical keyboards).

Pros:

The typing feel of the Keychron optical mechanical switches are perfect - fast, smooth, and quiet. They don't need any silicone grease like many other mechanical switches do to feel this smooth.

The TKL layout of the K1 SE is perfect. I find the popular 75% size a bit too small where the function keys are too close to the keys you will type with resulting in some mistakes, no issues like that with the TKL. The little bit of extra size is just great for typing.

Its awesome for gaming having such quick and responsive keys.

Bluetooth 5.1 with great battery life, and USB-C connectivity all works great.

The low profile is fantastic because it doesn't hurt my wrist without a big pad like the larger mechanicals do. There never going back to full height mechanical keyboards for me.

The low profile and minimalist design looks amazing, there is no wasted space here.

Cons:

The only negative is the keycaps, which are very smooth. If they had a slight texture to them it would feel better typing and gaming. For example, if they were upgraded to a higher quality PBT material, then this would be the absolute perfect keyboard. Hopefully this can be offered as an option or to buy seperately some day.

Didn't meet my expectations

There are two major issues:
1. Low symbol visibility on keycaps. Light grey keycap plastic, semi-reflective surface, and small thin symbols make it unreadable in mid-light conditions. (Dark grey keycaps provide almost OK contrast.) The Mac keyboard is much more readable.

2. "Low Profile Gateron Mechanical (Hot-Swappable)" switches are awful. The clicky sound and feel are produced by a dedicated membrane. If you press a button gently, you can hear a click, but the press is not recognized. And vice versa: if you press multiple times in a row, you can have multiple typed symbols without the clicky sound. The overall feeling is fake and unsatisfying.

Minor issues:
1. Keycaps' sides are sharp.
2. Multiple backlight modes are useless. On/off would be much more convenient.

Otherwise a great but unfortunately raw product. Keycaps with improved contrast and proper switches would make it a dream wireless TKL low-profile keyboard.

A lot noisier than I imagined

The noise after the key bounces back is very loud. In general a lot louder than I imagined.
