The Keychron C1 Pro 8K mechanical keyboard looks exactly like the one that came with my family computer back in the 2000s. But don’t worry, it performs like one of the best mechanical keyboards on the market. It feels incredibly nostalgic to type on, but with RGB backlighting, strong ergonomics and some hefty gaming performance, it adds its own modern twist.
It may be wired only, and the Keychron Super switches proved a little tricky to remove in testing, but everything else is ideal. This is the most comfortable I’ve ever been while typing. The typing angle is adjustable with the board’s retractable feet, and the OSA profile keycaps make for an effortless typing experience, so I was typing faster and easier than ever. It’s lightweight, too, thanks to its ABS case and wired-only design (meaning no battery), for easy positioning on your desk.
