Keychron V1 75% Wired Mechanical Keyboard, QMK/VIA Programmable, Hot-swappable Red Switches, Compatible with Mac Windows Linux - Carbon Black
Users say:
This keyboard is a great value for the price, with great switches, keycaps, and a solid board. It is easy to mod and has a good layout, but the space bar can be a bit loud and the sound quality is not great. It is a good keyboard for those who need a good 75% that you can throw some switches in and be done with. It is also lightweight and has VIA support, per key RGB.
81 Keys Mechanical Keyboard: The V1 is a fully customizable mechanical keyboard ready for any situation. Its a great option to introduce you to the custom keyboard world while every component can be easily assembled.

81 Keys Mechanical Keyboard: The V1 is a fully customizable mechanical keyboard ready for any situation. Its a great option to introduce you to the custom keyboard world while every component can be easily assembled. With its compact 75% layout, acoustic silicone pad, the V1 is designed for ultra typing comfort and boost productivity. Fully Customizable From the Inside Out: To build a fully customizable keyboard, we designed every component easily assembled, including keycaps, switches, gasket, plate, and case foam if you want. With QMK and VIA support, you can easily program and remap each key on the keyboard. The open-source firmware means endless possibilities for keyboard layouts, shortcuts, backlight effects, and more. Hot-swappable Support: With the pre-lubed mechanical linear red switch provides unrivaled tactile responsiveness with up to 50 million keystroke lifespan. You can also hot-swap the V1 with almost all of the 3pin and 5pin MX mechanical switches on the market (including Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Panda, etc.) without soldering required. The PCB-mounted screw-in stabilizer for "big keys" such as space bar, shift, enter, and delete are designed for less wobbliness and smooth performance. Compatible with both macOS & Windows Systems: Built with the Mac users experience in mind while still retaining compatibility for Windows devices, the Keychron V1 comes with a system toggle and an additional set of customized keycaps for both Windows and macOS systems. You can now save two different layouts on the keyboard. Double-shot PBT Keycaps & South-facing Backlight: The V1 comes with our unique OSA profile and double-shot PBT keycaps that aim to provide a more comfortable and subtle fingertip feel with excellent oil resistance for long-term use. The south-facing RGB is designed to better illuminate the keyboard backlight from the typists angle and free from interference when the user installs Cherry-profile alternative keycaps on the V1.
