An Epic Core Inside

A powerful ultra-low-power ARM architecture MCU equipped with 128K Flash will provide more flexibility for developers. The polling rate is 1000 Hz on wired mode right out of the box, which makes the latency hardly noticeable even in competitive games.

Hot-swappable Option

We also provide a hot-swappable version for your choice, which means you can customize your typing experience without soldering, pop them in and it's done.

We all have our unique typing preferences, that’s why we are offering hot-swappable option on the K5 Pro, so you can easily hot-swap every low-profile Gateron mechanical switch in a few seconds to customize the typing experience without soldering.

*The K5 Pro is currently compatible with Gateron low-profile mechanical switches only, as QMK does NOT support low-profile optical switches.

5 Month Review - Excellent

I use this keyboard in my audio studio and for writing. The sleek, compact design fits in perfectly. It feels great typing and looks great.
Customizing it with VIA is great fun and allows for some Belgian accents. The button I love the most on this keyboard is the screenshot button. Just press and drag over anything.
I'm using the brown buttons, they make for an excellent typing experience. My words just float to the screen.
The technical design is very mature and clever. No unnecessary features that annoy you after a while, or background-running software. Lovely.

6 months Review - Exceptional

Best keyboard for software engineers. I really like it. Everything is good about this keyboard. Its sleek design, customizable features, and exceptional typing experience make it a standout choice for anyone in search of a high-quality, compact mechanical keyboard. I chose the brown switches for their tactile feedback. You cannot go wrong with this keyboard esp if you are getting one for your office.

4-Months Review - Hot Swappable Browns

I don't have a single bad thing to say about the keyboard after 5-months of daily use. I was worried about switching to a low-profile as I wasn't sure if I would like it, but now I can type for 3-4x longer before feeling fatigued so I bet this will be beneficial for long-term ergonomics.

Kudos.

Great keyboard - love everything about it.

I ordered the k5 pro custom with gateron browns, non hot swapable. This is my first mechanical keyboard. I am switching from the full sized apple keyboard (black) after 5 years of daily and heavy use.

I was looking for a low profile keyboard to somewhat mimic the low profile of the Mac keyboard.

All I can say is wow. What a great keyboard. The k5 is better than I expected and a spectacular productivity tool. Day 1 my typing is faster, but it does take a higher focus as my fingers are getting used to the variances in travel across and into the keyboard.

My one awkward complaint is the distance between the apple/command and the z key to undo. I’ll get used to it but just a heads up that may be something for anyone transitioning from an apple keyboard.

Slightly less impactful is the out of the box issue with VIA. The software won’t recognize the board. That said…

I seriously love this keyboard with the browns and don’t mind they were out of stock on the hot swapable.

Very Happy

I am moving from a Keychron wired keyboard and can't be happier to move to the K5 Pro!

The brown keys are satisfying to use, and I am pleased with the build quality. The key caps are also very lovely to use.
