Suitable For All Devices

Offers a Mac layout while still being compatible with Windows, the K8 Pro is one of the few on the market that has the same multimedia and function key functions as Apple keyboards for Mac users, but with more tactile feedback.

You can even configure different keymaps for both Mac and Windows devices. While VIA software is compatible with macOS, Windows, and Linux. Includes keycaps for both macOS and Windows (4 keycaps for each) to allow you to switch between operating systems with ease.

Hot-swappable (Optional)

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.
Every detail matters for a personalized typing experience, that’s why we give you the power. You can hot-swap every switch on the K8 Pro with almost all of the 3pin and 5pin MX style mechanical switches on the market (including Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Panda, etc.) without soldering. You can customize your own typing experience in seconds.

The Barebone version (without switch and keycap) is also available at your choice.

Screw-In PCB Stabilizers

Even small part matters for your fingertip feel. We’ve integrated the PCB-mounted screw-in stabilizers for a smoother typing experience with less wobbliness on the big keys such as space bar, shift, enter, and delete. The Keychron K8 Pro also supports third-party screw-in PCB stabilizers.

*Stabilizers of the non-hot-swappable versions are mounted on the plate.

Pre-lubed Gateron G Pro Switch

By optimizing the switch mold, the G Pro switch wobbles less than a standard mechanical switch and feels smoother on each hit. Plus, the factory pre-lubed process on all the G Pro switches (exclude the clicky ones), no doubt this will ensure the best smoothness at your fingertips when typing.

OSA Profile Double-shot PBT Keycaps

Comes with more than 22 types of RGB backlight settings as well as a static white backlight option. You can further fine-tune the RGB hue, saturation, brightness, effect speed with ease.

Favorite keyboard I've ever typed on

Words cannot describe how stoked I am about this keyboard. It wasn't originally my first pick, but I am SO glad the other option I had in mind didn't work out because I don't even want to imagine not owning this keyboard. The weight is great, the quality, the feel, the sound, the lights.. EVERYTHING has exceeded my expectations. My original plan was to change the switches and keycaps, but I am so in love that I don't even want to think about swapping them. The only single fault I can find is a small, pink smudge on one of the Windows keycaps (which isn't a big deal to me, I think I can maybe clean it off).

Thinking about ordering another K8 Pro for work. Beyond happy with my purchase. Shipping was very quick and very secure, too!

First Keychron

Have had a couple of gaming keyboards and other cheaper mechanical keyboards but none of them come close to the smooth and satisfying experience that this keyboard gives. I never really leave reviews but had to come here and share my experience. Highly recommended to everyone. For reference, I went with the red switches and the typing experience makes me want to be back in university having to write a big paper.

BEST KEYBOARD EVER

I went through few mechanical keyboards from logitech, hyperx or corsair and NONE of them was even close to the level of satisfaction thath K8 pro provides.

Best bang for your buck by far

Keychron K8 Pro (white backlight, gateron pro red)

This keyboard is fantastic for gaming. The keys are buttery smooth and so satisfying to type on. I've owned several razer, hyperx, logitech, and cooler master keyboards over the years and this K8 pro is my absolute favorite: It is very well built and sturdy (not wobbly or creaky like other boards), the materials used feel premium, the key press and response are fast and fluid, and it is cheaper than every other gaming keyboard in my closet.

5/5 stars recommend.
