Can anyone who has used this with mac as well as windows comment if it is really needed to toggle the win/mac switch each time ? (as that is an additional step that I would rather skip, if possible, each time I swap between windows and mac)
Is it possible to leave the switch at windows and then use MAC OS to remap the keys appropriately? Or is there more than simply remapping that the switch does?

Keep in mind one was used at the office, 8 hours a day, 3 days a week. Another 8 hours/2 days. The third/last one that I bought for home, I had only been using as a backup when my keychron was dead.
Maybe this model is better but my experience with their switches is not great.
That said, this is the best keyboard I've ever typed on so I continue to use it. 😁
Key Switches: Pro Max: Features Mint Mambo switches, which offer a unique feel and sound tailored for those seeking personalized and comfortable typing experiences. Pro SE: Equipped with custom Hi-Fi linear switches, known for their smooth and seamless pressing action, suitable for both typing and gaming. Pro: Utilizes Red linear switches, providing a stable and fluid typing feel.
Keycaps: Pro Max: Comes with MOA profile PBT keycaps, known for their durability, resistance to oil, and enhanced typing experience due to their unique design. Pro SE: Features themed keycaps with an anime girl (Eisa) design on five sides. The keycaps are made of Dye-Sub PBT, which offers a durable and pleasant touch. Pro: Standard keycaps without any special themes or patterns.
In conclusion, while the Pro Max, Pro SE, and Pro keyboards share many common features such as 98-key layout, hot-swap capability, dedicated knob control, sound absorbing pads and software support, they differentiate primarily through their key switch options and keycap material and profile. These distinctions cater to the varying needs and preferences of users.
If cost is a concern, I do recommend the AUKEY blue switch keyboards. By no means amazing, but half the price. But nothing will beat an old school IBM Model M keyboard for me. Had that thing for a good 30 years. Had a giant keyboard connector to PS2 connector to USB connector and dragged that poor thing into the Windows 10 era. RIP. You are missed (but not $100 replacement level missed).
