But for a starter, keychron is an easy no brainer option. Plus they are customizable as well. It's just the initial price of $100 vs say $50-60 on a barebones kit.

Community Reviews
Keychron boards are praised as an easy entry into mechanical keyboards, with solid fit and finish, customizable layouts, and options like full size, 96 percent, and low profile models. The K3 and other slim versions feel closest to a laptop keyboard, while brown switches are favored for a quieter, more natural tactile feel. The main cautions are Bluetooth lag and sleep behavior on some models, limited hot swap or customization on others, and switches or keycaps that can feel cheap at higher prices. A strong value pick if the layout and switch type fit your setup.
Common Questions (5)
At $100, the Q1 is described as a solid starter board but pricier than barebones kits in the $50-60 range. It is still considered a reasonable entry point if you want an easy, customizable Keychron instead of building from scratch.
Yes, the low-profile Keychron boards use shorter keycaps and shorter travel, and the K3 is described as the closest to a laptop typing feel. Brown switches are recommended for a quieter tactile feel, especially if you switch between a laptop and a desktop.
The Q1 in this deal is wired, not wireless. If you want wireless use, this thread also notes that Bluetooth on some Keychron boards can sleep quickly and take a long time to wake, so wired use avoids that delay.
Yes, the C2 is a full-size board, so it includes a 10-key numpad. That layout is the right choice if you need number entry for work or prefer a standard full-size keyboard.
Not all of them are hot-swappable. The full-size model in this thread is specifically called out as not hot-swappable, so switch changes may be limited depending on the exact version you buy.

I have a Q1 Pro (same white one being sold here) that for some reason won't take any inputs. The lights turn on and all that and I've tried to "reset" it and it still doesn't work. It was fine for a few years but then I switched to a different keyboard and then went back to the Q1 Pro and it was dead when I went back to it. Is there something I'm missing. Tried both wired and bluetooth.
The K3 offers the closest experience to a laptop keyboard, both in layout and typing feeling, and will make it easier to transition back and forth if you also type on a laptop. I second the recommendation on brown switches, they are quiet (not silent) with a nice tactile feedback.
If you don't use laptops, you may find more natural one of the standard profile options.

got it on amazon.
Tried to order the fullsize brown switches of the same model and its sold out smh. i do rememeber going thru the ordering process though so im not sure what happened.
Switches are subjective IMO... I run linear and HE for my gaming setups and tactile for work/typing.
I was initially debating between the K10 (essentially the full-size version of K8) and the K4, but I ultimately went with the K4 V3 becuase I prioritize the shine-through keycaps and QMK compatibility. I definitely echo on the Brown switch decision as it seems to be the Reddit favorite. Having always used linear switches myself, this will be my first time trying tactile, so I'm honestly not sure what to expect : P

Keychron K3, a compact 75% layout ultra-slim wireless mechanical keyboard built for peak productivity and a great tactile typing experience.
Be ready to multitask without missing a beat by connecting the K3 with up to 3 devices via the stable Broadcom Bluetooth 5.1 chipset and switch between your laptop, PC, tablet and phone seamlessly. *Keep the distance between the keyboard and the device within reasonable limits to minimize signal interference.
With a unique Mac layout, the K3 has all the necessary Mac multimedia keys while still being compatible with Windows. Extra keycaps for both Windows and Mac operating systems are included. *If it doesn't match your device exactly, you can try updating the keyboard's firmware.
The redesigned low-profile Gateron mechanical switch is 40% slimmer than conventional switches with a shorter pre-travel and total travel distance that triggers an input and feedback faster than conventional/normal-profile mechanical switches.
Together with the reinforced aluminum body (plastic bottom frame) make the K3 one of the thinnest and lightweight wireless mechanical keyboards on the market. The K3 also comes with a floating keycap design with a charming white backlight with modern keycap legends to sync with your mood.
