I've been looking for a slim TKL mechanical keyboard for a long time. I've read about the Keychron products, but hesitated to pull the trigger because other brands had more reviews with similar ratings. I shouldn't have and hope my review will help others who are relying on the number of reviews to make an informed decision.
This little beauty is the best slim TKL mechanical keyboard I've tried by a long shot! The form factor is perfect, quality is great (especially given the very reasonable price) and it feels and works great! I might end up buying one or two more, one for the office and the other just so I have a replacement for when this one wears out. I have not tried using it in wireless mode or using it with a Mac. The default key configuration is for Mac, but there are spare key caps to replace Mac specific keys with Win (which I promptly did :) ). It is small enough to leave plenty of space on your desk, yet heavy enough to not move about when you type. The keyboard comes with brown mechanical switches, which are smooth and quiet enough to not annoy people sitting around you.
All keys are mapped correctly to their designated functions. I'm actually using it with a Chrome book, was super impressed that all the keys do what they said they would, even the screenshot button.
All in all, I've very happy with my purchase - great product Keychron!

I bought this for travel but really I may use it all the time.
The price, basically if it was about two times the price it is, I'd still pay it.
It appears to me much better made than, say, steel series keyboards at 3x the price. (And steel series keyboards flake out after a year.)
As everyone has said (a) it feels rock, rock, rock solid, strong and heavy (b) it's super-low profile (c) the connectivity is perfect (I normally only go for wired, so I'm very critical of anything bluetooth) (d) every product feature is perfectly thought out.
My only SUGGESTIONS for the product team. Just add a sticker, or white printing, on the rear of the keyboard, with the two commands one needs to know to start it up, etc. (I just grabbed a "white paint pen" and wrote the commands on the back.)
Secondly, may I suggest selling some sort of "travel guard" which would be a very strong kind of clip- or slide- on guard which goes over the keys, for when you throw it in your carry-on luggage. (Imagine something that looks like an aerox mouse, with a drilled surface.)
Essentially, this is a perfect product. I chose the "most quiet, fastest, zero click" blue switches and they're perfect. I am a programmer and writer so I type billions of words and command-arrow type clicks a day.
I've added two "size comparison to typical objects and other overpriced keyboards", hope it helps someone
