I'm looking at Keychron for a keyboard. I recently replaced my Z-5500 surround speakers with a cheapo soundbar off Amazon. I'd like to get something comparable to the old Z-5500s (which were phenomenal) but I haven't found anything similar yet. And Logitech doesn't make anything in their league any more. Aside from those I haven't really looked for anything else. If I were to find a brand that reliably offered good-quality products with the features I'm looking for I would happily buy a whole set from them, but I have no problem with mixing-and-matching brands either.
Well speaking of Amazon, I actually read that Amazon Basics is a great option for low level stuff like cables, chargers, adapters, etc.
I can simultaneously confirm Keychron makes a solid keyboard while also saying their shit. I have 1 White LED one that works perfectly. I have a RGB one that is in theory identical but it constantly drops Bluetooth connection, and constantly reppppppppppeats keys.
Cheaper than Logitech - that is for sure. Neither has any customer support.
I have updated the Firmware on both to no effect.
Might be similar issue with mine. It usually has some issues with dropping bluetooth connection and repeating keys when the battery is not full. My solution is to disconnect the battery and use it as a wired keyboard.
Keychron hardware is solid and I have no complain in the typing department. In fact, having hot-swappable switch is very useful for extending the life of the keyboard as you can easily replace broken switches instead of replacing the whole keyboard (I already need to replace my W switch after a year). My only gripe is the shitty firmware, but I have an older model so I can't say if the latest model still have shitty firmware.
