Keychron C2 Full Size 104 Keys Wired Mechanical Gaming Keyboard for Mac Layout with Gateron G Pro Red

Easily the best keyboard I've ever owned. Comfortable, reliable, and it gives me all the mechanical keyboard sensations I was hoping for. Read more

I first got the V6 full sized keyboard. Great quality keyboard. Only issue was the backlight was not a backlight for keys. Searching for a full sized keyboard with backlit keys, I found the C2. It is definitly lightly and does not feel as high quality as the V6. Nevertheless they key are backlit. The white keys are great, the black keys are dim and barely readable. My suggestion is either fix the issue with the black key caps or if you cant, make them all white so they are readable. Even though the keys are the same as the V6, using them is not quite the same feel. Please make a V6 version with true backlit keys! Read more

I have the nicer, hot-swappable RGB K10 model for home, and I wanted something similar for work but without all the bells and whistles. The Gateron Pro Brown switches are smooth and solid without being too loud. Keycaps have are textured but not rough (K10 keycaps are super smooth; I almost prefer this). The white backlight is nice, for dimmer work areas without adding RGB cost, and I never actually move my keyboard around, so unless you actually intend the keyboard to be mobile, the C series (which is wired only; USB-C) is perfectly fine and saves you some $$. Overall, while there are plenty of good mechanical keyboards, including some nicer Keychrons, I'm not sure there's a better choice for a basic, high-quality fullsize. Read more

This keyboard is very good quality, my first mechanical keyboard like this, glad that it is a Mac layout, and the color scheme is great with the black/white/orange keys. The Gateron Red switches are very smooth, and if you don't type overly loud, it's pretty quiet. I bought this specifically because it was wired (detachable USB-C cable with a USB-A adapter), so that it frees up one of the USB-C ports on my laptop (2020 M1 Macbook Pro). Biggest complaint on this—the box and the description here on Amazon mention that it comes with a key puller and an extra set of Windows keys for Windows layout. Not sure of others' experience, but mine did not come with a key puller, nor did it include the extra Windows keys. I don't need the Windows keys, but that's basically false advertising. I would have liked to use the key puller, in case I decide to get an different set of keycaps from Keychron later. The actual box for the keyboard is not sealed, and I saw another review where they did receive the key puller but not the extra Windows keys. Perhaps someone at Keychron is pulling parts from boxes and not checking to make sure each package ships with the correct parts? Read more

A competent keyboard with a few minor quirks. The brown switch keyboard preforms like other brown keys I have used. I use it in the wired windows mode. There are 8 key set for Mac and window, esc along with a key cap puller. It also comes with a cloth braided USB C-Am cable. Quirks: It can only wake from sleep or monitor off with 3/4 of the keys. Not spacebar. The NumLock light remains on in sleep (Bios dependent?, ErP?). The function key labels (F1, F2 ..) are not well lighted due to the led at the top of the switch. I recommend SharpKey app to remap the keys. (not all keys) It uses the windows registry method so no macros or shift-X stuff. I always switch CapLock and Ctrl (due to my Unix days). It has 18 light pattern to choose from but are not described in the manual: These are my names with KP=key press. 0- off, light key with KP; 1- All on, temp off with KP; 2-Moving sine wave; 3-Off, explode outward from KP; 4- off, horizontal explode from KP; 5-off, Vertical wave with KP; 6- all on; 7- slow sec fade in/out; 8- off, ring with KP; 9- Fade in/out wave, 1 sec; 10- Fade In/Out horizontal wave, top to bottom; 11- Fade in/out circular wave; 12- random key light then fade away; 13- fade in/out vertical wave right->left;14- quick key blink (random?) ; 15- traveling wave left->right top-> bottom; 16- diagonal quick wave bottom left to top right; 17- fade in/out sloshing water Read more

The Gateron G Pro Browns feel great! While the tactile bump isn’t as pronounced as some other browns (like Cherry MX), I’ve actually been typing noticeably faster on them as a result. The keycaps are high quality, and it works flawlessly on both Mac and Windows. For the price, it’s a fantastic deal. Read more

Well constructed, easy to customize config and straightforward connection/setup. Highly recommend! The key sound is not too loud, but the tactile feel of the brown switches is essential. Overall great product Read more

Purchased this keyboard in 'like new condition', but it arrived very dirty and clearly used. I was able to tear it down, remove key caps and clean it so considering the price I'm not too unhappy, but I did notify seller (Keycron) there is obviously a disconnect in actual condition and listing condition. Additionally, it arrived by itself, and was missing all additional pieces (Windows key caps, USB cord, etc.) to which customer service was very responsive and sent me all missing pieces. Saw some reviews stating their customer service was poor, however in my experience they always get back to you very quickly and gave no pushback in providing me the missing items once I confirmed my order with them. In the end, keyboard looks great, no damage, works well and I was made whole. Read more
