Keychron is currently holding a sale to celebrate its birthday sixth birthday that runs until April 7. This gives you the opportunity to save up to 35% on a wide variety of products on his site, ranging from the well-known mechanical keyboards and mice to switches and other accessories. If you’re feeling a little daunted by the sheer selection of goods on sale, we’ve picked out a handful of goodies that we think are particularly worthy of your attention.
Keychron keyboards offers
All keyboards listed here can be shipped fully assembled in various combinations of color, switch type and keycap style. However, you can also have them shipped as barebones kits if you already have a favorite set of switches or keycaps that you want to transfer.
For something different from your average keyboard layout, check out the Keychron Q10 Alice Layout Keyboard, which currently retails for $194 (normally $215). The Alice layout splits a normal layout down the middle and tilts both sections inward for a more ergonomic experience. The inputs and RGB lighting for the Q10 can be easily reprogrammed using Keychron’s Chromium browser-based VIA utility. And, like all Keychron keyboards, the Q10 features a hot-swappable PCB that makes it easy to replace switches.
If you have a penchant for Alice’s ergonomic layout but would rather spend a little less, Keychron also offers a barebones kit called the Keychron V10. The V10 shares many of the same features as the Q10, but uses a translucent plastic body instead. Normally $84, you can pick up the barebones version for $75.60 during the sale.
For a more conventional layout, you can use the Keychron Q1 QMK V2 fully assembled for $161.10 instead of the usual $179. The 75 percent layout retains the directional arrows and function row of the full Q1, but omits the numeric keypad.
For a 65 percent wireless option with even fewer keys, the Keychron K6 Pro retails for $101.15 instead of $119. The compact keyboard features RGB backlighting, an aluminum body, and is compatible with PCs, Macs, and mobile devices via Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity. The smaller size gives you back some of your desk space.
Keychron Mice Deals
The black and white versions of the wired Keychron M1 Ultra-light mouse are currently on sale for $27.30 (normally $39). The mouse weighs 68 grams and is equipped with a 16K DPI sensor and RGB lighting along the sides. The M1 isn’t particularly feature-packed compared to other top gaming options from Logitech or Razer, but you’ll probably be hard-pressed to find a worthy competitor for less than $30.
