Keychron K8 Pro - The Best of Both Worlds
The K8 Pro is the world's first wireless, programmable QMK/VIA keyboard, paving the way for a new era of mechanical keyboards. It handles all keys and macro commands via VIA, includes keycaps for Windows and macOS, and swaps with any MX mechanical switch in no time. Together with our signature features and improved typing sound, the K8 Pro takes the typing experience to a whole new level with endless possibilities.
Wireless & Wired
An excellent solution for multitasking. You can wirelessly connect the K8 Pro to up to 3 devices via its stable Broadcom Bluetooth 5.1 for seamless multitasking with your laptop, phone, and tablet. Quickly switch between devices. It is fully compatible with both Mac and Windows. A reliable wired USB Type-C port is also available if you need it.
Program the K8 Pro with QMK & VIA
QMK/VIA means literally endless possibilities for a fluid workflow. Thanks to the Keychron team of engineers, it's the first time in history that a wireless, mechanical keyboard offers these kinds of features. Simply connect the K8 Pro to your device with a cable and drag and drop your favorite keys or macro commands to remap any key on any system (macOS, Windows, or Linux). It has never been so intuitive and flexible to personalize your own keyboard layout. An all-new, low-power Arm Cortex-M4 32-bit STM32L432 MCU, which is powerful and equipped with 128K flash, offers more flexibility for developers.
Improved typing experience
The K8 Pro has been completely redesigned and redesigned to improve the typing experience. The addition of sound-absorbing foam, thick silicone cushioning at the bottom, and steel plate provide responsive feedback and a quiet typing sound, while the extra weight adds stability when the K8 Pro is on the desk.
Suitable for all devices
The K8 Pro offers a Mac layout while still being compatible with Windows. It's one of the few keyboards on the market that has the same multimedia and function key capabilities as Apple's keyboards for Mac users, but with better tactile feedback. You can even configure different key bindings for Mac and Windows devices. The VIA software is compatible with macOS, Windows, and Linux. Includes keycaps for macOS and Windows (4 each) so you can easily switch between operating systems.
Hot-swappable
Every detail is important for an individual typing experience, which is why we give you the opportunity to do so. You can hot-swap out any switch on the K8 Pro for almost any MX-style 3-pin and 5-pin mechanical switches on the market (including Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Panda, etc.) without the need for soldering. You can customize your own typing experience in a matter of seconds.
Screw-in PCB Stabilizers
Even small parts are important for your dexterity. We've included screw-down stabilizers on the PCB that allow for smoother typing with less wobble on the large keys like the spacebar, shift, enter and delete key. You can even customize them with alternative stabilizers like Cherry or Durock.
Factory pre-lubricated Gateron G Pro switch
The K8 Pro is equipped with the unique OSA (OEM Spherical Angle Profile) profile and translucent ABS keycaps, which provide a more comfortable fingertip feel and excellent oil resistance for long-term use.
South-facing RGB lighting
The south-facing RGB lighting is designed to better illuminate the keyboard's backlight from the user's point of view. The south-facing RGB lighting also doesn't bother when the user installs alternate keycaps with a cherry profile on their keyboard. The keyboard has 22 different RGB backlight settings, as well as a static white backlight option. You can easily fine-tune the RGB hue, saturation, brightness, and effect speed.
Ergonomic support
Three levels of adjustable typing angle (3.5, 7.5 and 10.5 degrees), a sloped lower frame, and curved OSA profile keycaps provide long-lasting ergonomic support for your wrist.
