Enhanced Acoustic Foams
Elevate your typing with K8 Version 2 featuring advanced IXPE acoustic foam for enhanced comfort, coupled with resilient EPDM foam for superior key switch support, responsiveness, and durability. The aluminum plate provides responsive feedback and a peaceful typing sound, while added weight enhances stability.
Program with QMK & Launcher
The open-source QMK firmware means endless possibilities for key remapping, macros, shortcuts, and more. Now you can easily customize each key with the Keychron Launcher web app.
Wireless Connection
An excellent solution for multitasking. Connects the K8 Version 2 with up to 3 devices wirelessly via its stable Broadcom Bluetooth 5.2 for seamless multitasking across your laptop, phone, and tablet. Switch among them swiftly, and it’s fully compatible with both Mac and Windows.
Suitable For All Devices
Offers a Mac layout while remaining compatible with Windows. It stands out in the market by providing the same multimedia and function key as Apple keyboards for Mac users, but with enhanced tactile feedback.
Additionally, you can configure different keymaps for both Mac and Windows devices with the Keychron Launcher web app. The keyboard includes keycaps for both macOS and Windows, along with additional Esc and Enter keys, facilitating seamless switching between operating systems.
An Epic Core Inside
A powerful ARM architecture MCU equipped with 256KB Flash will provide more flexibility for developers. The polling rate is 1000 Hz on wired mode right out of the box, which makes the latency hardly noticeable even in competitive games.
Hot-Swappable (Optional)
We also provide a hot-swappable version for your choice, which means you can customize your typing experience without soldering, pop them in and it's done.
Every detail matters for a personalized typing experience, that’s why we give you the power. You can hot-swap every switch on the K8 Version 2 with almost all of the 3-pin and 5-pin MX-style mechanical switches on the market (including Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Panda, etc.) without soldering. You can customize your own typing experience in seconds.
Keychron Super Switch
Our exclusive Keychron Super switch adopts a new mold with unparalleled precision. Every switch is tested for pro-grade quality and has a lifespan of up to 50 million clicks, providing great reliability and high performance for long typing sessions. Its new light-affecting structure on its transparent top housing also ensures high light transmittance and a more consistent, brighter backlight effect.
Cherry Profile Double-shot PBT Keycaps
To further fine-tune your typing experience, the K8 Version 2 comes with Cherry profile and double-shot PBT keycaps that aim to provide a more comfortable fingertip feel with excellent oil resistance for long-term use on the timeless tenkeyless layout.
RGB Backlights
Shine-through keycaps create a brilliant backlight effect, available in both RGB and white backlight versions. The RGB version offers 22+ dynamic backlight settings, while the white backlight version features 14 unique modes. You can easily fine-tune the RGB hue, saturation, brightness, and effect speed for full customization with the Keychron Launcher web app.
Ergonomic Support
Three levels of adjustable typing angle (3.5º, 7.7º & 11º) and curved Cherry-profile keycaps are all working together to provide long-lasting ergonomic support for your wrist.
