Keychron officially launched its latest transparent keyboard, the 'Keychron V4.' The V4 features the same industry-leading features that make Keychron a top competitor in the keyboard space, such as QMK and VIA compatibility, hot-swappable switches and keycaps, an easily accessible PCB, and a sturdy build quality.
What is unique about the V4, though, is that it includes an acoustic silicone pad to help dampen the sound of the mechanical keyboard while maintaining the same audio profile. Additionally, the frame of the V4 is available in transparent builds, allowing end users to look into the keyboard's internal components. This is an excellent feature, as many consumers who customize their own keyboards are proud of the internal layout they have achieved.
The Keychron V4 is available directly from Keychron in a number of configurations at a MAP of $59.00 USD.
