Keychron, the premium keyboard manufacturer, launched its newest keyboard, the 'Keychron K6 Pro,' via a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. This keyboard is poised as an all-purpose multitasking keyboard that can simultaneously connect to up to three devices at a time. On top of this, these devices do not need to be from the same ecosystem, meaning a user can connect to a mobile phone, Apple laptop, and desktop PC at the same time.
The keyboard allows users to tab between devices, choosing which one is active at each time, providing a smooth typing experience to dedicated multitaskers. As for the build style of the keyboard itself, the Keychron K6 features a 65% layout with ergonomic OSA PBT keycaps and smooth PCB stabilizers. This provides a premium typing experience to customers at an affordable price.
Lastly, as with many of Keychron's keyboards, the K6 Pro is hot-swappable, allowing users to change the keycaps and switches as they please, and is also QMK/VIA compatible, allowing users to change the lighting and functionality of the board.
