Tried googling that? There are some keyboards matching these unspecific criteria.

I got myself a Keychron K1 Pro. It's a TKL with all the other things you're looking for.

Yes. I did try googling that. All I can find for keychron are either low profile or full size.

Keychron K6 is 60%, hot-swap, RGB, wireless, VIA compatible, ISO.

You’re looking for Keychron K2 Pro

[-] Bangs42@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

That's my daily. I like it enough that I bought a case and pack it when I travel for work.

Looks like the Q1 Pro also fits the bill. What are your thoughts on pros and cons between the two?

[-] towerful@programming.dev 2 points 8 months ago

The Q series used to be wired only. The new Q Pro series are wireless.

I use a Q6 at home and love it. I bought a k12 for work, and while its great its much noisier than the Q.
So im currently using a wired Filco at work. Which is nice, and quieter than the k12 (even tho both have silent reds).

I havent used Keychron wirelessly, so cant comment.
And I had to update the firmware to be able to use VIA, which involved a program and some scary messages. But it was straightforward.

If you have the budget for a Q Pro, then go for it. I love my Q, so I doubt you will regret it

Yes Q1 fits the bill as well. Pro of the Q1 is metal chassis. Con is wired only, no Bluetooth. I have the Original K2 v1 and I it’s still my daily driver.

Keychain V1 (75%) Max. Really enjoying the Jupiter Banana switches. Best sounding keyboard I own even over my Q6 with Box Whites. Both Bluetooth and 2.4 ghz. Also V2 Max (65%) and V3 Max (80%) too. www.keychron.com/products/keychron-v1-max-qmk-via-wireless-custom-mechanical-keyboard

It's almost perfect, except I really want ISO. I tried the Mars switches, and I'm not a huge fan. So far my favorite are the Redragon Bullet-QT Lime. I even just received some Zeal Zilent V2 78gs today, and they're a close second, but I still like the Limes better!

Keychron has ISO variant of nearly all their boards. Go for either V or Q series boards. Avoid K. Also screw RGB.

Check out keychrons q series boards.

Keychron V1 if you're willing to compromise on wireless for a bargain.

Keychron K3 Max

Unfortunately I don't want low profile
