Custom keyboards are dropping their prices and this is our prime example.
Compared to other $130 gaming keyboards, its a welcome one.
The actual deck is built like a brick - stacked just like theKeychron Q2at a whopping 1.65kg.
Its ergonomics also borrow more from the enthusiast space than they do a gaming one.
There are no flip feet underneath either.
A 1,000Hz polling rate is plenty to see you through more competitive endeavours.
That 1,000Hz rate is available via both the wired and 2.4GHz connection, with Bluetooth being capped at 90Hz.
That speedy communication helps the P1 run at an impressively low latency compared to other custom-minded models.
The Bluetooth connection is also handy for more productivity-focused tasks.
Youve got three different connections available to you, with easy switching via the 1,2, and 3 keys.
The keyboard is also compatible with QMK/VIA tools as well.
Keychron is shipping the Lemokey P1 Pro with three different switch options should you opt for a prebuilt gear.
The brands own switches are nice and smooth, though not quite as slick asAsuss own Cherry-style clickers.
The Bananas are a strange mix of comfortingly gentle but also a little stiffer than Im used to.
Performance
Keychron knows how to make a keyboard, and its obvious.
This is the cheapest deck Ive used thats felt this good.
The sound dampening qualities of such a design also make for a particularly satisfying auditory experience.
Theres absolutely no reverb running through the case itself, and even larger keys maintain a solid depth.
Each keypress feels immediately responsive, in both typing and gaming.
Should you buy the Lemokey P1 Pro?
