Pros & Cons
Pros
The version that i got has keychron's brown optical switches and upgraded pbt keycaps. Brown switch configuration lends a significantly quiet yet tactile typing experience.
The keyboard is sleek and great in transporting and carrying around. The font is great, the heft, the features is amazing!
I heavily use this for office work and am a heavy typer. Its look is understated and professional without screaming 'gaming keyboard' thanks to its low profile nature, it is much lower than the regular keyboard which your wrist can rest on the desk na... Read More
Multi-device bluetooth connectivity is a standout feature. You can pair it with more devices seamlessly and easily.
Cons
The box literally came opened and the components inside were not neatly packed. The most unpleasant sound is the pin from the light springs. These things are a pit. Better of with a no name 20$ keyboard.
Only the top half of the keys are backlit. The brightness of the keycaps on the v1 were significantly dimmer. The battery barely last 2 days even with backlit off.

Price
Glad i did, at half the price this is a vastly superior keyboard.
Yes, the keycaps can be replaced -- at considerable expense.
I would easily recommend this, and if this isn't your cup of tea, go check out a numphy air 75 for $130 usd.
Packaging/appearance
But the box was not sealed as sold by the company.
Competitiveness
This keyboard is more than 50% cheaper than the comparable logitech and just as well made.
I bought this keyboard on prime day, at ~$70 is hard to beat given there is no competitors at this price (nuphy air 75 cost ~$1... Read More
At $70, as a low profile hot swappable mech keyboard, it has no competitors.
It would be much better use combo key to enable backlight, almost all other brands are doing that.

I really didnt like the default abs keycaps because i got used to pbt keycaps from my razer huntsman mini
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The main problems as others have mentioned are the key layout of the backlight switch and the poor battery life
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
If you get this keyboard be prepared to be hitting the backlight key instead of delete when youre typing
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Also im using the keyboard wired rather than with bluetooth because 12 day battery life is just unacceptable
