Keychron Low-profile optical switches for the K3 keyboard (90 pcs) - Red
Product description of Keychron Low-profile optical switches for the K3 keyboard (90 pcs) - Red
An ode to Keychron low-profile switches
Show-offs
What show-offs at Keychron. A mechanical keyboard with low-profile keys is already special, and then they also make them hot-swappable... Well, let's not complain and make grateful use of them. Thanks, Keychron!
Why the low-profile Optical switches?
With Keychron's separately available switches, you can completely customise your keyboard. For example, the red and white keys are popular among gamers, who like to have them in their WASD keys. The blue and orange keys are especially suitable if typing is your primary activity. An overview of all keys can be found here.
What makes low-profile switches so good?
The mechanical low-profile switches last longer than regular low-profile keys. The feedback is better, and they are hot-swappable. Furthermore, the low-profile switches provide a keyboard that is both low-profile and mechanical.
Get the most out of this product
The keyboard for which these switches were developed is ergonomically designed. The keyboard has a compact size, the keys are easy to press, and it features a row of shortcut keys to minimise mouse usage. Find more information here about the K3.
Don't miss this either
You can order the switches along with the K3 keyboard at the top right of the product page. If you order the Keychron switches and keyboard as a set, you'll receive an attractive discount on the switches!
