Settle in

Normally, we use this piece of text to write something fun and light-hearted about a product. However, I want to use it now to make sure you settle in with a cup of coffee or tea before you start reading, because there's quite a bit to tell about the K8. Are you seated? Perhaps a biscuit too? Let's go!

Why the Keychron K8 keyboard?

Very complete

Nicely retro: that's the K8 non-backlight. The K8 gives you all the keys and functions you need in a compact 80% format. This means that a numeric keypad is missing, for ergonomic reasons, but it does have hotkeys that can be used by pressing combination keys. This layout is highly sought after for maximum productivity and is the favourite size for gamers.

The connectivity of the K8 is fantastic. Via Bluetooth, you can wirelessly connect up to three devices to the keyboard simultaneously. Using the toggle button, you can switch between your connected devices in a flash. For example, one moment you might be working on your laptop, and the next you can quickly type a WhatsApp message about dinner. A fourth device can be connected with a cable (USB). Of course, connecting a single device and using the USB cable for that is also possible.
