Mac Mechanical Keyboard

[ihsus]

Hi!

 

Do you guys know of any good alternative to keychron keyboards for mac? The keychron ones are just too thick and tall for me to comfortably type on them. I struggle to find a good keyboard other than keychron which meets this criteria:

• bluetooth
• mechanical
• preferably brown switches
• TKL or other compact form factor

Thank you for any suggestions.

I'm not really sure what you mean by "too thick and tall." Only other one I know of that fits all your criteria is this one; but if a Keychron is too tall, I don't imagine it would work for you. Have you tried changing keycaps?

There is also a Keychron K1 for pre-order that is "thin" if that's what you're referring to?

don't think it's mechanical, scissor switches are still a kind of membrane keyboard.

 

From Wikipedia 

"A special case of the computer keyboard dome-switch is the scissor-switch. The keys are attached to the keyboard via two plastic pieces that interlock in a "scissor"-like fashion, and snap to the keyboard and the key. It still uses rubber domes, but a special plastic 'scissors' mechanism links the keycap to a plunger that depresses the rubber dome with a much shorter travel than the typical rubber dome keyboard"

I am basically looking for the best typing experience for my macbook since I spend most of my time typing. I have a good experience with my corsair K70 (cherry mx red) on my windows gaming setup but and im looking for something similar for mac but with some kind of a tactile feedback. I found keychron k2 and thought it was a perfect match but its so tall that its uncomfortable to type on.
