In China, it has been selected as the manufacturer of mechanical keyboards made by Jingdong. If you are not familiar with Keychron, you can trust Dongge's vision!

Excellent feel, hot-swappable keycaps and key switches, perfectly compatible with Windows and Mac, it is a very practical gift that will not fall into dust!

Maybe TA is working hard for a common ideal. Although he has been in love with keychron for a long time, he still suffers from the torture of the old keyboard. We should help TA realize his wish!

Exaggerated forms often make people lose the real existence, but Keychron is different, it uses elegant black and silver refined lines to outline the appearance of K4 Pro. It is a mechanical keyboard with 96% layout, and it is also a keyboard that can customize functions and bring peak input experience.

There will be more information on the back. In addition to the gray and black color matching keyboards, it also supports Win and Mac dual systems, wired and wireless dual connections, can pair three devices, has a screw-in stabilizer design, and a 4000 mAh battery. It provides up to 4 weeks of battery life, ten special effects lighting and a cushioning layer that can reduce sound and vibration.

Open the package and uncover the black sponge, we can see the quick use guide, the K4Pro wrapped in the bag, and the 3 Win replacement keys, data cable, key puller and two small tools placed in the small box next to it. There is a tip and instructions for changing the shaft under the keyboard.

The above is a family portrait, all of whom have just been introduced, so I won’t repeat them here!

Although the Keychron K4 Pro has a compact and small size, it is still quite heavy in the hand. It weighs 1273 grams, and the three-dimensional dimensions are 390.6, 139.2 and 40mm respectively.

Under the black base, the Keychron K4 Pro uses a black-and-gray button color with orange-red accents. It is calm and cute, and because of this, it is also very suitable for quiet girls.

The keyboard takes the center row of the palm as the base point, and according to the different curvatures of the fingers when using it, each row of keys is ergonomically designed. It is very comfortable to tap on it. Among the strong racing chairs.

The top of the keyboard concentrates on the TYPE-C interface, wired and wireless switch buttons, and Mac/IOS and Windows/Android mode switch buttons. The entire keyboard is fixed at the bottom with 8 Torx screws,

There are two sets of feet on the upper left and right positions, which can provide our palms with 3 different heights and inclination angles of 6-9 degrees when used together. There are 5 non-slip soft rubber pads distributed around the keyboard.

It is very stable and the position is reasonable. For many mainstream notebooks on the market, the Keychron K4 Pro can also be stacked directly on top of the original keyboard, which is very considerate!

Keychron K4 Pro provides us with two connection modes, whether we use Windows or Mac system, we can quickly match it with it.

Bluetooth connection mode

The default key position of Keychron K4 Pro is Mac mode. If you are using the Windows system, you can replace the three Apple keys with the Win version.

Whether it is Win or Mac, their Bluetooth pairing process is the same. First, according to our computer, choose Win/Android or Mac/IOS,

Then, we turn the pairing switch to BT, and then press and hold the fn+1 key for 4 seconds, and then we can find the Keychron K4 Pro in the Bluetooth pairing directory on the computer to connect. By fn+1, fn+2, fn+3, it allows the keyboard to pair 3 devices.

Keychron K4 Pro uses Bluetooth 5.1 connection, which can also make our input feel no delay, which is also very important for gamers!

wired connection mode

The wired connection mode is simpler, just switch the connection mode key to the Cable port, plug in the cable and use it. The length of the cable is about 1.2 meters, which is enough for desktop use. Unfortunately, the other end of it is a USB-A port, and those who only have a C port need another adapter.

It should be noted that if you want to customize the keyboard keys, you still need a wired connection to use the special functions through the software.

Keychron K4 Pro is a keyboard with RGB illusion lighting effects. We can turn on or off the backlight of the keyboard through fn+tab. If you choose to turn it on, you can instantly have up to 22 types Vibrant and flowing color.

We can change the backlight mode of the keyboard through fn+Q, and increase the brightness of the keyboard light through fn+W.

Use fn+S to dim the light, use fn+T to increase the speed of the light effect,

Use fn+G to slow down the flowing light and shadow. In addition, we can also use the light key in the upper right corner of the keypad to switch the backlight or switch the lighting effect.

The F1~12 keys on the top row of Keychron K4 Pro are endowed with a series of multimedia functions, which can play a corresponding role by using them in conjunction with fn. However, due to the different hardware of each computer, the adaptation will also be different.

Through the key puller, we can easily pull out the keycap. Keychron K4 Pro uses PBT two-color injection keycaps (OSA height). After fingertip mechanics design, it can provide friends with a more fitting percussion feeling.

Below is the red switch body, which should be Keychron's self-developed mechanical switch, K-Pro switch. It has an actuation force of about 45 grams and an actuation key travel of about 2mm (total key travel is 4mm).

For large key positions such as Shift, space, and enter, its PCB satellite axis design ensures smooth and stable input, and greatly reduces the sense of flesh, stuttering, and imbalance.

Because it supports hot-swapping, even if it is replaced in the future, it only needs to be easily pulled out with a shaft puller, and then inserted into a new shaft, and no welding is required, which is very suitable for DIY.

Although it has not been fully disassembled, it can be seen from the hole leaked by pulling out the key shaft that the K4 Pro also adopts a similar deconstruction as the same door, the black noise-reducing cotton interlayer under the positioning board, the PCB board and the white silicone The pad not only improves the feel, but also minimizes the noise.

Subsequent official pictures also confirmed our guess.

Through a wired connection, we can also customize the function of each function button, set the lighting, etc. in the software. What needs to be reminded friends is that LAYER 0 1 in the software corresponds to Mac, and LAYER 2 3 corresponds to Win.

Powerful functions, friends who like to toss can try it.

It has to be said that the adaptation of Keychron K4 Pro to the Mac series is perfect! In particular, the function keys are exactly the same as those of the Mac series, no additional settings are required. If your workhorse tool is a Mac, it should be your mechanical keyboard of choice.

In addition, Keychron K4 Pro also integrates a numeric keypad. Compared with the original Mac, it has a better hand feel, more convenient input, and supports macro programming.

The low-key color matching is another important reason why we chose it. Whether it is at home or in the workplace, its restrained and unassuming temperament will not reveal too much of your personality, nor will it interfere with your entered thinking.

The PBT keycap has a fine layer of frosting, which is very comfortable to the touch. And the red shaft also allows us to get better feedback every time we tap, and the rhythmic sound is also fascinating.

Two feet with different heights provide us with three stages of more ergonomic concepts. Whether it is code words or typing codes, it allows us to find a suitable wrist angle. When typing, it makes the wrist more comfortable and makes typing a kind of enjoyment.

Although it is not comparable to the membrane keyboard, the Keychron K4 Pro keyboard has become very stable after layers of shock absorption and noise reduction. At the same time, its sound is far more pleasant than other mechanical keyboards. Its loudness is moderate, even if used in an office environment, it will not attract the eyes of colleagues!

Summarize

After high-intensity use, we can feel that the keyboard of Keychron K4 Pro is accompanied by a heavy weight, which is a sincere quality. Although it is not like the aluminum version of other companies, the tapping feeling is still excellent. Compared with the K4, the larger key space also allows our little hands to fly left and right more freely. Crisp and powerful rebound, ultra-short trigger stroke, so that typing on the keyboard is no longer hard. So, back to the original question, is it appropriate to give a keyboard on Valentine's Day? I think you already have your answer!
