- An in-depth look at the Keychron K10 mechanical keyboard for PC and Mac.
The configuration reviewed included Gateron G-Pro hot-swappable switches and, as well as looking at the keyboard overall, I demonstrate replacing some of the keys to create a customised keyboard to suit me.

Really good review. Lots of useful information. Given you asked for constructive feedback, the outro music came in a little loud and treble heavy, which after a full video of pleasant keyboard sounds and soft spoken commentary was a bit of a shock.
I was going to mention the volume of the intro/outro as well. Thanks for the video, I just ordered a K10 and am looking forward to trying it out. Very difficult to find premium, full-sized keyboards that support 3+ devices, so I was pretty jazzed when I stumbled across this one.
Noted! Thanks for the feedback. I'll bear that in mind for future videos.
@@deltics735 I will look forward to your next video where you yell loudly into the mic to match the outro volume. (I kid!)
After a while with the K10, I'm completely loving it. Great upgrade from my old Logitech MK850 set.
Excellent video, great production quality. Ending song is too loud but everything else was honestly top notch. Surprised you don't have more subscribers!
Great video very professional, detailed, and well paced! Thank you for posting!
I've gone through about a dozen videos and this is the best review of this keyboard on YT. One other was good and the rest were a waste of time.
I just received my K10 and have been using it today working from home. I absolutely love it. The feel brings back my childhood memories, using a Cherry keyboard on my parent's first PC. I am going to look at making it more silent. I already ordered a set of O-rings, but I suppose some strategically placed foam would help as well.
I found that this product is sould out on Keychron European website. Did you get it on this website?
Thank you for this great and insightful review. I was hesitant to get a keyboard with RGB backlight since I'm not a fan of lots of bright colours, but the monochromatic mode is nice. I really enjoyed the pace of the video and your professionalism. I now feel like I'm making a well-thought-out decision buying the keyboard. Liked, subscribed, looking forward to more!
You can always just turn off the rgb
after have been waiting months I came accross this review I decided to buy one. Thank you !
Glad I could help!
Bought one for my niece with swappable switches, had a fun afternoon changing out the switches and keycaps.
Nice! Which switches and keycaps did you go with? Out of interest, did you go for a varied switch setup, like I did, or just swap out the entire board?
Great video, have one of these on the way this week, excited to give it a shot as it is my first mechanical keyboard.
Excellent and informative review.
Thanks Nurgle, I appreciate your taking the time to comment!
Came across your channel looking for reviews of the k10. I have one. Great work on the review. If you plan to do any mods for the K10 like foam or lubing or tape etc I'd be interested to see your results. The k10 was a bit challenging to open up
Thanks Omar. I'm not intending any further mods at this stage, but this keyboard thing is turning into something of a rabbit hole, so who knows...! :)
Finally a video with details I do care about. Thank you. Bought the keyboard before your video anyway)) Nice mouse))
It's all controlled on the keyboard, no software
Great review. Been looking into the K10 as my next board (coming from a Womier/GamaKay K87) as it covers everything I want in a board, barring having 2.4GHz as a connection option. 3 point Bluetooth makes this a non-issue for me though. Glad to hear it's a decent board, though.
Mine comes next Tuesday I can’t wait!
Great review. Just got my K10 and love it!
Great to hear!
nice review, i got the k10 awesome keyboard
Thanks for the comment Bob, it certainly is a good board.
You have an "Ahoy" style of youtube, you have a nice accent much like he does, you are very in-depth everything. But please, your intro is very loud and clashes with your real strength; which is a relaxing professional style of review.
Great review & video production!
Thanks for the excellent video.
Wish you had more keyboard videos
So do I. :). I am working on it. Thanks for the support/encouragement.
I quite like this review and I think I'll be getting one of these down the road, but I would change or remove the channel intro, it's not as professional as your video which is quite high quality.
Thanks for the feedback Tulkas, particularly w.r.t the intro.
It's still early days for me producing such content and am well aware that the intro needs work. I'd be keen to hear what you feel should be changed or improved.
The is a great review. Nice job!
Did he hook the switch removal tool from the sides?
Suggestion for review: Best keyboard for both Mac/Win when using a KVM switch?
Great Video!
Hi, thank you, I enjoyed your review 👍 I am trying to find the most suitable keyboard for me, so far the keychron k10 seems the best shot for me, but your comment about the Bluetooth reconnection delay when activating from sleep is concerning for me. Let's say I'm watching a movie and at some point I want to pause - I'll be stuck with unresponsive keyboard and unable to pause the blayback instantly ?
Great product presentation! Cheers.
One question... at 7:12 at the top left of the screen... there is a device with multiple small square screen buttons. Anyone knows what that is?
Nice work
It's a pretty good KB, solid build quality and feel, but mine has a very unstable BT connection, kind of ruins the experience.
I heard that Bluetooth 5.0 has issues. Try 5.2. I dont know how or why but I've seen it helped people.
@@tvrdy3 My mobo has a 5.1 and it is quite wonky. The only adapter I could find is 5.3, would that work?
@@madeofnapalm i have no idea. Sorry.
For some strange reason, I cannot pull any of the keys on my K10 (blue keys).
Bought the Gateron Switch Puller V2 Red as well.. no luck. Any tips?
Make sure its Hot-Swappable version.
I don't know why my K10 didn't have screw at the side. How am i suppose to do if i want to mod this keyboard?? any suggestions for me???
I bought this keyboard yesterday. I discovered that the caps are PAINTED and not finished with its original plastic material. Kind of worrying the paint will be faded out after using it long time...
Thanks for the comment which made me take a closer look at the keycap finish. In retrospect it's fairly obvious that they are painted and I should have spotted that and called it out; this might also explain the "soft" feel that I talked about in the review since you feel the paint, not the plastic.
Having said that, I went back to one of the spare keycaps and experimented with scratching and rubbing with various materials to "simulate" wear. It took the blade of a craft knife and a deliberate, forceful effort to scratch the paint off! Not exactly a scientific experiment, but I'd be optimistic that the paint won't rub off under even heavy and extended, normal use.
As I mentioned in an earlier video, I've also bought some additional keycaps from Keychron and these are definitely NOT painted. So it is definitely a difference worth mentioning when I cover those in an upcoming video.
Thanks again for the comment.
Do you know the software to adjust backlight or rebind keys ?
Does it have static rainbow RGB effect?
does this keyboard have an on screen low battery warning?
The K10 doesn't report battery level to macOS (I don't know about Windows but I would assume it's the same story). It also doesn't come with - or have - any software to provide a custom on-screen status display. So unless there is some third party solution that works generically with Bluetooth keyboards, the answer would be no I think. :(
@@deltics735 Alright thanks for the info :)
Ffs, scratches my keys getting thr switches out. They're way too tight
