We’re now tracking some notable discounts from the official Keychron storefront over at Amazon with one our our favorites being the C3 Pro QMK/VIA Hot-Swappable RGB Mechanical Keyboard for $39.71 shipped. Typically priced at $47, this may not seem like a huge discount at 15% off, but it’s actually quite notable given the already affordable price point of this keyboard. Oh, and it also undercuts the previous Amazon low. Outfitted with hot-swappable brown or red switches, this wired mechanical keyboard is a solution that can be tweaked to get your preferred level of tactility and audible clicks at any time. It also boasts open-source QMK/VIA support for custom key remapping, RGB lighting effects, and so much more. A wired design means that you can keep the backlight effects running at all times with no need to recharge it or swap out batteries. I’m writing this post right now from my Keychron keyboard and cannot recommend the brand highly enough. Keep on reading to find more Keychron offerings priced as low as $27.
