Gasket Mount Structure & Acoustic Foam Mod
The C3 Pro uses a gasket mount structure to reduce acoustic resonance while adding more typing flexibility. Along with the sound-absorbing foam and the case foam, it provides you with a quieter and smoother typing experience.

An excellent solution for multitasking. You can connect the K2 Pro with up to 3 devices wirelessly via its stable Broadcom Bluetooth 5.1 for seamless multitasking across your laptop, phone, and tablet. Switch among them swiftly, and it’s fully compatible with both Mac and Windows.
A reliable USB Type-C wired connection is also available when you need it.

With full QMK and VIA support, you can easily program and remap each key on the keyboard. The open-source firmware means endless possibilities for keyboard layouts, shortcuts, backlight effects, and more.
Check out the video above demonstrating how to remap the Pause key to a Sleep key with the VIA software to put your Windows to sleep, or even remap the fn key in a breeze. It’s never been so intuitive and flexible to personalize your own keymap.

An Epic Core Inside the Keyboard
A powerful high-performance ARM architecture MCU equipped with 256K Flash will provide more flexibility for developers. The polling rate is 1000 Hz right out of the box, which makes the latency hardly noticeable even in competitive games.
OEM Profile Shine-Through Double-Shot ABS Keycaps
Made through the ABS double-shot process, the keycaps are durable and wear-resistant. Meanwhile, the shine-through letters lit up by the north-facing LED present a glamorous look at your fingertips.
14+ Types of Backlight Mode & Side Lights
Engineered with over 14 varieties of red lights and featuring a range of styles (such as flashing, breathing, and static) to match your mood.
Shine-through keycaps combined with a side-light design are ideal for late-night work or gaming sessions.
Easy Toggle Between macOS and Windows
Press the key combo FN + CAPS to switch the keyboard working system to Mac / Win immediately. And it accommodates universal keycaps compatible with both systems.
Pre-Lubed Keychron Mechanical Switch
Comes with a firm and smooth typing feel. Plus, the factory pre-lubed process on all the Keychron Mechanical switches (excluding the clicky ones), no doubt will ensure the best smoothness at your fingertips when typing.
Ergonomic Support
Three levels of adjustable typing angle (4º, 6º & 8.7º) and curved OEM-profile keycaps are all working together to provide long-lasting ergonomic support for your wrist.

Customer Reviews
I needed an inexpensive keyboard for a Raspberry Pi project. This worked well. It's not perfect: the space bar is too sensitive and the USB-C connector under the keyboard does not have enough clearance to work with the Keychron Double-Sleeved Geek Cable that said it was compatible with "C Pro series". I guess that does not include the C3 Pro.
