I really like your video style. None of that 4 minutes of useless B-roll and elevator music. I also greatly appreciate your strong opinions. Being neutral as a tech reviewer is so boring and kills all sense of personality.

Great video! One distracting thing is that the secret lab logo on your chair at times makes you look like you have elf ears 😂

I owned Keychron K1 version 4 and I love it so much! I used it for my work office and mostly without turning on the backlit, it could last for 1 week for 8 hours of working. I disable the auto sleep mode so it stay connected. I love it so much! I think Keychron will be the best company that produce high quality keyboards with much lower price tag.

I find it just awesome that you create the sections on the video! that's awesome because then, we don't need that comment that says like : "conclusions at 10:14" keep it up man!

Thanks for the review! I looked at both. Definitely couldn’t justify the price of the Logitech. Also, as a Mac user, having the native keys on the Keychron boards make them a no-brainer. I ended up going with a K2 instead of the K1 - mostly because I was impatient... the K2 was in stock at the time. I’m actually looking forward to their new K3. I might pick one up when they launch. Hot swappable low profile. Sounds like a winner.

I'm a little late to the party but this was one of the most well thought out comparisons I've seen. Well done. I'd really love to see more peripheral comparisons!

Absolutely underrated. This channel is going places.

The only video I've seen that discusses flimsy keycaps on the G915. Good call. Also, you should be able to re-map keys through Windows 10

i have tried "indie" mechanical keyboards and typically switched back to logitech - they always seem to get closest to the right feel and i don't have that much money to experiment. Would love to support Keychron if they shipped worldwide at a reasonable rate.

Congrats on 10k btw you deserve so much more than 10k you deserve 100k

Im kinda addicted to your videos. u put so much work in your videos and that makes it even more enjoyable to watch. Hard work always pays off keep it up 👍

Some friendly advice: maybe it's better to include typing sound comparison and actuation force graph if you can find one, also pay more attention to the space bar since they are sometimes less stable then other keys. Great video, keep it up :) Congrats on 10k

Excellent review! My only suggestion would be to have a longer typing sound test; would be neat to put a mic at roughly head-level and compare the two keyboards' sounds. Thanks!

as a non-usa citizen, you thinking us in 10k sub, I'm really happy to just seeing your reviews. In addition to this giving opportunity a winning giveaway, it's really something else. thank you again for your hard work and thank you for your kindness.

i bought g915 for my wifes birthday and I get to touch it, it might have cost me $230 but god lord that keyboard is a ferrari, and Id do it all over again

18k NOW! Great job. Just subscribed!

Loved this review, planning on buying K1 V4

Hello Bijan, thanks for this video. This video gave me the final decision of going Keychron a month ago. I also feature your video on my own version of keychron review.

Nice comparison! Just ordered the K1 v4 (full size, brown switches) and I expect to have it by tomorrow. So excited!

Just ordered the 87 key K1 with RGB and brown switches. Can't wait for it to get here! Great video and very informative. Sounds to me like the battery life will be the one thing about the keyboard that I'll dislike the most. I'm currently using a 6 or 7 year old Logitech K811 that still gets me weeks of use between charges. I've loved the K811, but I wanted to jump into the the mechanical keyboard world.

Very smart way to identify the actuation force of the keys!

Another great review. I really like the size of the K1 and the stable key caps but reliability weights more for me with G915 connectivity and support.

Thanks for the review! Really enjoyed the comparison at 10:30

Really appreciate this review!

Bijan! Thanks for the review! Definitely helped me decide between this and g915

thorough, great tempo, great quality, clean and clear and you're a good looking dude. This, my good sir, was an awesome video!

I have the full lenght G915 and i love it! absolute dream to type on.

Great comparison... Just a heads up, you can lock the F keys to always function as media controls.

I already ordered the G915 with linear switches, which I'm sure I'll like, but, based on your review, I also ordered the K1 with clicky switches as backup. Thanks for all the info.

Awesome review! Just purchase my second Keychron K1. But will put the G915 on my Xmas wish list.

this guy is so underrated its crazy

extremely helpful video. Thanks!

This was great. It would be great to have you review the new keychron k8 thats coming soon. I see other youtubers reviewing early versions of the model.

Hi I didn't know this existed I was hesitant at first because I thought the input lag would be noticeable different but it seems not to be the case and buying a cheaper, more durable product is economical so thanks for the video!

Nice job again bro. Your reviews are amazing.

I'm getting the G915 Red. Can't afford any hickups in serious competitive gaming. Plus every milisecond of that input lag is so valuable. The cost is a bit much, butI know this will be my keyboard for the next 5 years.

Hey! Huge fan of your video, extremely underrated. If you are using this keyboard (or any others with function keys) on a Mac (might be on Windows 10, not sure), you can set the function keys as your default keys, so you won't have to press "FN" to trigger them. This can also be reversed so you have to press "FN" to trigger the media keys.

عالی بود بیژن جان،خدا قوت کارت همیشه عالیه عزیزم👌

@4:06 You got the correct side :) Thanks for this review, extremely helpful.

I’m going to subscribe because you really deserve much more subscribers

Great and detail review. Hope to see you review keychrone k3 in near furture.

great review of the 2 keyboards. I would go for the G915 when being between them. I would use it on my sim racing rig and not so much for gaming. what got me sold on teh Logitech was the connection issues and the wake up reaction time. in racing oviously the keybard would not be used for longer periods in between but would then have to be ready to use best immediately. Also being able to reach quickly for the volume control maybe while wearing gloves is a plus. thx for the good reviews. keep it up.

No shade on the Keychron, but Ive used both, and the g915 tkl keys feel amazing, and the RGB is awesome. I found the G915 on sale for 170 USD, so it was worth it to me.

Fantastic video!

Good review. Keep them coming

With the K1 you can switch between Function buttons (+ Fn for media keys) to Media keys (+ Fn for Function buttons) using a key combination - it's in the paperwork for the board, can't remember it off the top of my head! The problem I've found with my K1 is that there are very very few low profile keycaps available on the market, so it's very difficult to customise. I assume the same would go for the G915 as they both use the same Kailh Choc/Gateron LP style switches. For future keyboard videos it might be worth doing a typing test so people can hear the differences too - even if they are using the same switch the chassis and keycaps would make a huge difference to the sound and feel of typing.

Great review thanks!

Lovely video! Very well done. There is something to be said about established brand... esp. for people who already own other peripherals from Logitech (G Pro mouse for example). Presumably one can get a USB-C to micro-USB adapter? $230 is a lot for a keyboard but it's something we use multiple hours a day... we spend way more on things that matter way less. ABS keycaps is a throw off... nothing can be done about that. Why isn't there a perfect wireless + TKL board out there? MX Keys has been my daily driver... I don't mind chiclet but it's full size. TKL is like wireless, once you go either, you don't go back. And no one is making TKL 'productivity' type of board.

I Had a Keychron K4 And I was also having issues with the connectiivies. When I Would wake it up the letters would repeat and I would have to wait a few seconds until gets back to normal. I decided to buy an G915 for you past review and give it a try and I really like this keyboard but Is like you said for the price this keyboard should do so much more. But Is Really one of the best Keyboard I ever used.

Got a K1v4 blue switch and feel so good when typing !!!!

Seems like a compelling comparison 👍👍

Awesome review. Subbed!

I think there's a keyboard setting that would enable/disable the F1-F12 switches and use the media keys instead. But that said, if you're constantly using the F keys that would be much, much, more annoying. On the Mac side of things connection is consistent, the media keys work well (and I don't use much of the F keys either). I agree that the battery life left me quite wanting for more, but overall it's a solid purchase (for me).

Excellent review!👍👍👍

You can swap the functionality of the function keys so they are media keys by press and FN to use the function keys.

I got my g915 tkl for $50 off during black friday so that’s nice.

i own the huntsman elite TE and i couldnt be more happy its high quality constructed and it costs about 130$ in my region.

Awesome video & comparison! When you got to the end, on "what Logitech has" all I heard is "90% of stuff I don't need" 😂 I've always disliked media keys for example: they take up space, they're usually in a different shape than the rest of the keys and I have no use for them, maybe I change the volume once a week or something like that...

Just pre-ordered the 75% K3 .. i think with their new optical blue switches. Man cant wait.

Excellent review. Recently bought the G915 (G913 in my market) but was also looking at the K1V2. Where I live the price difference was not so great, Got the Logitech on a special of around USD170, while the Keychron here is around USD100

Another fantastic review! Every time I stop at my local bast buy I look at Logitech TKL. Just can’t see me paying that amount. Not that I can’t, but it’s a principal thing.

Bought the full size G915 for £109. Was considering getting the Corsair K100 but I'm trying to make the transition to making everything wireless (it's also £223 which is silly for a keyboard). So far, so good. Coming from a guy that likes clicky switches, the linear feel is pretty good.

Congrats on 10K subs. For such a small channel, you'r production quality is insanely good. Just recently found you through your great Odyssey G7 review, which ultimately lead me to buy one. I'd get the K1 over the G915 alone because of the 69 gram actuation force, which is nice, of course. Keep up the good work!

6:13 damn very good idea to test and show the actuation force of the switch.

I bought a Keychron yesterday, and i confirm that its a good keyboard

Some people like flat keyboards, while some people like raised keyboards. That is correct, my friend.

Enjoyed your review of the g915 tkl and bought 1 for myself. I am relatively new to computer gaming and tried going with a cheap Teamwolf brand keyboard that lasted 2 weeks before I started having issues with the keys popping off. In any case the only thing i would disagree with you on is I don't notice a lot of slop in keys but of course it just my opinion. Thanks for content and you just earned a sub.

Don't know why, but here in Mexico the G915 TKL is on $2,500 MXN which translate to $114 USD, bought it last week and loved it.

I don't know about K1 but you can long-press fn+X+L for 3 sec. to switching between Function Key and Media Key on Keychron K4 so you don't have to press "fn + whatever" to adjust your media control.

only bluetooth without lightspeed already a dealbreaker and the media buttons are my favorite feature of my g915 beside the wireless without latency

Immaculate production quality as always! Regarding the input delay, I have some qualms with your conclusion. Keychron has a 125Hz polling rate while logitech 1000Hz. the input delay between the two is ~30ms on keychron and ~15ms on Logitech. to be fair, not a lot of people can tell a difference of 15ms delay, especially when they do not game seriously. However, if you're an avid gamer I'd strongly suggest for you to try the difference between a BT/cheap wireless keyboard and a gaming wireless keyboard (ASUS ROG, Corsair, Logitech). Personally, I, for the life of me cannot bear using a BT keyboard at all due to how terrible the delay is and the keyboard just feel unresponsive. Do remember that even until now, Logitech has the fastest wireless technology so if you compared BT against like a corsair or ROG wireless keyboard, keep in mind that logitech is even faster in that aspect. not to mention the monstrous battery life that logitech has. I charge my keyboard like every 1-2 weeks and I'm on my PC for at least 8hrs a day. back when I actually had to leave my house (yea the good ol day) I didn't charge the thing for 3 whole months. 3 whole months! is this KB even wireless? Logitech might be doing some obscure black magic to supply the keyboard with the soul of those using their cheaper peripherals as power source. Keyboard that i have used so far are Keychron K4 V2, G915, G Pro wireless, G513, K95 platinum, a custom mechanical keyboard, and a cheapass aliexpress wireless keyboard. and so far, I'm truly loving my g915 a lot. The feeling of the switch for g915 is imo not as good as a good custom mechanical keyboard at the same price point. It was bearable, and after i used krytox 205g0 on it, any keycap rattle just vanish and I'm left with a keboard that actually feels ~$150. however, I'm willing to pay a $100 premium for a better than wired input delay experience and not having to charge the keyboard every 1-2 days. I mean, if I gotta charge the keyboard every 1-2 days why bother wireless amirite? the only complaint that I'd give for g915 personally is the lack of backlighting passthrough on the 2nd symbol for number and punctuation keys and the lack of scroll lock/num lock indicator. altho, using a software like aurora/artemis to make a custom lighting indicator for scroll lock and num lock is truly amazing. but this feature really should be native to LGS/GHUB (which they haven't addressed at all till now even after tens of people suggested it). However, we cannot ignore Logitech notoriousness of pulling an "apple move" with their practices like their proprietary bullshittery, fragile keycaps (I haven't forgiven you, Romer G. even though i love your feeling), lack of spare parts supports, THE FUCKING MICRO USB (god fucking damnit it should be illegal for anything costing more than $20 to not have USB C), terrible software compared to competitive (ROG and iCue), and their lack of response from customer feedback/complaints. all in all, if you cannot feel the input delay difference, more power to you. and I envy you a lot. Wireless peripherals cost a lot and I can't bear the input delay on any subpar wireless devices. Logitech has spoiled me hard on this aspect.

Fyi, for the Keychron K1, you can switch the F/multimedia keys to have the media controls as the first press and the F keys as the secondary press with the fn button. Hold fn + X + L for 3 second to switch between the two options. 👍

Don’t know if it says in the manual, but you can actually lock the top row to media functions.

Yes! I was looking forward to this video. Ooo and a giveaway. I’d like more comparisons like this. Maybe a tournament? Putting two keyboards against one another, leading to an overall champ.

Great review my dude. I'm not going to switch wireless keyboard. I like my corsair k70 a bit too much

I have had the Keychron in for a couple of weeks now. I'm really happy with it. I went for the blue switches. They're pretty loud and definitely not suited for the workplace. You can lock the F-keys to the media control setting. On bluetooth it lasts a full day with backlight on. The key are not very legible without the backlight so I mostly use it corded. All in all I can recommend getting it. Especially for the price it's good value.

I really like the K4 with brown switches ...tempting to get one

K1 I felt very nice at the beginning, but 2 important things I notice after 6 months: 1. the battery does not last very long (a few days only); 2. some keys do not respond properly ( i have to press twice). The keyboard QUALITY i rate 5 of 1-10.

Hey dude, such a nice video ... What adapter are you using for bluetooth to test the latency on the K1?

great video! I also saw the "the elf ears", the logo in your chear made it look like elf ears. great comparison, I was choosing between these two, and now I know more about them. thank you!

Awesome outtro :))

First! Looking forward for this keyboard review and compared to G915.

Had G915, was nice, but no mac keys. Then MX Keys, useless since the backlight won't stay on even when it is plugged in. Keychron K1 came in yesterday and love everything about it. Full size, always on white backlight, blue clicky switches. I do think it could use some elevation so I ordered keyboard riser legs for it on amazon. also got the dark gray keycap set.

I have several Keychron's that do that thing where it stops syncing with my Mac after it goes to sleep and I, too, have to either restart it or plug my cable back into it.

Liked that cat wallpaper behind

The power and following switches are better recessed than protruding. You don't want those switches to move by themselves while transporting the keyboard for example on a backpack, they should be moved only on purpose, so I really hope Keychron keeps them recessed.

I have the Keychron K1 v5 Blue optical and the G915 TKL Blue. They are both solid options and I like both. However, if I had to choose one, it will be the G915 TKL Blue. There is something about those switches that make my fingers long to type on them.

I got this low profile 65% DareU EK820, actually two of them in red and blue switches, instead of Keychron K1. The Logitech is way out of my budget, and I still use their old TKL G Pro keyboard for gaming.

great video. I recently purchased the logitech g915 Lightspeed and I was wondering if there is a site that you would recommend to for me to buy replacement or customized key caps for it?

Hi. Bijan. Nice to see a Persian name on KZfaq and thank you for this professional review. I have an apple magic keyboard for my imac. I find it really hard to type with it. The keys are way too flat and small for my hand. I am not a pro typist , but I am practicing to type with 10 fingers. Do you think shifting to a Keychron K2 Version 2 will make me feel comfortable when typing during my English online classes as a teacher? Or, you have another suggestion.

You have good timing with the reviews, typically reviewing stuff I am considering buying. Right now I was between this and the K6, which you might also want to check out. I have never had a low profile keyboard so I wasnt sure. Probably going to try the K1 v4 now and probably going to have to buy it because unlike some, the Keychron store ships to Finland...

I love the Keychron, but that battery life is just terrible. Also, if you accidentally hit the light switch, which you probably will as it's on the corner of a frameless case, then you have to cycle through the whole list of lighting effects just to get back to the one you want. They should change the implementation so you hold down the lightswitch, and select the number of the effect you want. They should also replace the OS mode switches with dip switches for each profile, that way you don't have to change modes every time you change profiles.

Have you considered making an updated review? The new version of the Keychron K1 addresses the issues you had with your dated version?

spot on review.

You deserve more subscribers

LOL, I currently have the Keychron K1 v4 and got the G915 TKL so you've made the perfect video for me. I can say a few things coming from the Keychron and going the other direction. Firstly, there is nothing wrong with the Keychron and it's an amazing keyboard. I plan on keeping it and using it with my work computer. The things the Keychron doesn't have that I miss are very minor and most people probably wouldn't notice. For me, I like having individually programmable LED Keys. Having WSAD and PrintScreen lit in a very low red is amazing when I'm playing a game with all my lights off. The Keychron only has pre-programmed light modes and I find that all of them reflect an unnecessary light off the screen at night. I also like the Logitech G-Hub software (I know it sucks sometimes) I have a Logitech mouse and the ability to set my keys to do anything I want is very helpful. The Keychron just doesn't have the same features. You can tell the Keychron comes from a smaller company. It's very well done and in 99% of cases it would be all you need, but in the pursuit of the perfect setup (for me) it just falls a little bit short. That being said, for the price you absolutely cannot beat the Keychron. But if you get to a point in your life where price doesn't matter as much, or if you are a but once cry once kind of person you should get the Logitech.

Thanks for commenting on input lag. Does the keyboard recognise multiple keys at once ?

Whats the best keyboard you recommend for programming?

If I choose wireless I would aim for most stable connection. I am a gamer and any malfunction will cause me fxxup...I try quite many wireless, light speed is best. It is expensive but it is worth for its utmost stability. I never have any connection problem with lightspeed
