I appreciate the hot-swappable switches and the overall TKL layout. The responsiveness for gaming is certainly there with the high polling rate. However, the stock Keychron Super Switches produce a sound that's a bit too 'clacky' for my preference, even with the double-shot PBT keycaps. I was hoping for a slightly more muted sound. It's not terrible, just not what I personally enjoy for long typing sessions.
The TKL form factor is perfect for my desk, providing all the keys I need without taking up too much space. The PBT keycaps feel durable and comfortable. Very happy with this purchase for my Mac setup.
The Keychron Super Switches feel incredibly smooth and responsive for all my tasks.
The build quality on this C3 Pro 8K is really good for the price, and the hot-swappable switches are a nice touch for future customization. The 8000 Hz polling rate is definitely a plus for gaming. My only small gripe is that the included USB-C cable feels a bit stiff, making cable management slightly awkward on my desk.
Upgraded from a much older board and the difference is immense. The 8000 Hz polling rate is genuinely noticeable for gaming, and the QMK firmware allows for deep customization. It connected seamlessly with my Windows PC.
