Keychron has released a new full-size C2 Pro 8K QMK mechanical keyboard. It gets a few chips from more expensive models, including greased proprietary switches and multi-layer noise and vibration isolation. The Keychron C2 Pro 8K QMK is made in a plastic case and connects to a PC only wirelessly via the USB Type-C  With the continued success of the USB interface, there exists a need to adapt USB technology to serve newer computing platforms and devices as they trend toward smaller, thinner and lighter form-factors. Many of these newer platforms and devices are reaching a point where existing USB receptacles and plugs are inhibiting innovation, especially given the relatively large size and internal volume constraints of the Standard-A and Standard-B versions of USB connectors. port. It supports a sampling rate of 8000 Hz. It adopts noise and vibration isolation from more expensive models: it has a sound-absorbing layer of foam, IXPE and PET foils, an EPDM (expanded rubber) backing, a silicone pad and a bottom layer of acoustic foam.The keyboard comes with three types of factory-lubricated switches to choose from: these are Keychron Super Red, Brown, or Banana. There are also PBT plastic keycaps in OSA profile and folding feet with keyboard locking angles of 4, 8 and 10?. The new product is compatible with QMK firmware and supports Keychron Launcher for fine-tuning. There's also a Snap Tap function, which registers the action of the last pressed key without releasing another already pressed one. Despite the all-plastic body, the keyboard weighs 975 grams. The price of the Keychron C2 Pro 8K QMK is approximately $64. |
