It’s a great option to introduce you to the custom keyboard world while every component can be easily assembled. With its compact 75% layout, acoustic silicone pad, the V1 is designed for ultra typing comfort and boost productivity. - Fully Customizable From the Inside Out: To build a fully customizable keyboard, we designed every component easily assembled, including keycaps, switches, gasket, plate, and case foam if you want. With 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. - Hot-swappable Support: With the mechanical tactile brown switch provides unrivaled tactile responsiveness with up to 50 million keystroke lifespan. You can also hot-swap the V1 with almost all of the 3pin and 5pin MX mechanical switches on the market (including Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Panda, etc.) without soldering required. The PCB-mounted screw-in stabilizer for “big keys” such as space bar, shift, enter, and delete are designed for less wobbliness and smooth performance. - Compatible with both macOS & Windows Systems: Built with the Mac users’ experience in mind while still retaining compatibility for Windows devices, the Keychron V1 comes with a system toggle and an additional set of customized keycaps for both Windows and macOS systems. You can now save two different layouts on the keyboard. - Double-shot PBT Keycaps & South-facing Backlight: The V1 comes with our unique OSA profile and double-shot PBT keycaps that aim to provide a more comfortable and subtle fingertip feel with excellent oil resistance for long-term use. The south-facing RGB is designed to better illuminate the keyboard backlight from the typist’s angle and free from interference when the user installs Cherry- profile alternative keycaps on the V1. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09NLWG6X1 | | Antenna Location | Typing Comfort, Productivity, Customization, Hot-swappable Switch Compatibility, Cross-platform Compatibility (Mac, Windows, Linux) | | Best Sellers Rank | 49,899 in PC & Video Games ( See Top 100 in PC & Video Games ) 1,795 in PC Gaming Keyboards 3,588 in Keyboards (Computers & Accessories) | | Box Contents | Keycaps, switches, silicone acoustic pad, USB-C cable | | Brand Name | Keychron | | Button Quantity | 81 | | Colour | Hot-swap Keychron K Pro Brown Switch | | Compatible Devices | Laptop, Mac, PC | | Compatible Operating System Family | Linux, MacOS, Windows | | Connectivity Technology | USB-C | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (199) | | Enclosure Material | Polybutylene Terephthalate Silicone | | External Testing Certification | Não aplicável | | Generation | 1st Generation | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 32.8L x 14.9W x 2.6H centimetres | | Keyboard Backlighting Color Support | RGB | | Keyboard Description | Gaming | | Keyboard Layout | QWERTY | | Manufacturer | Keychron | | Model Name | Keychron V1 | | Model Number | Keychron V1 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Keys | 81 | | Number of Sections | 5 | | Power Source | USB | | Product Features | QMK/VIA, Fully Customizable, Hot-swappable, RGB, Wired | | Series Number | 1 | | Style Name | Modern | | Switch Type | Tactile | | Theme | mechanical keyboard | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Keychron - **Colour:** Hot-swap Keychron K Pro Brown Switch - **Compatible devices:** Laptop, Mac, PC - **Connectivity technology:** USB-C - **Keyboard backlighting colour support:** RGB - **Keyboard description:** Gaming - **Product dimensions:** 32.8L x 14.9W x 2.6H centimetres - **Special feature:** QMK/VIA, Fully Customizable, Hot-swappable, RGB, Wired - **Style:** Modern ## Images ![Keychron V1 75% Wired Mechanical Keyboard, QMK/VIA Programmable, Hot-swappable K Pro Brown Switches, Compatible with Mac Windows Linux - Carbon Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/618LEzRPqnL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: This V1 keyboard does not have illuminated letters, does it?** A: No, it is backlit, but the lights do not shine through the letters. ## Frequently Bought Together - Keychron V1 75% Wired Mechanical Keyboard, QMK/VIA Programmable, Hot-swappable K Pro Brown Switches, Compatible with Mac Windows Linux - Carbon Black - GUNMJO Pro Custom Coiled USB C Cable for Gaming Keyboard, Double-Sleeved Mechanical Keyboard Cable with Detachable Metal Aviator, 1.5M USB-C to USB-A, Classic Black Color - Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse, Hero 12K Sensor, 12,000 DPI, Lightweight, 6 Programmable Buttons, 250h Battery Life, On-Board Memory, PC/Mac - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/508017536-keychron-v1-75-wired-mechanical-keyboard-qmk-via-programmable-hot](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/508017536-keychron-v1-75-wired-mechanical-keyboard-qmk-via-programmable-hot) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-09-13*
