Input lag is minimal on K6 via wireless, though I can sort of feel a little bit of difference compared to wired, it’s recommended to use the keyboard in wired mode if every millisecond is important to you. I haven’t had any drops or weird input interactions on wireless at all. The reported wireless connectivity problems of previous Keychron boards isn’t present here. The modifier keys use a mix of icons and word labels. The font and colour choice of the keycaps is superb, I love the Dolch-y look of the caps, the font is really pleasing and clean with easy to read sub legends. I suspect after some use these keycap legends will degrade quite a bit.
The ABS caps are painted with a laser-etching made out for the main legends for shine-through, the sub-legends are painted on with a secondary colour. Aftermarket keycaps are highly recommended for the K6. What is surprising though is how slick the keycaps are out of the box, there’s basically no texture to the caps at all, I shudder to think what these caps will feel like after they take on the typical ABS shine. The keycaps included with the Keychron K6 are made of the typical thin ABS plastic, which isn’t surprising considering its price point. The switch puller is a little anemic, it’s thin and inflexible and it actually makes removing switches harder than it needs to be, just a little more heft and width would’ve made this barebones switch puller better. All the switches I had on hand installed easily without any issue, the insert was solid with no wiggle. The K6 has a hot-swappable version that I would highly recommend if you’re looking to try out a bunch of different switches, the 5-pin switch socket is compatible with pretty much all popular PCB mount switches. They’re not ducky level stabilizers, but they’re definitely not a rattle-fest that you’d see on a ton of other mainstream keyboards. While I wouldn’t say that the stabilizers are flawless, they come pre-lubed out of the factory and the stabilizers are actually somewhat smooth and sound satisfying. The typing test above is with Gateron Browns. The keyboard can come with the Red, Blue, or Brown Gateron or LK Optical switches. The K6 comes with several switch options which is something I always give points for.
