Program with QMK & VIA.

QMK/VIA means endless possibilities for a fluid workflow. Thanks to our engineering team, it's the first time in history that a wireless mechanical keyboard has these kinds of capabilities right out of the box.
 
Simply connect the K5 Pro to your device with a cable, drag and drop your favorite keys or macro commands to remap any key you want on any system (macOS, Windows, or Linux).

Check out the video above demonstrating how to remap the F16 key (located on the K5 Pro’s top right corner) to an Eject key with the VIA software, so you can get a shortcut to put your Mac to sleep (Command-Option-Eject), or even remap the fn key in a breeze. It’s never been so intuitive and flexible to personalize your own keymap.
 
An ultra-low-power ARM Cortex-M4 32-bit STM32L432 MCU which is powerful, and equipped with 128K Flash will provide more flexibility for developers.

Get the keymap working on VIA

Since the VIA code for the K5 Pro is still awaiting approval from Github, it is not yet automatically recognized, so you will need to manually download and import the K5 Pro keymap.
 
Please download the keymap JSON file below. Connect your keyboard and device with the provided cable, and toggle the switch to cable mode. Open VIA, click on the "Show Design tab" on the "Settings" tab, and drag the JSON file into the “Design” tab on VIA to get the K5 Pro keymap working on VIA.

My thoughts on the K5 Pro (As my first ever mechanical keyboard)

This keyboard was my first ever mechanical keyboard and i am pretty happy with the choice i made, i can't stop having fun typing out in this keyboard and it feels like great quality, ended up going with red switches but its a hot-swappable keyboard making it easy in the future for me if i ever want to try out the other types of switches there are, only complaint i'd have about this keyboard is its software doesn't naturally recognize the keyboard so i had to do a bit of some shenanigans to get it to recognize but i eventually got it working.

Excellent quality, basically almost 0 complaints and will make sure to buy another keychron keyboard in the future if i ever need a new one!

Im not sure what's the normal feeling of mechanical keyboards as this is my first one but I feel like the keys are a bit loose in a sense that I can push them around a bit.

RGB lighting is a bit inconsistent, bigger keys like space, enter etc only emit light at the center while small keys are fully covered in light.

Maybe I'm just being dumb but I think some backlight animations are broken and default to a solid color instead. I love that the firmware is open source so if I am too annoyed by this, I can fix it myself.

This is just feedback what you guys could improve in the next series if not already. Would still buy it again ;)

Wonderful Keyboard and great support from Keychron

The Keyboard is a dream to type on. The keys are very responsive and quite. The connection is stable.
A special thanks to the great customer support! My first keyboard was damaged on transport (bended in the middle) After a nice conversation, they sent me a new one, I only had to pay the shipping costs. Thanks again for that :) I can only recommend the brand and this keyboard.
A happy customer :)

Typing heaven

The only caveat with these keyboards is that it is not possible to purchase directly with other configurations (I would've preferred to buy ISO Spanish) other than that, the quality and style are unmatchable for the price.

Great keyboard

A great keyboard, build quailty is high, the red switches are pleasant to both my ears and fingers. No bluetooth issues, very satisfied!
