For sale is a Keychron K8 Pro mechanical keyboard, specifically the Meckeys exclusive version, also known as Arion Frost. The keyboard is in top-notch, brand new condition, and has seen a total usage of less than one month. Previously, I had a Keychron K2, which I sent for RMA to Meckeys. At the time, they didn't have the K2 in stock, so I paid the price difference and upgraded to the barebones K8 Pro version (without switches and keycaps) in March 2024.
The keyboard has been modded with the holee mod, foam mod, and tape mod on the keys with stabilizers. The stabilizers have also been upgraded to Durock V2 and were hand-lubed with Krytox 205g0. The keyboard runs on RK Brown switches, and the keycaps, which I purchased from CuriosityCaps (link), further enhance the experience. In total, I’ve invested around 3.8K on mods and keycaps alone. Thanks to the mods and upgrades, the typing experience is significantly improved compared to the stock version. The keys with stabilizers no longer rattle as much, and overall, the keyboard has a more "thocky" sound.
Key features of the keyboard include support for both Mac and Windows (with a dedicated switch to toggle between the two), the option to run wired or connect to up to three devices via Bluetooth, and customizable RGB lighting, as shown in the photos. The standout feature, however, is its full customizability through QMK/VIA. You can remap any key, create macros, shortcuts, and key combinations, and even set different configurations for Mac and Windows.
