KLIM Shift Wireless Mechanical Keyboard 60% - New 2023 - Hotswap RGB Extra 69 keycap Set - Backlit Keyboard Mini Wireless 2.4Ghz & Bluetooth 60% Percent Gaming Keyboard - PC Gamer Win/Mac

This keyboard is very nice. First off, you get an extra set of white key caps with the keyboard which I don’t think any seller is doing besides this one. The keyboard is nice and small, but still has media controls built in so you aren’t missing much from a full size keyboard. It has 3 modes of connection which work pretty well depending on your needs. The RBG is pretty nice with multiple modes to choose from. You can even download the software to customize patterns and keybinds if you need. The keyboard comes with brown switches which honestly feel so good after being on clicky blue switches for so long. The stabilizers on this keyboard sound amazing stock, they also come pre-lubed which is very impressive. Seriously, typing on this thing is so satisfying it’s hard to stop. Of course if you don’t like the stock switches, this keyboard is hot swappable so you can mod it how you want. This thing is a steal for the value you get at such a low price, I would get my hands on one now before the price goes up because honestly you’re not going to get everything you get here from any other seller. Definitely recommend this keyboard for anyone looking to get something nice for their setup, whether they choose to upgrade it later or not.

If this was just the keyboard I might be a little leary of the price. However this keyboard comes with an entire second set of white keycaps! In my opinion it makes this a pretty good value. In additional you can remove the top rim of the keyboard so you can have a bit of a lower profile look to it. I like that it attaches with magnets instead of some kind of plastic clips. The linear switches have a bit more of a bump that I was used too. Say a bit more than your typical Brown switch so if thats a feature you like then this keyboard might be a good choice for you. The keyboard is a bit more hollow sounding that I would expect for a keyboard at this price point but again you have to keep in mind you are getting the removable top plate and a whole nother set of keycaps. This keyboard is 3 and 5 pin compatible so there is a lot of growth here if you decide you want to mod the keyboard.

Ive been building keyboards for a few years now, and Ive found its often very economical to buy a cheap mechanical keyboard, take it apart, install my own switches and keycaps, and sometimes even my own 3d printed case, or a case meant for a more expensive setup. Anyway, I had the same plans for this board when I purchased it. after taking it out of the box, I could tell the switches were the typical cheap switches that normally come with these boards, so I immediately removed them and through them in the trash. I put in some of my own lubed linear switches, and it totally transformed the feel and most importantly, the SOUND of this board. the board uses plate mounted stabilizers, but they are actually very good to my surprise! I added a little dielectric grease to them, and they now sound like some of my premium screw-in stabs I have in more expensive keyboards. I mean, there is no rattle at all! So I decided to keep this one the way it is for now. The case does sound a little hollow, but I think I can put some sound damping material in the bottom to improve that. but as it sits, this is a great keyboard in its price range.

I bought this just as a home for some extra keycaps I own, and it s so good of a keyboard that those caps and this board are now part of my regular rotation. Im using it right now to write this, actually. Keep in mind that the ones in the pictures have aftermarket keycaps. They cost more than the board; this thing is so inexpensive. And I mean inexpensive, not cheap. This is a quality product. I dont know what it is going for when you are reading this, but at the time of writing, you can buy two for the price of most decent 65s, but this one has 3-way Bluetooth, 2.4ghz wireless, and its programmable. Of course, you can also plug it in with a USB-C connection, though it is picky because of an entirely unnecessarily recessed port. In my opinion, this is the only questionable decision made by this board. Would I recommend this to a friend? Listen, I liked it so much that I bought another one to try out switches and keycaps without breaking down the boards I am using for school and work because the first one ended up being my main programming keyboard.

It was a gift for my grandson and he loves it! Looking at ordering him a mouse for it

The Unboxing experience is like no other keyboard thus far in my personal experience. Everything was so nicely boxed and it came with so much. You get the keyboard with stock black keycaps, and Jixian Brown Tactile switches. An EXTRA set of white keycaps. A switch, and keycap puller. A non braided USB A to USB C cable. Back up Jixian Brown switches. A user guide for keyboard shortcuts depending on Mac/PC and Which country/Language. The instruction manual in general which is nice and thick. A little envelope with Klim branded stickers and a little flyer about the little 10 person team that makes these boards and how to contact them. I was pleasantly surprised by the keycaps, never seen a keyboard come with an entire set of extra keycaps. It is a 65% with tri mode connection (BT, Wireless with dongle, and USB) Honestly, stock right out of the box the keyboard isnt bad. The keycaps are ABS but they look and feel nice IMO. The white ones look better and have better shine through with the RGB. The RGB also bounces off the white metal plate super nicely. The Jixian Brown switches are pretty tactile, definitely better than MX and Gateron Browns. The stabs were flush, and prelubed. There was a tiny bit of foam in the case and nothing between the PCB and plate. There are a total of 8 screws, 4 on top 4 on bottom holding this keyboard together to the case. There a daughter board so the USB C port is inside the case and not on the PCB. The 2.4ghz Wireless Dongle sits flush on the outside rim of the magnetic shroud. The button to change modes on the bottom is a toggle rubber dome like button and each mode has a designated color. 3-5 Pin Hot Swap. North Facing LEDs The keyboard didnt sound bad for the price stock but I knew it could use some love so: 3 layers of tape on the back of the PCB two layers of foam between the plate and PCB Unlubed clear top Gateron Yellows stabs were flush so no need to clip, dielectric grease on the wires. Contact Zip N Fit perforated shelf liner in the case I might go back and redo the stabs totally with band aids on the PCB to help but honestly for my cousin its more than fine. This is in my opinion the best value budget keybord in my opinion for what you get, and the potential of what the board can be.

Wow. I was thoroughly surprised with this keyboard. Like yeah, the brown switches the board came with were atrocious, but wow to everything else. This is the ONLY keyboard in this price range Ive seen have LUBED STABILIZERS. Like theyre damn near perfect (Small small small rattle on spacebar but everything else is visibly lubed and tuned right). The sound signature isnt bad and it comes with an extra set of white keycaps, keycap and switch puller, and 2.4ghz bluetooth. Quite the impressive package for under $30. You wont find another 5 pin hotswap keyboard of this caliber for the price anywhere. Id recommend buying 70x jwick black switches to replace the browns with and boom, ping gone :)

Ill be honest. Ive sort of avoided KLIM for awhile. As far as budget mechanical keyboards go, I had heard some good things, but I was never a fan of the look of many of their keyboards. Then, I saw this keyboard and figured Id give it a go. Not only am I impressed with the looks of this mechanical keyboard, but I am impressed with just about every feature so far. It punches way above its weight class in price and ticks all the right boxes when looking for a good budget (or any) mechanical keyboard. Here are some obligatory bullet points. WHAT I LIKE: -Hefty build. For an all-plastic keyboard, this is the heaviest I have had so far. -Great switches. I imagine these are KLIMs own switches and they feel very nice. The brown switches have the patented tactile bump but are still much quieter than blue, clicky switches. The key travel is nice and actuation is balanced and consistent across all keys -Very customizable: This keyboard comes with all-white keycaps, which gives you the ability to replace all or just a portion of the black keycaps with white ones. For example, you can just replace the most-used keys (for example WASD for gaming) with white keys. The keyboard also comes with a nice keycap remover and switch remover, and the base is removable. -Even the USB-A to USB-C cable included is a nice cable. Its pretty thick and fairly long (maybe 5 feet). -Good lighting features and the LEDs are diffused and hidden quite well. Ive used many cheaper mechanical keyboard in which you can see the actual LEDs from just about every angle. I tried to actually see them with this keyboard, but couldnt. The lighting is done well. And another positive is that it has a static color mode. I dont know why this feature seems to be missing from so many mechanical/gaming keyboards Ive used, but its a nice touch. And this KLIM keyboard has it. -Latency seems low, though I havent actually measured it and the battery has lasted several hours for me so far. The battery is rated at 2000mAh and charges in about 3-4 hours. WHAT COULD BE IMPROVED -Quick guide. You know the guy who never read directions right away? Yeah, Im that guy. But, hey, if you give me a quick guide, thats what Im using. The problem is it lists the buttons to use for Bluetooth, which I always prefer over a USB-port thieving dongle, but doesnt mention the fact that you have to turn the keyboard over and switch it manually to Bluetooth mode, which brings me to bullet No. 2 ... -Bluetooth: You have to manually switch between 2.4GHz and Bluetooth mode. Ive seen this many times on cheaper devices, and this is technically a budget keyboard, but still, it would be nice if the Bluetooth button was smart enough to automatically switch it to Bluetooth mode. I dont understand it. If it knows I want to use Bluetooth, why cant it just automatically switch? -And, finally: spring ping. Its that echo you get after lifting the keycap after every stroke. Ive only really noticed this in cheaper mechanical keyboards, and this one has it pretty bad. Its not as bad as some others Ive used, but its quite noticeable. -The off switch does not work while charging. If -- like me -- you use a portable charger to charge your battery while using Bluetooth mode, the off button does not work. If anything is plugged in and you flip the switch on the back to off, the keyboard will still function normally. The only way to turn the keyboard off while charging is to physically remove the USB cable. -Battery percentage is in accurate. Ive also noticed this with other budget keyboards so I dont know if its an issue with Windows 10 or an issue with the software used in these keyboards, but when using Bluetooth, Windows will report 0 or 1% battery life it the USB cable is plugged in while using it wirelessly. Overall, however, the positives vastly outweigh the negatives. Im typing on it now and its a pure joy. If youre going down that mechanical keyboard rabbit hole as I am and are looking for a good tactile keyboard to try out, Id highly recommend this KLIM Shift keyboard. Its a great value.

This is my first mechanical keyboard. I work in a job with a whole lot of typing and can already tell the difference it is making ergonomically because my wrists dont scream at me at the end of the day. It is very high quality and was packaged beautifully. Even the user manual was fun to read, and KLIM has clearly put a lot of thought into every aspect of their company -- from the slick packaging, to the funny customer service packet, to all of the features jam packed onto this keyboard--it can connect in three modes, wireless, wired and bluetooth, and switch between three different bluetooth connections at the click of a key (a beautiful click, on this splendid keyboard.) Even though it is a compact keyboard, it includes a function key and clearly labeled descriptions of what fn + key does, no more googling. The LED backlight is just icing on the cake, and it has a whole bunch of different patterns, including one that ripples out light for each key you type -- which I am currently using now and very much in love with. I cant wait to try replacing some of the keys. Keyboards seem like a simple thing in the office until you have one with customizable keys and LED lighting--it brings me a lot of joy day to day and gives me a neat feeling of personal autonomy in a sometimes drab and nondescript workplace. 12/10 would feel like a pro hacker dude even though I am just an office worker again. (No Sarah you may not have my cool keyboard. Get your own.)

I really enjoy using this keyboard in my setup, very premium feel, very cool effects, and very heavy (not made out of cheap plastic). I totally recommend this keyboard, and it was totally worth the money!
