An 8000 Hz polling rate — adjustable from 125 Hz right up to 8000 Hz — delivers faster input registration, near-instant triggering and ultra-low latency, so every keystroke lands with precision. Powered by an Arm Cortex-M4 chip and open-source QMK firmware, it gives gamers and typists across South Africa serious responsiveness with endless room to customise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProgram Everything with QMK, VIA and Launcher\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen-source QMK firmware with VIA support means near-limitless customisation. Using the browser-based Keychron Launcher, you can remap keys, record macros and fine-tune shortcuts on Windows, macOS or Linux — no software to install. Because the firmware is open source, the community can review it for safety, giving you complete confidence and control over your inputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Refined, Acoustically Tuned Typing Experience\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C1 Pro 8K is tuned for sound and feel from the inside out. Layers of sound-absorbing foam, PET film, IXPE film, bottom-case acoustic foam and a silicone bottom pad work together for a satisfying, thocky typing sound and consistent key feel. Pre-lubed Keychron Super switches glide smoothly, plate-mounted stabilisers keep larger keys steady, and OSA-profile double-shot PBT keycaps resist shine and stop the legends fading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHot-Swappable and Built to Personalise\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMake it truly yours. The hot-swappable PCB accepts almost any 3-pin or 5-pin MX-style switch (Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Panda and more) with no soldering required. South-facing RGB lighting shines cleanly through from the typist’s angle — even with non-shine-through PBT keycaps — for vivid, even backlighting you can tailor key by key.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eComfortable, All-Day Ergonomics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for long sessions, the C1 Pro 8K offers three adjustable typing angles (4.8°, 8.5° and 10.7°) and curved OSA-profile keycaps that work together to support your wrists. A system toggle plus included Windows and macOS keycaps let you switch seamlessly between platforms and save separate layouts for each.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClassic TKL (80%) wired custom mechanical keyboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8000 Hz polling rate, adjustable from 125 Hz to 8000 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen-source QMK firmware with VIA support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgrammable via the browser-based Keychron Launcher (remap, macros, shortcuts)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHot-swappable PCB compatible with 3-pin and 5-pin MX switches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-lubed Keychron Super Red (linear) switches for a smooth, quiet keystroke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSouth-facing RGB backlight for clean illumination with PBT keycaps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOSA-profile double-shot PBT keycaps that resist shine and fading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple acoustic layers (sound-absorbing foam, PET film, IXPE film, bottom-case acoustic foam, silicone bottom pad)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlate-mounted stabilisers for steady larger keys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree adjustable typing angles (4.8° \/ 8.5° \/ 10.7°)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSystem toggle with included Windows and macOS keycaps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Windows, macOS and Linux\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArm Cortex-M4 (AT32F405) processor with 256KB MCU storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLayout: TKL (80%)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnectivity: USB Type-C wired\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolling Rate: 8000 Hz (adjustable 125 Hz–8000 Hz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirmware: QMK (open-source), VIA support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitch: Keychron Super Red (linear, 45 ±15 gf, pre-lubed; up to 50M keystrokes)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHot-Swappable: Yes (3-pin and 5-pin MX)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeycaps: OSA-profile double-shot PBT (non-shine-through)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBacklight: South-facing RGB LED\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStabilisers: Plate-mounted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount Style: Tray mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Material: Plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMCU: Arm Cortex-M4 (AT32F405), 256KB storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAngle: 4.8° \/ 8.5° \/ 10.7°\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeet Height: 2 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront Height: 19.71 mm (without keycaps)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack Height: 28.60 mm (without keycaps)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating Environment: -10°C to 50°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Dimensions: 35.7 × 13.1 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Weight: 830 g (±10 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWHAT’S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeychron C1 Pro 8K 80% Super Red Hot-swappable RGB Wired Mechanical Keyboard x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB Type-C to Type-C Cable x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType-A to USB Type-C Adapter x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitch Puller x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeycap Puller x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy Keychron?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeychron is one of the most respected names in custom mechanical keyboards, trusted by enthusiasts and professionals worldwide for blending premium build quality with genuine customisability.
