Amazon is offering nearly 50% off Keychron K7 mechanical keyboards. They start at only $47 for the white LED model (normally $99.99) and $51 for the RGB LED model (normally $103.990. These deals are Amazon Prime member exclusives and you'll need to be signed into your Prime account to see these prices.

Keychron K7 65% Low-Profile Mechanical Keyboards Starting at $47

The Keychron K7 is a compact 65% layout with 68 keys. Both Mac and Windows keys are included. This keyboard is extremely low-profile, thanks to a newer style Gateron mechanical switch that is 40% slimmer than conventional switches with a shorter travel distance for faster input trigger. Just because it's thin doesn't mean it's flimsy. The top frame is made of aluminum and it's reinforced with a interior steel plate for extra rigidity. The Gateron switches are hot-swappable, so they can be replaced with other low-profile mechanical switches by just pulling out they switches and putting in new ones (a keycap puller is included). Both Gateron Brown (tactile with soft click) and Gateron Red (linear with no click) options are on sale. There are even MX-style stabilizers on the larger keys like the space bar, left shift, backspace, and enter keys.

The K7 connects via your choice of Bluetooth 5.1 wireless or wired with a simple slider control. The Bluetooth connection allows you to pair with up to 3 different devices simultaneously. It's also refreshing to see an inexpensive keyboard do away with the again Micro USB connection. The K7 uses a USB Type-C connection (with cable included) for your hard-wired needs.

These keycaps are standard ABS instead of the more premium PBT double-shot. You can buy a replacement set of PBT double-shot keys on the Keychron website for $30. Low profile Gateron mechanical and Keychron optical switches are also available.

Honestly, you won't find another keyboard with all of these specific features at this price. This is an outstanding value and that's what Keychron is known for. If a low-profile mechanical keyboard is what you're looking for, there are few options that are better. At only $50, I would rather pick this over a budget keyboard from one of the well-known gaming brands.

Who is Keychron?

Keychron might not be as well known amongst the gamers compared to brands like Razer, Corsair, Logitech, or SteelSeries, but Keychron is actually the keyboard I personally use. They offer a huge range of keyboards with features that you'd normally only find from boutique keyboard manufacturers like pre-lubed hot-swappable mechanical keys and internal gaskets for improved sound profile, and stabilizers for more uniform keypress feel, on top of "basic" premium features like PBT doubleshot keycaps, south-facing RGB LEDs, solid and heavy metal chassis, Bluetooth and wired dual connectivity, and more. If you're unwilling to jump into the rabbit hole of diy-ing your own modded custom keyboard, Keychron is pretty much the next best thing.
