A QMK-programmable TKL that runs on Bluetooth 5.2 — open-source firmware and no cable, which is a rare pairing.
Quick Specs
- 87-key 80% TKL layout
- Keychron Super Red linear mechanical switches
- Bluetooth 5.2 or USB-C wired
- N-key rollover with a 1000Hz polling rate
- 22 RGB backlight options, hot-swappable PCB
Wireless with real programmability
Wireless keyboards usually give up customisation — you get whatever layout the vendor decided on. The K8 V2 runs QMK with VIA support, so every key is remappable and macros and layers are yours to define, and it does that over Bluetooth 5.2 rather than only when plugged in. Switch to USB-C when you want a wired link or to charge. For a desk with a Mac and a PC, or a laptop that moves, that combination is the reason to pick this over a wired board.
The feel and the layout
Keychron's Super Red switches are linear — a smooth travel with light actuation force and no tactile bump or audible click, so they suit shared spaces and fast repeated inputs equally. N-key rollover at 1000Hz polling means every simultaneous press registers reliably. The 87-key TKL layout keeps the function row and arrow cluster while dropping the numpad, which is the balance most people settle on between desk space and completeness. Twenty-two RGB backlight modes are selectable on the board.

Questions
Before you buy
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
