you don't use a hub? How does the mouse and keyboard work?
They were connected via bluetooth. In my latest setup I do use the Caldigit TS4: ua-cam.com/video/kLlhv0rr_iE/v-deo.html
Is concave keycaps was originally made by Logitech? If yes then is the B1 copying it?
I think concave keys have been used by other keyboards, Logitech have just been using them for a while with the mx keys
Hi regarding Gaming since this keyboard does not have a Nkey rollover support, how many keys can you press before it stops detecting the succeeding keys being pressed? For example when playing FPS games where you have to hold SHIFT + W + A or D then sometimes Spacebar to jump or E or Q to use skills/items can it still detect all those presses at the same time?
i think the only way i can use a non backlit keyboard is if it's specifically for me to leave in my office where the lighting is almost always bright.. at home, i must have a back lit keyboard.. so if i were to buy the B1, i'll just leave it at my office
i see your screen at use with cable and all my questions for OS are done 😅, thanks so much for the video 👍
I’m glad you found the video useful!
@@colinkilday really helpful it get my next keyboard at the time my coolermaster sk630 lp tkl is 100% dead :D
Refreshing to see someone not raving about an overpriced grovemade shelf they were gifted. Only thing I'd say is the chair is worth the price of an upgrade. Probably the most important part of the setup when you consider your posture and health.
I get it’s not the best chair in the world but I still really like it and I do find it comfy, I might consider another chair in the future though if I can find one I like
does the keyboard tray get in the way of your legs when sitting in the ideal sitting position? Also do you think I can fit a Mac mini underneath the shelf? The measurements on the site doesn't show the space underneath the tray once slotted into the shelf
A Mac mini should fit underneath the shelf and I’ve not found that the drawer gets in the way of your legs when sitting
After a month of extensive research on mice and testing the MX Master 3s, I have to say that the MX Master is highly overpriced and not worth it. It looks terrible after just a year of use, and if you’re a designer, programmer, or anyone who relies heavily on a mouse, you’ll likely need to buy a new one every year. The polling rate of 125Hz on the MX Master 3s is comparable to a $5 mouse from Walmart, making it inaccurate and causing significant fatigue when pointing at objects. A true productivity mouse should have a polling rate of at least 1000Hz, which provides real comfort for long hours of precise pointing and cursor tracking. With a 1000Hz polling rate, you won’t experience headaches, migraines, or the negative effects of blue light exposure, such as blurry vision, eyestrain, dry eyes, macular degeneration, and cataracts. While the MX Master 3s and Keychron M6 are similar in terms of ergonomic grip, with the MX Master 3s slightly ahead, the Keychron M6 still achieves about 90% of the grip comfort. However, when considering the overall comfort for your brain and health with a 1000Hz polling rate, the choice is clear. The Keychron M6 will help you feel more relaxed during long hours of work, allowing your muscle memory to take over, which reduces strain on your eyes and brain, enabling you to focus and engage in deep work for longer periods, like 4-5 hours. In contrast, with a low-polling-rate mouse like the MX Master, distractions and discomfort can set in after just one hour of use.
Hi bro, I just received this keyboard as a gift and I had no idea about it, your video helped me solve many doubts, thank you, by the way,the sound of the keyboard is sweet
Thanks! I’m glad the video was helpful!
👍👍 That wave keyboard at the beginning looks sweet 🌊
Why no sound test 😭😭
great review- the Keychron is definitely up my alley. I'm thinking a direct rival to the B1 pro would be a Macally compact keyboard? similar price. but i suspect the keychron might be better built.
Thanks! I can’t say that I’ve ever used the Macally compact keyboard but I suspect keychron are going to provide a lot of competition to different brands who offer a similar style of compact keyboard
I have both and I prefer the keychron b1 pro (ivory color) over the mx mini. I was wondering if the bar (where blutooth-2.4gz switch is attached) in the space gray color was also a plastic or not, but it seems it is. For me, typing experience on the b1 pro is nicer than mx keys or even than apple magic keyboard. But yeah, it looks pretty cheap 😅 but when i type, i dont look at the keyboard itself, so it should be fine. Thanks for your review !
So the bottom (gray color) is a plastic as well?
Yeah the whole case is plastic: m.ua-cam.com/video/zChsODjeCNc/v-deo.html
MX Master feels great in your hand, but it breaks really easily. I've gone through 3 MX Master models in the past 2 years. One had double click after 2 months of usage, another one just stopped moving after about 12 months, and on the last one after about 6 months the thumb button is broken, i.e. if you put your thumb where it's supposed to rest it reads it as a button press. Very unfortunate. Looking forward to trying out keychron m6.
I do really like the Keychron M6, I’ve also got the Mx Master but thankfully not had any issues with it
Thanks for the comparison.
Australia paying 150 per hour 😂
Finally, Logitech gets some decent competition in this segment.
Medical student here. I'll take a moment to praise the transparency of your videos. Genuinely, helps me plan out my career path. I've definitely shared this with my friends!
I’m glad you found the video helpful and thank you for sharing it!
Have you played on it? Do shooters feel slow to respond?
I’ll be honest I tend not to use this keyboard for gaming
oh, this english is so british =)
Weird that you don't have the Lofree Flow in the list. Best keyboard of 2024 by a mile (Flow version with Ghost switches) and lightyears better than the crap in this video.
It was literally a review of the keyboards I own, given I don’t own the lowfree flow I wasn’t exactly going to review it…
i have the k380 and i'm considering this keyboard because i don't really like the feel of k380
Hi! Thanks for the review and comparison! Can you tell me what the keyboard at 5:52 is? It looks great and caught my attention
Seems like a NuPhy air75 V2
It’s the NuPhy Air 75 V2: m.ua-cam.com/video/6HE1drzdSf8/v-deo.html
Keychron b1 pro doesn't have the dome shaped keys but other wise it looks really good!
Oh my goodness, I take it back, they have the dome shaped also
It does sort of have some shaped keys but they’re just not as obvious as the Mx Keys
In Mac: M6 > MX. Connection is everything
No Backlight!! 😢😢😢 I would definitely buy it if it was backlit
I think a lot of people are going to be thinking the same thing
What about the Desk itself ?
The desk itself is a kitchen countertop and I’ve attached it to Flexispot E8 desk legs
Great video brother I love it very underrated quality video
Thanks!
@@colinkilday ye bro
I just bought one to for around $140 and it coming soon can't wait
I particularly like the gradient keycaps with the side legends that come with it
I'm subbingni love this
I can say nothing about MX keys. But don't buy keychron keyboard if you are interested in anything other than typing. It doesn't work for most 3-key combinations.
I think it’s predominantly aimed at those who just want a relatively cheap keyboard for typing/office work but also want some customisation options
@@colinkilday but not for code, i had to change a few hotkey combinations because the keys didn't work together. i agree that they weren't the ones i used most often, but that doesn't mean i don't need them...
@@insar21could you elaborate? I’m a programmer and considering picking up a b1 pro but because you said this, I’m reconsidering it. Could you explain more?
this needs more likes, this was my main reason for checking a review
@@blogerboy1 sorry, i don't ususally check youtube comments. This keyboard does not have NKRO. Which keys will work together depends on the design decisions of the manufacturer. On this keyboard modifier keys work independently of the letter keys and there are no problems with them. But the letter keys can be unpredictable. For example, when you press W + D + E, either W + D or W + E will work, depending on what you press first (similarly for W + A + Q). Since the keyboard is thin, you can press several keys with one finger, which could be convenient, but in this case it can be even worse. For example, when you press W + E + S simultaneously, the presses will not be registered at all. Same for WED/WAQ etc. So it depends on what combinations you need.
Is it worth to invest in m6?
If you’re looking for a new mouse, I’d say it is
@@colinkilday thanks
I definitely got that instead of the MX Key Mini. The backlight is not my concern. I always turn off rgb on any of my keyboard anyways.
If you’re not fussed about the backlighting the B1 pro is a good choice and it’s good value for money
Wow
I can vouch for the obvious quality difference (MX feels better), however B1 software is a Web app that doesn't need to stay running, which is amazing for locked-down work computers. Also B1 supports wired mode, but MX keys doesn't.
Although the Mx Keys is a higher quality keyboard, I also find it difficult to justify why it’s over double the price of the B1 Pro
@@colinkilday Logitech has been able to charge whatever they want in the space because there has been no competitor until now. (and even still their market dominance gives them a lot of control)
suc a transparent and good chart. thanks dr
Thanks!
No backlit is a NO for me
I think not having backlighting will put quite a few people off
Then don't buy it? This keyboard is for people who say "no qmk is a no for me"
beeen waiting for this video. the B1 pro is out of stock and will be restocked in August. waiting to pick it up
Sorry for the delay uploading it! It’s definitely worth trying the keyboard simply because of its relatively low price point
@@colinkilday I bought the Logitech Mx Keys Mini. I'm thinking of using both and doing a video
back in stock now last I checked
@@CuriuosKoala thank you
Great review and comparison. I believe this is the first proper UA-cam review in English about the keyboard. Keep the good work 👍🏼
Thanks I’m glad you like the review! 😃
Finally a video comparison! Which one do you think is better? Logi k380 or the b1 pro? The k380 is actually cheaper where I Live. Thanks
I personally don’t like the design of the K380 so I’d prefer the B1 Pro. It just depends on your preference though
I have ordered mine and can't wait for it to get delivered. I paid a total of $81 including delivery fee.
