Flow84 Low Profile Mechanical Keyboard, 75 Percent Rechargeable Wireless Keyboards with Bluetooth and Wired Connection for Windows, Mac OS/Black Phantom Tactile Switches

As someone that owns/collects keyboards, this one stands out in the crowd. It has to do with the feel and sound of this very small keyboard, it has no right to feel and sound like it does for it's size. It sounds and feels like a bigger, more expensive keyboard. The sound and feel has been described as a "creamy" typing experience, and I have to agree. Very smooth, very quiet, and just feels amazing to type on. A rare achievement in a keyboard of this size. It reminds me a bit of some of the smaller Keychron K series, only smoother even. Now is it perfect? Nah. I didn't care for the tactile, or the linear switches. They do offer a clicky switch, but...not installed in the keyboard. So if you are a fan of clicky switches, you will have to do as I did, and purchase them separately. So once you add up the price of the keyboard (it is not cheap!) AND the additional 90 key pack of clicky key switches (it is hot swap!), you are talking about a pretty expensive venture into a small keyboard. Was it worth it? For me, yeah. For sure. It is a unique keyboard, that I have no keyboard that matches it for typing experience for it's size. Now, that said, if you are more mainstream, and like tactile or even silent linear switches, they have your number....IF you like the color choices they give you. By that, I mean you can get tactile switches, IF you like a black keycap keyboard. If you want linear switches, you have one choice; white keycaps. Why they limit the choices like this is a mystery to me. I even wrote them, and they say basically, that is what we offer. Period. I was looking into a full size, 100 key version, and if I wanted clicky (Wizard) switches, I'd have to buy TWO packs of switches, since they come only in packs of 90. Come on, Lofree, where are our options!? All this said, this is, in my opinion, the Rolls Royce of typing experience in this size keyboard, period. At least for stock keyboards. And they know it.

I’ve had over 20 different mechanical keyboards over the past 8+ years. I’ve built my own, and spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars on different keyboards over this time. I was in the market for a low profile keyboard (granted this is the first one I’ve ever purchased), but I have to say that I’m blown away by how exceptional this one feels and sounds to type on. I originally opted for the black (tactile) switches as I thought the shine-through problem wasn’t present with the backlight, but sure enough it is but only noticeable when my room is dark. This is not a deal breaker for me, and considering I got the keyboard for $130 on a Black Friday sale, I still think this board provides great value and a fantastic typing experience for the price. In terms of feel, and overall build quality I believe this keyboard has one of the best typing experiences over any other keyboard I’ve had previously. (My previous board was an Aula F75, I’ve tried keychron boards with custom switches and hand lubing, Glorious etc) I understand why many of those who are reviewing this product are not happy with the backlight issue, but I understand from a manufacturing standpoint considering this is a relatively new company and the key caps are very thin. I personally just disable the backlight when my room is dark. Overall, I’m very happy with my purchase and would buy another again. If the backlight problem is a deal breaker, I would look into Numphy keyboards although I spent ~3 hours comparing this board to Numphy and the Lofree flow was a better fit for me.

This is an exceptional product, no doubt. Made for enthusiasts. Elite. Expensive. The size is perfect. Materials are premium. A few points — not necessarily cons, just notables: - The LED is basically non-existent. (I had the Redragon K662 Horus previously — that had real lighting.) - The keys (Phantom Black switches) are not silent at all. The sound is creamy and elegant (probably the best of low-profile keyboards), sure, but expect it to be relatively loud. Also, the actuation force is significant (despite the numbers) — you don’t just fly across the keys like on a laptop. You need to press with intent. - Make sure you know the key combination to change windows/mac keys layout. So it really depends on your preference. Personally, the typing feel is exactly what I wanted — and I enjoy it immensely.

I LOVE the size, quality build, and feel of these keyboards. The keycap material feels somehow silky and high-quality, and the key action is likewise appealing. But all THREE of the examples we've tried stopped working in less than an hour. They've been connected to an M1 and an M2 Macbook Pro. We use our keyboards with the cable, but I also turned on Bluetooth on the first two and paired them, tried them that way for a minute or so to make sure they worked, then switched Bluetooth off and plugged them back in. Everything was fine for ten or twenty minutes, but after a period of inactivity, they just refused to function when we resumed typing. The lighting stayed on but keyboard input never got to the screen. Today I plugged in the third keyboard (I bought another pair, hoping the first two were not representative), used it ONLY with the cable, never switching to Bluetooth and pairing it to a computer, and got the same result: worked fine for a short while, then I left the room for maybe half an hour, and the keyboard no longer worked when I returned. VERY frustrating. Bad batch of keyboards? Our Keychron keyboards still work fine, and of course the built-in keyboards on our Macbooks are also working. I suspect a bad chip in the Lowfree units, but whatever the cause, the Lowfrees are paperweights now. I'm not even going to unbox the fourth keyboard.

First time using a 'gasket' keyboard with 'POM" switches. I'm not sure if it's the gasket or the switches, but this is REALLY nice to type on. Would have been a huge plus to use keyboard caps where the translucent lettering was directly above backlighting provided by the switches.

Honestly, I have mixed feelings about this almost perfect keyboard. First, the sound is just delicious. My wife, who was working in the next room, actually asked if I was cracking my knuckles—nope, it was just the new keyboard I had just bought! The layout feels mostly right, except for the right Shift key. It's shorter to make room for the Up arrow key, and that throws me off when I try to use key combos involving the right Alt—I end up hitting the Up key instead. But hey, it’s just day one. A few days of use will probably fix that. Now, about the switches: I’m torn. The tactile feedback is quite subtle, especially after weeks of typing on HyperX Alloy Origins with clicky blues. That said, the Phantom switch does have a gentle tactile bump—it’s there, just not very pronounced. Still, it’s not a bad feeling at all, just different. Where this keyboard really shines is the aesthetics. The finish, the elegance, the materials—this thing is a work of art. Not only does it look amazing, but it’s a real pleasure to work on. I’m giving it a solid 9/10—definitely one of the best keyboards I’ve ever used. P.S.: No keyboard is perfect. Perfection in keyboards doesn’t exist. And maybe that’s part of the fun.

Dies consistently every 6 weeks or so. When you open it up it magically starts working again. Don't know if it's a short or what, but this is unacceptable for a keyboard this expensive.

good keyboard but they messed up the keycaps and gave me 2 f1 keys instead of a “1” key
