A: The battery is internal and charges using a USB-C port.
Q: is the cable usb c to usb c or usb c to usb a? is the receiver also usb c?
A: The cable is USB-C to USB-A. The receiver dongle is USB-A and comes with an adapter to use a USB-C cable for it too.
Q: Is the keyboard programmable to display 1 color if desired as well as multi colors?
A: Yes! There are 25 pre-programmed color effects, all of which can be customized in the "keychron launcher," which is an HTML-/web-based launcher that recognizes your keyboard and allows you to change rhythms, colors, effects, macros, the HE switches, everything. I really like some of the light patterns like the candy rain.

Ive had some time to spend with this keyboard and so far its been solid. The sound is also top tier compared to the many other keyboards ive bought before. Theres very little that compares to building your own board to get an even better sound. But right out of the box and prebuilt, this sounds thocky and smooth. I game on fps like battlefield 6 and graphic design in adobe illustrator. Butter smooth for each application. The hall effect switches are worth it for gaming. Theres nothing that stops the keys from turing shiny especially when playing fps games. But i dont mind that really. The RGB is lowkey and ambient. And finally thr build quality is 10/10 wood grain and aluminum case sides are unique.

I've been bouncing around a couple keyboards trying to find one I really like. I spent a long time with silver "speed" switches which have a really short activation travel and I think I just really like that style of typing because you can basically customize this keyboard to act just like that and I really love it. Setup was pretty simple. Plug in the keyboard and it should just work. I'll just add a little anecdote of my own that might help someone in the future. Since this keyboard doesn't have a wrist rest and my last one did, I decided to just slap the old wrist rest in front of this keyboard. I failed to remember that the old wrist rest "attached" to the keyboard with magnets, which aren't the best things to place around a hall effect keyboard. So I spent some time trying to figure out why certain keys weren't working or were firing randomly because I understood what the magnets were doing. Don't do what I did. Keep the magnets away from this keyboard. After getting the magnet situation sorted out, everything worked really well. There is a "helper" app that you can download that assists with launching applications from hotkeys if you want, but almost all of the setup and customization of the keyboard is done via a web application. No need to install anything to use OR customize the keyboard. This is a HUGE win in my book because it feels like every device now will work fine without an app but as soon as you want to change or customize anything, you're going to need that app running 24/7. You get asked to download a generic "driver" that helps connect to the keyboard and that's it. But if you use Firefox, you'll need to use Chrome or Brave (or any other Chromium based browser) to use the app. You can customize pretty anything you can think of for keyboards. Because it's hall effect, you can set the activation travel distance for every single key. If you want everything to activate really quick, you can do that. If you want to press the ESC key harder than all the other keys for some reason, you can do that. Settings up macros and rebinding keys is all doable straight from the app and the only time you need to use the "helper" app is if you're trying to launch other applications. As far as the hall effect nature of this keyboard, you can also customize your keys to find to analog gamepad inputs so you have actual analog control of your keys. Sadly, this just simulates a gamepad and you have to set up the keyboard to your liking beforehand (there is a preset "Gamepad" setting that sets this up for you if you're fine with their settings). I'd really love it if keyboards started presenting the ability to be analog to the system and any key could be set up in game to support analog movements. Imagine still having your WASD keys available but when you're driving in GTA, you can steer with analog controls automatically. As it stands, the keyboard translates "key" presses as digital on and off when it gets passed to the OS unless they're set up as a gamepad input. Lighting has a lot of preset effects. You'll probably be fine with the offerings available. If you're coming from a corsair or similar keyboard with ultra lighting customization, you might feel like you're limited. I would love to see the ability to layer lighting effects so you can stack things as well as being able to set different effects for any number of groups of keys (currenty, you were only able to fully customize two different sets of keys). Being able to overlap, layer and create as many sets of keys as we want would open up the lighting options so much. As is, the lighting is mostly just the couple dozen effects you'd find anywhere. Typing feels really good to me. I set all of my keys to activate after 1mm and it really feels like my old "speed" switches. If you're looking for bumpy clicks, this isn't for you. This is a linear keyboard. The weight and feel of the keyboard in general also feels very nice and not cheap. It's also always nice to have a numpad again. I've been using the keyboard wired but there's also options for bluetooth or their own wireless dongle. The dongle even comes with an extension cord so you can move it to be closer to the keyboard so it maintains a great connection without any interference. There is also a switch to move between Windows/Android and Mac/iOS so you can make sure you maintain full compatibility with whatever system you're connecting to. Bottom line, I'm a big fan of this keyboard. Loving the hall effect feel and how customizable everything is. I could do with some more options for customizing the lighting but I'm fine with most of their defaults. If you're in the market for a new keyboard, you want something a little different, and you're OK with linear switches, give this a look.

I have to be honest, this is my first Keychron keyboard, and I've had/used LOADS of different keyboards. I'm usually into the firm ultra clicky "blue switch" style keyboards, but I may have been converted by this K10 HE. I honestly thought I wouldn't like the soft-ish linear switches as much as others, but this Keychron is so buttery smooth, and even when I type fast, the click is still there, but just muted. (if you want a premium keyboard to use in a cubicle, look at this unit, your nearby coworkers will thank you for this one vs something ultra clicky) When you open the box, you know you're dealing with a solid, premium product. My only gripe is that I had to swap on Windows keys, like it came out of the box with the Mac keys installed...This is supposedly marketed as a gaming keyboard, and everyone knows you can't game on Mac's (/s) The ability to run in Windows specific mode with just a switch is great, plus it works wirelessly with the included dongle, or via Bluetooth which is always welcome. The RGB is noticeable but very muted, which makes sense given the brand, the wood looking trim doesn't scream "gamer" at all. This keyboard didn't make me any better at video games, but I sure enjoy losing while using it!
