  Great keyboard, like the weight, it's literally immovable once placed on the table. Please note that it's not a low-profile one, might require a little getting used to it.

  This review is about the switches: Gateron G-Pro Brown

  Very good build quality. This is the first time I am trying brown switches and I have a small doubt if I made the right choice between blue and brown. However, this is not a "problem" of the keyboard. The only negative point is the fact that the keys are not transparent, so the lighting practically does not help at all in seeing which key you are pressing if you don't have light in the room at night. Overall, I am completely satisfied with this purchase and the price is quite good for a mechanical keyboard.

  This review is about the switches: Gateron G-Pro Brown

  - Very high quality and sturdy construction.
  - Very nice feel when typing (brown switches).
  - Supports Windows and Mac (the corresponding keycaps are included in the package).
  - Quality braided cable, which could be a bit longer.
  - Nice RGB lighting, which, however, does not shine through the keycaps.
  - No issues connecting via Bluetooth (does not support 2.4 GHz).

  This review is about the switches: Gateron G-Pro Brown

  One of the few "serious" premium professional keyboards on the market, aimed at individuals who have grown tired of flashy keyboards and are looking for a change to a top-quality keyboard that doesn't look "childish." Fantastic keyboard with an aluminum construction, and one can immediately notice the difference in use between this and more expensive brands like Razer, Corsair, etc., which primarily trade on name. Very heavy compared to other keyboards, which indicates build quality, also a very premium feel to the keys with a deep "thock." Very easy to configure via the QMK/Via open-source application in a browser environment. Finally, for me, the heavy, dysfunctional bloatware like Synapse and iCue are gone. It has both wired and wireless connectivity and is compatible with MacOS. I even connected it to my Android phone via Bluetooth for fun and primarily use it on macOS and Linux.

  The platform is extremely customizable, meaning you can replace anything, even the switches; I don't know why someone would do that, however, since they are premium and by far the best switches I've ever had. Satisfactory in click feedback but not noisy. This is definitely a keyboard you can bring to your workplace.

  For comparison, my previous keyboard was the Corsair K70 MK2 Rapidfire with "Silent" silver switches, which were anything but silent. The Silver switches are much less satisfying in click feedback but somewhat noisier, despite the fact that supposedly the Silver is one of the silent types. I had bought this keyboard for €190 a few years ago, and the build quality and user experience pale in comparison. Despite being a full-size keyboard compared to this, it is lighter and rattles when shaken, indicating lower build quality, while the K8 Pro feels like you're moving a solid brick.

  The difference in user experience compared to the K70 MK2 is night and day. To describe the gap between the two keyboards, I feel like I'm going from a bottom-tier keyboard to a flagship. The only thing that bothers me is that although it has backlight illumination, it doesn't have shine-through key caps, so in the dark, nothing is visible. I don't particularly use it in the dark, and it doesn't bother me, but if I did, I would simply change the key caps.

  There are so many things to say about this keyboard; I could literally talk for hours about it, but I always feel like I've forgotten to mention something. It truly is an end-game keyboard for enthusiasts. One could spend hundreds on a custom keyboard with the most premium materials as some do, but still, I don't know to what extent they would achieve higher build quality than the K8 Pro. It's not just value for money, but perhaps the best keyboard on the market right now, and on par with other counterparts from other "niche" brands like Ducky that cost double or more.
