When it comes to the C3 Pro, the fully-assembled keyboard only gives you the choice of switching the color of the Enter, Esc, and Space keys between red and black. You have the option of using Keychron’s red or brown switches, with the red switches providing a typing experience that is less audible and the brown switches providing a typing experience that is more tactile.
The legends etched into the double-shot ABS keycaps of this keyboard are lighted by red LEDs that face north. The backlighting is provided by this keyboard. The C3 Pro, unlike the larger C2 Pro, does not come equipped with hot-swappable switches, which is something you may have previously anticipated. Although the lack of hot-swappability is a letdown, Keychron points out that the C3 Pro can still be a frugal toy for developers or enthusiasts because it employs a “high-performance” ARM Cortex-M4 32-bit architecture and has 256K Flash.
[content-egg-block template=offers_logo hide=price]This is despite the fact that the C3 Pro does not support hot-swappability. Because the C3 Pro has a design that incorporates a gasket-mounted layout, the entire typing experience will be less noisy and more fluid for you. The entry-level keyboard that Keychron offers may still be used for gaming because it has a polling rate of 1,000Hz, which results in little latency even for the most competitive games.

Where to get Keychron C3 Pro?
The C3 Pro has adjustable feet to improve height, toggles between macOS and Windows modes, and, although it does not have RGB lighting, it does have red LED backlighting with 14 different settings. These additions bring the total number of functions available on the C3 Pro to 10. The keys have legends that shine through, which means that light may travel through them, and they are manufactured out of double-shot ABS, which makes them very sturdy. Additionally, the keys have shine-through legends.
The only feature that is missing from this setup is hot-swappable switches; you are unable to replace the switches that are already installed on this board with others of your choosing. That is not a significant absence taking into account what the C3 Pro is, and taking into consideration the rest of the features as well as the design of the gasket-mounted construction, you are getting an incredible deal here.
