put the rubber ring that will dampen the sound.
however if your keychron supports the hotswap get the silent red switch from AliX.

I agree. I broke two Logitech and one Dell sh!tty keyboard the company gave me and after broke them had the IT department to source me the southpaw mechanical keyboard as part of OHS policy. π

This is my keyboard I use at the office. π
after breaking two Logitech silent rubber dome keyboards I asked our IT department to purchase this keyboard from a firm in UK.

My office keyboard has the genuine Cherry MX Brown with SA keycaps although it's rather ordinary looking retro IBM beige. π

Looks fabulous!
Sadly I won't be able to use it on my office keyboard even if I get 'em.

freshly roasted at the local shop every morning and grinded for the double shot and extracted as espresso at home. with the golden crema on top it's simply delicious and great way to start a day I'd say! π
no need a good cup. Just an ordinary double walled espresso cup will do just fine!

you don't understand how much of travel your right hand does when you a lot of Excel work. The reason I got on the southpaw was that my right wrist started complained with mild pain to excruciating pain in short time. π
southpaw keyboard helped a lot along with the wrist guard that has in-built steel plate to fix my right wrist in place.

Yes like you said that R3 has no top or bottom orientation.

> itβs just wasd unless you hold function then itβs arrows.
did the same trick with the old IBM keyboard.
it seems people just can't get their head around that 2/4/6/8 are cursor key and 9/3 are PgUp/PgDn and 7 as Home and 1 as End keys - when the NumLock light is off.
(Remember on the old IBM keyboard there are no dedicated cursor keys and other function keys.) π€£

if that's the case the keyboard would disappear from the desk and miraculously appear on someone else's desk. π

probably few days? π
I was worried since this keyboard has the ISO layout but surprisingly it didn't take long to get used to the smaller left SHIFT key as well as \ key moved to left of Enter key. :)

Not necessarily. I put the rubber o-rings and they arent that loud. Comparable to the laptop keyboard or Logitec silent keyboard when others are banging at 'em. (I did and now I have this keyboard)

It has the Cherry brown so it's not dead silent but with the rubber o-ring mod it's pretty quiet almost as quite as that sh!tty Logitec silent keyboard they issued and a lot of us break 'em in few weeks' time bashing their weak rubber dome

there have been a few over the year. I saw few examples while I was in S. Korea and Japan back in 90s. And those were the business oriented keyboards just like the old IBM keyboard - boring beige with grey keycaps on probably the Alps switches.
This one's also business oriented with no bells and whistles but just the Cherry MX switches and black (boring) keycaps. Even the cable is non-detachable.

I'd prefer the full size southpaw in ISO layout without any bells and whistle. π
