Magnetna stikala z Hallovim efektom

The K8 HE utilizes Hall Effect magnetic switches, which detect keypresses using magnetic sensors instead of physical contact. This design reduces wear and tear, offering enhanced durability and a smooth typing experience. These switches are hot-swappable, allowing for easy replacement without soldering.

    • Check the connection mode switch (2.4G, BT, Cable) and ensure it matches your connection method.
    • Pri brezžičnih načinih se prepričajte, da je tipkovnica napolnjena.
    • Try reconnecting the USB-C cable or re-pairing Bluetooth.
    • Ensure the OS switch is set correctly for your operating system.
  • Tipke se ne registrirajo ali tipkajo dvakrat:
    • This can sometimes be resolved by recalibrating the switches using the Keychron Launcher web aplikacija
    • Ensure switches are fully seated. If a switch is faulty, it can be hot-swapped.
