Womier Low Profile Keycaps - Shine Through Keycaps 60 65 75 100 Percent, Keyboard Key caps PBT Full Size for Cherry Gateron MX Switches Mechanical Keyboard, Grey/White

I've gone down this rabbit hole recently of trying to find the perfect keyboard. I ended up really liking the Royal Kludge RK84 with mechanical blue switches (I am a heavy typist, programmer/IT pro) except for one thing... the keycaps were WAY WAY too tall. Instead of sending it back, I decided I would keep the keyboard and get a set of low profile keycaps. Enter these... They came really nicely packaged in a two-layer tray that was laid out like a keyboard would be. There were keys for anything I could imagine needing (different sized Alt/CTRL/Function keys for different keyboard layouts, etc.). The finish is matte with just a little bit of texture. Overall feel is 4/5 (I prefer the soft-touch feel of my keychrons a little better). I had no problems whatsoever installing these and the fit was perfect. My keyboard has north-facing LEDs so shine-through is adequate, although some of the larger legends (Caps/shift) aren't completely uniform. Not enough of an issue to bother me. Again, 4/5. There is no legend for media keys or any of the specific shortcut functions for my keyboard (of course). While I think this makes for a really nice, clean look, you're going to have to refer to your keyboard manual for anything other than standard use. I don't tend to use media keys, and I've memorized the important shortcut functions (like connecting my keyboard to a different device) so it isn't a big deal to me. YMMV. I'm a big fan of the profile and the typing experience is superb. Even though they sit a little higher on the key switches, you can see the huge difference in height in the pictures I provided. They have a nice wide crown with narrow shoulders that make it easy to get an accurate keypress without accidental activations. I did some objective measurements using the stock keycaps, these, and my Keychron K5 and K3 keyboards (both low-profile). These consistently produce the highest WPM and accuracy scores for me. Again, YMMV. Keyboards are extremely personal, but if you are looking for a low-profile keycap, I would absolutely recommend giving these a try. I only wish they came in more colors so I could customize a little bit (even if it did cost me an extra $20).

The keycaps feel great to type on, the tactile feel is smooth and pleasing. The sound is a pleasing echo that tends towards bass. The lower profile makes typing much more pleasing if you're into the lower profile. The colors are nice quality, I wish there were a bit more variations but you can't knock it for that. Using them on a Keychron Q3 HE. The south facing LEDs on that keyboard aren't great. There is still light bleed between the keycaps just because of the nature of south facing LEDs but the legends do light up but you really have to push up the brightness on the backlight to get the edge keycaps to shine through. In other words, its good enough for south facing LEDs.

These are TERRIFIC keycaps that I can easily recommend. I used them to replace the original Keychron LSA keys that came with my K3 Max low profile keyboard; as well as a set of Nuphy NSA shine-through keycaps. The Womier keys are quality double shot PBT with very sharp lettering and excellent shine through By contrast, the Nuphy keys are dye sublimated PBT; the key symbols are fuzzy and the shine through is washed out. I especially like the tables on the Womier keys. They have deep spherical tops, similar to SA keys, that snuggle my finger tips for better comfort and typing accuracy. By contrast the Nuphy NSA have very large shallow tops that easily catch finger nails causing miskeys. The Keychron beat the Nuphy for comfort but doesn't match the Womier for accuracy. That said, I wish Womier included common media symbols on their Function Keys. I switch between working on Mac and Windows machines and having media symbols clearly inscribed on the Function keys makes my life much more convenient. I ended up leaving the Nuphy Function keys on my keyboard specifically because Womier lacks media symbols. Lastly, the stems on the Womier keys fit loose on the Keychron stabs. I found that squeezing the stems with a pair of needle nose pliers tightens them up nicely. But for the above two nits, I would quickly give these keycaps 5 stars.

Do you have a low-profile Keychron K5 Max? Are you also frustrated Keychron never stocks the low-profile, shine-through keycaps for a keyboard with RGB back lighting, or just wanna customize? Have I got (almost) good news for you. I picked up the Gray set of these Womier caps simply wanting to have my backlit keyboard be back lit! The good: 1. The small, *single post* key caps fit nicely. 2. The key feel is very good and sound is similar. 3. These are north lit caps and the K5 is a north lit keyboard, so the shine through works very well! See photos. 4. They really give a full set of key caps, including options for the size and colors of different auxiliary keys, like different size and color return keys. Very nice. Some draw backs. These are not the fault of Womier, the Keychron caps are just different: 1. The wider caps are the right size, but any secondary posts are slightly too long. They work but make an unsatisfying click when you type on them as a result. This might be fixable by very carefully cutting down the secondary posts a little, but I didn't try. 2. The spacebar has a similar issue and does not sit or tap evenly as a result. 3. Minor: These caps run parallel to the board surface. The stock ones run in a stair step pattern and as a result these are slightly thicker at the north side of each cap than stock. See side photo where the white keys are these and the orange and gray are stock keychron. That said, I just swapped most of them to enjoy the back lighting as I like to dim the lights at night. For now I left all the top row keys which had special secondary symbols, and I left most of the large caps stock (as shown) so they actuate smoothly. The result is satisfying enough! Again, they feel great and the shine through is quite good. Will see if the bigger caps being not totally level motivates me to try trimming the Womier stems a bit. Overall I feel Womier is redeeming my keyboard with this one.

These low-profile keycaps are a decent option if you're specifically looking for a shorter keycap set, but they do have some trade-offs. I got them because I wanted a low-profile feel on my regular mechanical keyboard, and while they do deliver on that, there are some things to keep in mind if you're considering them. First, the shine-through legends are very crisp and bright, which is great if you use RGB lighting. The black and white color scheme is also really nice—it has a clean, modern look that works well with almost any keyboard. The contrast between the black and white makes the legends super easy to read, and since they’re doubleshot, there’s no risk of the lettering wearing off over time. If you want a set that lets your RGB shine while still looking sharp, this definitely works. As for the feel, they’re fine, but nothing mind-blowing. Since they’re shorter than regular keycaps, they make typing feel a little different, even on a standard mechanical board. I was expecting a lower profile, but the change in typing feel is more noticeable than I thought. They make the overall experience feel a little snappier since your fingers don’t have to travel as far, but they also remove some of the deep keypress sensation you get with taller profiles like Cherry or OEM. If you're coming from a standard keyboard, it might take a little getting used to. One thing to note is the sound profile. Because these are thinner than standard PBT keycaps, they don’t have that deep, solid sound you might expect from thicker caps. Instead, they produce a higher-pitched, somewhat hollow clack rather than a rich, deep thock. If you’re someone who really cares about sound, this might not be the best choice unless you have a keyboard with a dampened or gasket-mounted case that can help tone it down. On a louder board, these caps will emphasize higher frequencies, which might not be ideal. Another potential downside is the fit and compatibility. They work with standard MX-style switches, but since they’re low-profile, the key height difference can feel weird if you’re mixing them with normal keycaps. Also, because they’re shorter, they don’t feel as sculpted, so there’s less of a natural flow between rows compared to a typical keycap set. If you’re someone who relies on the sculpting of each row to guide your fingers, this set might feel a little flat. They're easy to put on so that's a plus and again they seems pretty durable. Overall, these low-profile keycaps are decent if you specifically want a shorter set with shine-through legends. They look great, they let RGB lighting shine through well, and they type fine, but they won’t give you the same depth or sound as a more traditional PBT set. If you’re after a snappier, more minimal feel, they’re a good option, but if you love a rich typing sound and deeper key presses, you might want to look at a thicker low-profile PBT set or an alternative profile like XDA or Cherry for a better balance.

I have the Lofree Flow Lite100 keyboard. The keyboard itself is great, but the keycaps that came with it were pretty boring and I found them hard to type on. I'm no super typist, but I usually do ok. With the OEM keycaps, I kept hitting multiple keys at a time (more than usual) and it was really frustrating. Yes, I know, learn to type better. I'm 52. My typing is as good as it's going to get. Anyway, I saw these keys and the color is a PERFECT match for the Lofree. They aren't super colorful, but at least they aren't all the same color making the keyboard completely monotone. It came with black accent keys as well, but I'm not using them. I like the lighter colors a little better. The Lofree already really sounded good, but IMO, these caps sound just a tiny bit better than OEM. They have a nice texture on them (see my photos). They are a tiny bit taller than either the Lofree OEM or Nuphy OEM, which I also tried. They even have duplicate corner caps for each that are more rounded than the normal caps. This also gives the keyboard a nice look (also, in my photos). The see thru legends are really sharp and look great. The best thing about them? My typing is somehow more accurate. I'm not sure if if it's because of the slightly taller caps which puts more space between the caps, or the texture, or both, but it's noticeable to me. I don't really have anything bad to say about these caps at all. If I could, I would like some different colored accent caps (esc, enter, space) included, but that is nitpicky. This keyboard looks, sounds, feels, and types awesome now. It looks OEM but better!

I just built my first custom keyboard, using a GMMK PRO barebones frame, silent black ink switches, and these Womier keycaps! I think these caps are awesome, I love the style and format, especially since I have decided I don't like tall, typical mechanical keycaps. The low profile nature of them is comfy and preferable to my fingies, and I think they just look good. They all fit well too on the keyboard ^-^ I will mention that the shine through is almost non-existent, using the GMMK PRO frame. But this is also an issue that is due to my lack of reading into things. I believe it actually mentions it in the product info, that north oriented LED's are ideal for these caps since the legend is on the upper part of the keycaps. Knowing this even now, I will still keep the caps and I do like them a lot, but it is something that everyone buying them should consider beforehand! In general, I would easily recommend these, especiallg for the price!

Great replacement caps for me Keychron K5 MAX. Only ran into one issue with the space bar, I can't for the lift of me get it to seat properly where it doesn't bind when pressed on either end, either you hit it dead center on the switch or it's getting stuck or not triggering the switch. All of the other keys fit and operate just fine. Overall, I am happy with this purchase even if my spacebar is still gray, this is a good product at a reasonable price.
