Switch

Keychron Milk POM Switch

Crafted with advanced self-lubricating POM and POK materials, the Keychron Milk POM Switch delivers an impressively smooth feel right out of the box and becomes even smoother over time with every keystroke. Pre-lubed for added consistency, it delivers a deeper, more resonant thock in a low-profile design, it offers a refined and reliable typing experience across linear Red and tactile Brown or Banana switch options.

Powerful ARM Core - An Epic Core Inside

A powerful ARM-architecture MCU equipped with 1 MB of flash provides more flexibility for developers. The polling rate is 8000 Hz in 2.4 GHz and wired modes right out of the box, making latency hardly noticeable, even in competitive games.

Elevated Typing Experience - Interior Acoustic Foam

The K5 Ultra 8K features a carefully engineered acoustic structure with IXPE acoustic foam, EPDM foam, PET film, and bottom case foam. Working together, these premium materials effectively reduce unwanted resonance and vibrations, delivering a cleaner, more refined typing sound and a more satisfying typing experience.

Customise

Customise Every Part

To build a fully customisable keyboard, Keychron designed every component to be easy to assemble. Therefore, you can customise and adjust each component as you wish.

Keycaps

The K5 Ultra's low-profile double-shot PBT keycaps provide excellent oil resistance while preventing the legends from fading over time.

Polymer Frame

The K5 Ultra 8K pairs natural wood with a precision metal frame, balancing natural elegance with modern, high-performance craftsmanship.

Switches

Switches are the core mechanical components; different types (linear/tactile) offer unique feel and sound.

Plate

The plate in a keyboard secures switches in place, provides structural support, and influences typing feel and sound.

Sound-Absorbing Foam

The sound-absorbing foam (latex foam) can help dampen echo and unwanted noise when typing, providing a clean sound.

IXPE Foam & Pet Film

The IXPE foam reduces keystroke vibration and optimises typing sound, while the PET film provides insulation and dust protection.

PCB

The circuit board that registers keystrokes; hot-swappable versions allow easy switch changes.

Bottom Case Acoustic Foam

The bottom case acoustic foam effectively dampens vibrations and minimises hollow sounds, providing a softer, more cushioned typing experience.

EPDM Foam

This soft foam helps reduce vibration and noise and provides a cushioned typing feel.

Bottom Case

A durable bottom case helps reduce resonance and keeps the keyboard slim, stable, and comfortable for everyday use.

Hot-Swappable

Since everyone has unique typing preferences, the K5 Ultra features a hot-swappable design. You can easily swap out every Keychron Milk POM switch in seconds to customise your experience—no soldering required.

Wood Meets Metal

The K5 Ultra 8K blends warm natural wood accents with a slim, precision-built low-profile body, creating a refined look that feels modern, minimal, and performance-ready. The contrast of warm wood texture and sleek metal craftsmanship delivers a premium balance of natural beauty and modern performance.
