Our take, based on research

A low-profile wireless QMK 75% known only from maker specs and comparison listings.

Overview

The J1 is a low-profile wireless 75% in Keychron's J line. Keychron's page lists Keychron low-profile mechanical switches with hot-swap sockets, low-profile double-shot PBT keycaps, 2.4GHz, Bluetooth and wired with 1000Hz polling, QMK and the Keychron Launcher, 22 backlight effects, 661 g, a 2000 mAh battery and a 327 x 144 mm footprint. Keeb-finder's comparison with the K3 Pro lists the J1 as an ANSI board with sound dampening and a 2000 mAh battery, sized 23 x 327 x 144 mm. No independent typing review turned up, so how it feels and sounds is not covered here.
