FAQs

How do I switch between connected devices?

In Bluetooth mode, press 'fn' + '1', 'fn' + '2', or 'fn' + '3' to cycle through paired devices. For 2.4GHz mode, simply plug in the receiver. For wired mode, use the USB-C cable.

What is the battery life and how long does it take to charge?

The keyboard offers up to 1200 hours of use on a single charge. A full charge takes approximately 2.5 hours via USB-C.

Can I use the keyboard while it's charging?

Yes, the Keychron B1 Pro can be used while it is connected via USB-C for charging, ensuring uninterrupted operation.

How do I customize key functions or create macros?

You can customize key functions, create macros, and set up shortcuts using the Keychron Launcher web app, available online.

Does the keyboard have backlighting?

No, the Keychron B1 Pro does not feature backlighting. This is a design choice to maximize battery life and maintain its ultra-slim profile.

Is the silicone key skin necessary for operation?

The silicone key skin is optional but recommended for protection against spills, dust, and wear, and can also enhance typing comfort for some users. The keyboard functions perfectly without it.

What is the difference between Bluetooth and 2.4GHz modes?

Bluetooth mode allows connection to up to three devices simultaneously and is ideal for general use and compatibility. 2.4GHz mode offers a higher polling rate (1000 Hz) for a faster, more responsive connection, suitable for tasks requiring lower latency, like gaming.

Does it come with a USB receiver?

Yes, the Keychron B1 Pro includes a dedicated USB receiver for the 2.4GHz wireless connection.

Troubleshooting

Keyboard not connecting in 2.4GHz mode

Ensure the USB receiver is properly plugged in. Try a different USB port. Make sure the keyboard switch is set to '2.4G' and the keyboard is charged. Re-pair by pressing and holding 'fn' + '1' (or whichever key is designated for 2.4G pairing if applicable) for 3 seconds.

Bluetooth connection is unstable or dropping

Ensure the keyboard is within range of the device. Check that the keyboard battery is sufficiently charged. Turn off other Bluetooth devices that might be causing interference. Re-pair the keyboard by deleting it from your device's Bluetooth list and pairing again.

Keys are not responding or acting erratically

Check the battery level. Ensure the keyboard is not in sleep mode (press any key to wake). Try connecting via USB cable to see if the issue persists. If problems continue, consider resetting the keyboard or remapping keys via Keychron Launcher.

Charging issues

Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the keyboard and a power source. Try a different USB-C cable and power adapter. Check the USB-C port for any debris.
