FAQs

How do I switch between 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth modes?

You can typically switch between modes using dedicated function key combinations. Refer to your Keychron B1 Pro manual for the exact keybinds, usually involving Fn + a number key for Bluetooth pairings or Fn + another key for 2.4 GHz mode.

Are the switches included with the keyboard?

No, the Gateron switches are sold separately. This allows you to choose the switches that best suit your typing preference.

How long does the battery last?

The keyboard offers approximately 8 months of battery life with typical usage (e.g., 5 hours per day) on a single charge, thanks to its 800 mAh LiPo battery.

Yes, you can use the keyboard while it is connected via USB-C for charging, allowing for uninterrupted usage.

What is the polling rate of the Keychron B1 Pro?

The Keychron B1 Pro supports both 90 Hz and 1000 Hz polling rates, with 1000 Hz available for high-performance use cases like gaming.

How do I remap keys or create macros?

Is the silicone skin washable?

Yes, the included protective silicone skin is washable. Use mild soap and water, and ensure it is completely dry before placing it back on the keyboard.

Troubleshooting

Keyboard not connecting via 2.4 GHz

Ensure the USB receiver is securely plugged in. Try a different USB port. Restart your computer. Verify the keyboard is within range of the receiver.
