Keychron has introduced the B11 Pro foldable portable keyboard, adding a new compact option to its lineup focused on mobility and cross-platform compatibility. The Keychron B11 Pro features a flat Alice layout designed to provide a more natural typing angle compared to traditional horizontal keyboard designs. The layout separates the key clusters slightly to reduce wrist strain during long typing sessions, making it suitable for office users, remote workers, and students who need a lightweight travel keyboard.
The B11 Pro comes with an inward-folding design that protects the keys when the device is closed. Its main body is built from ABS material, while the rear panel is finished in matte black PU leather. This construction keeps the overall weight down to 258 grams, allowing the keyboard to fit easily into backpacks or laptop sleeves. The folding mechanism also enables automatic power-off when closed and automatic power-on when unfolded, helping conserve battery life during travel.
Instead of mechanical switches, the Keychron B11 Pro uses scissor-switch keys. These switches are paired with concave ABS keycaps intended to improve finger positioning and typing accuracy. The low-profile structure is aimed at users who prefer a laptop-style typing feel. The keyboard supports macOS, Windows, and Linux, making it compatible with a wide range of desktops, laptops, and mobile devices.
Connectivity is handled through tri-mode support, including USB-C wired, 2.4GHz wireless, and Bluetooth 5.3. The keyboard delivers a dual 1kHz polling rate in both wired and 2.4GHz wireless modes, ensuring responsive input performance for productivity tasks and general computing. Bluetooth mode allows pairing with multiple devices, such as tablets and smartphones, making it practical for multi-device setups.
The built-in 250mAh battery is rated for up to 138 hours of usage on a single charge, depending on connection mode and usage patterns. Keychron states that the keyboard can operate within a temperature range of -10°C to +50°C, covering typical indoor and travel environments.
The Keychron B11 Pro foldable keyboard is priced at $64.99, positioning it as an affordable portable solution for users seeking an ergonomic layout, wireless flexibility, and compact design in one device.
