Product Description

The Drop CTRL High-Profile is just like the original CTRL, but now it comes with a tall CNC-aluminum case that covers the switches. Machined to be 6-degrees, the case is ergonomically crafted for a natural feel—and it’s quite a bit heavier than before Read More

It is 2023, we really need a version of this keyboard with additional wireless connectivity. The single reason I didn't pull the trigger during last drop is that missing feature.

Interference/noise being caused after using the keyboard configurator or setting a default lighting? I have a ugreen usb kvm/switch to connect to my personal pc and my work pc so I can use the same headset, keyboard, and mouse. After I used the keyboard configurator to set a new default color, and update to the modern firmware I now get a buzzing on both the mic and speakers of my header... But only if my keyboard the rgb is on. This was not present before made this change. Anyone have any idea?

After also contacting support, I got told there is nothing they can or will do. So I guess I am done buying from here. Even if the issue arises from them releasing software updates, their response is that anything out of warranty is not their problem anymore.

The right-side strip LEDs are flipped when I flash with configurator; e.g. the color I choose for LED 2 shows on LED 4 and vice versa (assuming LED 1 is the top-right corner LED). Is this an issue with my keyboard or an issue with the configurator?

Hi, I got this keyboard: Drop CTRL High-Profile Mechanical Keyboard
Switch Type: Halo True (60g Tactile) I get lots and lots of double characters - this is the only keyboard I've ever had that has done this. Any suggestions on how to correct the issue? Btw, I'm not a big fan of the switches, they seem to takke way too much force..

I was on the verge of buying my first Drop keyboard (CTRL-High Profile). After research I think I'm gonna buy the "Keychron Q3 Wired Custom Mechanical Keyboard Knob Version" instead for similar cost. Apart from the Drop KBs being outdated and overpriced, the Keychrons have Mac-oriented keycap labels.

My position is that I would not be looking at "250" vs "275" and be "agreeable" with the "keyboard section of the industry" if I (myself) am paying MORE for the "blue/brown" than (say, I'm given a very healthy dose/margin of error from the people who buy stuff on this site...) every other switch that has ever appeared on this website as available (...don't get me wrong... lol... it's not easy...). I own a keyboard with browns. I can list every switch or keyboard I own if I was (say) asked. Much like foregoing any logic for the sake of decades of experience. I am writing this on a day where I believe there is a set of "Alps" keycaps available for purchase on this website? Props.

keyboard seemed to be decent. I like the brown switches, rgb was bright. First drawback is the RGB is not as customizable as most would want. You can pick one of their standard animations or pick one solid color for each key. No option to change animation colors. Also, after a few minutes of use, my computer monitor went black and computer was not responsive. Only able to use computer after hours of trouble shooting without the keyboard installed. I will not be using this keyboard anymore because of the fear of destroying my computer.

I got one one Bay, guy had a mix of halo clear in the main section and blacks on the F keys and side modifiers. I see he had the band aid mod too. If you are that guy or gal let mem know what other mods you did?

Does this keyboard need to be assembled by itself? Can I use this keyboard directly?

Finally found out what to do with the other usb-c port. Another POWER SOURCE! The lights were kinda dim with just the once source going to the PC, however it is a 6-ft cable and I have not tested the amperage coming out of that port. Other than that, the keyboard feels like quality af. Perhaps a little more chamfer on the inside edges and better lighting on the sides. The lighting is non continuous which makes it look cheap.
