The Lofree Flow 2 made me feel like a faster typist, but it also tested my patience
The Lofree Flow 2 gets the most important part of a keyboard wonderfully right, although some strange decisions make everything around the typing harder than necessary.
The Lofree Flow 2 keyboard left an impressive first impression with its solid aluminum construction and minimalist design. Typing on it felt effortless, as the keys required less effort to press and provided a more responsive feel without the usual dead sensation. Users reported a noticeable increase in typing speed, averaging 100 words per minute during testing.
However, the keyboard's design and features left some room for improvement. The touch-sensitive strip for controlling volume and screen brightness, while elegant in feel, was often forgotten even when in use. The placement of the 2.4GHz USB-C receiver on the side of the keyboard proved impractical, as it often got misplaced or accidentally triggered.
Additionally, the hot-swappable feature, while convenient for enthusiasts, required careful handling due to the delicate plastic clips on the low-profile switches. Despite these minor flaws, the Flow 2 competes with premium low-profile keyboards and offers a more refined typing experience than many other models at a similar price point.
