Lofree Flow Lite Review: Affordable Alternative or Not?

The Lofree Flow Lite is here to challenge the status quo of budget mechanical keyboards. As someone who's been exploring the world of mechanical keyboards, transitioning from the Lofree Flow 100 to the Flow Lite has been an intriguing experience. The Flow Lite, available in an 84-key and 100-key layout, offers many of the features found in its premium sibling but at a more accessible price point.
While the Flow Lite sacrifices the aluminum chassis of the Flow 100 for a plastic build, it still delivers a satisfying typing experience. With shine-through keycaps, wireless connectivity, a volume rocker, and other essential features, it’s designed to be an affordable yet competent option for both work and play. However, there are some trade-offs-like the absence of tactile switch options and the lighter, less premium feel-that may make you think twice.
Before this, I've tried various mechanical keyboards, including the NuPhy Air 96 V2 ua-cam.com/video/CBRPevxrUT8/v-deo.html, Keychron K17 Pro ua-cam.com/video/i8U0D5HzOCw/v-deo.html, and even the original Lofree Flow 100 ua-cam.com/video/mkixl-OG0ic/v-deo.html. Each had its strengths, but none offered the same blend of features and value as the Flow Lite. If you’re in the market for a budget-friendly mechanical keyboard that doesn’t compromise on essential features, the Flow Lite might just be what you need.

Do you think the white ABS plastic body will turn yellow over time?
Ya never know. These are the dangers of kickstarters. Not enough time to review these things.
Excellent review! Love my lofree flow but am definitely picking up the lite100 with hades switches for work!
Nice. Good choice :) what color?
@@TristanPope I wish they had a black color to match my other work devices but I think white although the pink is cool. Followup question, how do the keycaps feel? Are they similar to the flow material? They have a particular feel that I absolutely love!
@@echo021they aren’t. They are more plastic. But that is to be expected with shine through.
I JUST BOUGHT THE LOWFREE FLOW 5 DAYS AGO WTF.
You won't regret it tbh. Unless you must have the shine throughs.
Which do you like the best? Full Video: ua-cam.com/video/ZnFDDWlixnI/v-deo.html LoFree Flow 100 Linear Keyboard : amzn.to/4djkrRx LoFree Flow 100 Tactile Keyboard : amzn.to/3A9wXVj
Wow
Wow good?
Yes!
does the HADES fit in the lofree flow boards?
Indeed they do.
@@TristanPope what does that sound like?
@@m4mbr4silence. 😂
@@TristanPope is there any way you can do a reel with the hades in the flow?
@@m4mbr4 it’s the exact same. Those switches are literally silent. The only difference would be the specter in the flow. But even that is about a 10% margin of difference.
Where can i order/preorder the lofree flow lite? Now i want to try these !
Kickstarter.
The silent switches and backlighting are awesome! I might forgive this 100% layout this time. :)
Yeah this one is pretty damn gorgeous lighting. The silent switches are super unique as well. I like Kailh switches very much.
is this video flipped horizontally?
yup :P mistakes were made
Oh dammmnnnn SOUND TEST RIGHT OFF THE BAT! I got you :) What do you think of the Lite? LoFree Flow 100 Linear Keyboard ⌨: amzn.to/4djkrRx LoFree Flow 100 Tactile Keyboard ⌨: amzn.to/3A9wXVj
10:25 The Aeron Dominatrix. New from HM. "You deserve to be punished for your ergonomic sins."
LOL
do you think this is the end of the journey for keyboard seraching? if it is, then i'll buy Q6 as well :)
I actually have the Q3 and Q0 coming for the split layout from the num pad. That and a Hall effect keyboard too. So if that feels right on the desk who knows probably? Haha. It’s a rabbit hole!! But this one is def an amazing choice that anyone would be happy with as end game.
@@TristanPope Thanks for the reply, and as you have mentioned in the video, you're not going back to the low profile anymore? :O the HE keyboards (wooting, etc) seems to give you that fast typing response with modifiable acctuation point, so you dont have to press the key down as much which is sort of what low profile keyboards lovers like... just a thought
@@JINNY-dl5ykyup def have an HE on the way. Yeah for travel low profile for home this keyboard is butter and just a pleasure to use.
@@TristanPope Yea I took your advice and ordered Keychron Q1 HE (wooting version without the keypad). Thanks for the video and i'm subscribing now+like!
@@JINNY-dl5yk Can't go wrong with that. But I have the K2 HE on the way. www.keychron.com/pages/keychron-k2-he-landing-page?ref=craftingworlds
have you tried Corsair K100 AIR
Yes and I did not like it. Price and feel.
Not all keyboards are perfect (not just sure why Lofree and Nuphy didn't attempt to consider this unique compact layout though). If I were to choose, I would still keep K17 Pro since there's always a workaround with everything. After discovering Gateron Chocolate switches and have them lubed, I got rid of this metallic sounding thing around this keyboard haha. Now my next target is where can I find silent switches. By the way, not sure if you will consider reviewing some standard switch-keyboard again, as I got myself a James Donkey RS2 version 4 which comes with smooth gaming-oriented Kailh switches, with similar layout to K17 Pro. I replaced it with the China-popular Jerrzi Honey bean silent switches which is truly fantastic for office typing.
More to come Keychron Q6 Max Review - IT'S END GAME ua-cam.com/video/WdRSvDC3D7c/v-deo.html
Nice review and feedback with Lofree keyboard! Just for my case, my top priority right now was this unique layout that I can only find in Keychron K17 Pro where I needed 3 keys for Delete/Home/End and Full Zero keys. Topped with Gateron Chocolate switches then I'm ready to go. The layout was the only reason I have to let go of my Lofree100 and Nuphy Air96.
I understand.
Naw you are 100% right man. I have been on a chair hunt and literally bought and returned every god damn "high end" chair there is that was reviewed greatly and they were all GARBAGE. Literally ended up dealing with the price and ordered the embody.
Sorry. It’s rough out there for sure.
These moss switches sound wonderful, very similar to the Lofree Flow indeed. It seems that you installed o-rings on them or taped the keyboard. From the videos I have watched so far, it sounds better than the Air 75 V2 with the same switches.
I did no mods. All mics will pickup sound different.
for those keycaps, you'd want a keyboard that has south facing led's.. what you have there are north facing leds combined with south facing key caps.
The leds are actually south facing leds.
@@TristanPope oh my bad... would it be right of me to say the pcb has south facing leds, the switches are north facing, and the key caps are south shine through? if so, thats just bad on keychron's part.
@@gregg582so I spoke with Keychron and they even agree they can increase the RGB output. The switches are south. The rgb is south. But the dispersion just isn’t strong enough for those caps.
It's f$$$ing good, but it is f$$$ing expensive too!
Honestly for what it offers. I don’t find the price to be that bad. I’ll tell ya why: logitechs keyboard when I bought it was 259$ more than this and made of all plastic and broke often. No way to fix it. This is made of Thor’s hammer. And should last a VERY long time. Now that being said, I find the prices of most things these days to be out of this world. So yes even this which in the “market” is priced very well, in terms of what it used to be, it’s insane. Keyboards used to cost 10$ and 50$ max for a good one. So I feel ya.
I am pretty sure that there’s how to pronounce Nuphy on it’s box. I mean there’s Nuphy’s phonetic on the box which is /ˈnju:fɪ/
So... You have pretty much ONLY good things to say to a point where it seems like this is the best keyboard you ever held in your hands but because it sounds a little off you're saying people shouldn't buy it? To me the keyboard genuinely sounds the EXACT same to most mechanical keyboards. Also you mention they should just get Gaterons (11:35) but for me Gateron are literally the only option I can get for the keyboard. I'm sorry if I sound mean but I'm trying to research the next keyboard I'm getting and this review honestly just confuses me more than helping.
@@feuerstern3001 the keyboard doesn’t feel good for typing and the sound is bad as well. All other keyboards I’ve tried felt good and sounded good that I mentioned. This one was not a good experience. I liked the layout and the design that’s it. The big important thing: typing experience was horrible. Even slowed my typing down. Hope that sums it up better.
@@TristanPope Yes that helps thanks you! From the video it seemed like the sound was your main gripe not the typing experience. However I'm still a bit confused on you mentioning they should get switches from Gateron but those are the only switches I can select on the website. Did they change the switches between your review and now or am I not understanding something correct?
@@feuerstern3001so we started with the normal gateron browns. Which sadly were horrible. They sent me Keychron bananas. Which were even worse. Overall Keychron has been amazing with this and I’m not in love with their full size, see my latest video and a few videos to come. But yeah both the low profile gaterons and keychrons were bad compared to the ones offered by say Nuphy. They have an older version. I am very new to this so I can def see how my words can be confusing and u apologize. I hope to get better as I learn more :) but honestly for someone who wants a low profile that just works… it kinda says it all in spades on how this didn’t haha. Appreciate ya keeping me honest!
I think the flaw for some other people are the sounds. But for my case, I can still take that for as long as I am able to achieve the layout that I badly needed for work (K17 Pro layout) -- also a note to myself: work is my priority right now :D Also, I can switch between my Cowberry linears (if I feel I need that smooth typing), or lubed Gateron Chocolate tactiles (if I need to get serious this time) For the "flawed" sound, I pretty much reduced that by adding some bouncy feet (bought from a shop online) to this keyboard, without opening the keyboard, so I can place it on my laptop when typing. For the knob, I don't have major issues with that since I can turn it by using one finger even if it a bit stiff. I think some people missed to check out the K17 Max which is the improved version of this.
@@andrewcatubig9239it is indeed an improved version of it.
I have 2 Q6 Max Keyboards (1 black and 1 white) I find the rgb backlight bright enough for my use (admittedly my work environment is sorta dark). Thanks for the great review.
You’re very welcome! Do you have the front shine through caps? And what switches? I’m learning that perhaps the switches do not disperse the rgb well enough into the keys. And yeah I’m not in the dark ever thanks to monitor lights haha. But I get ya. It wouldn’t be bad at all except these front facing caps. I have the Q3 on the way in white. So stay tuned. I’ll check it out in more depth with different keys.
@@TristanPope Yes my black one has the south facing legends. And I did an experiment last night. I made it as bright as possible in the room where the computer is located was able to see the legends perfectly (the rgb was perfectly legible) And I have the red switches
@@oceanwillows Awesome :)
You can’t go back 🤣🤣😭 that’s so true haha ❤
I’m so deep down the rabbit hole now it is not even funny. 😂
good vid!
Thank you :)
I picked one up surplus and I agree with your complaints (6'1", 185lb) The armrests are terrible (no cushion) and I just started getting tailbone pain after using it for just under a month. I also experienced the lumbar support slipping, you can find other videos of this. You lift it up and it immediately slips down. I end up using it with the back slightly leaned back to overcome some of the issues you point out, like the feeling of being pushed out of the chair It's looking like I'm probably going to pick up an Aeron from a surplus dealer. Seems like a lot of youtube reviewers (and the guy I bought it from) really like this chair, but after actually using it I am not impressed!
Adding this to my wishlist for sure.
Good choice!
Honestly, I wasn't sold on mechanical keyboards either, until this vid. Thank you
Me either! ahhaa, you're welcome!
This is exactly the type of thock I’ve been searching for! Ordered mine right after watching. Thanks, Tristan!
haha very Yoda.
This keyboard takes me back to the old days when typing actually felt good.
BACK IN THE GOOD OLE DAYS!! GET OFF MY LAWN!
as someone who types all day for work this q6 max looks like a dream may have to get one myself
Nice how has it held up for ya? I feel like this would last through an apocolypse even if used as a weapon.
Q6 Max sounds THOCKY AF! 🔥 Definitely upgrading my setup next month.
SUPER THOCKY but like a light thock I appreciate. Hope you love it!
im convinced, my next keyboard is def gonna be the q6 max thx for the review
You're very welcome!
wow i got the q6 max last week n it really does sound that thocky 🤯 cant stop typin on it
NICE! Keychron clan!
lol i never knew what thocky meant until this
hahahahah I was there in the beginning too.

Stay tuned as I dive deeper into this rabbit hole, and let me know what keyboards you’re using in the comments below!
Still on a chair journey myself, is this the one you have settled on?
This indeed is where I landed. Very happy too.
@@TristanPope nice cheers for the quick reply. I'll have to see if I can find a decent priced one with good warranty in the uk
This worked perfectly!! I messed two screws up though (my mistake) so I'm going to order new ones but everything else is okay because of this vid!
Glad it helped ya! Feel free to grab me a coffee ;P support.craftingworlds.com
I know it's nuts expensive but I'd love to hear your thoughts on the gaming embody...
Be great if they sent me one haha.
@@TristanPope you don’t happen to live close to a showroom do you? I’m also tall and thinking of moving on from my current “gaming chair”. Most of the reviewers are much shorter than I am so not sure what to do. Now that HM doesn’t have free returns I don’t want to take a leap without more info on it
I'm also looking for something to replace a broken Apple USB Magic keyboard. But for me loudness is super important as I use the keyboard even at night. Which one is louder, the mechanical or the old Apple ones?
Honestly the Lofree is the quietest I’ve reviewed. EVERYTHING will be louder than a scissor switch apple keyboard. But this one has the best sound.
@@TristanPope Thanks! It seems I'll stick to Apple but I'll keep an eye on this one. I'm so not used to buying keyboards I didn't even notice I need an ISO keyboard not an ANSI like this one 🙈
@@zsolt7097 Yeah it is a deeeeep dark rabbit hole! But subscribe for more! I am in it!! haha
Tbh even the new Embody's with extra padding is also a complete joke especially at the price. You will feel the plastic being forced into ur back, they say its lumbar support but cmon lol, its just horrible. Def cant recommend the Embody. Tried the Aeron and it was better but havnt daily driven it like i have Embody.
@@ArthurTheLegend420 this is where I landed and they are working with atlas to make a headrest! ua-cam.com/video/DkAwxvL4008/v-deo.htmlsi=qBqS7O4wwiZCZLuv
Might be worth trying the Embody but OMG the price
@@MartinOlminkhof landed on this ua-cam.com/video/DkAwxvL4008/v-deo.htmlsi=qBqS7O4wwiZCZLuv And with the partnership with atlas head rests this is my end game for now.
USE ALL OF YOUR FINGERS! The other 3 on your right hand aren't there for decoration.
Just like I told my teachers back in the day, no. But thanks for your opinion, which is like an a$$hole, everyone has one :)
