CMKB Profile: Obins Anne Pro

Obins Anne Pro, in black

Obins Anne Pro, usually known just as Anne Pro, was funded via a Chinese campaign similar to KickStarter. There is actually a regular Anne as well, but it is wired only and nobody cared.  It is completely standard ANSI 61 key, with Gateron switches, Bluetooth 4.0, PBT keycaps, and RGB backlight with a launch price for well under $100 USD.  It also has a matching control app (Android or iOS) that lets you control the lighting patterns and key layouts.

You can find this keyboard in either black or white editions. When initially launched, Obins launched several case bottoms of alternate colors. However, they only seem to be available in China and in the hands of some exporters. There are group buys of aluminum case bottoms periodically.  There are also "upgraded" editions where sellers upgrade the battery and replace the stabilizers for better key feel. But those are only on Taobao.

It comes with a cable for charging and connectivity, a Bluetooth dongle, and a keypuller.

Before You Buy

There are reports of the battery failure due to it not being properly secured inside the case. Also, Anne Pro is not compatible with "generic" 60% keyboard cases. You need the Obins cases for these keyboards.
