What customers like about Filco Majestouch Convertible 2 TKL

  • Excellent build quality; often described as 'built like a tank' or 'solid'
  • Versatile connectivity with both Bluetooth (up to 4 devices) and wired USB options
  • Uses high-quality, genuine Cherry MX mechanical switches
  • Long battery life (up to a year on 2x AA batteries)
  • Compact TKL (Tenkeyless) design saves desk space and improves ergonomics
  • Costar stabilizers provide a consistent, non-mushy typing feel
  • Understated, minimalist design with no distracting branding or LEDs

What customers don't like about Filco Majestouch Convertible 2 TKL

  • Standard ABS keycaps can become 'shiny' or have legends wear off over time
  • Occasional Bluetooth connectivity issues or lag reported with older Bluetooth versions
  • Known issues with dropping keystrokes when used with macOS in wired USB mode
  • Lack of 'modern' features like backlighting, dedicated media keys, or a USB hub
  • Micro-USB connection (rather than USB-C) is becoming dated
  • Cannot recharge batteries through the USB cable; batteries must be replaced or charged externally

Verdict

The Filco Majestouch Convertible 2 TKL is a high-end tenkeyless (87-key) mechanical keyboard featuring a hybrid design with Bluetooth 3.0 wireless and mini-USB wired connectivity. It is built with authentic Cherry MX switches (Brown, Blue, Black, or Red), Costar stabilizers, and a rigid steel plate-mounted construction for exceptional durability. Main pros include its multi-device pairing capability (up to 4 devices), hardware-level customization via DIP switches, and a long battery life of up to 6 months on two AA batteries. However, it lacks modern features like RGB backlighting and a USB-C port, uses thinner ABS keycaps that can develop a 'glossy' shine over time, and its Bluetooth 3.0 protocol is considered dated compared to newer wireless standards.
