Lofree has announced the launch of the Flow 2 mechanical keyboard, a follow-up to the original Flow and Flow Lite models. The new version introduces several upgrades aimed at both mechanical keyboard enthusiasts and general users looking for a premium low-profile option. It retains the CNC-machined aluminum body seen in its predecessors, with two color options: Silver and Space Grey.
Lofree Flow 2 Specifications
The Flow 2 is available in three sizes: 68-key (65%), 84-key (75%), and 100-key (96%), allowing users to choose based on their desk space and typing preferences. Each layout is built with a full aluminum chassis and features a refined design for better portability and durability.
Lofree has introduced a new set of low-profile switches called the Cloud Series. These switches use POM material and are designed to let more LED light pass through. The company has enlarged the LED window by 3.2 times compared to the previous switches, aiming to improve backlight visibility in dim environments.
The Flow 2 keyboard now features a touch-sensitive bar on its right side that supports swipe gestures for adjusting volume and screen brightness. This new addition helps distinguish it from many other compact mechanical keyboards available in the market.
The keyboard includes VIA compatibility, allowing users to remap keys, assign macros, and customize the touch bar functions using the open-source configuration software. This marks a shift from the first-gen Flow, which lacked deep software customization.
In terms of connectivity, it supports Bluetooth 5.3, 2.4GHz wireless, and USB-C wired connectivity. Its USB-C port is located on the right side and comes with a right-angle adapter to help manage cables more efficiently, especially on crowded desks. It is compatible with macOS, Windows, and Linux systems.
Coming to the battery life, it reaches up to 40 hours on a single charge, depending on usage and lighting levels. The keyboard supports fast charging and can fully recharge in about three hours.
Pricing and Availability
Lofree has opened pre-orders for the Flow 2. The 68-key version starts at $89, the 84-key version is priced at $99, and the 100-key variant is available for $109. These prices are part of the VIP reservation program that allows early buyers to pay $1 to lock in the discounted rates.
