On May 17, 2023, Kopec Japan announced the official launch of the new Keychron K3 Pro.
In addition, the product lineup is also available in JIS (Japanese layout) for Japanese specifications, which is likely to be very popular.

JIS layout on Keychron K3 Pro
Now that the product is available from an authorized distributor, it is “Gikitei compliant” and can be used for wireless connection in Japan with peace of mind.
Of more interest, perhaps, is the JIS array lineup.
Like the regular Keychron K3, it has an irregular key layout with a horizontal row of arrow keys at the bottom right of the lowest row, but many Japanese will be very happy to be able to type with the same Japanese layout as a regular notebook computer.
