A lovely board from Beekeeb, cannot recommend them enough. By far the best service I’ve had. Leo is incredible. The original right now uses TRRS. He is working on this version right now too.

    In my previous main keyboard the halves were connected using USB-C. However, I’ve currently switched to a piantor with TRRS.

    I really liked the idea of USB-C: same connector everywhere, more data lines and no risk of short circuit during connect/disconnect. In practice soldering USB-C connectors was not easy for me, I encountered continuous issues and had to resolder them multiple times.

    While my soldering skills are not great, I can reliably solder TRRS. I prefer having a reliable connection even though I have to pay attention to connecting and disconnecting it when the keyboard is not plugged in.

    Just sharing my experience, I wish I could solder USB-C connectors reliably.
