Keychron

The Keychron Q1 is a premium full-metal keyboard where every switch, keycap, stabilizer, and even every plate can be customized individually. It is designed to create an exceptional typing experience through extensive personalization.

The Keychron Q1 features a CNC-machined 6063 aluminum case that undergoes 24 processes, including polishing, anodizing, and sandblasting. The gasket-mounted design provides a pleasant, flexible typing feel with excellent sound. The maximum flex of the Q1 is up to 2.5 mm.

The keyboard includes a toggle switch for the operating system and an additional set of custom keycaps for both Windows and macOS systems.

Thanks to full QMK and VIA support, you can easily program and remap every key on the keyboard. With the open-source VIA firmware, you can define any key, keyboard layout, or backlighting. You can even create macros for custom key combinations that you desire on your Keychron Q1. VIA supports macOS, Windows, and Linux.

The hot-swappable PCB supports both 3-pin and 5-pin mechanical MX switches. The Q1 includes Gateron screw stabilizers that provide stability and smoothness. The screw design also allows compatibility with a wide range of other stabilizers.

The south-facing RGB SMD LED lighting is easy to see as it faces the user. The Phantom Switches, developed in collaboration with Gateron, come factory-lubed and provide an excellent typing feel, complemented by the double-shot ABS keycaps.

The 80% format rationalises the numeric keypad and offers more space on the desk.

The 60 per cent keyboard lacks everything to the right of the Enter key as well as the row of function keys.
