Product details

The Keychron Q8 is a high-quality mechanical keyboard in a 65% Alice layout. With its CNC-machined aluminum case, double-gasket design, QMK/VIA support, and knob option, the Q8 meets all practical requirements. The Alice layout is considered ergonomic, allowing users to position their wrists in a way that reduces muscle strain. All components are designed for easy assembly. A low-power Arm Cortex-M4 32-bit STM32L432 MCU, which is powerful and equipped with 128K Flash, offers more flexibility for developers. The Keychron Q8 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 experience with excellent sound.

The keyboard includes a system switch on the side for operating systems 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, the keyboard layout, or the backlighting. You can even write MACROS for custom key combinations that you desire on your Keychron Q8. The south-facing RGB SMD LED lighting is easy to see as it faces the user. The Gateron G Pro switches come factory-lubed and provide an excellent typing feel, complemented by the double-shot PBT keycaps in the OSA profile.
