Keychron Q1

The Keychron Q1 is a high-quality full-metal keyboard, where every switch, keycap, stabilizer, and even every plate can be customized individually. It is designed to create an outstanding 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 the board with a pleasant, flexible typing feel and excellent sound. The maximum flex of the Q1 is up to 2.5 mm.

The keyboard includes a switch for operating system selection 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 firmware VIA, you can define any key, the keyboard layout, or the backlighting. It is even possible to write macros for custom key combinations. VIA supports macOS, Windows, and Linux.

The hot-swappable PCB supports both 3-pin and 5-pin mechanical MX switches. The Q1 comes with 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 offer an excellent typing feel, complemented by the double-shot ABS keycaps.
