Keychron's Q1 Is the Perfect Introduction to Mechanical Keyboard Mods

You don't have to build this keyboard yourself, which makes it wonderful for beginners and enthusiasts alike.

Layout includes directional keys, kit comes with everything you need, keycaps and switches are swappable

Open source software is limited, no height adjustment available, aluminum build might be too heavy for some

Everything! (I know that’s a cop out) ; Heft and aesthetics are awesome ; No Bluetooth, no batteries, instant response and great typing experience ; Worth every penny!

You’ll definitely want a palm rest as it does sit up off the desk a bit

Keychron Q1 Review: Something Different, Something Great

Custom, hot-swappable QMK mechanical keyboard setting a high bar

+ Gasket-mount design ; + Solid build ; + Assembled version has well-lubed mechanical switches ; + Screw-in stabilizers ; + QMK/VIA support

- Top plate scratches easily when swapping switches ; - Louder than expected ; - Heavy

The Keychron Q1 brings premium keyboard enthusiast features, like a gasket-mounted design and open-source software, at an attainable price, setting a high bar.
