With a seamless user experience, including multiple connectivity options, hot-swappable switches, and a refined double-gasket design, this keyboard delivers an unparalleled typing journey.

Premium Build and Craftsmanship

The Keychron Q1 Max features a full aluminum body made from high-quality 6063 aluminum, carefully CNC machined and polished for a sleek finish. Its solid construction, backed by a 1724g weight, provides durability and a luxurious feel, making it an excellent choice for those who appreciate fine craftsmanship.

Exceptional Acoustic Design

This keyboard takes the typing experience to the next level with a combination of high-end acoustic foams, such as IXPE, PET, and Latex, which work together to reduce sound resonance and offer a richer, more satisfying sound profile. Coupled with the flexible gasket design and PC plate, each keystroke feels smooth and enjoyable.

Customizable Keycaps for Every Preference

The Keychron Q1 Max offers two keycap options:

• KSA Keycaps: Designed ergonomically, perfect for long typing sessions.
• OSA Side-Printed Shine-Through Keycaps: These provide a stunning backlight shine-through effect while being less distracting.

The double-shot PBT keycaps ensure superior durability and prevent fading, ensuring that the legends remain clear for years of use.

Advanced Connectivity Options

Equipped with both 2.4 GHz wireless and Bluetooth 5.1, the Keychron Q1 Max offers seamless connectivity for up to three devices, such as computers, tablets, and smartphones. The keyboard supports 1000Hz polling rate on wireless and wired modes, providing virtually no latency, making it an ideal choice for both productivity and competitive gaming.

QMK/VIA Support and Customization

For users who enjoy full customization, the Keychron Q1 Max supports QMK firmware, which allows for complete remapping of keys, macros, and shortcuts. The Keychron Launcher web app makes it easy to program and personalize your keyboard settings.

Long-Lasting Battery Life

With a 4000mAh rechargeable battery, the Q1 Max can last up to 180 hours with the backlight off, and up to 100 hours with RGB lighting at the lowest brightness. This ensures long-lasting performance for users who rely on extended usage.
