Guys did I get scammed? Got this Ducky one 3 pro for 50 bucks on sale
It's fine, but theyre just okay boards. For $50 id say you got it damn good at that price, but there's just better boards out there. I mean, for $150 you can get top of the line and thats what that keyboard goes for off sale, so why get a B tier decent keyboard when you can get top tier at that pric

What’s going on with Keychron?
So I have several older Keychron keyboards (Q, Q Pro and V series). I've had almost no problems with them with the exception of one original model Q5 that had a hot swap socket connector pop off the rear of the PCB (which potentially was my fault when replacing switches on it as I've swapped switche

Why all the hate for Keychron?
Got a Q1 HE. About half a year in I got random key presses, sent it back, got a new one. A month in, the same thing happened. Definitely not a switch issue, as it happened even with the switches removed. I’m on my third one just because I love the look and feel of it, but won’t be buying any new Key

NuPhy killer or nah?
Depends on what you value I guess. My €130 Nuphy Halo 2 IO feels and sounds much better than my €225 Keychron Q1 Max... and the Nuphy doesn't have rattling stabs.

Feeling just ducky today
I love this! Yellow is my favorite color and I also work in commercial offset printing so I usually have my keyboards and caps in CMKY colorway. I bought the Keychron Q1 QMK in yellow back in 2024 and it's the perfect color of yellow but I have never gotten that board to sound like I want it to. I'v

Terminus v2
The keyboard looks similar to the Keychron Q1, but might be wrong there. The display looks to have been taken out of something, so might be a bit harder to source.

I know what features I want to buy, but I find the Keychron website completely incomprehensible and overwhelming
Yeah, I agree. I have a few Keychron boards, but came very close to just ignoring the brand completely due to the convoluted mess that is their different keyboard lines. I'll try to simplify a bit...Q is metal enthusiast boardsV is plastic enthusiast boardsK is a more all-around lineC is the cheapes

If I want a single keycap printed for the 'ctrl' button on a keychron q1 max, what are my purchasing options/
the q1 max doesn't actually have an integral 'end' key and its very difficult for me to write without one. Ah. Yes, I have the same problem. This is why I got the J2 rather than the V1 or Q1. Or you could go with the Monsgeek M1 or the Kiiboom Loop75 or any of the other complete exploded 75% boards

Keychron Q1 HE vs Wooting 80HE for gaming
8k polling vs 1k polling is the greatest lie they've ever sold. There is a difference of like 3ms which is unnoticeable and not worth the price (per rtings tests). Also lemokey p1 he is the same as the keychron q1 he but cheaper and less mac compatibility.

Keychron Q1 HE 8K vs SU75 PRO / IROK MG75 PRO/MAX/V2
Absolute no brainer. su75 pro any day. Skip keychron completely. Irok mg75 V2 is a good choice in terms of performance but it's not a big difference from su75 pro in tests (at least not something a human can notice as much). Stability, feel, build quality and most importantly software matters way mo
