Should I buy the MX Mechanical now or wait for a refresh?

I just switched from this to Keychron Q6 Max brown and it’s night a day quality difference / build quality. I’m loving the Keychron.

Best full size?

I have zero issues with Keychron Q6 (manufactured in 2022, before their QC problems began). Unfortunately all Q non-Max models are out of production since 2022, apparently :/

What is wrong with 100% layouts? Looking for a new keyboard and ....

There is nothing wrong with them they are just a waste of space for most people. I use a 75% because it looks much nicer, gives my desk more room and I've never used any of the keys that aren't on a 75%. And I use them for gaming and IT work. Custom 100% boards pop up every once in a while but if bo

100% with knob is my preference as well. Add macro keys and ISO, and you have exactly one manufacturer with decent products (well, sort of what with their 2024 QC problems): Keychron. Yeah, M5 - no knob, Qk101 - no knob, less keys, two screens (?). So, Keychron it is. V6 Max, Q6 Max, Q6 HE are all w

Hot Take: My Keychron keyboards have been great

I have the older, regular mechanical Q6 Max and just got the new HE spin on it. You can tell Keychron has improved the design as they're effectively the same KB chassis but the HE variant has much better insulation design and the control slider switches don't rattle. And a side benefit as there's no

Nuphy sent me a broken keyboard, now wants me to buy a second keyboard

As someone who bought a keychron keyboard 4 years ago... that thing was hot dog-water. I did however just get a Q6 max and baby they really started to cook. This thing rules, barely had to do any mods out of the box. They really upped their game

Worst big brands to buy keyboards from

Enthusiast circles really have a bone to pick with Keychron, though I never fully understood why. I'm not knee-deep in the super-boutique or DIY scenes, but the couple Keychron boards I do own (a K6 for travel/around the house, a Q6 Max at my desk) I've been perfectly happy with. I've always likened

There is nothing wrong with Keychron. They are not flashy, but they are fine. I tried a V4; I helped a coworker build his Q6 Max; and another coworker has two Keychron keyboards (one for home and one for the office) that he is very happy with. I would avoid any manufacturers on the QMK license viola
