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 :/

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

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

Q6 Max Fan here ... The amount of issues people post about Keychron is generally constant and has not (imo) increased lately ... I've had no issues with Q6 Max (purchased from k's .com site last year) nor issues with their launcher or updating firmware from the launcher ... Happy to be considered lu

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

You can get a Keychron V5/Q5 MAX or a V6/Q6 MAX if you want a wireless keyboard. It'll last far longer than anything from Logitech. The V6/Q6 is a fullsize while the V5/Q5 is a compact-fullsize about the size of a TKL while still having the same amount of a keys as a fullsize. If you plan to use it

If you want portability and speed get the V6 max with red switches; If you want more feedback/positive weight to each keystroke and have a deeper sound out of the box go with a Q6Max and their Banana switches. I own a Q13 (red switch) and a V10 Max (banana switches with very similar alice setup). I

I jumped from a Razer black widow which I’ve been using since 2017 to Keychron Q6 Max last week, so my experience is v.limited but the look, feel, weight and sound of this board is so good. I game and code on it so I’m using it ~8-10 hours a day, not noticed any issues so far

You won't get decent prebuilt board with silent switches. Outemu Silent Tom or Keychron Silent Banana switches for $25-30 and a barebone board of your choosing. Keychron Q6 Max Knob barebone is $175 for example, or one of these: 100% boards with modern features (metal case, gasket mount, hotswap, QM

Keychron is usually the recommendation for full-size 'normal' keyboards. Either the Q MAX/ULTRA or V MAX series. The V6 Max or even Q6 Max/Ultra is probably what you would be looking for. Other recommendations would be the ND104 or DP104, maybe the QK101. At least the DP104 has an option for silent
