Q9

Also got myself a Keychron as a gift to myself over the holidays. Really liking the Q9. A lot of Keychron's boards are quite simply overpriced, at their regular MSRP. But when they're on a deep sale I've found they're really solid. My wife has the V5—same layout as yours but in a plastic case—and sh

Ironically, Keychron is considered to be "basic" to a lot of people deep into the hobby. Not a great price-to-performance ratio (subjective, of course) and apparently they've had some QC issues in recent times that people feel aren't being addressed well enough. But in my experience (we have two in

Bought myself the Q9 this season, especially since it was dropped down to $55. I would've preferred the "Plus" version with the split spacebar, but worst case I'll get my own PCB manufactured; $55 was enough of a deal it's practically worth it for the case alone. Swapped in some HMX Firecracker swit

So I'll give you a few words on each. Hyper40: Probably my favorite but likely hard to find. You get to have two numpads and I mapped the layers so the numbers and cursor keys can be switched on both the left and right individually.MiniVan: A total classic and what might be the first major hit in th

Meh, every keyboard has its issues. I like to get a long warranty for any keyboards that feel pricey or risky so I know I'm covered. Amazon and eBay both offer them and they're affordable. I havent had any issues with the Q or V keyboards from keychron. I have a Q1, Q9, and V7 (which is my favorite

Epomaker makes 40% keyboard for cheap and I've seen them do 50% sales just randomly on some of their keyboards, but if you want a better product you can look into keychron q9, looks sexy as hell

Keychron used to be pretty good (I have two wired only q6s, a q9 and a k10 pro with zero issues) but new models (Max mainly) are just so unreliable... that's why everyone says if you get a Keychron, get it from Amazon or local shops. Otherwise the suck is horrible if you have problems. Perhaps the n

My favorite office keyboards are: Crush 80 Beta Pro with stock switches and aluminum plate. It's got a muted Thock that is smooth and comfy to type on. Neo70 with carbon fiber plate and Milky Yellow Pro V2 switches. I love this configuration so much, I'd be willing to solder the board and never thin

I’ll second that suggestion. I am a keyboard modder and own multiple keyboards. If you are just going down the rabbit hole of keebs, definitely check out the Keychron K2 HE. It looks gorgeous, feels absolutely delicious and sounds heavenly when you type on it. It is definitely worth the price, but w

I say that because the q9 seemed like an answer looking for a question. Dropping the number row and going into 40 world normally means you are going for a compact tight motion profile with as little hand motion and finger spread as possible. The q9 however keeps pretty much a standard 60ish width an
