V1

You don't need software for any mechanical keyboard unless you want to change the configuration or layout. If the keyboard is QMK you can configure it from Chrome or Edge using usevia.app and possibly a JSON configuration file. Small to large QMK boards: 60%: Redragon K717 Pro * ($30) CIDOO QK61 * ($6

Re "The firmware change log said it "1. Fixed key double press issue caused by snap action."": It isn't clear if that is really the reason For doubling down on treating the symptoms, Keychron has also at the same time changed the default key debounce time from the already high 20 ms to a whopping 50

I've tried a couple of mechanical keyboards and just couldn't get on with them. One was a Keychron V1 Max!

Yeah I find this to be the case for most boards especially the Chinese ones (including the good ones) that have flooded the market. They just do not care about the software. There is no reason to expect tri-mode to not work. One of the things these large corporations do have for their keyboards, is

I had the V1 for 4 years. First the keys started chattering after only 7 months. Then the usb connector turned loose even tho I barely unplugged the cable.

EPOMAKER x Aula F75, 75% Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Not QMK, and you should probably avoid buying through Epomaker because they're kind of dodgy. Royal Kludge R87 Pro Wireless Mechanical Keyboard If you get the QMK version this is rather nice. The iLoveBee B87 is basically the same board in

Stick to QMK boards that use VIA or VIAL for configuration. Yunzii has several of these. 60%: Redragon K717 Pro * ($30) CIDOO QK61 * ($60) Skyloong GK61 QMK/VIA * ($54) Royal Kludge RK61 QMK/VIA * ($40) Womier WK61 Pro * ($31) YMDK DK61 * ($88 barebones, wooden case) KBDcraft Adam 60% * ($70 lego case) 65

Re "am I the only one having issues with the V1 Max?": No, you are not. Here is an example of four bad keyboards in a row(!!!). That was for a V6 Max. For V1 Max: V1 Max - key doubling issue. Failed after a few weeks. #15 Keychron warranty support no response - need help!. Double-typing keys for a V

It sounds like Keychron has goofed up. It seems to be a trend for the older wired-only V series and Q series: Q7 in Keychron Launcher: "No Valid HID Device Configuration Found". Via also works fine I keep getting a banner saying "No Valid HID Device Configuration Found". For a V3. "No Valid HID Devi
